A collection of four character pieces Op. 119 composed four years before Brahms’ death constitutes his last work written for solo piano. What he wrote to Clara Schumann about the opening Intermezzo: ‘Every bar and every note must sound like ritardando\, as if one wanted to suck out melancholy out of each and every note\, lustily […]’ shines a bright light on the poetic and personal content of these works. After a rubato driven and fleeting Arabesque\, the audience is treated to a spellbinding display of virtuosity in Schumann’s early Opus 13. The Symphonic Etudes with all of their technical demands and dramatically interwoven outbursts of Schumann’s conflicting personality\, are a testament of the composer’s investigation into the possibilities of achieving orchestral timbre on the piano and his experimentation with textures and colours.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[AIGetTwitterFeeds ai_username='PianoWeekFest' ai_numberoftweets='3' ai_tweet_title='Your Title']
