About

Johannes Brahms undoubtedly embodies the quintessence of late Romanticism, and listeners will enjoy discovering or renewing acquaintance with the German Requiem, the Fourth Symphony, two towering concertos for piano (no.1) and violin, and a host of other superb pieces.

An extensive illustrated booklet contains full notes on all the works in the programme, and collectors will appreciate the elegance and sturdiness of the box sets, which will become an indispensable acquisition for curious music-lovers.

The characteristic of true geniuses is that after them things are never quite the same again. A collection exclusively devoted to the great geniuses of music, we proudly present the ‘Portrait’ series.
