{"product_id":"brahms-sonatas-for-violin-piano-urtext","title":"Brahms - Sonatas for Violin\/piano Urtext","description":"Brahms early on engaged with the violin sonata genre. As early as 1853 he wrote a sonata in a minor, which - like so many other youthful works of this self-critical composer - no longer survives. Thus the G-major sonata op. 78, written in 1878\/79, is now counted as his first contribution to the genre; it has the nickname \"Regenlied Sonata\" (literally \"rain-song sonata\") because of the quotation from a song that appears in the finale. In summer 1886 Brahms composed, almost simultaneously, the two sonatas op. 100 and 108. All three works now have a firm place in the violinistic canon. \u003cbr\u003eWe round off our volume with the Scherzo in c minor that Brahms contributed to the so-called \"F.A.E Sonata\", which he composed together with Robert Schumann and Albert Dietrich as a gift for violinist Joseph Joachim in 1853. With its stark contrast between the turbulent allegro and the emotional piu moderato part, his scherzo has become a popular bravura and encore piece. \u003cbr\u003eThe present new edition is based on the New Brahms Complete Edition, and offers a musical text and commentary that have been revised according to the latest research. The fingering is by respective masters of their instruments Frank Peter Zimmermann and Martin Helmchen.","brand":"G.
