Johannes Brahms

Released by: Naxos Records Album Title: Brahms: A German Requiem Catalogue number: 8.572996 Release date: July 29, 2013 Marin Alsop | Anna Lucia Richter, soprano | Stephan Genz, baritone | Leipzig MDR Radio Symphony Chorus and Orchestra From its disappointing initial reception, misunderstood and under-rehearsed in Vienna in 1867, Brahms's A German Requiem (the composer, in a letter, once substituted 'human' for 'German') has since become known as one of the most powerfully charged such works in the canon. It was almost certainly the death of Brahms's mother in 1865 that triggered his desire to write such a work. But it avoids overt Christian references, thus differing profoundly from conventional liturgical Latin Requiems, and remains deeply rooted in the tradition of Bach and Sch&#xFC;tz.

Brahms: A German Requiem | Ihr Habt Nun Traurigkeit | Marin Alsop [Naxos: 8.572996]

Six Piano Pieces, Op.118: Intermezzo ll (Johannes Brahms)

French pianist Hélène Grimaud has done what few have dared try-- record both Brahms Piano Concertos No. 1 (performed live with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra), and No. 2 (performed with the Vienna Philharmonic). It’s her personal Everest, after first discovering the romance and drama of  No. 1 as a young girl, and combining it with No. 2, a decidedly different and evolved piece. Grimaud discusses the events of Brahms’ life in conjunction with these two masterpieces.

Quatuor Voce
Lise Berthaud, viola

After its first two recordings, devoted to Schubert then Beethoven, highly praised and recommended by the critics (both ffff in Télérama, recommended by The Strad...), this eclectic, innovative quartet is now celebrating its tenth anniversary by tackling the string quintets of Mozart and Brahms.
These two scores, representative of the culmination of a career in the case of Brahms and, for Mozart, the end of a life, are sustained by vigorous inspiration and frothing energy.
Whereas the Brahms Quintet, both brilliant and highly moving, recalls some of his best-known themes (including that of the Sextet, Op. 18, used by Louis Malle in his film The Lovers), Mozart jotted down on paper the four movements of a work that speaks intensely about him, in the diversity of its moods and the complexity of its writing.
Named ‘Rising Star’ for the last season by the European Chamber Hall Organisation, the Voce Quartet has performed in venues the world over. For this project, it calls on Lise Berthaud, one of the most brilliant French violists, to round out the quintet.

The American pianist Julius Katchen was a child prodigy who at age 11 performed with the Philadelphia Orchestra under Ormandy. In 1946 Katchen toured Europe, settling in Paris in late 1947 and became a frequent performer on the European concert platform. Katchen made a major study of Brahms during his career and this 1967 live broadcast of Brahms Piano Concerto No.1, with the distinguished German conductor Rudolf Kempe, reflects his deep understanding of this composer. This recording gives the collector the rare opportunity of hearing Katchen ‘live’ in comparison to his studio account made much earlier in 1959.

Brahms: Concerto For Violin, Cello & Orchestra In A Minor, Op. 102

"One of the many fascinating aspects of this work is that, for all the depth and gravity of its great message, it is full of the vitality, passion and ardour of the young man Brahms was when he wrote it. And what a difficult balance it is to reach in interpretation. It would be hard to mention a favourite moment, because the incredible emotional, dramatic power of the piece keeps us on the edge of our seats with all our senses involved from the very beginning. I feel so deeply shaken by the orchestral exposition that I often find it difficult to start the first solo".
