The result is \"a delightful mixture of classical form clothed in the multicolored hues of German romanticism.\" (John Gillespie, \u003ci\u003eFive Centuries of Keyboard Music\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003cbr\u003eBrahms's masterful synthesis of these disparate elements: his inventive rhythmic drive and happy fusion of poetry and sound workmanship are strikingly evidenced in the concerti. Although he wrote only four -- two for piano, one for violin, and one double concerto for violin and cello -- they have all become absolute staples of the concert repertoire. Because they are for different instruments, however, they have rarely been available together in one convenient volume -- until now. This Dover edition reproduces all four concerti directly from Breitkopf and H rtel's definitive \u003ci\u003eS mtliche Werke, \u003c\/i\u003e Volumes 5 and 5, c. 1920-27. The original editor's commentary by Hans Gal is included both in German and in English.\u003cbr\u003eThe four concerti are Piano Concerto No. 1 in D Minor, Op. 15; Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat Major, Op. 83; Violin Concerto, Op. 77; and Concerto for Violin and Cello, Op. 102.\u003cbr\u003eWith this single low-priced volume, students, composers, and musicologists may savor Brahms's development in the form (extending over three decades, 1845-87). Conductors and librarians will have a handy, inexpensive, complete collection, and musicians and music lovers will find a way to experience the inexhaustible variety of one of music's great masters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dover Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780486241708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.16h x 9.32w x 0.73d","brand":"Johannes Brahms","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637677093020,"sku":"9780486241708","price":29.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_c2a747c5-03f6-4e95-a9c2-dc670bded203.jpg?v=1603845409","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/complete-concerti-in-full-score-9780486241708","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
