  • Description

    Clarinettist Nicolai Pfeffer and pianist Felix Wahl present an album of works by Brahms: Sonata for Clarinet and Piano Nos. 1 & 2, Op.120 and Four Piano Pieces Op.119.



    "With Opp. 119 und 120, this album brings together the last solo piano work and the last chamber work composed by Brahms. These two genres played a major role in his output and in these pieces, one can easily hear that Brahms is drawing a finishing stroke. Their respective structures contrast as much as possible with one another – extended sonatas vs. short pieces – thereby offering us a glimpse into the inexhaustible universe of a composer's entire life. Placed between the two monumental sonatas, the piano intermezzos offer the listener a breather for introspection and contemplation." (The Artists)
