Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

In this analytical study of eighteen important works by Brahms, Walter Frisch makes skillful use of Schoenberg's provocative concept of 'developing variation'. Frisch traces a genuine evolution through Brahms' compositions; he considers their relationship not only to each other, but also to significant works by Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Liszt, and Schoenberg.
