Cello Sonatas: No. 1, op. 38 / No. 2, op. 99 / op. 78

Album by Johannes Brahms & Maria Kliegel & Kristin Merscher

Cello Sonatas: No. 1, op. 38 / No. 2, op. 99 / Op. 78 is a collection of cello sonatas by Johannes Brahms, originally composed in the 1860s and 1880s. The works combine Romantic-era lyricism with dense piano writing and rich harmonic textures, and they reflect Brahms's development from his earlier chamber pieces to a more concentrated late style in his chamber music.
