Symphonies no. 3 & 4

Album by Johannes Brahms & SWR Sinfonieorchester Baden‐Baden und Freiburg & Michael Gielen

Symphonies No. 3 and No. 4 are orchestral works by German composer Johannes Brahms, composed in 1883 and 1885 respectively. They exemplify Brahms's mature Romantic orchestral style, balancing classical forms with rich harmonic language, motivic development and rhythmic drive, and represent the culmination of his symphonic writing in the 1880s.
