Symphonie No. 1

Album by Johannes Brahms & Staatskapelle Berlin & Otmar Suitner

Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68, is the first symphony by German composer Johannes Brahms, completed and first performed in 1876. The work is a large-scale Romantic symphony that combines classical structural principles with late-Romantic orchestration, characterised by broad thematic development, dense textures and a finale often associated with Beethoven's symphonic legacy, marking Brahms's emergence into the symphonic repertoire after many years of preparation.

First released: 1989
