The Symphonies
Album by Johannes Brahms & Boston Symphony Orchestra & Andris Nelsons
The Symphonies are a set of four symphonies by German composer Johannes Brahms, completed between 1876 and 1885. Rooted in the late Romantic tradition, they combine classical formal discipline with dense orchestral textures, advanced harmonic language and expansive structures, representing Brahms's mature orchestral output and forming an important strand of the late Romantic symphonic repertoire.
