Symphony No. 2 / Haydn Variations / Tragic Overture

Album by Johannes Brahms & NBC Symphony Orchestra & Arturo Toscanini

This release is a collection of orchestral works by German composer Johannes Brahms, composed between 1873 and 1880. The music is part of the Romantic orchestral repertoire, combining expansive melodies, rich string and wind textures, and classical formal structures, and it sits in the middle of Brahms's career as he refined his approach to large-scale orchestral writing.
