Piano Concertos 1 & 2
Album by Johannes Brahms & Stephen Hough & BBC Symphony Orchestra & Sir Andrew Davis
Piano Concertos 1 & 2 is a collection of the two piano concertos by Johannes Brahms, completed in 1858 and 1881. The works are large-scale Romantic concertos that combine dense orchestral textures with virtuosic piano writing, charting Brahms's development from his early symphonic ambitions to the mature orchestral and pianistic synthesis that became central to the late-Romantic concerto repertoire.
