Piano Concerto no. 1 / Tragic Overture

Album by Johannes Brahms & Horacio Gutiérrez & André Previn & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

This release is an album of orchestral works by Johannes Brahms, featuring a piano concerto and an overture composed in 1858 and 1880 respectively. Both pieces exemplify Brahms's Romantic language, pairing virtuosic piano writing and symphonic-scale orchestration with dense chromaticism and dramatic contrasts that trace his development from early ambition to mature expressive control within the 19th-century orchestral tradition.
