Concerto No. 2 for Piano and Orchestra, op. 83

Album by Johannes Brahms & Rudolf Serkin & The Philadelphia Orchestra & Eugene Ormandy

Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 83 is a piano concerto by the German composer Johannes Brahms, completed in 1881. The four-movement work combines expansive, symphonic orchestration with a demanding piano part that engages in contrapuntal and lyrical exchanges with the orchestra, and it represents a late‑Romantic statement that exemplifies Brahms's mature approach to concerto writing.
