Symphony no. 4 in E minor, op. 98 / Variations on a Theme by Joseph Haydn op. 56

Album by Johannes Brahms & Orchestra Filarmonica Italiana & Alessandro Arigoni

Symphony No. 4 in E minor, Op. 98 and the Variations on a Theme by Joseph Haydn, Op. 56 are orchestral works by Johannes Brahms, completed in 1885 and 1873 respectively. The symphony, Brahms's final in the genre, fuses late-Romantic orchestration with classical structural principles and dense contrapuntal writing that culminates in a passacaglia-like finale, while the Variations employ a theme-and-variations design that pays homage to earlier models through concentrated orchestral colour, illustrating key aspects of his mature compositional style.
