Piano Concerto no. 1 / Variations on a Theme of Schumann

Album by Johannes Brahms & András Schiff & Wiener Philharmoniker & Sir Georg Solti

Piano Concerto No. 1 / Variations on a Theme of Schumann is a pairing of two works by German composer Johannes Brahms composed in the 1850s. The concerto is a large-scale Romantic work that balances orchestral power and virtuosic piano writing, while the variations display Brahms's skill with variation form and contrapuntal textures, together marking a formative stage in his development as a symphonist and pianist-composer.
