Symphony No. 1

Album by Johannes Brahms & Wiener Philharmoniker & Leonard Bernstein

Symphony No. 1 is the first symphony by German composer Johannes Brahms, completed in 1876. The four-movement orchestral work fuses Classical structural principles with Romantic harmonic language and dense orchestration, arriving after a prolonged period of composition and signalling Brahms's entry into the symphonic tradition alongside the legacy of Beethoven.
First released: 1983
