Symphony no. 1 in C minor

Album by Johannes Brahms & London Philharmonic Orchestra & Klaus Tennstedt

Symphony No. 1 in C minor is the first symphony by Johannes Brahms, completed and premiered in 1876. Composed over more than two decades, it blends Romantic orchestral colour with classical forms through dense thematic development, dramatic contrasts and a finale that resolves the C minor tension, occupying a pivotal place in Brahms's career and the late-Romantic symphonic tradition.
