Symphonies nos. 1 & 3

Album by Johannes Brahms & WDR Sinfonieorchester Köln & Jukka‐Pekka Saraste

Symphonies Nos. 1 and 3 are orchestral works by German composer Johannes Brahms, completed in 1876 and 1883 respectively. Rooted in the Romantic tradition, they balance classical symphonic structures with rich, often brooding orchestration and recurring thematic development, with the First emerging after a prolonged period of composition that established Brahms's symphonic voice and the Third presenting a more compact, lyrical facet of his mature style.
