Serenade no. 1 / Variations on a Theme by Haydn

Album by Johannes Brahms & Yoel Levi & Atlanta Symphony Orchestra

This release is an album of orchestral works by Johannes Brahms, composed in 1857 and 1873. The music features Romantic orchestral writing with lyrical melodies, warm harmonic textures and classical variation technique, and occupies a place in Brahms's output that bridges his earlier lyrical orchestral style and his later, more structurally rigorous works.
First released: 29th June 1993
