Beskrivning
This first edition of the “ Regenlied Cycle ” is only available from G. Henle Publishers. In the preface, Michael Struck, an eminent Brahms scholar, writes about the distinctiveness of the work, until now a completely unknown little song cycle by the composer. In it Brahms sets four texts to music by the poet Klaus Groth, whom he greatly admired. In the well-known song cycle Opus 59, published by Brahms himself, the Groth songs are also to be found together with other songs. The reason why Johannes Brahms ’ Violin Sonata no. 1 in G major op. 78 is also known as the “Regenlied” Sonata becomes clear on acquiring, studying and playing this “ Regenlied Cycle ”.
