By Aere Greenway. By Johannes Brahms. Arranged by Aere Greenway. Classical,Romantic Period. Score and Parts. 46 pages. Aere R Greenway #864730. Published by Aere R Greenway (A0.1272505).As a life-long fan of the music of Brahms, I have wished there were more than his four symphonies to enjoy.
So I set about orchestrating his sonata for piano, opus 5, as a symphony.
I doing so, I've seen many things in his piano music, that suggest he was thinking orchestrally. And this is a composition from his youth (1854). In fact, I have been repeatedly amazed at how many simultaneous, independent parts, he has put into a piano solo. I haven't needed to create anything. It's all Brahms, coming through.
Perhaps, if Brahms weren't so overwhelmed by the genius of Beethoven, who came before, he might have made this his first symphony.
And you get to hear its third movement now. As with the tradition of Beethoven, the 3rd movement is a scherzo. You can think of it (at least in the beginning, and end), as "the waltz of the gargoyles". Enjoy!
Brahms has long been a staple of concert-going audiences, and with this piece, you can perform a new symphony of Brahms, created from his piano sonata in F-minor, orchestrated into a symphony by Aere.
