  • Yes, Johannes Brahms is the composer of this symphony (his 1st symphony), and Otto Klemperer is the conductor of this piece. Every conductor brings a different sound - lets say, Eduard van Beinum reduces the sound of the percussion in the first movement, but Klemperer just brings it right out there. Conductors are free to interpret pieces by their own, of course, within the "limit".

  • So beautiful. I like Klemperer's way to create music out of an orchestra. I like his Beethoven and Brahms best.

  • pourquoi je recois titre youtube a la place de titre

  • 6:31... one of my favorite violin solos. simply heartbreaking.

  • this orchestra is absolutely brilliant

  • khm, I am not delighted to read such initial queries.

    How impressive it is to see his beginnings, birth place etc.

  • love the piece, and oh my -> what a house :S

  • A symphony is a large form that normally has 4 movements, or sections. Each movement can stand alone, but most of the time the composer writes each movement based on an idea. It is the unity of the idea that brings the movements together to make a piece.

    This symphony follows this form:

    1st movement- slow-fast introduction

    2nd movement- romance

    3rd movement- scherzo or in a playful mood

    4th movement- grand finale

  • one more thing.. what are the movements in piece? 1st, 2nd, 3rd..? what is their differences..?

  • ohh.. is that so? i see, i see.. now i get it..! it's up to the conductor themself how they want to conduct the piece...haa.. glad i know this now.. thank you very much for this knowledge..

  • i'm new into musics, so, can i ask questions? emm, is Brahms created this? and, Klemperer is a conductor to this piece? i don't understand.. do each conductor who conduct this piece, will bring a different sound?
