His later activities as pianist and as choral conductor were not very successful, but after he settled in Vienna his compositions brought him enough money to support himself in simple comfort. Brahms never married, although he had several love affairs and remained deeply attached to Clara Schumann for years after her husband's death. In his music the romantic impulse is restrained by a reverence for the forms of the past. This blend of romantic feeling and classical spirit is exemplified in such works as his Variations on a Theme by Handel (1861), for piano, and the orchestral composition Variations on a Theme by Haydn (1873). In his day, Brahms's conservative romanticism was contrasted with Richard Wagner Liszt and Wagner. His extreme self-criticism led him to destroy much of what he composed, limiting the number of his existing works but ensuring a uniformly high quality.

The Blog Sheet Music Glossary a b c d ... z Period Renaissance Baroque Classical Romantic ... 20th century Brahms, Johannes Johannes Brahms is ranked among the masters of the Romantic era. Although he showed talent at the piano at an early age, he spent much of his young life performing rather than composing. Brahms's career was given a boost by composer Robert Schumann (1810-56) and his pianist wife Clara (1819-96); his close relationship with Clara, especially after she was widowed, has been the source of much speculation ever since. The pair exchanged passionate letters and went on holiday together, but Brahms opted to leave her behind to pursue his career and a life of bachelorhood. By the end of the 1860s he'd settled in Vienna, where he lived until his death from cancer in 1897. Musically he maintained the Romantic tradition of Ludwig van Beethoven, in opposition to the rise of composers such as Richard Wagner and Brahms's friend, Franz Liszt.

COMPOSERS JOHANNES BRAHMS Born: May 7, 1833. Hamburg, Germany Died: April 3, 1897. Vienna, Austria In his own words... "It is not hard to compose, but it is wonderfully hard to let the superfluous notes fall under the table." German composer. Brahms created a style that blended the lyrical and intellectual and served as a contrast to the progressive style of the New German School. Johannes Brahms grew up surrounded by a practical world of music. His father was a double bass player, and Brahms took early lessons in piano, theory and composition. As a teenager, he gained intimate familiarity with serious and popular styles, arranging music for his father's orchestra and playing piano in local dance halls. At twenty he began touring as an accompanist and began to make important contacts. Among these were Robert and Clara Schumann , both of whom had a lasting effect on his life and career. Robert, in his role as a critic, first brought Brahms' name to the notice of the German public, calling him a "young eagle." Clara became an emotional focus for Brahms, one that would last throughout his life. Brahms spent many years working as a conductor and pianist, hoping for a prestigious appointment that never materialized. He did, however, serve two years as director of the Berlin Singakademie. In 1868 he settled in Vienna, where he would remain for the rest of his life. He soon composed two works that assured him both fame and financial security: the

Johannes Brahms (1833 - 1897) Background Johannes Brahms was born on 7th May 1833 in Hamburg. His father played the horn and double-bass, while his mother was a seamstress 17 years his father's senior. His father played in the militia band and court orchestra, earning barely enough to support his family. Johannes was intended to learn his father's trade, and was taught violin, cello, and piano. The young Brahms's pianistic abilities shone through, and from the age of 13, he earned money for his family by playing the piano in restaurants, taverns, and brothels. It is speculated that Brahms's early experiences in Hamburg's houses of ill repute were responsible for his disastrous love life. Brahms originally learned piano with F.W. Cossel, later transferring to Eduard Marxen, who gave him crucial early lessons in music theory. Despite his considerable virtuosity as a pianist, Brahms decided early on to concentrate on composition. listen to Brahms!

Assignment Choices: - What might Brahms say to Clara to first open up the subject of his love for her? - Does Brahms propose marriage or is it he who never asks, rather than she who refuses? 2. Write the lyrics for a song Brahms might have written for Clara. Keep in mind that words for songs during this time period usually rhymed. 3. If you play an instrument, create an original short piece that Brahms might have written for Clara. Consider the emotions of love and how they might be conveyed through the music. Would the tempo be slow and the tone sad because love is unrequited, or might the tempo be fast and furious to show the frustration of two souls that never connect?

You are HERE Classical Composer : Johannes Brahms by Betty Fry May 1, 2001 Amazon Products So again searching for a way to get the feel of the man behind the music, what else would I play other than Brahms sweet and lovely 'Cradle Song'. This famous lullaby has been known to me for so many years, yet until now I only ever thought of it as ' Brahms Lullaby '. I hummed it to my children without a thought as to who might have composed its lovely sound, or why it came to be a part of the composer's repertoire. And I am now both intrigued and delighted to discover how much more pleasure there is in music when one knows something of the composer, and the reasoning behind its making. 'Cradle Song' was a variation on an Austrian folk song which Brahms wrote for the first child of his Viennese friend, Berta Porubszky. The piano arrangement to which I am listening, is a particularly well known version. The calm soothing melody sings out sweetly, while the gently rocking accompaniment and rippling keyboard elaborations are heard above it. If it were evening it would certainly be sleep inducing. But it is early morning, and instead I find it utterly relaxing, making for a gentle start to a new day that can sometimes be a little too rushed for comfort.
