String Quintet (Parts)
SKU: HL.51481483
G Major Op. 111 String Parts. Composed by Johannes Brahms. Edited by Kathrin Kirsch. Henle Music Folios. Classical. Softcover. 71 pages. G. Henle #HN1483. Published by G. Henle (HL.51481483).
UPC: 196288148241. 9.0x12.0x0.241 inches.
As with its companion work op. 88 from 1882, Brahmss second string quintet was supposed to be completed in the relaxed atmosphere of a summer in Bad Ischl, but eight years later. The works first technical try-out in Vienna in October 1890, which Brahms described to his friend Clara Schumann as “not displeasing”, was followed by a fine-tuning of the work in close dialogue with musical friends such as Joseph Joachim before Brahms sent score and parts to his publisher Simrock at the year's end. With its at times orchestral texture and stirring, typically Brahmsian rhythms, this cheerful work early on won the hearts of listeners and players alike, despite presenting the latter with some challenges. This new Henle Urtext edition is based on the New Brahms Complete Edition, for which editor Kathrin Kirsch has consulted all the autograph sources and first editions. With parts that have judiciously set page turns and cue-notes to facilitate performance, it offers the best foundation for approaching this jewel of Brahms's chamber music.
