To make his works more accessible to the general public, Johannes Brahms produced a raft of arrangements for piano four hands and two pianos. These included his symphonic and orchestral music, as well as both the piano concertos, chamber works, A German Requiem and original pieces such as the Hungarian Dances and the Sonata for Two Pianos. This collection brings together for the first time the acclaimed recordings by Silke-Thora Matthies and Christian Köhn, much praised for their 'breathtakingly fine-tuned ensemble work' (ClassicsToday.com). All of Brahms' arrangements of his own works are included as well as his versions of compositions by Franz Schubert, Robert Schumann and Joseph Joachim.
"The playing of Silke-Thora Matthies and Christian Kohn demands admiration. This is another collectable volume from Naxos in their impressive series of Brahms's four hand piano music." MusicWeb (Vol 13)
