Variations on a theme by Haydn

Experience Classical

Available for over a year

From a simple opening chorale melody, Brahms cleverly fashions a set of 8 variations. The melody is developed to give you the sense of a mirage – it’s always there, when in fact the listener never hears it again. Composer: Johannes Brahms Performers: Âé¶¹Éç National Orchestra of Wales Conductor: Thomas Sondergard Recording date: 31 May 2013 Date of broadcast: 31 May 2013
