Brahms

A biography of one of the "Three Bs" of music composition, Brahms details the life and career of German composer and pianist Johannes Brahms. A wildly popular figure during his time, Brahms composed pieces for piano, chamber ensembles, symphonies and choirs. Interestingly, he premiered many of his own works on piano, making him a well-known virtuoso pianist as well. While many of his works have become instantly recognizable classics, Brahms was a great perfectionist and destroyed some of his scores that he felt were unsuitable for publishing or performing.
