Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) started work on his Symphony No. 4 in E minor, Op. 98 in 1884, a year after finishing the third. It brings a stern, yet majestic conclusion to the cycle, admired for its rich motivic development and the dramatic Bachian formality of its final passacaglia. Brahms introduced a two-piano version of the work with Ignaz Brüll to a gathering of friends, including the critic Eduard Hanslick, in October 1885. The Meiningen Court Orchestra gave the first performance on the 25th of that month under the baton of the composer. Instrumentation: 2(2nd dPicc).2.2.2+CBsn: 4.2.3.0: Timp.Perc(1): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set). Reprint edition. Transposed parts for clarinets, horns, trumpets, and trombone (bass clef) are also included.
