Product description

Brahms struggled for years with composition of his First Symphony -- the feeling of impotence in the face of Beethoven’s works seemed overwhelming. He wrote to his friend, the conductor Hermann Levi: “I will never compose a symphony! You have no idea how the likes of me feels when he always hears such a giant (Beethoven) marching behind him.” But in October 1876 Brahms finally did complete it, and the first – acclaimed – performances of his First Symphony immediately took place in Karlsruhe, Mannheim, Munich, and Vienna. We herewith offer the score of this work, published within the framework of our New Collected Edition, as a convenient study score. In his preface to this Urtext edition in small format, our editor – Brahms expert Robert Pascall – presents interesting information about the work’s genesis and publishing history.

Über Jahre hinweg kämpfte Brahms mit der Niederschrift seiner ersten Symphonie. Zu groß schien die Ohnmacht vor dem Werk Beethovens. Seinem Freund, dem Dirigenten Hermann Levi, schrieb Brahms „Ich werde nie eine Symphonie komponieren! Du hast keinen Begriff davon, wie es unsereinem zu Mute ist, wenn er immer so einen Riesen (Beethoven) hinter sich marschieren hört.“ Im Oktober 1876 hatte Brahms es aber doch geschafft und sofort fanden in Karlsruhe, Mannheim, München und Wien die ersten – gefeierten – Aufführungen seiner ersten Symphonie statt. Wir bieten die Partitur dieses Werkes, die im Rahmen unserer Neuen Gesamtausgabe veröffentlicht wurde, hiermit auch als handliche Studien-Ausgabe an. Im Vorwort zu dieser Urtextausgabe im Kleinformat steuert unser Herausgeber - der Brahms-Experte Robert Pascall – Interessantes zur Entstehungs- und Editionsgeschichte des Werkes bei.
