Description:
After Johannes Brahms’ String Sextet in G major, Op. 36, was published in 1866, the Simrock publishing house—as was customary at the time—released arrangements of the work for other instrumentations. In 1883, a version for piano trio was published, arranged by Theodor Kirchner (1823–1903), himself a composer and friend of Brahms. Unlike other versions commissioned by the publisher—such as the one for piano by Robert Keller—Kirchner’s arrangement met with Brahms’s approval, as evidenced by a letter to Simrock: "The trios [based on Op. 18 and 36] give me extraordinary pleasure! If the idea was yours, I congratulate you, but Kirchner has also executed it magnificently." For this first Urtext edition of Kirchner’s arrangement of Brahms’s Op. 36, the autograph engraving of the slow movement was critically evaluated alongside the primary source—the score and parts from the first edition.
