Description:
Johannes Brahms (1833 - 1897) composed his Symphony No. 4 in E Minor, Op. 98 in 1884. The symphony's premiere was in October 1885. Michael Hopkins' arrangement of the second movement is designed to make Brahms' masterpiece accessible for an intermediate level string orchestra. The introduction, principal and secondary themes, a portion of the development section and recapitulation, and the coda are included in this abridged arrangement. The time signature has been modified from a slow 6/8 to 3/4, and the key has been changed from E major to D major. The arrangement features sections for solo quartet contrasting with the tutti and captures the rich textures, rhythmic vitality, and Romanticism of Brahms original work. Your students will enjoy performing this beautiful work by one of history's greatest composers. (6:00)
