Description:
Brahms' spirited Rhapsodies op. 79 from 1879 are among the composer's most frequently performed works. For a long time, he could not quite decide on a suitable title and wavered between Piano Piece, Capriccio (No. 1) and Caprices. The deciding factor was the approval of the dedicatee Elisabeth von Herzogenberg, who welcomed the pieces with the words: You nameless in my heart in the misty garment of the rhapsody.
