About
19th-century folk called them rivals, pitting the Romani-flavored, incomparably crafted works of Johannes Brahms against the freewheeling passion and Teutonic bombast of Richard Wagner. To our ears, they just sound Romantic. But what's more Romantic than a good rivalry?
Immerse yourself in the lush and richly hued sounds of Brahms and Wagner when Music Director Nathalie Stutzmann cues the next installment in Brahms Revealed. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra injects explosive energy into Brahms' tumultuous Third Symphony, passing through a wistful allegretto to a blazing finale. Stutzmann contrasts the Brahms with the Romantic opulence of Richard Wagner, with excerpts from three operas, including the ecstatic Prelude and "Liebestod" from Tristan und Isolde.
