Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
The compositions of Johannes Brahms have never gone completely out of fashion, and for good reason; his is well-crafted music, romantic but never slushy, well considered, and important without being pompous. His orchestral songs, with the possible exception of the "Alto Rhapsody," are not nearly as well known as they deserve to be, and many people think of him primarily for his symphonies. This score offers a fine opportunity to become acquainted with that side of Brahms's work. As always with Dover scores, this is a reprint of an out-of-copyright volume from another publisher, and there may be occasional minor misprints and oddities of presentation. But for the price, Dover scores are an educational and musical bargain.
