Pleasure in Melancholy

Daniel and Isabel talk about Brahms' Intermezzo op. 119 no. 1, which begins his final set of small works for the piano. They discuss Brahms' letter to Clara Schumann about the opening of the piece, the painful desire of the Romantics, and Brahms' organic writing. We also talk about teaching, and why it's not for Isabel.YouTube for full video episodesFollow Isabel HERE. Follow Daniel HEREFollow the podcast everywhere at @saveclassicalpod
