Info zu Brahms: Klavierstücke (Op. 116-119)

1892 kehrte Brahms zum Klavier zurück, um seine letzten Werke für dieses Instrument zu komponieren: vier Sammlungen von Musikstücken in einem kargen, fast asketischen Stil, bevor er mit den Vier Gesängen sein Œuvre abschloss. »Ein spätes Brahms-Intermezzo zu spielen ist wie ein Spaziergang im Schnee: Jede Spur bleibt zurück.« Fabrizio Chiovetta nähert sich diesen Abschiedsliedern mit seiner charakteristischen Eleganz und Direktheit.
