| "I am tempted to have a short piece of music copied for you, as I should very much like to know how you get on with it. It teems with discords ... It is exceptionally melancholy, and to say \'to be played very slowly\' is not sufficient. Every bar and every note must be played as if ritardando were indicated, and one wished to draw the melancholy out of each one of them, and voluptuous joy and comfort out of the discords. My God, how this description will whet your appetite!" |
Ivor Keys writes on Johannes Brahms, "He did send it, and Clara loved it. ... Pianists thus have a precious and authoritative lesson in how to play Op. 119 No. 1. It does not sound in the least like \'all passion spent\'. Clara eloquently called it \'a grey pearl\'.', CAPTION, 'Intermezzo Op. 119 No. 1 in B minor', WIDTH, 375);" onmouseout="return nd();">No. 1 - Intermezzo in B minor |
