Tickets for saleThroughout the 19th century, the Piano Quintet was one of the chamber formations that aroused the most interest among composers. Brahms’ Op. 34 is one of the most notable examples of this repertoire. It began as a String Quintet in 1862. It was then transcribed into a Piano Duo and after two years (and a tortuous creative process) was transformed into a Quintet with Piano, exemplarily representative of the Brahmsian style. In this program of the Metropolitan Soloists, he is preceded by the music of one of the figures who has most closely followed his entire career. Clara Schumann, also a pianist, was an international concert pianist. Even so, as a composer, and despite having written more than sixty works, she was never recognized as such. She wrote the Three Romances for Violin and Piano in 1853 to play in the tours where she was accompanied by a violinist that Brahms also knew well, Joseph Joachim.
