Brahms’ two great sonatas Op. 120 are bedrock works in the clarinet repertoire. They are frequently played by violists as well. But barely known today are Brahms’ own careful transcriptions of these works for violin, newly presented in a beautiful new Bärenreiter edition edited by Clive Brown. Here is the ravishing second movement—Andante un poco adagio—from the F-minor Sonata, Op. 120, No. 1, played recently by Korbinian Altenberger and myself as an encore to our complete Brahms sonatas program.
