"get these darker aspects of music from Brahms"
Next contour is there, straight note values, in major the complete attire, one core idea
Note the change to new Notes
Then development section, experimental ideas
Going C flat (Neapolitan Chord)
Finally heavy melody
A fresh shape know realm of possibilities harmonically
Finally Coda D flat to b flat
Diminando multiricharando
Going back to tragedy
Thank you for providing high quality education for free
you're an amazing pianist and communicator of this complex music.
For me the challenge with this piece is tempo. He notates 32nd notes in 3/8, which would imply agitation, but then gives direction “andante non troppo”, which suggests not too much motion. I think the key is “expressivo”, allowing the tempo to ebb and flow with the material, as you do with your performance. Good job.
Yeah I agree, it's hard to find the sweet spot between movement and restraint! Thanks :)
Excellent contribution to the discussion about this profound piece. And note that only at the very end do we ever hear the tonic chord in root position.
This is one of my favourite solo pieces to listen to. I’ve tried to play some of it but have found it difficult. I will try again!
Brahms is never easy to play, work slowly and patiently, and enjoy the process. I' 'm now working on this one too, it's very difficult, and hope to finish it one day...
Brahms and Henrik at their finest. It's amazing how such fine music just feels right in so many ways.
This video is both informative and interesting as usual. Thank you for making these analyses of high quality. By the way, I hope that you can make a video about Chopin’s 4th ballade one day. Again, thank you for all of your devotion to guiding us to the beauty of great music pieces.😊
I'm so glad I have found you. You're doing a great job explaining all these heavy pieces of music. Thank you!! 🤩🤩
It's my pleasure! :)
I wanted a tutorial for this one. Thank you very much!
Nice to see a classical piece analysed in chords..... I ve to go through it in detail...
What an amazing harmony. I love this.
Lovely performance. Thank you for the teaching. well done
A very rich analysis. Thank you!
Brahms is always so subtle. This video wonderfully illustrates the harmonic foundation. ❤
Thank you so much! Just finished using your tutorial of Rach's Prelude in C sharp Minor! So helpful!
Glad to hear it!
Thank you for this very interesting analysis. I wasn't familiar with this piece before, but you've inspired me to learn it. It is such a marvelous composition, and a great pleasure to play!
Thank you very much for the content 🇲🇽
Excellent analysis of this Intermezzo! Thank you for sharing with us! You make everything very understandable.
Glad you think so!
thank you for your work and videos
Thank you. Your videos are very interesting and they help me improve my English
I absolutely love your commentary. I always learn so much and it brings out greater understanding of the music and with that greater beauty and greater appreciation of the work!! Thx so much!!
Thanks for sharing. It really helped me understanding this peace better. I’m currently practicing op 117 and I wonder if you plan to do a tutorial for no. 3 at some point? 🙏
Would love to see an opus 116. No.6 analysis, I’m making it an orchestral piece for a composing program I’m in and it’s definitely become my favorite Brahms piano work
This is a good tempo. Thank you
The way it's notated is a huge pet peeve of mine. Like, did Brahms enjoy all those triple beams sticking in his eyes? Or did he enjoy writing them by hand??? Not to mention counting the rhythm...
Great video! Will you analyze the third intermezzo of the op. 117 set as well?
henry you bring me so much joy. you should try chopin nocturne in D-flat. id love to hear your thoughts.
I have played it...maybe some time in the future...
@@SonataSecrets i have to second this. Op 27 no 2 is amazing and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it especially because im having difficulty learning it now
The deceptive cadence from F7 to G-flat minor at 5:58 sounds very Schubertian to me. Brahms must have learned a lot from Schubert's chromatic harmonies.
2:14 is a quote of Schumann's symphonic etudes, don't you agree?
23:47 sneaky little lord of the rings reference ;)
Hahaha!
please do Schumann 28 no2
In that Gb minor false cadence, why do you think it's spelled with an A-natural rather than a Bbb? And yet near the end of the first section in the arpeggio it's spelled with the Bbb. Is that just an editorial quirk or does it have some meaning?
Great video, may I request an analysis on Chopin Op 9 no 1
That nocturne is coming later this year!
Finally done it now!

такой вроде большой дядя, и не знает что мелодию и аккомпанемент надо играть разным звуком. мелодию погромче, аккомпанемент потише.
ну а всей братии которая ставит лайки и восторгается, привет от сотен выдающихся пианистов 20 века которых конечно же никак нигде нельзя послушать, чтобы получить представление о том как играется подобная музыка
Brahms is musically incompetent.
