Brahms Plus

Brahms Plus

In the 1850s, Brahms was still questioning the form of the symphony and sought an alternative through the serenade form. The work in six movements was originally written for nine instruments; fortunately, this version has been reconstructed. Stravinsky's "L'Histoire du Soldat," from which the composer extracted three trio movements in 1919 for concert use, is orchestrated in a much more restrained manner. Just as Stravinsky's music draws inspiration from the Francophone poetry of Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz, composer Tatsiana Zelianko was drawn into her own French verses for "Envol." In her poetry, she celebrates the transcendence of earthly burdens and dreams of a state of serenity and lightness.
