Commons FliX | [CLASSICAL MUSIC] - "Etudes, Op. 25" by Frédéric Chopin @CommonsFliXMusic | Uploaded April 2018 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Chopin's second set of Études was published in 1837, and dedicated to Franz Liszt's mistress, Marie d'Agoult, the reasons for which are a matter of speculation.
Chopin's Études were the foundation of a new system of technical piano playing that was radical and revolutionary. They are some of the most challenging and evocative pieces of all the works in concert piano repertoire.
Because of this, they remain popular and are often performed in both concert and private stages.

![[CLASSICAL MUSIC] - Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68 by Johannes Brahms](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jh2eEhrnbik/hqdefault.jpg "[CLASSICAL MUSIC] - Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68 by Johannes Brahms
Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68, by Johannes Brahms was first performed in 1876, conducted by Felix Otto Dessoff, a friend of the composer. It took Brahms at least 14 years to complete, the first sketches dating from 1862.
The long gestation of the symphony may be put down to two factors: on the one hand, Brahms self-critical fastidiousness which led him to destroy many of his early works, and, on the other hand, the expectation of Brahms friends and the public that Brahms would continue Beethovens inheritance and produce a symphony of commensurate dignity and intellectual scope—an expectation which Brahms felt he could not fulfill easily in view of the monumental reputation of Beethoven.
The work is in the typical four movements, scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, contrabassoon, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani and strings.
00:00 - I. Un poco sostenuto - Allegro.
15:09 - II. Andante sostenuto.
23:46 - III. Un poco allegretto e grazioso.
28:41 - IV. Adagio - Più andante - Allegro non troppo, ma con brio.
Composer: Johannes Brahms.
Performer: Musopen Symphony.

The term ballade was associated with French poetry until the mid-19th century, when Chopin was among the first to pioneer it as a musical form.
Structurally, his ballades follow a form that is similar to the sonata, but with some variations, mainly regarding the position of the themes during the recapitulation.
The Ballade no. 2, Op. 38, was composed from 1836 to 1839 and dedicated to Schumann, in return for his dedication of the Kreisleriana. Schumann, however, agreed with contemporary critics in noting the less inspired nature of this piece compared to the first Ballade.
Performer: Frank Levy.
