HISTORICAL, DESCRIPTIVE AND a.n.a.lYTICAL ACCOUNT OF THE ENTIRE WORKS OF BRAHMS

BY

EDWIN EVANS (SENIOR)

The works are treated in the order of their opus number, and =every= single composition is dealt with =exhaustively=. No other work with such a wealth of detail exists in any language. The whole, being adequately indexed, forms a complete reference book for pianist, student and concert-goer, and may be described as =monumental=.

Of the =CHAMBER AND ORCHESTRAL= music, a minute a.n.a.lysis reaching to the rhythmical significance of each bar is given.

The a.n.a.lytical accounts of the =PIANO= works are each subdivided under the headings: Key; Time and Extent; Thematic Material; Melody; Harmony; Rhythm; etc.

The =CHORAL= works are dealt with in the fullest detail, and original English translations have been made to most of the =SONGS=.

Each volume is a self-contained unit and a complete textbook on its particular subject.
