For its end of year concert, the RNCM Symphony Orchestra will perform Schoenberg’s radical re-working of Brahms’ Piano Quartet Op 25.
Schoenberg was a big fan of Brahms, and greatly admired his Piano Quartet, yet he had some reservations about its scoring. He subjected it to the full symphonic treatment and the LA Philharmonic premiered the vivid re-creation in 1938, with conductor Otto Klemperer declaring: ‘You can’t even hear the original quartet, so beautiful is the arrangement.’
