Johannes Brahms, op. 117
December 1, 2014. More of Brahms’s late piano music. In recent months we’ve written about Johannes Brahms’s two sets of piano music, Seven fantasies, op. 116 and Six Piano Pieces, op. 118. Today we continue with the middle opus, Three Intermezzos op.117, which Brahms, in a letter to a 
friend, called “lullabies of my sorrow.” Intermezzos were written in 1892, during the period of great personal loss. As always, we illustrate the pieces with music from our library. The pianist in these recordings is Yael Kareth. Yael was born in Jerusalem in 1986. She studied at the Tel Aviv Music Academy and then continued in London with Murray Perahia. She participated in the Itzhak Perlman Project in Israel and the US, the Aspen and Ravinia Festivals, and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra under Daniel Barenboim. She also performed as a soloist with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra under Zubin Mehta. Currently Yael lives in Berlin where she studies with Dmitri Bashkirov and Daniel Barenboim. The article follows.
In contrast to the neighboring opp. 116 and 118, Brahms comprised op. 117 of only three intermezzi. However, these three works are of an unmistakably greater import than the similar works of those two collections (except, of course, the grim E-flat minor Intermezzo). Despite their subdued tone, they carry a weight that could hardly be found within either op. 116 or op. 118, yet together form a fulfilling whole. Continue here.
