| Brahms, Johannes : Johannes Brahms : Ballades op. 10Format : Sheet music The instrumental ballad was a popular musical form in the 19th century and these four pieces for piano are Brahms s only contribution to the genre. The composer wrote the ballades during the time of his close friendship with Clara Schumann, and they exude an intimacy more typical of a vocal ballad. The pieces, which Schumann enthusiastically praised, were described by Brahms as being not too difficult to play and even less difficult to understand.
Brahms s Ballades op. 10 form an integral part of the advanced piano literature. This publication represents a valuable addition to the repertoire of Brahms s piano works in Bärenreiter Urtext editions.
