Join us at Erina Library for a talk presented by Dr Steven Stanke from the Symphony Central Coast about Johannes Brahms, the romantic classicist.

Despite a scherzo that overflows with high spirits, Brahms Fourth Symphony is one of most serious and profound works in the orchestral repertoire. Combining ‘modern’ and complex musical ideas with a fundamental adherence to classical and pre-classical models, Brahms’ final symphony contains extraordinary invention and ingenuity as explores explores all the motivic ideas while the work remains logical and attractive.

Brahms creates memorable tunes and rich harmonies, all built with masterful craft and control. Artistic Director and Conductor of Symphony Central Coast Dr Steven Stanke discusses this seminal work in the orchestra repertoire.
