Symphony No. 1 in C Minor, op. 68, Study Score

Johannes Brahms (1833-1897): Sinfonía nº 1 en Do menor, op. 68, edición de estudio.

Faced with the daunting legacy of Beethoven's symphonic works, Johannes Brahms took twenty years to shape his first symphony, a masterpiece that premiered in 1876 to great critical acclaim.

The expansive Symphony No.1 in C minor perfectly displays Brahm's ability to organise a variety of moods into a coherent whole. The dramatic tension and somber coloring of the first movement are balanced by two central movements of charming lyrical relief; and the finale, with its grand main theme and famous horn solo (inspired by a shepherd's horn call), is considered one of the great movements in the orchestral literature.

The symphony is published here in full score, with bar-numbered movements.
