Brahms, Johannes - Sextet No 2 in G Major, Op 36 - Two Violins, Two Violas and Two Cellos - Set of Parts - International Music Company
Johannes Brahms's String Sextet No. 2 in G major, Opus 36 was composed during the years of 1864-1865 and published by the firm of Fritz Simrock. Brahms did most of the composition in the comfortable country surroundings of Lichtental, near Baden-Baden. According to Brahms' biographer Karl Geiringer, it conceals a reference to the first name of Agathe von Siebold (with whom he was infatuated at the time) in the first movement, bars 162-168, with the notes a-g-a-d-h-e. The work is characterised by its exotic sounding opening of the first movement, by innovative chord structures and its many contrasts both technical and melodical.
This edition contains parts for two violins, two violas, and two cellos. Published by International.
