Brahms mainly composed the eight Piano Pieces op. 76 in summer 1878 in the summer resort of Pörtschach at Lake Wörth. Theodor Billroth, a close friend, was enthusiastic about the new works: “These are magnificent pieces, beautiful and interesting to play. They lie so well under the hand for those who are a little used to Schumann's and Chopin's technique that it is a pleasure to practise them.” As the volume “Piano Pieces” was published in 2011 as part of the Johannes Brahms Complete Edition (HN 6014), Henle is now replacing the previous volume HN 118 with this new one, presenting these“magnificent pieces”in the musical text of the Complete Edition, accompanied by revealing commentaries detailing their genesis and publication.

Quick Overview
At an early age, Johannes Brahms showed an interest in the music of composers before him. In this context, he came across the variations and themes of George Frideric Handel which, in turn, inspired him to write an extensive work of variations for the piano. This new edition of the Wiener Urtext Edition is based on a meticulous comparison of autographs, first editions and personal copies. Brahms’ autograph copy served as an essential corrective and subsequent corrections made by the composer in Max Kalbeck’s personal copy were taken into account as well. With pristinely clear engraving, this edition is a perfect tool for studying Handel’s masterpiece. For advanced players.
