3 Intermezzi Op. 117

The Three Popular Intermezzi Op. 117 Can Be Seen As The Epitome Of Brahms’ Late Work For Piano. Clara Schumann Confessed: “In These Pieces I At Last Feel Musical Life Stir Once Again In My Soul”. Brahms Reacted, As He Often Did, In A Rather Brusque Manner. Although He Sometimes Described The Three Intermezzi As Being “Wiegenlieder” (Lullabies), He Formally Rejected This Title: “It Should Then Say, Lullaby Of An Unhappy Mother Or Of A Disconsolate Bachelor.” The New Edition Of These Moderately Difficult Intermezzi (Level Of Difficulty 5/6) Has Now Been Revised Following The Musical Text Of The Brahms Complete Edition, And Has Fingerings By Andreas Boyde.
