Abstract
"This evening's program commemorates the 100th anniversary of the death of Johannes Brahms (1833-97). Born in Hamburg, of humble parentage, Brahms received his first musical instruction from his father; who played the double bass in local theaters and bordellos. By fourteen, he was earning a living as a pianist."--Notes and Commentary
