Y. Nézet-Séguin: Brahms Cycle III: Concert Various

Classical music and the body, a topic that is as exciting as it is neglected: did you know that in the 19th century people thought that symphonists should stay single and opera composers should be married? Songs remained for women (unmarried!). A Louise Farrenc was not planned at all. In France, where opera was loved, she wrote symphonies and, when only the latest fashion counted, published editions of the works of old composers. She also tied in with Beethoven. Something similar could be said of Johannes Brahms, only that he started with all this later. In his first piano concerto he portrayed his muse Clara, who incidentally had been an excellent composer herself.
