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

Brahms' Piano Concerto No. 2 was completed in 1881, 14 years before the Alter Bahnhof, today's Festspielhaus entrance building. The temporal proximity explains a related aesthetic, the style of representation. It was a glorious over-style that absorbed all previous styles. In Brahms' Piano Concerto, for example, we find borrowings from Beethoven, Schubert and Schumann. Such thinking has its forerunners in Louise Farrenc's symphonies, for in her too we find a master builder. Against the urge to reform after Beethoven's death, she focused on style, form, preservation, cultural skepticism and industrial progress. A conservative aesthetic opposed to the liquefaction of form in Romanticism.
