Lyrical, dramatic, and light-hearted aspects of Brahms’s music are showcased by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. His famous Academic Festival Overture playfully quotes student songs before culminating in the jubilant “Gaudemus igitur.” In warmly melodic music, Brahms shows reverence for past masters and classical forms in his Variations on a Theme by Haydn, while the heroic tone and grand scale of his Symphony No. 1 establish him as a great German symphonic master.
