Recollections of Johannes Brahms

by Albert Hermann Dietrich

This book provides a glimpse into the life of Johannes Brahms through the personal accounts of two close friends. Albert Hermann Dietrich, a German composer and conductor, shares his vivid recollections of their relationship and includes charming letters exchanged between them. J.V. Widmann, a Swiss writer and editor, offers an intimate portrait of Brahms during the latter part of his life, chronicling their travels to Italy and their enduring friendship until the composer's death. The book offers a unique perspective on Brahms's personality, creative process, and artistic legacy, as seen through the eyes of those who knew him well.
