Cellist

The first concert of the chamber music series in the Spiegelsaal opens with a rarely heard early work: Gustav Mahler’s fragmentary Piano Quartet in A minor, the only surviving chamber music composition by the composer. It is characterized by dark tonal colors and a passionate expression. In contrast, Johannes Brahms’ Piano Quartet in G minor, Op. 25, is considered one of the most important works of the genre – especially famous for its rousing final movement.
