Although Henry Mancini was an adequate pianist, his first instrument was the flute.

During the Fifties when Mancini was working at the Universal lot, he and Andy Barber, the head of the music department at Universal, would play hookie and sneak out to Santa Anita during racing season.

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Another product of the chamber music summer of 1886 for Johannes Brahms was a piano trio. By this time, Brahms could concentrate his musical thought with such intensity that the entire four movement piece doesn’t even run twenty minutes.

This live performance is about 40 years old and features three giants of their respective instruments, now all gone. Rather than play the pedant, I’ll let you just wallow in this movement, especially the second subject. It’s so juicy!

Brahms: Trio for Piano, Violin and Cello in C minor, Op. 101, first movement

The second movement is a short intermezzo. The third is one of the great, heartfelt slow movements.

second and third movements

The finale is a fine crowd pleaser in sonata format.

I didn’t know that! Did he play flute in any of his arrangements?

It’s my pleasure, sweetness and hugs backatcha!

I saw him play flute once on TV during an Academy Awards show. Don’t know if he ever played flute on records. He conducted a lot, though.

Johannes Brahms needed to find a way to patch up his relationship with violinist Joseph Joachim after the mess over Joachim’s divorce. Jo Brahms had taken sides, and it had blown up in his face. His idea was to write a concerto for violin and cello for his old friend and cellist Robert Hausmann, and it worked. In the fall of 1887, Joachim appeared with his violin, Hausmann with his cello, and Brahms conducted this work from the podium. The boys were back together.

This piece has never caught on because of the requirement of having both a great violinist and great cellist on the same stage at the same time. There was also a feeling on the part of Jo’s friends that the piece lacked warmth. There is some truth to this. I’ve run across live performances and recordings that left me cold in spite of the virtuosity displayed. But I ran across a recording from the Fifties that displays both the virtuosity and the Viennese warmth lacking elsewhere.

Usually the cadenza, where the instrumentalist shows off his chops in a solo, comes at the end of a movement. Brahms starts the piece off with a cadenza for cello that is gruff, dissonant, and rather indicative of Brahms’ prickly personality. It is followed by a sweet cadenza for violin accompanied by cello that approximates Brahms’ idea of Joachim’s personality combined with Brahms’ gruffness. Only then does he get down to the work of exposition. Go along for the ride. It’s fun.

The second movement is sweet and songlike, and the finale is a fine example of gypsy writing.

Brahms: Concerto for Violin and Cello in A minor, Op. 102

Hey, Connie! It is very dry and no relief in sight. Our business
is just booming...mainly because the economy here is booming.

We have the lowest unemployment in the country right now. 2.8%...
and people can’t find places to live because they can’t build
them fast enough!
