It begins with a delicious first subject that just commands attention. The second subject at 1:31 and the third at 2:50 are juicy. The development section is impassioned. Recapitulation comes at 5:28, and it’s re-composed, as usual, for Brahms. It comes to a wonderful, decisive close.
Brahms: Trio for Piano, Violin and Cello in C Major, Op. 87, first movement
Brahms turns to A minor for a theme-and-variations movement based on a tune with a Hungarian flavor. The first variation at 1:19 is desolate. The second variation at 2:39 is a bit more dance-like. The third variation at 3:51 sounds like gypsy music filtered through Bach. At 4:54 the fourth variation is in the major. The fifth variation at 6:15 returns to the minor and spins the melody in triple time. It ends peacefully.
The scherzo is in C minor. The middle section is one of Brahms’ most magical moments. He writes a waltz in C Major, but not like Johann Strauss. It’s beautiful, and you don’t want it to end. But being a scherzo, it must.
For a finale, Brahms sets a carnival to music.
