Sonatas for Piano and Violin-Johannes Brahms began to manifest a keen interest in the genre of the violin sonata at an early age. In fall 1853 he offered the Leipzig publisher a violin sonata in a minor. The work was turned down however and the self-critical Brahms must have destroyed it himself later. He ultimately wrote his three major sonatas during his years of maturity: op. 78 in the summers of 1878/79 opp. 100 and 108 in the summer of 1886. The Scherzo in c minor was Brahms’ contribution to the violin sonata which he composed jointly with Robert Schumann and Albert Dietrich in 1853 as a surprise gift for the violinist Joseph Joachim and which is known under the name “F. A. E. Sonata.”With its sharp contrasts between the furious Allegro and emotional Più moderato sections the Scherzo piece is a beloved bravura showcase.

Italian/English. Translated by Giacosa/Illica. In 'Tosca' Puccini explored the dark side of human emotion a marked change from the late-Romantic sentimentality of 'La Boheme'. Also in contrast to 'La Bohème' where the villain was fate and so the stage action was minimal both heros and villains are humans who struggle on stage and the clashes are always between single individuals. It is a story of cheating and doubt - nothing seems honest and direct even love is troubled by jealousy. Thisis the Schirmer Ediiton of the Libretto in the original Italian with an English translation by John Gutman.
