In this episode, we’re finishing up our 3-episode series on the great Johannes Brahms. We learned in our last episode about Brahms’s entertaining and well-known Hungarian Dances. They were often lively, exciting and fun.  In today’s episode, we’re talking about one of Brahms’s more “serious” works — something written because of his grief over losing a dear friend and his beloved mother.
