Edith Mills (contralto)
John Sterling (pianoforte) Brahms's two Rhapsodies, Op. 79,
No. 1 in B minor and No. 2 in G minor, were written in 1879 and dedicated to Elizabeth von Herzogenberg. When Brahms sent the MSS. to her he wrote: '.Can you suggest a better title than Rhapsody? You cannot suggest a better dedication-that is, if you will allow me to put your dear and honoured name on this trash.'
