Spirit of the Age

on BBC Radio 3

Romantic Sarabandes
More than any previous composer, Brahms involved himself in researching and reviving early music. To mark the centenary of his death this month, Bayan Northcott and Michelene Wandor look at the influence of Renaissance and Baroque music on Brahms's own work, with examples from Bach's Cantatas No 4 and 150; the Psalmen Davids by Schutz; and Brahms's choral and chamber music.
Repeated from Sunday 3.25pm
