Pages: VI and 216. Classical. Study score (paperbound). 216 pages. G. Henle #HN9245. Published by G. Henle (HL.51489245). ISBN 9790201892450. UPC: 884088183653. 6.75x9.5x0.565 inches.Piano trios belong among the great genres of Classical chamber music, and Brahms, too, turned his attention to this genre early on. He wrote his opus 8 in fall and winter 1853/54, thus at the age of 20. The two other piano trios were created 28 years later, namelyop. 87 in C Major, and 32 years later, op. 101 in C minor. Brahms was working on another Trio, in E flat Major, at the same time that he was working on the C Major Trio; however, it seems to have been destroyed. He returned to his first piano trio in 1889 and revised it so thoroughly that he wrote to Clara Schumann: “I have re-written my B Major trio.” The Henle Urtext edition reproduces the second version of the Trio op. 8 (published in 1891) first, then follows this up with a reprint of the first version in its Appendix.
