Johannes Brahms was incredibly prolific, as has been Deutsche Grammophon in their recording of his masterworks. This 46-CD set in a handsome cube is probably the most distinguished Brahms set that will ever be produced. The booklet gets into great detail about everything you’ll hear; highlights include Herbert Von Karajan’s 1977 cycle of his symphonies (Berlin Philharmonic); orchestral works by Claudio Abbado and the Vienna Philharmonic; piano concertos by Maurizio Pollini; cello sonatas by Rostropovich and Rudolf Serkin; solo piano pieces by Barenboim; lieder featuring Jessye Norman; violin sonatas featuring Pinchas Zukerman, and more!
The entire set is presented in a handsome cube with a lid (not lift-off), and the CDs are easily accessible in individual card sleeves. In addition, a booklet provides the complete and detailed track listing.
Highlights include:
- Complete Symphonies with Herbert von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic
- Orchestral works with Claudio Abbado & the Vienna Philharmonic
- Piano Concertos with Maurizio Pollini
- Violin & Double Concertos with Anne-Sophie Mutter & Karajan

Concerto for Piano no 2 in B flat major, Op. 83:
“Maurizio Pollini gives a magisterial account of the Second Piano Concerto.” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 2707 127
Hungarian Dances (21) for Orchestra, WoO 1:
“The playing of the VPO under Abbado is altogether exhilarating and sparkles like a good champagne…” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 410615
Concerto for Violin in D major, Op. 77:
“… we have a fiery bravura performance in which the soloist is very much centre stage with Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic in one of their most glowing Brahms performances…” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 2532 032
Symphonies 1-4
“The playing of the Berlin Philhamonic remain uniquely cultivated: the ensemble is finely polished yet can produce temendous bravura at times, and there is no lack of warmth.” — Penguin Guide, reviewing DG 453097
Quintet for Piano and Strings in F minor, Op. 34
“In this recording I am confident you will find an exceptional degree of inspiration in both the music and in the way it is played. All four movements have an almost mesmeric tension, a positively creative musicality; your attention is gripped, your absorption demanded as of right.” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 2531 197
Cellos Sonatas 1 and 2
“The partnership of the wild, inspirational Russian cellist and the veteran Brahmsian, Serkin, is a challenging one. It proves an outstanding success, with inspiration mutually enhanced, whether in the lyricism of Op. 38 or the heroic energy of Op. 99.” — Penguin Guide, reviewing DG 410510.
German Requiem, Op. 45
“Despite the general mellowness and ease of Giulini’s interpretation, the performance’s most striking feature is the singing of the two young soloists with their clear diction and intonation and general naturalness of utterance.” –Gramophone, reviewing DG 423574
Alto Rhapsody, Op. 53; Nanie, Op. 82; Song of Destiny,Op. 54; Rinaldo, Op. 50; Triumphlied, Op. 55
“Sinopoli and his forces turn in reliable, often imaginative performances of various dramatic and choral fragments from the 1860s, 1870s and 1880s, where we find Brahms, ever the ambiguous figure, appearing as Hellenist, hedonist, and Stoic.” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 419737
String Quintets, String Sextet, Clarinet Quintet
“The Amadeus have warmth and wisdom, and interpretatively they do not put a foot wrong.” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 419875
Various Lieder
“Jessye Norman has the warmth and expansiveness for the grander songs, but she can also lighten her voice for “Gold uberwiegt die Liebe” (Op. 48 No. 4)…For Norman’s particular admirers but also for those who had not previously associated her talents with Brahms Lieder.” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 413787
Die schöne Magelone, Op. 33
“The Magelone Lieder…are a neatly self-contained cycle, and the partnership of Fischer-Dieskau and Barenboim makes the most of their virtues while containing the sentimentality that can in lesser performances threaten them.” — Gramophone, reviewing DG 410644
