42b - Johannes Brahms pt. 8 "The Scent of Lilac" 1g282l

Ep 42(b) - It is early 1865. Brahms\'s mother has just ed away. Filled with emotion he grudgingly moves from winter to spring, entering a long period of deep and private mourning during which he would retreat into himself for a time in order to gather his thoughts and energies, and orient them toward a grand act of artistic creation in which he would immortalize his beloved mother and through which his artist soul would be elevated and ennobled and made pure. \r\n -----------------\r\n Subscribe on iTunes and give us a 5-star review!
