A Romantic serenade that's almost a symphony: this is Johannes Brahms’s Serenade No. 1 in D major, Op. 11. Here, it's performed by the London Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Michael Tilson Thomas (1944–2026). The concert took place at the Barbican Centre in London in May 2023. (00:00) I. Allegro molto (11:09) II. Scherzo. Allegro non troppo (19:42) III. Adagio non troppo (33:44) IV. Menuetto (38:11) V. Scherzo. Allegro (41:10) VI. Rondo. Allegro For 19th century composers, Ludwig van Beethoven’s (1770–1827) monumental symphonic works were both an inspiration and an obstacle. While composers of this period were eager to write symphonies of their own, Beethoven's compositional standards seemed almost impossible to live up to. Johannes Brahms (1833–1897) was among them. He, too, wanted to compose symphonies, but was unsure how to approach writing a large-scale orchestral work. In 1857, the young pianist and composer secured his first permanent position at the princely court in Detmold. After studying the symphonies of Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) and the serenades of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791), he composed the first of his two serenades in 1857/58. In the 19th century, the serenade genre proved to be an ideal testing ground for aspiring symphonists. Brahms played the original four-movement version of his First Serenade for his friends in September 1858. The second version, expanded into a six-movement nonet, premiered in Hamburg on 28 March 1859 under the direction of his friend, the violinist and conductor Joseph Joachim (1831–1907). In December of the same year, Brahms began orchestrating the chamber work. The premiere of the final orchestral version took place in Hanover on 3 March 1860, once again under Joachim's direction. The Serenade No. 1 in D major, Op. 11 is a prime example of Brahms’s engagement with the two genres of the serenade and the symphony, and of his struggle to determine where the work belonged. For one thing, he initially titled the orchestrated version of the piece "Serenade," then "Symphony-Serenade," and finally once again "Serenade." The work’s structure itself also occupies a middle ground between symphony and serenade. While the first three movements are distinctly symphonic in character, movements four through six take the form of more typical serenade movements. The first movement opens with a folk-like horn theme accompanied by a drone bass, establishing a pastoral atmosphere. The second theme, with its syncopations and triplets, can be described as unmistakably "Brahmsian." The two themes develop into a standard sonata movement, which ends in an unusual way — although the orchestra appears to bring the movement to a close in the home key of D major, a playful flute solo leads it toward a light and cheerful conclusion. The second movement is in da capo form (Scherzo — Trio — Scherzo) and is predominantly melancholic. Only the Trio provides a somewhat brighter contrast to the otherwise subdued mood. In the third movement, an Adagio, Brahms develops a highly Romantic sonata movement through the interplay of two contrasting themes. While the first theme conveys a sense of solemnity, the second is another typically “Brahmsian” theme, characterized by a feeling of longing. The fourth movement is then a quintessential serenade movement. In da capo form, two minuets serve as a kind of evening serenade. The fifth movement is once again a scherzo in da capo form, while the sixth and final movement brings the serenade to a close with a rondo whose main theme resembles a cheerful gallop. The lyrical secondary theme is softer in character, rounding off the movement as a balanced whole. It would take almost 20 years before Johannes Brahms composed his First Symphony. Nevertheless, the Serenade No. 1 already contains many of the qualities that would later define Brahms as a great symphonist.
