About

CPO presents both of Brahms’ Serenades performed on historical instruments.

Brahms composed the works early on in his career. The first serenade has symphonic proportions while the second is on a much smaller scale, both in length and instrumental scoring. In it Brahms does entirely without the violins and relies on wind instruments to take the melodic leads.

Capella Augustina was founded by Andreas Spering in 1996 to perform baroque operas and the great oratorios of Viennese classicism in keeping with historical performance practice. This disc marks their first recording of nineteenth-century works.
