Brahms - Four Hand Piano Music Vol.6: Symphony No.1, Triumphlied

Brahms was an excellent pianist, as we can listen in his compositions, and whose output lasted all his life.
In addition to his solo works, he still made arrangements of his orchestral music and some chamber works for four-hand piano, in order to give them a wider audience, especially in, at the time frequent, musical evenings.
The set of his symphonies arranged by the composer for four-hand piano are a good example of that skill.
