🇩🇪Johannes Brahms ： Eleven Chorale Preludes No.7 in e-moll Op.122

This is No. 7 of Brahms’s Chorale Preludes, arranged for solo piano by Busoni. Built around a chorale melody, it unfolds through a richly layered texture in which several voices overlap. It is important to sense the divisions between the individual chorale phrases while connecting the piece with a broad, sustained breath. In performance, the melody should emerge clearly from the resonance of the inner and lower voices, with careful attention to the movement of each part. Use the pedal to support the sound without allowing it to become blurred, preserving the quiet tension within the music’s weighty sonority and revealing its depth.
