Sextet in B-flat major, Op. 18 - String Sextet (Set of Parts)

Sextet in B-flat major, Op. 18

for Two Violins, Two Violas and Two Violoncellos

The two string sextets, Op. 18 and Op. 36 by Johannes Brahms are amongst the high points of the Romantic string repertoire and some of the most popular chamber music works of all.

The new Barenreiter Urtext editions, edited by Christopher Hogwood, are the first scholarly- critical editions of these much-performed works. The editor has taken all known sources into consideration including the versions for piano two and four hands which the composer wrote as well as a set of contemporary performing parts which offer variant readings and insights into performance practice during Brahms' lifetime.

Urtext edition. Set of parts. Study score is available separately.
