Brahms on Bass



“For me, almost only the bass is of any significance. It is sacred to me and is the solid foundation upon which I tell my stories. What I do with the melody is only a game, a spirtual game. For over a given bass line I truly discover something original, I give to it new melodies, I create”.


Johannes Brahms
Vienna, February 17th 1869
