Before the publication of his Hungarian Dances in their original version for piano four hands, Johannes Brahms was hardly known to the educated middle classes, but the works ensured that the composer became a household name. In their subsequent orchestral versions, the Dances entered the repertoire of prestigious concert orchestras and, after music had become technically reproducible, went on to become even more massively popular. On this album, BR-KLASSIK presents Brahms'the Hungarian Dances Nos. 11–21 in their orchestral versions, in a studio production with the Munich Radio Orchestra under its former chief conductor Roberto Abbado.01. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 11 in D Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Albert02. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 12 in D Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Albert03. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 13 in D Major (Arr. for Orchestra by Albert04. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 14 in D Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Albert05. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 15 in B-Flat Major (Arr. for Orchestra by A06. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 16 in F Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Albert07. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 17 in F-Sharp Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by08. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 18 in D Major (Arr. for Orchestra by Antoní09. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 19 in B Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Antoní10. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 20 in E Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Antoní11. 21 Hungarian Dances, WoO 1 No. 21 in E Minor (Arr. for Orchestra by Antoní13222990066/104.28.159.215
