Few composers could capture such tenderness and introspection as Brahms. The Intermezzi from Eight Klavierstücke, Op. 76 are miniature masterpieces, blending noble melodies, rich harmonies and moments of profound serenity into music of timeless beauty.

While not the easiest music ever written for the piano, these four carefully selected Intermezzi are among Brahms’s more approachable works, making them an ideal introduction to his richly expressive style.

This new edition has been freshly engraved and meticulously edited in keeping with the ethos of the Simplest Series: to provide piano students with carefully chosen repertoire, presented clearly and without unnecessary distractions, offering excellent value and, above all, playability.

The pieces are presented in approximate order of difficulty.
