 Set two, performed by a reduced group -- as fitting for a sextet! -- was interesting for Brahms. It seemed to me that much of the writing for this work centered on the sonority of the viola and cello rather than the brilliance of the violins. And with six parts, it made for an interesting challenge to the ear -- just enough to keep the attention ready to jump at any moment towards the most interesting part! Makes me think I ought to give the old guy another chance! Set two, performed by a reduced group -- as fitting for a sextet! -- was interesting for Brahms.
