This nuanced biography by acclaimed biographer John Worthen reveals a more complex and human figure--brilliant, passionate, and deeply committed both to his art and to those he loved. Brahms's lifelong devotion to Clara Schumann shaped much of his personal and creative life, while his refusal to conform to social expectations kept him at odds with the genteel world around him. Raised in modest circumstances, he remained proudly working class even as he became one of the greatest composers of his time. From the intimacy of the \"Alto Rhapsody\" to the humane power of \"A German Requiem,\" Worthen shows us the man behind the music--blunt, brilliant, and fiercely alive.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Worthen\u003c\/b\u003e is emeritus professor of D.
