The gorgeous Nänie, composed in 1881 by Johannes Brahms, in memory of a friend, offers a timeless lament on beauty and loss. The romantic Liebeslieder Waltzes, Op. 52 by Johannes Brahms offer a wide ranging exploration on the topic of love, inspired by the folk songs and love poems of Georg Friedrich Daumer.
