Let's Dive into the Musical World of Brahms!

Did Brahms focus on programmatic music?

a. True

b. False

Answer:

Brahms's compositional focus was not programmatic music, it was absolute music.

No, the statement is false. Brahms's compositional focus was not programmatic music. Programmatic music refers to compositions that have a specific story, idea, or image associated with them, and the music follows a narrative or depicts certain events. Brahms's music, on the other hand, is primarily regarded as absolute music, which is written purely for its own sake, without any extra-musical associations.
