Dates
What do the dates refer to? My Dover copy of Op. 52 says "1868/9". Could this be the year it was composed, while 1874 was the year of publishing? &mdash; Sebastian (talk) 19:38, August 1, 2005 (UTC)

O schöne Nacht
You're missing one song, O schöne Nacht. I'd add it, but I don't know how to cite my sources. snowflake7


 * It's Opus 92 no. 1. The list doesn't give the individual song names for publications of groups of songs (of course we could, and it might be a good idea!) Antandrus  (talk) 00:13, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Souvenir de la Russie
The DG set contains this work with a subtitle "Transcriptions en forme de fantasies sur des airs russes et bohémiens pour le piano à quatre mains". Six movements being
 * 1) Hymne national russe de Lvoff
 * 2) Chansonette de Titoff
 * 3) Romance de Warlamoff
 * 4) "Le Rossignol" de A. Alabieff
 * 5) Chant bohémien
 * 6) "Koca" Chant bohémien

The only original with which I am at all familiar is the first. The recording I have of that lasts 3'26" and does strike me as a fantasy rather than a simple transcription. But this conclusion would be original research and unreliable in the absence of a complete version of the original with which to compare it. If only Putin didn't reinstate the Soviet anthem...--Peter cohen (talk) 11:15, 6 August 2009 (UTC)


 * See also my post from 3 October 2007 @ Talk:Johannes Brahms/Archive 1, which so far has not received any responses. -- JackofOz (talk) 12:38, 6 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Well this at least increases the evidence base. It strikes me as apprpriate to have it recorded somewhere that this is a putative piece by Brahms. And this page sounds as good as any. BTW I've had difficulty in following some of the links you give. Do they confirm who all the original composers are? Lvoff obviously has to be Alexei Fyodorovich Lvov. "Titoff" could be Alexey Nikolayevich Titov or his son Nicolai Alexeyevich Titov or other members of the family. Warlamoff is maybe Alexander Egorovich Varlamov, and "A. Alabieff" has to be Alexander Alabiev who doesn't have an article but his "nightingale" (i.e. the same piece) is mentioned in two of our artcles --Peter cohen (talk) 13:08, 6 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Are you able to add this based on the sources you have available? Googling suggests an Anhang number 4/6 or IV/6, sometimes with an indication that the attribution to Brahms is spurious. However, it does suggest the possibility of listing all the Anhang works as a sepaarate section if someoen ahs access to a list.--Peter cohen (talk) 10:55, 17 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Very belatedly: see Alexander Alyabyev. --   Jack of Oz    ... speak! ...   08:44, 11 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Good to see it. Are we adding this or prefereably all the Anhang works to this page?--Peter cohen (talk) 13:10, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Works with Anhang numbers
Further to the above, I've now found where 159 works with Anhang numbers are listed. Anyone got the German to tell what the various annotations and section headers mean?--Peter cohen (talk) 11:05, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

IMSLP Link
Hello, Can someone add the IMSLP link for the list of compositions in the External Links section? IMSLP Link thanks Prophetoffrivolity (talk) 13:10, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Large
This page is a bit large. I will split it. - Gus (T, C) 2011-10-26 21:23Z
 * Keep the opus list together, and the 'by genre' list together, if you do. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ (talk) 22:08, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
 * This should be fine, I think: List of compositions by Johannes Brahms by genre; List of compositions by Johannes Brahms by opus number. - Gus (T, C) 2011-10-26 22:15Z
 * I will blank the redundant text and add links to the new articles. - Gus (T, C) 2011-10-26 23:46Z


 * So, really, it's now a non-functional page. At best a disambiguation page and should be categorised accordingly.  --  ♬  Jack of Oz  ♬  [your turn]  06:09, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
