Talk:Piano Trio No. 1 (Brahms)

among the few works to begin...
Well, maybe prior to 1900. While "few" is subjective, the number seems much larger, as a percentage, after 1900 than before 1900 (though it is complicated by the many different ways in which even tonal works in the 20th century conclude, with a larger number concluding on an open-fifth rather than a major or minor chord, for example.)
