That may be my favourite of all of Brahms' chamber works.  Top 3 for sure.

I'll fill in the other two...String Quintet Op.111 and Horn Trio Op.40. How's that? 

[Karl Henning]

Mm, mm good, that Op.40!

There isn't a bad choice to make, Greg!

My other two (at the moment), are likely: String Sextet, Op. 18 and Clarinet (Viola) Sonata No. 1, Op. 120

Hi Sarge - continued my Wolfl listening yesterday afternoon w/ the 2 discs added above - also ordered the 'Symphonies' & 'String Quartets' discs that you've been showing in this thread - expect to enjoy!  Dave

Wait.  I thought Delius was the Greatest Composer Evah.  I didn't just dream that, did I?  It was Delius this and Delius that for weeks.   Was that just a nightmare I had after a bad meal?

Yes, it was a nightmare. But seriously, I revoked my opinion of Delius after months of careful listening and my emotions just got the better of me. Lesson learned here for sure. No, Delius is far from the greatest composer ever. I can't believe I would even make such a proclamation.

Yours too! We could probably spend hours creating combinations of Brahms top 3 chamber works.
