Robert Durso will discuss Brahms’ Intermezzo op.118 no.2. He will explore the fascinating musical and technical points that make this piece a remarkable favorite of the repertoire.

As one of the foremost authorities on the Taubman Approach, Mr. Durso will discuss how to use The Taubman Approach to help bring out the beauty of tone and necessary phrasing required. You will leave with a clear strategy for playing and teaching this beautiful work!
