Saul Lilienstein will examine the relationship between these two great men, who were so dramatically different in their artistic ideals and personal temperament. Their lives, their music,  their passionate defenders and adversaries co-existed and contended in the public arena from the middle to the late 19th century. Brahms asserted the time-honored traditions of classical practice while Wagner overthrew them with the zeal of a revolutionary. Despite this, a common ground between these two masters of German Romanticism exists, for they both drew upon the rich heritage of Bach and Beethoven. Maestro Lilienstein will use great music to illustrate all the rivalries, all the parallels and the connections between their divergent styles.

A reception with wine bar and refreshments will precede the program.

Complimentary parking after 6 pm at 2001 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W.
