In the later years of his life, in the 1890s, Johannes Brahms was inspired by the clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld to compose Trio Op.114, Quintet Op.115 and the Sonatas Op.120 – three gems in the Clarinet chamber music repertoire. Brahms also provided a part for Viola as an alternative to the Clarinet. The revision of this Henle Urtext edition of the Viola version of Op.120 is based on the musical text of the New Brahms Complete Edition and in many respects contains significant improvements: the original autograph was consulted for the first time, the newly set Piano score now contains the Viola part, and Viola players can benefit from fingerings and bowings by Tabea Zimmermann in the solo part.
