“Johannes Brahms magnificent ‘Sonata for Violin and Piano in G Major’ serves as the inspiration for Brahms Takes (2012); an exploration, expansion and musical redistribution of sonic content into a radically different musical and instrumental framework. Thematic content from the original work are manipulated, added to or subtracted, while allowing for interactions and commentary in unique and different places.” L. Altman
