Talk:Gaudeamus igitur, Op. 80 (Johannes Brahms)

From ChoralWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

No genuine Brahms

The page lists two entirely different settings which can’t be set by Brahms. His ‘Academic Festival Ouverture’ (composed for full orchestra) does not contain a choral part—Brahms only cites the Gaudeamus theme. The arrangements listed here can’t even be derived from the orchestral score. I suggest to move the contributions on this page to Gaudeamus igitur (Anonymous) as Brahms’ authorship is in reasonable doubt, and remove the entries from Johannes Brahms and Johannes Brahms – list of choral works respectively. —Robert Urmann 11:27, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
