Brahms had in fact wanted to stop composing in 1890, but his encounter with the clarinettist Richard Muhlfeld inspired him so much that he produced several works in a row for him over a brief period of time. The melodious Quintet op. 115 has been popular with musicians and audiences alike since its premiere in 1891. Even prior to printing - and presumably with a view toward further dissemination of the work - an alternate version was written with viola instead of clarinet, premiered by no less than Joseph Joachim and authorized by Brahms. The Henle study edition, revised according to the text of the New Brahms Complete Edition, thus also documents for the first time the viola variants of the solo part in the ossias. In a brief preface, editor Kathrin Kirsch provides insight into the genesis of the work and discusses interesting variants of transmission in the Comments.

The number of well-known clarinet quintets is quite small. The only major composers whose clarinet quintets are relatively widespread are Mozart, Brahms, Weber and Reger.The composer Johanna Senfter (1879-1961) from Oppenheim admired the music of Johannes Brahms and of Max Reger who was her teacher. Her chamber music œuvre conveys a certain closeness to the clarinet. She even wrote a Sonata for clarinet, viola, horn and piano, op. 37, a Sonata for clarinet or viola and piano, op. 57, as well as a Trio for clarinet, horn and piano, op. 60.Continuing the historic line of Brahms and Reger, the clarinet quintet is steeped in the harmony, compositional style and expressiveness of her teacher Reger- a style which she developed even further and increased in expressiveness. This quintet is, without doubt, a valuable addition to the repertoire.

Wolfgang Meyer and the first violinist of the Cherubini Quartet, Christoph Poppen, have critically examined the sources of the two famous clarinet quintets by Weber and Brahms. They have also provided - in parentheses - suggestions derived from their own concert experience.
