Summary/Abstract: This article brings to the attention of readers a musical work from the sphere of influence of the late Romantic period, a sonata for clarinet and piano that has enjoyed, over the years, considerable appreciation from music-loving audiences. At the beginning of this article, a brief analytical excursion will be organised, beginning with a presentation of the historical context underlying the composition of Johannes Brahms' Sonata for Clarinet and Piano No. 1 in F minor, Op. 120, followed by a brief presentation of the architecture of the constituent forms within this sonata cycle. The main body of the article contains an in-depth analysis focusing on Part I Allegro appassionato of the Sonata for Clarinet and Piano No. 1 in F minor, Op. 120. Through this analytical path, interpretative suggestions are presented in detail, in accordance with the specific rules of the Romantic manner of interpretation, together with a detailed analysis of the formal organisation of Part I Allegro appassionato, both at the macrostructural and microstructural levels, and an analysis of its harmonic language and texture.
