Description
Brahms was at this stage of his career obliged to give lessons, to eke out a slender income of which the only assured item was his small salary as conductor of the Singakademie. A new pupil was consequently a matter of some importance, and he willingly under took to give Elisabet von Stockhausen some piano lessons. After a very short time, however, he asked to be released from the engagement, the reason given being that Epstein must necessarily feel injured at being supplanted, and with justice. In vain was it represented to him that Epstein still taught the elder sister Julie, and had besides more pupils than he knew what to do with. Brahms persisted in his decision, and the lessons ceased abruptly.
