What reading level is Brahms book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

And if new music had been made for the opening verse, the phrase at the climax would have lost its point, for it must come in as a remembrance, not as a subject heard for the first time. The song, besides being, in the word of the refrain, " wonnevoll " in the highest sense, is especially interesting in the matter of form, for it belongs to a type which Brahms uses more frequently than almost any other, and which unites some characteristics of the " strophic " and the " durchcomponirt " classes.... Verses one, two, and four are set to the same strain (with a slight harmonic change in the fourth, but the other two having identically the same music) ; the third shows considerable thematic alteration and even development, so that the whole scheme is a kind of miniature version of the classical sonata-form, but built on a single theme instead of on two contrasting subjects. The sections of the form, viz., statement, repetition, development, and recapitulation, here correspond with the four stanzas of the poem.
