布拉姆斯於一八八六年完成《F大調大提琴奏鳴曲，作品99》，他一生曾為大提琴和鋼琴寫作兩首奏鳴曲，這兩首作品分別屬於布拉姆斯中期和晚期所創作之作品，呈現出他不同時期之寫作風格。本文研究布拉姆斯晚期的《F大調大提琴奏鳴曲，作品99》，探討此曲之創作背景、創作手法以及演奏技巧。本文將概述布拉姆斯晚期的室內樂作品，以及大提琴家對布拉姆斯作品的影響，並分析此曲之創作手法，分別論述發展性變奏和變化性節奏，最後將探討左、右手之演奏技術，提出一些演奏上之建議，希望有助於演奏者突破其技巧之瓶頸。本人期望演奏者在拉奏此曲時，除了具備良好的技巧之外，能更深入瞭解作品的內涵及所要表達之意念。

Johannes Brahms（1833-1897）composed the “Cello Sonata in F Major, Opus 99” in 1886. Brahms composed two sonatas for cello and piano in his lifetime. One of the cello sonatas that Brahms composed had been during the middle period of his life. While the second cello sonata had been composed during the late period of his life. These two cello sonatas showed different styles in different life time. This study is mainly based on “Cello Sonata in F Major, Opus 99”. It will explore the composing background and the techniques, as well as the cello techniques of this sonata.
In addition, the paper would initially mention the brief introduction to Brahms chamber music in late period. Moreover, the cellists who had been around Brahms had given him good advice to word his compositions and analyzes the creation technique of cello sonata in F major, with a focus on alternation rhythm and development variation. Lastly, it will explore the cello performing techniques. I hope it will be helpful to the performer and also the performer who plays the sonata would already have the good technical ability. Besides that, able to understand the details of the content in this sonata the performer would be.
