Brahms's style of composition was basically romantic in expression within classical structures.

If you mean what genres did he compose in, these are the principle ones:

Symphonies, concertos, string quartets and other chamber music, songs, sonatas and short pieces for keyboard. He did not compose music for the theatre (operas or ballets).

Brahms was a late romantic composer who reverted back to a more classical style. He devoted his major effort to traditional genres like string quartets, symphonies, and concertos. He liked to use sonata form, rondo and theme and variation forms; he did like miniatures though. Although grandiose compositions were popular in the romantic period he didn't compose any.
