BRAHMS - Quintet in F minor, Op. 34

[@ericfricke4512]

This makes 2020 a bit better.

[@lisaragsdale1530]

And 2021 MUCH better.

[@sminkle12]

that counterpoint at the beginning is soo good

[@joeblo1130]

This performance is nothing less than stellar whatever bots/non entities are down voting it. I have been listening to this almost every day and it is soooo good

@ wtf is your problem? I think you have a problem!

[@kushgroover54]

@ how the fuck can you make this a political claim villainizing a subsidiary civil rights movement? please go away, this is a classical music comment section.

[@patricksmith1219]

Thank you for the notes in the description, it's really appreciated by relative new classical music listeners like me.

[@anne-louiseluccarini4530]

And by seasoned ones like me. Music lovers speak the same language.

[@richardlazar3218]

Thank you so much. Hard to find a performance like this nowadays, where the music comes first and isn't a mere show off. Precious!

[@Omacago]

What a wonderful, stunning and moving performance, so deeply musical and technically brilliant. A great gift to listen to and watch.

[@mattcrowe5190]

oh my, it's making an old man cry

[@FranckSonata]

Wonderfully performed, ahhh very beautiful indeed. So often overpowered and "noisy" both on record and live, but here the quintet is kept within the realm of true chamber music. Within, without limits! Less is more, as always. A treasure performance, the ensemble shall be very proud of their hard work to reach this level.

[@marinacaracciolo3161]

Una composizione grandiosa, colma di pathos, di inarrivabile capacità inventiva, che ha un solo precedente: il quintetto op. 44 di Schumann, che forse da questo di Brahms è anche superato!... Bella esecuzione.

[@jonathonglonek4063]

Fine work justly appreciated

[@fe12rrps]

Beautiful.

[@marshallcrow1257]

Best twisted bow flourish I've ever heard for this quintet at 42:17

[@shostycellist]

Pure beauty and the most profound of emotion.

[@agapanthus1953]

I doubt anyone has bettered Brahms' works for the particular combination of piano and strings.

Sublime interpretation for a wonderful piece of music !!! Congrats and bravo to all the artists and thank you all so much !!!

[@marklandgraf7667]

Violinist looks like he's working hard. Pianist IS working hard.

[@enriquesanchez2001]

BRAVOOOOOOOOOOO

So the performance of this piece in the twoset chooses is from COLLEGE STUDENTS (they're Curtis students I know)?! That is quite an achievement.

[@danmoran454]

@ Jimmy Perera: What does them being "college students" have to do with anything? Do you not know the audition requirements for being admitted into The Curtis Institute or any Conservatory or University's School of Music (especially a Conservatory environment)? And the level of artistry required for admittance? Some people seem willfully-ignorant in this regard. One can get some of the finest performances anywhere from students of this high caliber. It's not happening much these days, but in the past some Conservatory and or University Choruses appeared regularly with major symphony orchestras. New England Conservatory Chorus was a frequent invited Chorus of the Boston Symphony Orchestra for many years. The same for the University of Maryland Chorus and their legacy with the Kennedy Center's National Symphony Orchestra and touring international orchestras from the EU, such as the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Amsterdam. Again, students of the highest caliber.

@@danmoran454 Touchy... The man is expressing his appreciation and marvel at the talent of these young people, did he need to be schooled by you? Nah, but you schooled him anyway - good for *you*

[@danmoran454]

@@joeblo1130 "Schooling" is always bad isn't it? It didn't used to be. That's not what I considered myself doing however. I just happen to know quite a bit about the New England Conservatory and their history as well as other Schools of Music, since I'm a Conservatory graduate myself. I didn't know providing that information would be considered a negative thing and called "schooling." Such sensitive, delicate and touchy people on here who are afraid of new information. Providing new information and insight these days is highly frowned upon, no matter how it's done. But glad I could help.

[@anne-louiseluccarini4530]

@@danmoran454 Well, I enjoyed reading it, most interesting. But I admit that the word "wilfully" gave me a nasty little shock - it came over as aggressive, and I'm sure that wasn't your intention. You can't be wilfully ignorant of something you've never been told about.

Here!! Absolutely had to experience the full quintet in its blissful glory :3

For those of you who forgot, this was in their video titled “When was it composed?”.

[@maarjakahrik3614]

Yep! Finally found the right recording!!!

[@bugatti103]

bravo! excellent music

[@watutman]

Ahh, a performance in which the piano is not drowning out the strings.

[@darrellmoore1743]

WOW!!!!

[@JMARTIN1947]

If you were marooned on a deserted island would you rather have your hut-mate the piano player or the page-turner?

[@anne-louiseluccarini4530]

Both. But what if the piano had gone down with the ship? Whatever would the three of you do then?

[@donlhorn]

I would settle for the cellist in a ny minute Dh​@@anne-louiseluccarini4530

[@flaccidcucumber9009]

yes but who is the page turner

[@daniellynch5583]

She's the understudy who will be playing the piano next year.

[@dissilymordentroge5818]

As far as one can tell through the appalling MP 3 compression this is a great performance but how pray tell did the cello manage to buried?

[@electricflixproductions]

I know this is a very late comment. But it would seem that the Quintet was recorded from the front sides and not from above and sides as per DECCA standards (one of the best imo). This would makes sense as the cello's lower notes are rolled off behind the higher notes but the pianos reverberations are still present from its large nature.
