Brahms Sonata f-Moll op. 120 nr. 1 - Clarinetto e piano

[@hannaabril4050]

My first love was the clarinet. When I was a little girl I watched this video infinite times crying my heart out for such glorious music. Although I didn’t pursue a musical career, this instrument stuck with me through life. A coupe of years ago, I was holding a theater Master’s degree entrance exam at a prestigious university in Berlin. That very same day they told me I didn’t get in. So before leaving the city, I wandered through the halls of that historic building. Suddenly, I started hearing the melody to the second movement of this sonata. I followed the sound. When I found the door it came from, I read the following: “Prof. François Benda - Music Studio”. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I stayed for an hour hearing across the door how he tutored one of his pupils. Never saw him but it was more than I could ever wish for. My heart was full with nostalgia and joy. That was one of the most unfortunate but still fortunate days of my life.

it was a romatic story

I remember him as a child, in Brazil, where he grew up, as his mother is Brazilian.

Bach, Beethoven e Brahms. Le tre B della musica tedesca!!! Esecuzione splendida che rende appieno la malinconia della musica del Grande Maestro di Amburgo!!! Io da quando ho suonato il 1 libro delle variazioni su un tema di Paganini al diploma di pianoforte nel 1984, ho mantenuto intatta la mia venerazione per Brahms! Grazie. Giuseppe Perego Monza

Stupenda interpretazione sonata op 120 nr 1 clarinetto e piano di Brahms

[@nervenerd]

Brahms often stayed at the Schloss Elisabethenburg, in Meiningen. In fact it was there he was inspired, by the von Weber clarinet concerto and the Mozart clarinet quintet, to write his late masterpieces for the instrument, among them this sonata.

Thank you❤ Stupendo. ❤

[@winks478]

Can you please upload more of Francois Benda's Clarinet playing. Love his sound.

[@winks478]

I would love to hear Francois play Brahms Sonata op.120 No.2.

[@hudsoncampos5976]

Wonderful 😍😍😍👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@danbrown4090]

Meravigliosa!

[@tomlarussa8300]

I’ve never heard the piano accompaniment played better than what I saw in this video. I include myself as one I’ve heard. I will endeavor to play it this well. Probably not gonna happen. But I’ll try.

[@DavidBacas-ew3uc]

I agree with your assessment of the pianist! Many yeara ago, I was desperate to play a chamber piece with an instrument other than violin, so I found this and began. I nievely underestimated the difficulty of the piece, but enjoyed every minute of fighting with it! I am also constantly amazed at how much better Brahms sounds in person vs a recording. Even more so than other composers!

Meraviglia....

wonderful!

Inspiring ...

[@jeffhoward5910]

Great playing!!! Interesting - a kind of French sound on an Albert clarinet? Anyway, who cares about stylistic traditions - great playing is great playing!

[@kexu3087]

Jeff Howard I think he plays a reform boehm

[@gonzandres1999]

why the pianist looks so small?

[@chokibert]

Could it be that Mr. Benda is at least 6 ' 6" tall??

[@knd1940]

@@chokibert That's also why the clarinet looks so small, like an E-flat.

[@jeffreyjeziorski1480]

That Glenn Gould posture.

[@georgesbataille946]

Why is this clarinetist playing with e-flat clarinet?

[@Feisenbach]

What are you talking about? It's a b-flat clarinet as usual.

[@陳衍翰-f5v]

Feisenbach it s a joke..

[@tselyakov]

Who would have predicted that Britney Spears’ Toxic and butts would be used as an introduction to one of Brahms’ last masterpieces. 😂

Consiglio da amico:" restate in Germania!! L'Italia dai tempi di Helmut Walcha che l'ha definita il paese del chiasso,è molto peggiorata!!! Avete seguito l' ultimo festival di Sanremo,no?" Giuseppe Perego Monza

[@matheusladeia1598]

reafirmo. escola ardida. devia pegar a partitura e se concentrar no som. muita pressao nos pianos , so sabe tocar ardido.kkkkkkkkkkk

[@danyelnicholas]

the empty hall sounds terrible. If this is in Meiningen, why are they playing on inauthentic equipment? Mühlfeld's clarinet is kept quasi next door. There are also excellent replicas at the correct pitch of 435 hz. I doubt that Brahms would have come out of retirement for clarinet playing like that. All that embarrassing body movement can't cover a quite disappointing listlessness. Listening to Leopold Wlach by comparison makes that quite clear.

[@jeffreyjeziorski1480]

Picky, picky

[@matheusladeia1598]

não sabe tocar piano, escola ardida e deve ser porque aperta a embocadurakkkkkkkkkkkk
