Heitor Villa-Lobos - String Quartet No. 5 (1931) "Quatetor Popular No. 1"

[@demetriussouza9006]

Esse quarteto fala da infância idílica que ninguém jamais nunca teve.

[@eurekarios2185]

Mds, que música linda!! Como eu fui nascer brasileira e nunca nem tinha ouvido Villa-Lobos?? #Perfeito S2

[@juliusseizure591]

Villa-Lobos' finest string quartet. Thanks for uploading.

[@felipepba1122]

Beautiful music by the genius Villa-Lobos!!!!!

[@kapellmeisterr]

this quartet and Prokofiev's second one have the same concept, they go perfectly together

[@gfweis]

This was a fine thing indeed to bring to peopl'e attention. I haven't been moved by V-L's work before, but found this string quartet very appealing. Thank you.

[@aramkhachaturian8043]

So ethereal

[@heron6462]

The opening theme in the first movement is from the piano piece 'Adeus, bella morena' - I recognize it as my daughter played it for an exam in 2005.

[@maribill]

But its origin, here and in the piano piece, is a brazilian folk song. I learned it as a child.

[@heron6462]

Noted. Thank you.

@@maribill Fui no Itororó (=

[@brunogripp]

Adeus bela morena is a Cirandinha on the same folk theme (Fui no Itororó), the title is derived from the lyrics of the song.

[@dmarianus1458]

Tão linda essa música. Modernismo pode ser belo sim.

[@nocturnallsnake4228]

Não é meio pós romântico?

[@pauloschmidt8136]

Villa-Lobos não compunha música modernista no sentido brasileiro. É uma mistura de erudito com popular, mas está mais para pós-romântica

Grande Villa!!!

[@aramkhachaturian8043]

feels like a dance between birds

[@littlekiwi9724]

Fun!

[@brunogripp]

Whats the theme starting in the Allegro vivace @4:25? It's vaguely familiar, sounds like something from Ernesto Nazareth, but I can't precesily pin down which pice.

[@overstuffedteddybear1274]

Is the phrase (by cello) at 1:02 used in a different quartet??

[@CarlosHenrique0171]

Sounds familiar

[@vpdemantova]

Reminds me one of Tchaikovsky variations from this piano trio, one of the most beautiful in my opinion

[@vpdemantova]

The Variation VI. Sounds very similar, the feeling and the idea 🎉❤

[@josephsummer777]

The second violin at 9 (around 2:20) doesn't seem tome to be apprehending the syncopation. meanwhile, I have to say that I haven't heard this piece before, though it does seem like I stole the passage beginning at 9 for my Dance of The Mechanics string quintet. And I deliberately modeled my Dance of the Mechanics after Brazilian music; so maybe my protestation that I haven't heard this piece prior to now will ring hollow.

[@CuartetoLatAm]

Hi Joseph; I can't see what you mean about the 2nd violin syncopations.... Where exactly?

[@josephsummer777]

Sorry to reply late, but I just go back from abroad. 5 measures after 9. The delay on the attack of the second violin seems to me to be late, a 16th late, so that instead of sounding like a 16th syncop, it sounds like an 8th syncop to me. I have to admit that the attack envelope on strings isn't that of a piano but I am not feeling the 16th delay here as written. I know from my own writing that my string syncops are never realized as crisply as I hear them in my head. Listening repeatedly to the measures in this passage, I can't be sure whether the syncop delay is an envelope problem or an attack delay.

[@MattWeisherComposer]

Joseph Summer I hear that as well.

[@LeonnardoMelo]

Fui no tororó....

[@Trombosilbo]

4:27 !!!!

[@vanessaviolino]

Alguém sabe onde consigo a partitura dessa música?

[@pfitzner1]

You can download the score here: imslp.org/wiki/String_Quartet_No.5%2C_W263_(Villa-Lobos%2C_Heitor)

[@BernardoSSimoes]

Ou museu Villa-Lobos! Você pode pedir pelo site.

[@안녕하세요-u1c]

7:10

[@officaldungeons]

12:59 writing those double stops for the viola instead of dividing it should be a crime. Also, is there an error in the score in the third measure? There’s definitely three notes being played and only two by the viola

[@fazeduni3228]

[@casrifay]

Which ensemble group is this?

[@bartjebartmans]

If you click on the tab "show more" you will see the info under the video. It is Cuarteto Latinoamericano from Mexico City.

[@Bowgun44]

Rip the poor first violin. Gets absolutely slaughtered at those 6-let sixteenths in the first movement

[@bartjebartmans]

Says a keyboard hero.

[@diegeigergarnele7975]

fourth movement is written to be as uncomfortable as possible for first violin
