Johannes Brahms String Quintet in G major Op.111, Amadeus Q.

[@nickyork8901]

I have adored this piece for many years. This is a spectacularly wonderful performance, goes right to the heart of it, from the opening cello theme to the lovely viola parts etc

[@bianchiviolin]

There is a brilliance and grandeur in this recording which is remarkable. I have many memories of live performances of the Amadeus and this recording recalls a South Bank concert with Cecil which included this Brahms and culminated in a sumptuous performance of the Mozart G Minor.

the supreme realization of the opening bars, i wish brahms could hear it.

I'm 72 and have been a classical music fan since my early teens. Why have I never heard of this wonderful work before?

00:05 1. Allegro non troppo, ma con brio 09:50 2. Adagio 15:28 3. Un poco allegretto 20:29 4. Vivace, ma non troppo presto

[@markdavis8143]

This is one of JB's very finest works. I love those opening bars - they kick you alert right away. But so many people don't know this piece. I'd been playing chamber music for about 30 years before I discovered it. What a find!

Thank you very much for warm comment! I wish you Merry Christmas!

@Maddox Caiden Thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :D Appreciate it!

[@maddoxcaiden3510]

@Jeffery Myles no problem :D

Eccezionale.Capolavoro assoluto dell'ultimo Brahms,supportato da un'ispirazione divina. Magistrale il primo movimento, ma tutto il lavoro è di una leggerezza e contemporaneamente una tecnica straordinaria.L'esecuzione è anche qui la migliore possibile. Complimenti ancora per l'inserimento.

Thank you for posting. I love their sound above any other string quartet I have ever heard.

[@travislaughlinj]

Same.

[@fredwanger9337]

Reconnecting after many years. They are the best!

[@tietjen666]

Heavenly. In every way. Thank you.

brahms and amadeus quartet...♥♥♥my best ever lesson was with brainin...singing the opening of a-minor quartet: "children, i like your playing, but you dont know what is a phrase...i will sing it for you..." after that i knew what is a phrase.

[@anug531]

breathtaking

[@MrVincent537]

Amadeus Quartett was with their hosted musicians like in case of quitetts or sextets one of the best quartetts ever. The most other formations sound so noisy and amusical at all.

[@MrGer2295]

Great Performance ! Thanks dear Ria :)

[@riabrezova8682]

You are always welcome, dear Gerhard! Have a nice Sunday!

[@morinoroba]

Wonderful piece and performance. I don't know why but when listen to the first movement of this piece, I always hear some Russian influence in it...specially on the second theme.

[@gwenaelherve5675]

C'est romantique à souhait !

[@elorengle]

ahhh I love the Schumann reference in the last movement!

[@1bateleur]

What’s the reference?? Would love to know :)

[@ElizabethPoet]

Which Schumann? There were two Clara and Robert, the former who was the better known in her time.

[@Maximilian2808]

@@ElizabethPoet the only reason we know Clara Schumann is that she was married to Robert Schumann. otherwise she would have been forgotten like thousands of second class composers of that period

[@otarberidze3353]

masterfully, beautifully, thoughtfully without gypsy.мастерски,красиво,вдумчиво без цыганщины

[@breannaanderson1763]

Damn

[@syncopate50]

Somehow the second movement strikes me as Mendelssohnian.

[@Maximilian2808]

6:29; 16:20; 17:29; 24:22

[@hornman11]

Any music lover should know this piece and this recording. So fucking nasty
