Quartetto Italiano (1971): Brahms String Quartet op. 51 n. 2 in A minor

[@fransmeersman2334]

What an absolute magnificent performance, simple the best !

[@marinacaracciolo3161]

Interpretazione sublime di questo secondo gemello dell'op. 51. Pur fra le molte belle esecuzioni, soltanto il Quartetto Italiano sa prendere per mano l'ascoltatore e introdurlo nel palazzo incantato della musica di Brahms, facendogliene osservare ogni meraviglia, evidente o nascosta che sia. Il risultato è che non si vorrebbe uscirne più...

Son d’accordo. Di molto. Sí, è sublime. Qui vi è del corpo e dell’anima. Piú del corpo che ha vissuto. Ufff… che pezzo grosso di musica!❤

[@TheJamesalden]

There's hardly anything quite like a string quartet; particularly that of one such as Brahms...Perfection!....Thank You!....

[@pepepombal6448]

Yes! Impeccable!❤

This wonderful piece evokes so many fine memories specially this performance by Quartetto Italiano.

ALWAYS THE BEST. CONCENTRATION AND MOVING DEPTH.

Tuve la oportunidad de asistir a un concierto en 1966 en la universidad de Duke de este magnífico conjunto de intérpretes que desgraciadamente ya nos han dejado, pero nos quedan sus brillantes grabaciones.-

Thank you.

Best interpretation ever!

Unique quatuor à jouer sans partition aussi bien pendant les concerts qu'en enregistrement studio...Aucun quatuor encore aujourd'hui n'est capable de faire cela,,,meme les meilleurs actuels...C'est dire de la grandeur du quartetto italiano.

Splendid

A closely knit quartet - lovely. Someone said the woman was married to all three of the male members, though not at the same time. I have yet to have it confirmed.

[@samgoldberg2080]

Yes, Elisa Pegreffi (vln 2) was married to Paolo Borciani (vln 1). She's a great player, and especially assertive and expressive for a second violinist. Good stuff.

[@bortizbortiz5278]

I heard Viola player got married to all members from the Quartet (in different periods), not sure if Quartteto Italiano but an Italian quartet. Which has nothing wrong with it and proves explicitly "chamber music" is like having a family :p

[@fierywomanpacnw7004]

No, it was the second violin who was married to the first violin and the cello.

[@bortizbortiz5278]

@@fierywomanpacnw7004 Now I get it, thank you much! in the orchestra would be like getting married with your stand partner - if comes to the string section of course.

[@Mozartiano42]

It is the first Violin , Paolo Borciani who got married with the second violin, Elisa Pegreffi.
