mit 70 Jahren hab ich dieses Quintett erst entdeckt…. was für ein Glück, ich spühre in jedem Ton meine Seele und Leben .

[@andrews582]

In my unlettered opinion, one of the best things Robert Schumann ever wrote!

[@raleedy]

And he wrote some really good pieces!

[@alisondening2207]

Yes

[@LindaMaguireNeuroMusic]

I LOVE the ovation at the end - what an enthusiastic audience - would have loved to be there in person myself....thanks

[@ralphberney7768]

A magnificent performance of great spirit and exuberant play, radiating the finest musical accomplishment, with a fine sense of commune between a grand quartet and brilliant pianist, all girded and inspired by the daring, emotional charge of Schumann on a glorious high

[@gerardbedecarter]

Schumann's sublime music performed wonderfully well !!!!

[@paulgibson2011]

What brilliant performers, making the music sing, thankyou. What abrilliant composer, making music that will last for ever thankyou Robert.

[@robertcohn8858]

A delightful performance of one of Schumann's finest works. The perfect balance of this ensemble creates a crisp and exciting musical experience. Bravo!

[@hansybits]

What a beautifull piece and what a beautifull ensemble. Thx.

[@janebrenner590]

Always unfailingly superb.

[@thethikboy]

Schuman authors such deliciousness - a feast of harmonies and exotic melodies - that typified the Romantic - and rarely heard since.

[@christinedaffe7649]

Magnifique.

[@MrFpam]

@mauricioD Plenty of piano! Very nice sensitive playing! A pleasure to hear the piano not overwhelming the strings who carry the melodic line much of the time! The balance is remarkably good!

[@rinacravero]

Bravo Daniil!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@rodstartube]

very good recording

[@OlegGoncharenko]

It is actually Schumann! Thanks a lot!

[@user-gz1wr2mi8z]

Amazing. I've never heard the Lovely performance like this before

[@regencefromond]

merci encore je ne peux aller au concert mais entendre ces musiques toutes aussi superbe et surtout Trifonov est remarquable j'aimerai aller le voir. Qu'il continue surtout qu'il ne s'arrête pas cela serai dommage pour ceux qui sont loin des salles de concerts.

[@rinacravero]

Muy bien! Lindo trío de Schumann

[@leaberenice1024]

Very good

[@michaelcooper3633]

Music starts at 1:33

[@kikideee94]

I have to agree with you. I think some of the angles are a little off. And the focus is often in the wrong place and doesn't match with the music. I'm no expert though. But I can see there's something wrong.

[@brianlemaire4221]

Starts at 1:35

[@zagonielod]

For God sake! Who was the camera director here??? Watch just from minute 2:30. While the cello and viola are playing the theme, the camera is stuck on the pianist, who nicely smiling plays eight notes accompanying the other two....

[@DanielBoonelight]

the "camera director"..? i think you mean video-editor. question: have you yourself ever edited a 5-camera operation of a piece that's over a half hour, that you possibly weren't completely an expert on? it doesn't take a huge brain to understand that it is nothing short of a very daunting task. who knows what they were even getting paid. i guaruntee the entire job took in the very least 5 hours of work and that is going fast. do you think the budget warrented your own preferences of a TV-network level professional highlighting of every main melodic line and nuance? seriously, get a reality check about freakin youtube dude.

[@vono4412]

Jesus!!

[@jeanpaulchoppart6818]

Begins at 1:34 .

[@michaelrogers5486]

damn that scherzo sounds difficult. why is Trifonov simplifying?

[@PGFTopera]

Trifonov is not simplifying anything. He tries to get the quartet members to take off their slippers, And it seems not to be easy.

[@paulinocontreras5595]

Why?

[@eliasmendes6841]

The pianist seems like Brandon Stark

[@DanielBoonelight]

interesting to me how the genders of the players here are the exact opposite of the agerich performance. though it doesn't matter one bit of course.

[@SarahJones-wy5us]

DanielBoonelight, Of course not.........

[@raleedy]

So then why remark on it?

[@DanielBoonelight]

@@raleedy because males and females come with different energies, as much as some in society might like to pretend they are the same in all things? that good enough of an answer for you?

[@DanielBoonelight]

i love the commenters here just waiting to pounce on any sort of perceived sexism the second one simply names reality. carry on good peeps.

[@raleedy]

DanielBoonelight So then your statement is just a lie?

[@mauricioD]

Not quite enough piano presence as the piece calls for, perhaps. Good ensemble playing, certainly better than from some recordings heard. The quintet is no easy task.

[@reinhardwerner1020]

One of the Great pieces, well played. The filming is really horrible, though. A director can support the music by showing those musicians to which the attention of an alert listener would go. This guy does exactly the opposite (or maybe it's just randomized). During the great viola solo in the second movement you don't see the guy even once. Pianist's hands are just irrelevant here. A fixed camera showing the whole ensemble would have been much better.

[@user-ze4wk2hy4d]

Ы

[@LazlosPlane]

Great performance; but looking at these guys is torture.

[@LazlosPlane]

@@emmanuelsebaali1767 Facial contortions, exaggerated bodily gesticulations...

[@kmpiano1]

Sorry, I'm not impressed with the playing/conception in general here. Yes, they are together. But I find it does have the unbridled passion that sometimes is necessary in Schumann. Everything is played very neatly here. But if you compared to live recording by Agerich, the whole group has more fire in their playing. Danill's solo/concerto playing is much more electrifying. Maybe the group wanted to play this differently...

[@Viktorvelat95]

kmpiano1 nah, they’re just nervous and chose careful tempos, it’s a huge pressure, you know, to play in one of the top 10 piano competitions in the world... but I agree, I prefer an electrifying version of this quintet with a lot more passion, my favorite recordings are with Argerich or with Pletnev

[@jorgealfredogonzalezgonzalez]

... música de cámara, algo más que un monólogo ...

[@freakificationism]

The pianist looks slightly sickly...

[@SarahJones-wy5us]

The coughing is disgusting.

[@Lepewhi]

I'm sorry, but I stopped watching when all I saw was the pianist. Don't get me wrong, but hardly saw the violist or cellist. It's chamber music, not a piano concerto.

[@dvdgrog]

It's also, incidentally, a piano competition. It makes sense for the camera to focus on the pianist. In any case, that's hardly a reason to stop listening to such an exquisite performance. Right?

[@Ala13ManOWar]

First violin please, buy a metronome...

[@jennkoh9420]

The tempo was fine

[@Ala13ManOWar]

+Jenn Koh I guess it's impossible to practice enough with an invited quartet inside a competition, but listen to 2º movement. Disgusting.

[@SarahJones-wy5us]

Ala13ManOWar ? ignorant and rude.

[@chrissahar2014]

Wow talk about playing that sucks the very life out of the piece - tempo so guarded as if to ensure no one gets a note wrong and the attack and tone color dull. I have hear upper level undergraduate conservatory students play this with far more fire passion and still maintain a brisk temp and good tone and general pitch accuracy.

[@jennkoh9420]

Go ahead, show us
