Brahms - Streichquintett n° 1, Op. 88

[@fredvacher3998]

Very interesting and inspiring work. Thank you very much.

At B (2:21), second violin plays G-natural instead of G#, inadvertently turning the harmony into V7/IV.

Thanks

What else would you find in a string quintet other than a second viola. That is usual other than a second cello as found in the quintet by Arensky, and that is rare.

The first movement too slow?

[@raymondgood6555]

Just right for my taste!

[@jtoddmusic7090]

It is an interesting question. I guess it depends on interpretation... and taste. I recall Bernstein having some slower tempos for the first movement of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and that also changed my perspective on the movement of that piece.

[@schubertuk]

Of course it is a subjective observation - but I do agree with you, this seems a little over-ponderous and tepid for what is one of Brahm's most joyful movements. They seem to have taken the "non troppo" (not to fast) to heart but ignored the crucial "ma con brio" (but with fire - or vigour - or energy - or spirit or however you like to translate).
