[@lcomfort8683]

One of the best musical groups around!

[@leviwoodall8472]

Completely speechless after hearing that second movement..

[@He_Who_Shapes]

The 1st violin is a real crush in here

[@Rx-mn5fv]

Probably the most emotionally powerful rendition of this magnificent Quintet that I have ever experienced .For me, the greatest string quintet ever written. I am indebted to you .

[@raztube90]

The greatest love the greatest sorrow.

[@richardwalker9826]

it gets very intense at times - the passion is definitely there. a long masterpiece by Schubert performed by master musicians !!!!!!

[@charlescalvert8647]

Magnificent performance of my favorite Schubert piece, I was left speechless and in tears.

[@sltstanford]

This is pure gold. The adagio, especially, is hauntingly beautiful. Great job to the Dovers and a big thank you to Tippet for sharing!

[@He_Who_Shapes]

12:38 The guy at the back seems to enjoy it the most

[@FlexingClassicalMusic]

The complexity and precision of classical compositions showcase the masterful skill of the composers. The intricate interplay of instruments, the meticulous attention to structure, and the depth of musical expression reveal a level of craftsmanship that is both awe-inspiring and humbling.

[@saea58]

I disagree with the criticisms. Who cares about the rules? The story they tell with the very dramatic sound pictures is breathtaking and very beautiful! I enjoy it very much. ❤❤❤🌷🌻🎻

[@Ashley-q4n6y]

The Dover Quartet, certainly do this great work by Schubert justice . Truly amazing performance!! Thanks

[@luisdiazlopez3712]

This is the Everest of all occidental music.

[@johnsimon8438]

Just of occidental music?

[@Madaduxum]

It is the Pompeii of all Chamber Music.

[@MiguelÁngelLópez-BoadoSerr-j2o]

I agree with you‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

[@jessiemcneel2138]

Coming back to this performance again and again❤

[@MT-ty7cd]

You have a grateful fan for life. Truly astonishing, You've replaced my lifelong obsession with the Lindsays

[@wolfganggingter3131]

Here you can hear a world-class string quartet (quintet) who feel the sensitive compositional understanding of Franz Peter Schubert. He is and remains the master of the song and you can hear this reference in every piece he has composed. The Dover Quartet is reminiscent of the legendary Guaneri Quartet and the equally legendary Melos Quartet. The special thing about you is your feeling of harmony with each other, especially that of Milena Pajaro-van de Stadt. You have to have heard them in a small group at a live concert, as we were able to experience, and you will understand what it means when the instruments merge and make the listener levitate.

How wonderful! Thank you very much!

[@cesarvallejolopez]

Trully outstanding :) One of the best performances I've ever heard of this all-time favourite amazing piece of art :)

[@jorgeezq1318]

Maravillosa obra de càmara de Schubert. De las más grandes escritas jamás, junto a los quintetos Kv 515 y 516 de Mozart y los últimos cuartetos de Beethoven. Exquisita versión de The Dover String Quartet. Schubert en estado puro.

[@melindayin2705]

D.956, Dover Quarter, and Haimovitz - all my faves in one place! Thank you ❤

[@paoloardinghi3379]

Bravissimi 👏👏👏

[@ClassWalton]

Speechless. Thank you.

[@gianfrancobenigni2881]

Strepitosa interpretazione del quintetto in Do di Schubert, che personalmente considero la summa della capacità artistica e creativa dell'essere umano.

[@johnsimon8438]

Superb and best in these wonderful young hands

[@richardwalker9826]

thanks for sharing this wonderful performance. great audio and video, they did a good job of hiding the microphones. Milena adds so much beauty that without her it would far less interesting to me.

[@Madaduxum]

Excellent finale movement especially, it seems best loud with very sharp impactful rhythms. This is my first time hearing it, amazing.

[@He_Who_Shapes]

Listening to this piece after Shostakovich quartets is a real rest for one's ear. Life seems so easy then

[@MaxPower-grrl]

I still use paper sheet music too. Great performance!

[@Arteshir]

Fantastique, Sublime piece; and clockwork precise performance

[@maxfochtmann]

[@luisdiazlopez3712]

Two cellos, only one cello and double bass, a string orchestra with four cellos, two double bass, ten violins and six viola. This master work admits diferentes versions and diferent aproachs witout loosening his dramatic character.

[@danilorainone406]

on the backside of an old vinyl record is an account of schubert playing in his fathers group if musicians,franz being the far better musician than his father,an error was heard in his fathers reading of the notes franz alone could pick it out,and his father was the culprit,,franz would holler out 'sir sir ,, there must be a mistake somewhere!!'' not directly challenging his dad

[@jonobester5817]

THe viola has the hardest part. Same with the Ravel Quartet.

[@anacoman3265]

The Dover has become my favorite contemporary quartet, and with their guest cellist, and here they play the C Major Quintet beautifully. My only criticism of this video is with regard to the overhead shots: I found them to be jarring and disconnecting distractions with no redeeming benefit.

[@pimogens222]

I agree, the music and interpretation, absolutely sublime. But hey, photographer, why all these completely aimless and random changes of cameras and shooting angles. At 1:52 you have the ideal. Keep it there, do not change. I want to focus on the music, I need not know that you have put a camera in the ceiling. Sorry, after a while I gave it up, too distracting.

[@deja.vunathan]

Completely agree. The performance is truly wonderful. But the camera angles - yes, absolutely. Especially at 52:00 - that part is so nostalgic. Definitely should have a camera angle showing the full ensemble at that point IMO.

[@BestAmateurViolinist]

No downward slides in Schubert, please. It's about charm, not schmaltz. However, slides going up to the pitch are okay. The downward slide was an effect created by Enescu and to great acclaim, but it belongs to the time period of Debussy and going forward. Slides going down denote a sigh. Thank you very much for doing the repeat. This is far better than the Emerson quartet. I have a real problem with one of their violinists who plays consistently out of tune. No matter what piece they are playing. It ruins the entire group. Perfect! Intonation is the first requisite of great artistry and I've always known that fact, but it was also said by Mr Gingold during one of the masterclasses. Only the Budapest Quartet exceeds this recording. I would say remember to keep the heartbeat steady when you don't have the melody. Don't fudge around with the tempo because there is no marking to slow down in the middle of trying to make a phrase. That's creating the phrase where it doesn't exist. Playing sans vibrato doesn't really work when you're trying to convey charm. That "note blanche" concept did not come into classical music until about 50 years later after this quintet was written. The sf's should be done with a full bow but very fast and with very light pressure on the stick. It should create a "woosh" instead of an attack, but you did neither. Your 16th note before the half note needs to be crisp and short and at the tip. There are other comments I have but I'm going to stop here. Suffice it to say that if I've listened to it, it's very good.
