Ravel's Piano Trio in A Minor - La Jolla Music Society SummerFest

[@michaelbruce1847]

Third movement....no words for the depths of emotions it holds...

[@rorokun_1666]

I’m in tears. This was marvelous

[@paoloadolforinolongo3970]

Wonderful Music by Maurice Ravel!

[@japhyriddle]

This is the piece of music that got me into classical music. Most classical I'd heard before just evoked the images of drinking a cup of tea with a pinky up. For this piece, you'd take the cup and gently cradle it before smashing it, and then pick up the pieces while crying, and then eat them while laughing or something.

[@balladin9200]

For me Gaspard de la nuit inspired me to play piano, I agree

[@pierreguinot9238]

Je comprends. Moi, ça m'a fait continuer à écouter. Ravel est un magicien, il n'a pas écrit énormément. Exigence de perfection. Solitude, mystère, âme d'enfant capricieux hypersendible et savant. Nous sommes quelques-uns à le mettre à part de quiconque. Un diamant. Oh c'est tellement pur.

[@theuniversity1234]

@@pierreguinot9238 so beautifully said. I should know more of him. He stands apart in so many ways. Wish I'd known him. will look for a biography. I should just find two people from Greater Boston to work on this, even if we can't do it justice1

[@odyseerecordings4331]

I fell in love with this piece the very first time I watched Un Couer En Hiver, and it still to this day moves me with its extraordinary passion.

[@vijinanadu1962]

It is called 今生情未了in Taiwan， Roughly translated as : I can't forget you all my life. It's in this fine French film that I understand French classicism in French literature, very Stoic and Romantic in character contrast.

[@Hando855]

The same thing happened to me some time ago, it feels more apt for Daniel Autiel's character even though Emmanuel B plays it.

[@johnlorenzen4633]

How does one have such an imagination to create something this cosmic. Mystery of genius.

[@Martyn-c5l]

One of the few people I'd like to travel back in time to meet

[@foodandtravelmom2241]

I come back and watch this performance. Amazing job

[@music-by1ou]

this is so beautiful. I cannot believe I looked over Ravel!

[@zigosepalum5641]

Très belle interprétation qui révèle, à merveille, les subtiles beautés de cette musique du grand Ravel.

Twenty-eight minutes of beauty from another time and place.

[@lindseyilsley8362]

Love this piece so much. Lamenting strings and hopeful keys... I first heard this (different performers) at Wilton's Music Halll in London about five years ago. It broke my heart. When the interval was called I realised I's been totally entranced the whole time, there were tears on my face I did not know I cried. Exquisite. This recording is perfection, the feeling is all there and that , for me with this piece, is all that matters!

[@brozors]

wow, you nailed the description perfectly! "Lamenting strings and hopeful keys" really sums up the essence of this work.

[@JJBerthume]

Simply marvelous! A brilliantly emotional and mysteriously genius performance of a brilliantly emotional and mysteriously genius piece of music by our good friend Maurice.

[@Kitsua]

Simply fabulous. Ravel was a master beyond compare. Bravo.

[@supermasterpip]

I love this piece..its wonderful and mysterious,and like all Ravel's music..Beautifully made...a minor masterpiece!

[@Rx-mn5fv]

Stimulating the imagination and relaxing at the same time. A marvelous piece of music played beautifully. Bravo!

[@cellosong]

Beautiful playing by outstanding artists of a truly monumental piece. I enjoyed every minute of this. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@wallacegrommet9343]

The interplay of instrumental voices in chamber music is enjoyable and beguiling

[@mjw12345]

Super thanks for the HD upload. It's uniquely lovely trio. In response to queries: Arianna Warsaw-Fan - violin Meta Weiss - cello Henry kramer - piano This info is given at 0:43.

[@jonathaneffemey4892]

Thanks for posting.

[@rezmogm]

This music was alive and passionate. That seems more important to me than a missed note or some other technical mistake..

[@ergbudster3333]

You mean there's little mistakes? Good! I like it even more then.

[@lsrecords2473]

Only the passion and love you convey!

Très belle interprétation. Cette musique est délicate, intérieure et d'une sensibilité extrême.

What a treat! Wonderful performance of a masterpiece.

[@ErichWr]

I will always love this piece....so sublime.

[@vKarl71]

Such a great piece. It astounds me that anyone could write something like this. So completely original. So magical. (It's also pretty amazing that anyone can actually play it.)

[@johnlorenzen4633]

Agreed!

[@D...921]

Piękny koncert!!!:)) Podziękowania!!:))

[@333mrwill]

Most enjoyable. Thanks so much for the posting.

[@sergioazevedo7390]

Wonderfull rendition of a masterwork of the XXth century, a very dificult but rewarding piece, perhaps the best piano trio of the first half of the XXth century jointly with Shostakovich's second piano trio!

[@EastPlanet]

Fantastic musicians.

[@sciandeco]

Listening to this, I imagine that people living a hundred years before are much more creative and noble than people living today. This masterpiece sounds like one created by a genius composer living 500 years later from 2022.

[@rainyday6430]

500 years? This was written in the 20th century!

[@randywest1185]

Superb peformance of a masterpiece.

[@richardlee4730]

sublime piece. heart-felt performances.

[@kuhske]

Thank you so much. :) Please upload more classical concerts. :)

[@staffanolofsson8201]

Unlike the terrible presentation this is wonderful music. Always a joy listening to this. So thank you Henry, Arianna and Meta!

[@colinmurphy2214]

Skip to 0:47 to avoid the intro which isn’t really an intro but the climax of the piece played out of context

[@MrDuffy]

how deaf can anyone be to put such an intro before that magic beginning... a complete misunderstanding of what music is

[@martyn447]

Wow so good😊❤

[@martyn447]

❤

[@edsonsales693]

This piece is wonderful! I love it since the first time I listened to it. And Ravel's piano (and Debussy's as well) is unparalelled in its crystal style, something like the very first rays of light ending a night. Discreetly amazing :-)

[@vijinanadu1962]

Only the French have this type of sensitivity ! Franck, Faure, Ravel, French mysticism.

[@miopaul4781]

great playing - and the violin-part of the beginning "Pantoum" is sooooo mean

[@canal-9389]

Un coeur en hiver .... In einem Kino in Wien lernte ich dieses wunderbare Trio kennen . Eigentlich hatte ich Karten für La Traviata in der Staatsoper. Aber ein Mitglied der kleinen Reisegruppe entpuppte sich als Opernfeind. Also Kino. Aber auch Ravel.

[@TheMarios2010]

Fantastic!!!!

[@samuelechiarelli9594]

Ravel is my fav

[@Robertolapinrapluie]

cooooool ! simple and clear

[@TheGaetano62]

amazing version..BRAVI!!!!!!

[@balladin9200]

Ravel made that advertisement as introduction so genius, it says it on the sheet music 'avec publicité'

[@pierreguinot9238]

Ça ne me fait pas rire

[@wontpower]

I'm not sure what it was about this piece, but I found it very relaxing.

[@ergbudster3333]

Amazing.

[@RVM777]

I love the harmonious dynamic and phrasing (except for some sections from the 4th part which I think the piano should be heard louder to create more dramatic effects). But overall, surely it demonstrate excellent skills of the true artist.. really adorable and breathtaking..!!

[@stephm0]

Music starts at 00:48.

[@josealbertocarneiro4702]

Sublime!

[@l2084]

I'm proud to be french when I hear this music.

Moi aussi !!

[@LakhnBer]

You have the right to be proud of this!

[@guillaumeblaque8978]

Moi aussi. So am I...

[@didierboudet88]

j'ai ressenti la même chose, 20 ans que j'écoute Ravel, j'ai découvert cette sonate dans le film de Claude Sautet. J'ai eu la chance de rencontrer le luthier qui a fourni et accordé les violons pour le film. Les Français ne sont pas très mélomanes, il faut bien le reconnaitre et c'est fort dommage.

[@vKarl71]

I'm proud to have ears when i listen to this music.

[@Butlinsgvn6]

Bravo!!!

[@edwingcarrenoyanez37]

SUPERB 👏👏👏

[@studentjohn35]

congrats also the sound engineer: All heard clearly, with no obvious microphones in the shot.

[@SpaghettiToaster]

They're hidden in the sheet music stands. This usually runs a risk of capturing a lot of chair creak and page turning noise, but like you said, they did a great job here recording a clean sound!

[@studentjohn35]

@@SpaghettiToaster Oh. I was figuring that he used some extraordinary long-reach transducers: a FLEA50, Neumann M150 or something along that line.

[@SpaghettiToaster]

@@studentjohn35 You can see the violin one at 1:15. The cello's is actually attached to the instrument, you can see it in the next shot, which is also very cool, never seen that before. I'm not sure if long-range microphones would be able to separate instruments enough for good stereo mixing. At any rate, they did a great job not picking page turning noise, no idea how they did it actually, especially for the piano.

[@massimopro7394]

La musica per un cuore in inverno come me.

[@Alejandro-Te]

It´s absolutely stupid to put an introduction with music before music. It really breaks the mood of the piece.

[@ergbudster3333]

I feel bad for you. You're obviously paralyzed so you can't just skip over it just everyone else does.

[@angelawhitfield5569]

Citriano Torres I think ur comment breaks the mood of the piece

[@guillaumeblaque8978]

I couldn't agree more with Citriano Torres.

[@ssrrapper]

There are worse things...for example 1. putting that introduction in the middle of the first movement and 2. ISIS.

[@geofra51]

Exquisite.

[@fredchopin2524]

nice music But that crass intro at the start throws the mood a bit. Although it is kind of quaint how its portrays a youtube channel like and olde worldy television channel.

excellent :) at letter 9, 4th mvt its a c# fot the cello though... she plays a c natural the whole way on the arpeggios...

[@stynway59]

There are the Durand editions, and then sometimes the UT.. his editors rarely got it all right

[@keesvanbochove4844]

To think Ravel wrote and finished this piece knowing that he would enlist in the French Army to fight the Great War. Such hopes, fears, passions, misery and dread but also great excitement and mystery.

[@theuniversity1234]

I didn't know that. Nothing like Great Wars. They keep coming. Music is the finest weapon to demolish wars.

[@ruohansun1710]

start from 0:45

[@rylinmariel6431]

Beautiful!!! Do you know who the personnel are? I googled Newbury Trio, and they don't have a page. A little more searching revealed that the cellist is Meta Weiss, but of the other two... (?) Going by appearance, it looks like the violinist may be Arianna Warsaw-Fan, as I saw pics of the two together on Weiss' twitter page. The two are, together, Duo W.

[@emeraldfire42]

Rylin Mariel 0:43 shows the musicians

[@diegoramil861]

9:16 how do you get that sound on a violin?

[@careinn10]

it's called an artificial harmonic, wherein the player touches the string very lightly in an exact node on the fingerboard while bowing very quickly and lightly. it's akin to a "flute" sound

[@diegoramil861]

Cool, thanks.

[@Mezzotenor]

Lovely! I shouldn't make fun, since I've been a page-turner, and it can be a bit scary if you're afraid of making a mistake. That said, I love the way the pianist's page-turner evidently didn't see the double-bar at the end and started to flip the page right at the last big keyboard run. Uh... isn't it a good idea to find out ahead of time how the piece ends?

[@Martyn-c5l]

Yawn

[@dameinoferrall2400]

In conjunction with the beginning of the third movement ... To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury Signifying nothing. - Macbeth (Act 5, Scene 5, lines 17-28)

[@fredchopin6506]

down vote for me, why intro this piece with one of its climaxes and a hammed up voice over? There is normally quiet before a performance, and this piece has a particularly sublime and memorable beginning.

[@ergbudster3333]

Dude. This is KZbin. Just skip over it. You can do that you know. Relief is just a button push away.

Il y a une chose que je ne comprends pas, c'est pourquoi la fin est "spoilée" avant le début de la vidéo ? :o

[@stynway59]

I dont think it's "spoiled" at all, merely an attempt to hint at what dessert might be, if you will allow yourself to be patient with the hors d'oeuvres, the entree, the entremet, in the interim

[@ShaharHarshuv]

the beginning part kind of reminds me of "windows to the past" from Harry Potter 3.

[@luisfeliperey]

Yeah, because Harry Potter was before Ravel

[@vKarl71]

Ravel was known to have been a Big Harry Potter fan. Also a time traveler.

[@muslit]

Why did the strings end down bow?

[@andyfield7397]

I hate cellos but in this composition and format of skillful players blends a glorious harmony that weaves its own audio tapestry through your ears and gently places it over the mantlepiece of your soul. Does for me anyway 😁

Bon, je réagis 11 ans après. La pub au début pourquoi pas pour une influenceuse... mais Ravel. Ravel c'est l'absolu silence avant. C'est l'absolu silence pendant: : le silence fait corps avec cette musique-là, c"en est une grande partie. Dommage pour une si belle interprétation. Bref quelques secondes de fureur. Un quart d'heure de méditation. Et puis : Ravel.

[@davidbarry8035]

Great music but annoying long advertising opening.
