Three of the greatest of their instruments together. THAT'S chamber music on the highest possible level.

[@timothybolshaw]

Music making at its best. Outstanding musicians who love playing with each other, and care deeply about the music.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

I believe no one can dislike the moment coming at 10:07. This music is made for listening, and then listening again.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

And thank you for this wonderful rendition, Yuja, Leonidas and Gautier!

[@LordGreystoke]

This is what I call beautiful classical music. Just excellent.

[@katerinadimitrakaki6983]

Sublime Kavakos as always, sublime trio, thank you so much for this wonderful performance!!

[@afip4n6doc]

I love when artists inspire each other within the moment…

[@fratello885]

Great - absolutely astonishing! Each one leading at the right moment, Leonidas especially in his emotionally difficult role at very crucial and sensitive passages... Thanks a lot for uploading!

[@felicededuyo7999]

Mystical synchrony. Thank you.

[@shardadrohani5317]

Music making at its best! Bravo Bravo Bravo

[@davidwdpytune]

Capuçon really showed the world that cello can be the protagonist in a romantic trio!

[@Desireyso58]

WoW!!! What a kind of musicians! Each one of them stands out in his instrument! I love Yuja Wang!!!

[@mariojorgecamposrodrigues3199]

Me too.

[@kelvinsmallwood6315]

Brilliant performance. Great to see Yuja again, this time as part of a Trio. Have subscribed.

“In memory of a great artist.” Goodnight Nikolai, You were special enough to your friends (especially P.I.T.) that a century later we can now enjoy this lovely memorial piece.

[@olynneshine7014]

Piano trios are most magical chamber music, this one is my favourite, and Beethoven’s archduke piano trio, brilliant.

[@davidecarlassara8525]

Thank you for playing without cut!

Υπέροχο... Υπέροχοι...

[@staffanolofsson8201]

I specially like Leonidas Kavakos playing in this. And the other two, Gautier Capucon and Yuja Wang, are not so bad at all.... Three hearts: ❤❤❤ from me!

[@marshallartz395]

*For me, Gautier Capuçon is the star here. He embodies the impassioned intensity of the music. His tone is unfailingly beautiful. I’ve never enjoyed Kavakos, and I’m beginning to understand why: He often plays the 1st note of phrases out of tune. It just bothers me. And Yuja Wang makes some odd rubato choices in her solo passages, but she is often very fine elsewhere.* *Here are links to 2 other performances you might also enjoy:* 1. Yefim Bronfman, Cho-Liang, Gary Hoffman kzbin.info/aero/PLYwq4o0XdGzh4S54ES1EYpQycCKhm-qDP 2.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

@@marshallartz395 Quick answer: After not liking Kavakos in different uptakings I here find him quite fine. Therefore my perhaps too positive words about him. About Gautier Capucon: I have nothing but positive thoughts about him. And about Yuja: She fits in completely, also in a trio playing.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

@@marshallartz395 I send you this, also with the same trio, but another composer. And I think I also enjoy Kavakos in this one, never estimating him so much before...kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHaWqXyXf9OfndU

YUJA IS SOO MUCH MORE IN DEPTH THAN THE REST OF THE POEPLE WHERE SHE HAS ENTERED THE HEAVENLY HEAVENLY WORLD OF THE CLASSICS & PERFORMED WITH SUCH GIFTE3D PERFORMERS . MUCH APPRECIQATED .

@05:34 anyone know what edition of the music score they were using?

[@staffanolofsson8201]

After listening to this a couple of times I will say that the first twenty minutes are gorgeous, but then, when it comes to the variations my interest is slowing down. Poor Tchaikovsky that had to write all these variations!

[@ElenaStartsevaSomun]

При всём моём уважении к музыкантам, не могу согласиться с их интерпретацией. Очень быстро, нет тонкого фразирования, характерного для Чайковского с выразительной интонацией.Одна голая техника.Даже величие куда-то убежало.В названии же есть подсказка - памяти Великого музыканта..Сражение трёх музыкантов за собственные лавры величия.

[@arkamukhopadhyay9111]

It's one of the most expressive versions I've heard.

[@komnata519]

Ни один исполнитель не может улучшить композитора. Это интерпретация, лишенная формальной строгости, стилистической выразительности и пронизанная лишними деталями, которые не только не обогащают интерпретацию, но превращают ее в нечто смешное.

[@vpdemantova]

@@komnata519can you recommend great recordings of the piece??
