Mischa Maisky & Pavel Gililov: Brahms - Cello Sonata No. 1 in E-minor, Op.38 

i love how it’s super obvious when the videographer is not a musician lol. all the angles we don’t care about

My absolute favorite interpretation of this piece. I see this piece as someone falling apart and going through the pain of becoming whole again.

THIS VIOLINCELLO HAS THE RICHEST, MOST PROFOUND, AND COMFORTING SOUND IMAGINABLE. THE PIANO ALSO BEING IN PERFECT SYNCRONIZATION WITH THE CELLO--BOTH BRILLIANT.

FINALLY a cellist that doesn't take this unbearably slow!!!! Go Maisky!!!

Absolutely gorgeous performance. Totally weird videography.

Totally beautiful performance by both players. I do not understand how there was ever a time when I thought I did not care for Brahms.

AMAZING VERSION I AM TOTALLY IMMERSE IN THIS SOUND

The interpretation of Maisky is wonderful in that sense that he shoots the image of the nostalgic Brahms. His vision is lyric (what vibratos!) but fierce. This is the way how I feel this sonata. It seems me to be the Brahmian equivalent of the op. 69 of Beethoven. They are both in three movements, without slow movement ........

Absolutely wonderfully interpreted! I am short of words...just love it all!

This is a visual as well as an aural feast. If you worship cello technique, go watch a masterclass and miss everything else. If you want great music, direct from a great mind and heart, stay, watch (appreciate the pianist too, cello lover) and be ready to take the hit via this fearless camera work that delivers such passion to us! The complete involvement, control, attack and commitment of the players, not from a timid distance but close-up; the stirring, surging, mounting feeling, tossing us around like the sea with one great outpouring theme after another in mm1; the rewarding simultaneous views of both instruments, the stress and concentration of joint interpretation and projection. The delicate dancing in mm2, the vehement contrapuntal final race and sprint finish. It’s all there, in your face - including the sweat. And the remarkable texture and flow of Maisky’s shirt contributes to these very special 26 minutes. I’m still getting my breath back! One of the most riveting performance videos I’ve seen of classical - and chamber music coverage this good even tops watching orchestral playing! Good on you, Loft Music makers

ooooof that shift is so clean 13:30

¡Hermosa melodía, excelente presentación!. ¡¡¡Muchas gracias por compartirla!!!.

So beautiful it made me cry

-- Une merveille. --

Wonderful ...... Very gentle execution ...

Bonjour et merci pour votre vidéo.. Magnifique interprétation BRAVO Messieurs.. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Шедевр, вершина исполнительства! Брамс и Майский единое целое...

I do not understand why the camera focus on the faces. Are they playing with their mouth?

Magnificent execution.

Love this masculine version but as a cellist learning this sublime piece I want to watch Mischa’s magnificent technique, not his face!

Meraviglioso adoro Brahms e Mischia Maiski

MAGNIFIQUE !!!

bellissima musica mi piace molto Grazie.

AMAZING LEGATO!!!!! WOWWW

2:04 oh absolutely beautiful

Adorable interprétation !

Final part - especial magnificent! Especially themes after 22:25 - delightful! I love this sonata!

Marvellous!

This is a Brahms-Maisky-Galilov ensemble. Could anything be better?!

Wow - not easy the last Move. For both - Piano and Cello.

The cello has a very dark voice. At times it looks like a double bass. Is this a positive feature?

I LIKE

simply great...brahms would have liked it...

А пианист какой блестящий! Наслаждалась ансамблем в Allegro

does anyone by chance know what strings he is using in this video

Absolutely beautiful interpretation, but weird video angles😂 Autumn is the season for Brahms!!

Brilliant!

1:11 First time i hear a mistake by a professional player

Brahms or Debussy ?

Bauble Brahms

Very fine indeed; yet it somehow lacks the pathos, nuance, and synergy of the performance by Yo-Yo Ma and Emmanuel Ax.

You can't play a cello while eating Jell-O. **I SAID...**

kosovo je srbija

Super! And great pianist!

Beaucoup de poésie, de nuances, de romantisme. J Brahms à l'honneur... :) Merci.

깊고 품격있고 ...좋다 ~♡

I love this performance only for listening and not for watching. I closed my eyes and trip....
