In my opinion---all Mozart's mature quartets are the most beautiful quartets ever composed...and the daring slow opening of this quartet is looking 100 years forward...great performance, playing fast with energy and without much vibrato.
I was learning this with my friends in music college for the last two months and that was the best time I ever had studying here. We didn't know each other before but communication between us while playing made us think that we were besties even before we were born. Completely different feelings than sitting in orchestra or playing solo
Magnificent. I first heard this quartet in college. The musician in residence at my dormitory played a record of it and I heard the beginning of the piece. Arnold Schoenberg maybe. No. The piece revealed itself to be Mozart. Astonishing.
Classical music has only gotten more famous? Before the 1900's, you pretty had to be rich to enjoy it. Also the truth is, like 80% has no reason to like western European music at all.
I disagree with you. Most people - who are people - enjoy music like this. All “serious” music has always been confined to the few. Mozart churned out lots of “rubbish” for entertainment’s sake. All composers did (and do). He also produced remarkable work like this - work that challenges and rewards the listener who knows how to hear.
My teacher assigned us quarters and I came to listen to ours. At first, I didn't like the idea of this piece. Mozart isn't my absolute favorite compared to other composers and neither is C Major. BUT when I listened to the minor opening I was immediately on board with it! Your quartet did absolutely beautifully!
Il finale del secondo tempo presenta un’intensità Unica!!! Il violoncello termina “ricordando” il terzo tema che caratterizza il pezzo…..: ASSOLUTAMENTE GENIALE, PERCHÉ INASPETTATO!…. Un’emozione suprema!…
The recorded sound is beautifully warm, the playing is exquisite and pristine, and the music is thoroughly divine. Thx for the upload, will check into this quartet further! Liked & subscribed. 🙂
Thank you, Gewandhaus Quartet for the great pleasure of listening to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: String Quartet.The setting, interpretation are divine. Was totally captivated. Sharing.
No better quartet for the six Mozart string quartets dedicated to Haydn. I own the CD set of the Gewandhaus playing these most glorious of Mozart's string quartets. Thank you for posting, DW.
@@prager5046 Yes. I've listened to many string quartets playing the Mozart quartets dedicated to Haydn. I also like the Amadeus string quartet performances.
Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieses teilweise dissonanten doch perfekt komponierten Streichquartetts in verschiedenen Tempi mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen vierer genialen Streicher. Der zweite Satz klingt echt schön und auch medlodisch. Wundervoll vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
As someone who tends to prefer baroque or romatic to music of this time and, frankly, think of Mozart as an annoying show-off who often lacks emotional depth, I feel I need to give him another chance, maybe? This quartet is beautiful.
Together with the music, you should also post a visual with the musical score! So that people may read the music at the same time as they listen! Just like another music channel does, but I can't remember its name.....
THE OPENING INTRODCTION TO THIS PIECE HAS NEVER PLEASED ME IN ANY REGARD I AM ACCUSTOMED TO DISSONANCE, BUT THIS WRITING IS NOT SUCCESSFUL. AFTER SO MANY YEARS, IT STILL HAS NOT GROWN ON ME. THE PASSING OF TIME REVEALS ALL, AND IT STILL IS FAR FROM ME.
L'enfant blanc de 37 ans quand même, il a jamais rien payé de sa vie, il en est à parler d'argent de poche avec son prof et il fait chier l'avancement de la recherche.
