Bella esecuzione ! Il primo violino è straordinario! Nessuno nella storia del violino ha avuto questa cavata , emissione del suono! Commosso..... e quanta femminilità!!!!
I'm 78 now, listened to and played a lot of classical music among which by Schubert, as I was saying at 78 I'd never heard this adagio. I stumbled on it becuase of some viewer of the movie on the Wannsee Conference in which it played a part
Schubert's passionate and beautiful string quintet led by the beautiful and passionate Yoko Henkel, what more could you want. All of the ensemble are top class and look as if they are enjoying the occasion.
so emotional - I can scarely breathe and thinking of my late brother-in-law, Guido Ajmone-Marson, who died in 2014. This is his memory, so much worshipped.
Played this when I was on a student week-end break and loved it (we did the Mendelssohn Octet too!). My teacher said she'd never heard the slow movement played that slowly and kept waiting for it to come adrift, but it worked, as did this brilliant performance.
What else can you say. You feel the big Boom of Creation and the Whole Vibrations of the Universea that tear your heart apart. Makes it one whole Soul with the Creator sitting on Thy Mighty knees (If one is allowed to say so)...
I completely understand Stravinsky whom I absolutely respect and love. This piece is a prayer to Dionysos, the god of tragedy and clensing. This prayer relieses the soul of aĺl the sins. Accompanied with a glass of wine, will be my last wish before I die in peace!....
Le jeune coeur qui m'avait enaeigné de 78 ou 81 and n'est plus. Avant de nous quitter' il solfiait comme un un des chefs d'orcheatre qui avait composé la pièce. Il comprenait et pouvait expliquer chacun des mouvements. A mon humble avis, c'est pas du Romantisme. Qui pourrait brosser' nous éclairer svp?
Es la cumbre de la música de cámara y, para muchos, la cumbre de la música occidental. La muerte estaba muy cercana cuando Schubert escribió el quinteto y é lo sabía. Eso explica su estro patético y dramático.
