I'm seeing a lot about this piece recently on UA-cam and other platforms. It must be it's time to shine so to speak. It's pretty gorgeous really. And voted by many as the most representative piece by Brahms.
This is such a fun piece to play. I played first violin in a sextet with some friends from school, and it came together so well. Kudos to the uploader for the score it is very helpful!
Performed this piece recently (2nd viola). It was amazing, exactly what I love and expect out of a chamber piece. Just wish 2nd viola had a little more to do in some spots :)
3:12 in German musical nomenclature this motif spells a-g-a-h-e. This is a reference to Agathe von Siebold. In 1858 Brahms was invited to Göttingen by Julius Otto Grimm and he met Agathe, whom he quickly developed an intimate relationship with. When Clara Schumann noticed this when she was visiting Göttingen she immediately left without farewell. This devastated Brahms [sic], who broke off the engagement and his promise of marrying Agathe.
Wunderschöne und gut phrasierte Interpretation dieses spätromantischen und perfekt komponierten Sextetts in verschiedenen Tempi mit seidigen Tönen beider Violinen, milden Tönen beider Bratschen und tiefen Tönen beider Violoncelli. Der dritte Satz klingt besonders schön und echt bezaubernd. Im Kontrast klingt der letzte Satz echt lebhaft und auch dynamisch. Die intime und perfekt entsprechende Miteinanderwirkung zwischen den sechs Virtuosen ist wahrhaft ergreifend. Wunderbar und atemberaubend zugleich!
32:12-33:08 is some of the most beautiful music I’ve ever heard, the way the tension is built up and then released in this magnificent passage evokes so much emotion from the listener, what a wonderful genius masterpiece this is
Please stop already. Debussy never reached Brahms' level of mastering musical forms. Debussy had a very original and influential melodic and harmonic language but was nowhere near the composer Brahms ended up being. Does he have any better entertainment music than the Hungarian Dances? Nope. Does he have a symphony? No. A piano or violin concerto? No. Brahms wrote 4 symphonies, 3 excellent piano sonatas, 4 concertos and a ton of structurally over-arching sonata-based chamber music. Debussy tended to write works consisting of separate tunes and thematic development and larger forms were not exactly his strength. Brahms was on a similar level of originality of harmony and melody while being a master at taking a wee bit of thematic material to make a large scale work from, which Debussy wasn't nearly as good at.
When getting to know classical music, in my experience, anyway, it sometimes takes time to become familiar with a piece. But after you do--and it might take a few listenings or more--you might find that you love a given piece more than you could have imagined. Give the last movement of this quartet a few listenings if you can. While doing chores or washing dishes, whatever, just so that you can get to know it as comfortably as possible. I really love this last movement, so much that I've yet to really get to know the rest of the quartet. Anyway, wishing you more joy in music.
Wow. I’d not heard this before. That opening was so lovely and unexpected.
very famous chamber piece
@@isha9300 lol no need to be sassy
@@cadd9572 i wasn't ? it's an actual famously played chamber piece

the final resolution of the poco adagio against that cello pedal point has to be one of the most satisfying moments in all of music

Great upload, great music
Very beautiful, well-crafted, and like very often, the musical piece outlasted the relationship. Thanks for sharing.

That opening is gorgeous...almost a look forward to Debussy.
Debussy? I mean it’s a slightly unusual opening but I don’t hear Debussy at all

Первая часть, в особенности начало звучит таинственно,завораживающие. Звуки скрипки и виолончели уносят тебя в параллельную реальност,вселённую.
Great to re-hear this Masterpiece......Spellbinding!
Outstanding music
The most beautiful thing I've ever played as for now (1st viola)
music appreciation, Michigan!
Great performance.
What an unusual piece
LOL I was just getting really into this piece the other week. Read my mine with this upload xD
Great recording, thanks for posting! Is it available on CD/download anywhere?
Brahms
Boring.
I feel sorry for you
poor boy

How could you think the scherzo is boring?
