Dvorak, the greatest piano quintet ever; Pressler, the greatest chamber pianist ever.
I have no words for that connection. Can't take my eyes off his hands, magical.
I totally agree (Susan not William) Marshall. This is musical heaven
My reply was to Simon Wong that I too think that M Pressler is the finest pianist ever!
He s the ultimate musician
I love how Pressler doesn’t play the notes - instead, it is a concept or color. These colors create his distinctive sound! Pressler understands the art of the half-pedal, and half-key that allows him to get the bell- like tones with gorgeous voicing, never banging and punching as do most. I’m reminded of the flourishes of sound, like gusts of wind as he plays the opening of the Mendelssohn Dm Piano Trio - The notes are NOT evident, although certainly not missing either. When you listen to this performance, note that you’re not aware of hearing.the vast majority of piano notes until a little sprig pops through to sparkle! This is his absolute genius!
Pressler is amazing, a true legend. On the other hand, I have a vinyl copy of Dvorak piano quintet with the Cleveland Quartet and Manny Ax on piano. In the recording Manny Ax plays with absolutely no color at all and the Cleveland quartet’s sound just blows him out of the water. It’s as if he just plays boring accompaniment.
so beautifully and eloquently described, indeed. a true genius and just turned 99 years old in December 2022,.
Pressler plays all notes! The ground is absolutely different: he just know and unterstand how to play Not on tastes, but directly on piano strings.
The art of half-pedal has so far slipped away from my thoughts about this music, but now when you mention it, I can perhaps understaning it. About the half-key I have more problems. Difficult problems.
???
As a mere 89 year old this ravishing performance brings me to tears of joy. It is so many years since I played viola in it with my daughter on contrabass. Such opportunities no longer arise. Menahem Pressler is matchless in chamber music. Musicians here are all so well matched in their intentions.
Sinceramente commosso vedere un novantenne suonare il pianoforte con quella luvidità e qualità di tocco!!! Esemplare esecuzione.
When one considers that Mr. Pressler died in May 2023 at the age of 99, this video is an important monument to his impressive skill and peerless musicality.
QUESTO video può figurare per la sua bellezza esecutiva come compianto per la scomparsa del maestro Pressler che ci ha lasciato a maggio senza riuscire a raggiungere per pochi mesi i 100 anni di età. Di lui ci restano le incisioni e, in particolare, le sue magnifiche esecuzioni con il TRIO BEAUX ARTS di gran parte del repertorio cameristico con pianoforte. Conserviamo di questo grande artista, costretto a fuggire dai nazisti dal suo paese natale, un ricordo perenne che arricchirà per sempre il nostro animo.
this performance is musical heaven
Pressler's technique was a vehicle for shaping his music. Bouncing wrists at 4:06 is just one example of how his technique followed the phrasing of the music. He made playing the piano seem so natural even at this recording of advanced age.
❤De la magie, sans âge, le temps s'arrête. Juste fermer les yeux et écouter
Absolutely sublime without words to express such a heavenly performance and that of Menahem Pressler--so amazing! This is divine. The ensemble is best described as PERFECT.
30:07 IV. Finale (Allegro)
Maestro Pressler es uno de los más enormes músicos de cámara del mundo, pero también es un enorme gran solista de orquesta y recitalista!!!, sus interpretaciones de Schubert , Beethoven y Debussy incomparables , gracias por darnos tanto siempre y por su sencillez
Le second mouvement est d'une grande beauté et interprété avec beaucoup d'émotion.
Welch ein überwältigend farbig-lebendiges Miteinander mit dem unglaublichen Menachem Pessler, wunderbar! Und der Cello
Klang,-einfach himmlisch...
Werde mir zum Vergleich nochmal das gleiche Quintett mit Janine Jansen und Lars Vogt anhören. Das habe ich auch in guter Erinnerung.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful and inspirational performance.
What absolute joy, pristine, brilliant, God -given heavenly conception & execution. Just found my jaw on the floor in the last ten minutes, it was that amazing!
Qué cuarteto de cuerdas tan maravilloso!!!!, 4 cuerdistas de locura!!!, y el Maestro Pressler es Dios al piano , qué carrera tan dulce y amable dedicada a la enseñanza, pero que portento de pianista , su madurez y sencillez al tocar, sin alardes , de un súper buen gusto !!!!
Gracias por este regalo de música
Vuelvo a ver y oir este video y vuelvo a disfrutar esta maravilla musical, adjetivo en todas sus acepciones posibles. Y qué honor para estos jóvenes músicos tocar al lado de este "procer" del piano que recientemente partió hacia otra dimensión
Wonderfully rendition, unbelievable Ensemble! BRAVO ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Qué maravilla!!! Todo: autor, obra, intérpretes. Mención especial para Pressler, obviamente. Pero el cuarteto de jóvenes está bien a la altura de este desafío
II. Dumka 11:20 Loving it !
Qué maravilloso es Menahem Pressler.
Dvorak autore di alcune Sinfonie notevoli, di due virtuosistici Concerti per violoncello e per pianoforte, di un'opera,Rusalka, che merita attenzione, ma è nella musica da camera che si è espresso al meglio. Questa la mia modesta opinione
Sin protagonismos ni músicos divos , verdadera música de cámara , GUAU!!!!!!, Gracias cuánto aprendí de todos ustedes 😀
Absolutely amazing nice, it's so nice listening to Dvorak in pure artistry :-)
Wonderful!
Most pianists playing this piece, especially Movement 2 "Dumka", seem to make one small mistake: they play their part too loudly. Pressler happens to achieve a crystalline, but ever present sound of his instrument that is inconspicuous, but cannot be overheard.
Maravilloso!!!!!!!!!!
RIP Maestro Pressler 🙏
This is beautiful! Thanks for sharing
What are those things coming out of my eyes and running down my cheeks?
You are alluding to the fact that music can change people, because it reaches the recesses of their hearts - wir begreifen, was uns ergreift (Emil Staiger).
@@ernsthaeublein2571 I like that reply Ernst; seemingly simple, yet so profound. Thank you for explaining to me. Good wishes to you.
