This beautiful, heart wrenching composition by the great Austrian violinist/composer, Fritz Kreisler, very much encapsulate the ‘roller coaster’ mood, spirit, hopes and aspirations of Kreisler when he returned to a war - torn Vienna, seeing his belovedh city , in utter ruins, as a result of WW2 , fantasying the return of the music, dancing, romance, gaiety and beauty associated with the city he once knew.Truly a masterpiece amongst his many brilliant and sensitive Viennese compositions.
The violin is closest to the human voice with the ability to evoke the greatest emotions and feelings from the listener. Fritz Kriesler is one of a handful composer able to exploit its potential. The fact that he himself is an accomplished violinist, makes his many brilliant viennese compositions all the more remarkable and very listenable.Having read the story/history behind this composition: Viennesse Rhapsodic Fantasietta , I literally cried, when listening to it, for the first time, performed by the maestro himself in a digital remake of an early 1950s vinyl LP recording of his violin masterpieces.
Is it closer to the human voice than the tuba tho??
This woman is awesome no matter what she plays! 😅🙃
Wunderfull beautiful!!! and masterly played!!!!!
Man this piece is truly one of the best duets I have ever heard, but does anyone else think the ending is just a garish stain upon what is otherwise one of the most powerful, delicate, and intentional pieces I've ever heard? I have never heard such a stark and unfitting change in a piece before.
Wha?
@@user-lc4ex6tl4v I mean the very end of the piece kinda ruins the rest of it right? No shade on the violinist she's awesome and just playing what he wrote but Kreisler was smoking something when he wrote that ending for sure.
That could have only been written by a Viennese who was taking a nostalgic look back at a forgotten Vienna, a Vienna he used to know that was immersed in happy conversation, Viennese coffee, music, and musical friends, all mixed with a few tears of sadness and love. The lost Vienna of Gemütlichkeit. Thank you, Tessa.
Beautiful music & very nice playing from 2:26!!
Qué bella obra!!!
I dunno, man, usually you'd call for Vengerov for a piece like this, but it's hard to imagine even him bettering this performance
A real treat! Played by both of you with sentimentality (but not too much) and nonchalant brilliance (abundant). Is this piece actually composed by Kreisler or based on Kreisler's style? Somehow, I've never encountered it before.
Donald Payne it was one of Kreisler’s later works but it was written by him
Alguém sabe onde consigo a partitura em PDF dessa música?
Lovely playing of this absolute Viennese schmalz! is the pianist Israeli?
Fritz Kreisler is Vienna's soundtrack.
Could be the next Mrs Roberts
Up with the Lark
