I cannot hear this Schubert masterpiece enough. I think I have died and gone to heaven whenever I hear it, in fact, I do hope that if there is such a thing as life after death, this music will be heard from time to time reminding me of the absolute beauty of music and life!
This is great music and a great performance. Bush and son-in-law, or Serkin and father-in-law, it doesn't matter how you look at it. This is music at its greatest level - we should be happy it was recorded
The lyrical thread that Adolf Busch spins has never been matched by any violinist playing Schubert. He is in communion with the intentions and the fragility of the creator of this eternal music.
Not underrated, just not as well known as it should. For those who know the canon of piano-violin repertoire, this is considered one of the greatest work ever.
I know all the Sonatas and Symphonies very few of the quartets ,the song cycles but have never heard this amazingly soulful duo before ...unforgettable . How did Schubert write so much ? I hope we have some letters from him !
Wonderful music and performance which I have heard many times, am glad you posted it. Must say, I think that the piano part of the whole opening section of just about 3 and a half minutes duration would sound fantastic on Marimba especially with the tremolos done with very soft mallets for sustained, smooth (legato) kind of sound.
...bellísimo tema!!!!....Schubert está imbuído de una sensibilidad única, que lo transcribe en cada nota...que para mí, lo hace uno de mis preferidos........
écouter aussi les autres interprétations de Serkin/Busch! C'est un vrai bonheur. ils trouvent toujours le bon tempo et ce qui capital a mon sens, ils se mettent au service de la musique... rien chez eux a une once d'orgueil... ce qui n'est pas le cas de tous les artistes...
C'est par ces interprètes habités et exemplaires que j'ai vraiment découvert la musique de chambre avec piano de Schubert- un trio en mi bémol électrisant. L'autre référence de l'époque était le trio en si bémol par Cortot/Thibault/Casals
I was looking to try to "isolate" the "theme" since many years . 0:05 . Actually , it's impossible . The combination of an aetheral melody and incredible harmonies makes it not to be found ; the only result : Franz touching the very core of pain and despair .
A superior evidence, something of which one has the metaphysical intuition, the absolute, transcendental certainty of its existence, without being able to fully grasp or demonstrate it: a soul.
schubert died at the age of 31. he is now in heaven with his vieannese collegues hyden, mozart, beethoven, brahms, bruckner, j.strauss, schönberg, alban berg, anton von webern. ps. bush and serkin studid and where activ in vienna
toute cette section en La bémol (thème et variations ) est basée sur le fameux lied de Schubert lui-même "Sei mir gegrüsst".Schubert s'est de même servi d'une de ses mélodies pour ses merveilleuses variations pour flûte et piano sur un thème de "Die schöne Müllerin"-on n'est jamais si bien servi que par soi-même!
Bush cannot cope with the performanc of Leonid Kogan -life in 1975.Rudolf Serkin on the piano remains one of the best and expressive for his role in this Schuberts Fantasy.The sound from 1931 has to be taken for granted.
He can and he does so well! With all due respect, it`s truly like comparing apples to oranges-really,what`s the need? Leonid Kogan has been my favorite violinist since childhood, hands down !! Having known his family personally and collected almost all of his phenomenal recordings, yet this is where one would have to differ in opinion with an aforementioned statement- Busch`s more lyrical, "singing" take on Schubert`s masterpiece to the ears of many is much more suiting to the essence of this music than Kogan`s more aggressive approach, that we both still admire and revere.
@@DavidWDNO Well said. Kogan is one of the most virtuoso violinists of all times - but Bush has a lyrical sound and by no means a lack of technique. They simply had a different ideal with their playing. Both are great - and the world would be less without having both of them.
The most exquisite performance ever!
Just one word for this magnificent piece,the perfection

Two great artists at their peak.

What a fantastic rendition of this marvelous work!
First hearing for me today - I LOVE it when I find a piece that scores (pun intended) with me - I'm in love again.
Fascinating! Thank you. Lovely performance.
the introduction is a complete dream , and drama .... I'm paralysed every time ... Busch and Serkin playing from some other world .....
Wunderschön, da geht einem das Herz auf!!!
What a great piece! Thanks for posting.
Perfection. Thank you.
A great performance!. Eric Shumsky
I say wow.Absolutely fantastic !
Beautiful interpretation!a cd that I've never been able to locate!!thank you so much!
one of his most underrated compositions.
and one of the most underrated performances

...das ist so tief und aufrichtig, was beide da vermitteln, großartig!
1931年の録音？信じられない｡二人の巨匠の素晴らしい演奏。夢の中を彷徨う様な気持ちです。

de mis preferidos........
Ich bin erschüttert von dieser Musik und von den beiden Künstlern. The rest should be silence
Quoique leur jous ne flattes pas, je sens une nostalgie superieuse.
彼らの演奏は我々に媚びる訳ではないのに、特別な親しみを感じる

0:05 Actually, I'm often feeling down, and this kind of beauty doesn't help at all ...........

Thank you . Great comment.
"Gross ist Jehovah der Herr" Schubert song
One reason that it's hard to isolate the theme is that there are several themes. Schubert created here an amazing piece that, is very theatrical.

I don't feel this as "theatrical" ..........
schubert died at the age of 31. he is now in heaven with his vieannese collegues hyden, mozart, beethoven, brahms, bruckner, j.strauss, schönberg, alban berg, anton von webern. ps. bush and serkin studid and where activ in vienna
And Gustav Mahler
of Course sorry
No problem , you're welcome .
I think Schonberg, Berg and Webern are in hell...because only the devil could like their so-called music.
@@alex9920ro I can understand your idea .
But listen to their early works , and then further ....
You will see , they composed like Mozart .....
Фига себе раритет... 100% играют гениально
Minute 9:00 Mozart sonata?
You mean one of his sonatas for violin & piano or piano alone? I hear quite a bit of Beethoven influencing this, as well.
The first movement of Mozart's famous A major piano sonata.
... E poi anche il tema del suo lied Sei mir gegrusst
toute cette section en La bémol (thème et variations ) est basée sur le fameux lied de Schubert lui-même "Sei mir gegrüsst".Schubert s'est de même servi d'une de ses mélodies pour ses merveilleuses variations pour flûte et piano sur un thème de "Die schöne Müllerin"-on n'est jamais si bien servi que par soi-même!

Busch was Peter Serkin's grandfather.
Thanks so much for that information!
@@danielscheinhaus5210 Yes, Rudolf Serkin (papa Serkin) married Adolf Bush daughter - and Peter is their son. Great traditions lives on.
