    I have the sheet music in front of me. Here are some notes:
    Movement 1 is in C minor, common time, "allegro ma non tanto" (half note equals 84 beats per minute)
    Movement 2 is in C major, 3/8 time, "andante scherzoso quasi allegretto" (dotted quarter note note equals 56 beats per minute)
    Movement 3 is a minuet & trio:
    -The menuetto is in C minor, 3/4 time, "allegretto" (dotted half note equals 84 beats per minute)
    -The trio is Ab major, same time signature, same tempo
    -The menuetto is then played again
    Movement 4 is in C minor, allegro (half note equals 132 beats per minute)
    Third movement in detail:
    Menuetto 15:27-17:06
    15:27-15:35 A section
    15:35-15:43 Repeat A section
    15:44 16:24 B Section
    16:24-17:06 Repeat B section
    Trio 17:06-18:22
    17:06-17:28 C section
    17:28-17:50 Repeat C section
    17:50-18:22 D section
    Repeat menuetto 18:22-19:05
    18:22-18:29 A section
    18:29-19:05 B section

    This performance is notable because they give all parts equal recognition, instead of trying to make the first violin dominate the whole quartet

    The first movement you hear a few times and then it is never forgotten.When ever i come back to this it's amazing how every phrase seems to only be possible as it is.Isaac stern once said of Mendellsohn violin concerto that it ws perfect and every note followed the previous one and couldn't be any other than it is . I feel the same could be saif about this music .Must find the score

    Can't stand it when some say they're sick of Beethoven! There's always something new to discover from the great man - paticularly from such a committed performance as this! Many Thanks.

    • @LakhnBer
      @LakhnBer 7 років тому +7

      If you're sick of Beethoven, then you haven't been listening. But some of his works are broadcast so often that one stops really hearing them. (I live near Boston, so: Please, WCRB, don't play the warhorses more than once each every six months! Don't let great music to turn into wallpaper.)
      But I can't remember hearing this quartet any time recently, so it's a treat.

      i thought he was pretty lame at first but hearing his earlier stuff i think he's pretty good. His baroque elements in the second movement are pretty unique especially since it was made in the transitional period to the romantic era. So its good.

    Brilliant playing, with subtle nuances, fully dramatic range of dynamics.
    The recording is outstandingly good; and the filming sufficiently varied as to be neither too static nor too erratic. The visual spectacle enhances the drama of the music.

    • @pimogens222
      @pimogens222 3 роки тому

      I disagree about the filming. I prefer a fixed camera so I can see the interaction, that is where the drama is. Beethoven and four gifted musicians, should that not be enough; the camera (wo)man has no part in the show. Each time one player is focused the others are out of view. And displaying the sheet music (where the notes they are playing are hidden) is just dull.

    This performance is remarkable for the marvelous way all the four players are interacting. This quartet will easily become a show piece for the first violinist, which was clearly not the composer's intention. But there are so many ways to perform a musical masterpiece, and they may all be acceptable and enjoyable.
