Thank you so much for watching! ❤
Love Maisky-- he did great work on the Bach cello suites
Of course it’s Jansen. I expect none less of her
I don't find it on Spotify 🥲
Shazam. Another useless app that pretends to have the answer to any music...
Dude why did you put Argerich and Langlang in the tags? I didn't see them in the video...
You can really tell Shostakovich was going through a lot lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣👌
He wrote this for the things he saw in WW2 so he did see quite a bit
He wrote this as a suicide note/last attempt of protest because he fully believed he was going to be offed by the KGB. So yes, a lot
he was literally about to kill himself. wrote it in 3 days
Putting aside the amount of energy in the first violin, can we all take a moment to appreciate the cellist's look? Left to right, we have the outfits of: drama student, prom dress, the guy who takes dress rehearsal more seriously than the rest of the orchestra, and then the 20th century cello sage
The first violin is janine jansen btw
@kaiki r r these are all amazing soloists but the performance is sloppy lmao
His name is Misha Maisky
@@EntelSidious_gamzeylmz I thought I was the only one who thought so too. It’s like you can hear all their egos clashing
@@EntelSidious_gamzeylmz I mean it fit🤷🏾♂️
the fact that this is written in quarter notes, the tempo mark must be “jesus take the wheel”
if you pause at 0:02 you can see it says semibreve equals 120, so yeah...
Technically 480 BPM, shosty pioneered speedcord fr
Shostakovich was pretty fond of these manic tempo (quasi) perpetuum mobiles, where many composers would do the more practical option of a shorter base value and a slower tempo. My guess is that he knew that musicians subconsciously play longer values 'harder' even when the tempo and dynamic markings are otherwise mutandis mutatis. You can find another (less extreme) example in the 3rd movement of the 8th Symphony.
I wonder if because shostakovich wrote his scores by hand it was easier to write everything as crotchets (quarter notes) that quavers (8th notes) or otherwise. Just a theory. I believe he wrote this piece in a very short space of time, like under a week, so perhaps that had something to do with it.

You can tell how aggressively Jansen is playing it because she lost some bow hairs by the end
Janine always plays with that energy lol
I just overread the „bow“ and still totally believed it 😂
Before the concert she has a bow. After the concert she has just a stick.
actually not, bow hair can also brake whie playing legato or not tooo aggresive, still her energy is unmatched
She always loses a few.
Whenever someone says “Classical music is boring” next time, I’ll show them this
wont change their opinion. trust me
better to show them something with a more followable but passionate melody maybe
@@erictsenmusic yeah, someone might think this is not very musical at first
@@erictsenmusic true, they probably won’t. But worth a try
I'm not in the loop with the subgenres since 20+ years but sounds like the thrash metal and the likes i used to listen to when i was an angry kid.
To the people who say this sound "sloppy" or unhinged... yeah... that's kind of the exact way to play this piece. I think the slightly unhinged aspect elevates it. :)
This interpretation has a lot of raw emotions but it does not justify the clear sloppiness in some sections
They don't have to justify anything :) You have no context, and more pressingly, they did not do this for you
@@jkid1134 what I meant by "justify" is that those sloppy sections weren't intended to be there to "elevate it" they messed up a bit and it affects cohesion in my opinion.
Obvious example, the early entrance at the beginning is not a decision justified by artistic expression
@@Samuel-kc1pg Rats, how dare your criticism be sound! This to me looked relatively unpracticed, and I meant originally that there's some degree of justification in preparation limits of any kind, but sure, not that kind of justification. I too am a big believer in intentionality and purpose in art, so I get what you mean. I think the measured response is that this performance has both flaws and virtues, even objectively, and even if there is some kind of synergy between them.
Exactly!
my aggression says i might have a therapist problem
My problem therapist says I might have an aggression.....
My says agresses therapist might have a problem I
Aggression says a therapist might problem I have
i LOVE this version it's so unhinged lol. i wish the full performance existed somewhere
There is a full version of this piece with Janine. The other parts are played by different musicians though
I think we all do.
there is no better cellist alive that plays Shostakovich better than Maisky. Period.
Johaness imo
colon and semicolon
Rostropovich anyone ??
If he prepares as in his early days ...than maybe yes
@@rayanyessin277 keyword: alive
Since I saw a blurred Maisky in the thumbnail, I knew that the piece would be Shostakovich's String quartet 8. I have seen this video many times and I'm still amazed at how they interpreted this piece with so much emotion and chaos!
this piece makes me visualize a group of students assigned to work together on a project but they all procrastinated and are trying to finish it in time for the deadline and it’s absolute mayhem
I mean... He did write it in three days
that's beautiful
As a person who has been playing quartet 1st violin, let's say that I did feel a lot better after playing that XD
Aaaaaabsolutely. All the anger goes away. (Cello here)
Same Here...😂🎉
This is the best interprtation I've ever heard of this quartet. That subtle dynamic change at 1:09 gave me chills.
I know that the first violinist and the cellist are world class soloists.
+1
I feel sorry for you then
@@AndreyRubtsovRU What don't you like about this ?
@@nicolasmercure7553 honestly it doesn't sound as demonic as it could. I think it would be better if it were Russian men playing instead of these flimsy women
I love this String Quartet by Shostakovitch. So full of emotions
I still don't know why he wrote crotchets on the page when they sound like semiquavers.... it just made page turns more difficult!!
@@liamnevilleviolist1809 maybe because if it was semiquavers, the feeling of the beat would be completly different. Being crochet at this speed it feels like a head going (no,no,no,no) or a person running... O don't know really. But your question made me think and that's my take on it. Composers think usually on everything that will make musical sense for the piece.
@@liamnevilleviolist1809 i mean, didn't he write the quartet in three days? correct me if i'm wrong, i'm not a musician
@@snoop9064 Yes. And he reused a lot of material, much more than he usually did. The quartet is partly a collage. And a good collage.
@@snoop9064 You're not a musician yet you know/think he wrote it in three days?
I mean, you might be onto something. He may have written it this way and then *IF* he had time (which he didn't) he could've gone on to re-do the score.
It is still strange to me that extremely fast notes are written as crotchets.
I'm not just a performer, but also a teacher, analyst, researcher, publishing assistant, arranger, recording artist, sound engineer.
So I do think that when I bring up a point about "Shosta's crotchets" ... it doesn't just come from nowhere.....
You know a piece is iconic when you can recognize it just by watching the bow strokes without sound
Can we appreciate shostakovich giving the viola an actual decent part
pretty accurate rendition of how it feels to be alive these days....
For a moment I imagined this piece as played by a metal band with distorted guitars and bass, like some Scandinavian symphonic metal guys with long hair headbanging on every barline.
ua-cam.com/video/x8NJGezMicI/v-deo.html
There's a metal version on guitar out there if you search 🙂
Here you go. It's the same movement: ua-cam.com/video/x8NJGezMicI/v-deo.html
This piece belongs in tech-death. It is a tragedy that no tech-death band has covered this piece yet.
Do you know apocalyptica ? You should hear it
1:00 that headbanging...
This is definitely my favorite recording of this piece, I wish the full performance was released
Che the Internationaal Kamermuziek Festival Utrecht.
That’s something my neighbor would say when I play too much Beethoven
i think my neighbor and yours could be soulmates
the type of emotion my teacher expects me to have when i practice
this shows how classical musicians really are: feral.
This IS one of the most, if not the most ICONIC performance of this string quartet!!!!! anything with Jansen and Maisky is gold!!!
It's just Mischa Maisky being Mischa Maisky 😆
I loved that I found this by searching "that one string quartet piece that is crazy fast"
Shostakovich: hands-down, one of the greatest composers of his Age: of any Age. Thank you again, Mother Russia.
To think that I see the first violinist on a regular basis because she teaches in my school… she’s so damn charismatic and such a wonderful musician
This is my favorite composition by Harry Potter /j
aggression problem
Close to "PSYCHO" movie background...
1:20
That was the smoothest page turn in the history of page turns
Well done Misha!!
1:18 *
Used the force
This is why this is my favourite Shostakovich piece
This man gets hate for his style of music. When keep in mind he isn't like 'most people.' He is different and that is exactly the point. What you hear is exactly what he wants you to hear. His music isn't bad, it's just different.
The man was living in an oppressive regime that made his life hell. His music was his rebellion, his escape. That's why there is so much dissonance, so much angst, so much hurt in his music.
Music should evoke emotion and no-one does that better than Shostakovich
Why is Shostakovich's music hated tho
@@yashbspianoandcompositions1042 I don't think it is.
I had the chance to play this quartet with some friends in my conservatory (I'm from France), and it is as exciting to play than to listen to, even if it is soooo difficult 😂 Chostakovitch is a mad genius haha
I sense despair rather than aggression.
My therapist: have u tried listening to classical music to help with your aggression?
The classical music I listen to:
What a panic attack sounds like:
coming back when I need a good laugh again because the descent into madness as the piece progresses and with it the growing need for a hairbrush and jaw relaxers is hilarious
Don't worry, this dimension in which old Sylvester Stallone is a cellist doesn't exist and he can't hurt you
Ahh so soothing, great to relax the children 👍
When I first heard this work I was shocked by the beauty, fury and tragedy of the music, particularly the 1st and 2nd movements.
After listening to this for a couple of hours I'm afraid that the therapist would also start having aggression problems...
it must be refreshing to play that
I’m proud of myself for watching this performance long before seeing this on your channel 😄
same haha
same!
When the truck stop bean burrito kicks in and the last sign said "Next rest stop 20 miles"
I'll tell my grand childs it is normal to headbang to classical music
Ah yes, the voices in my head, I forgot where I put them
I love this piece and the raw energy is exactly what's needed! I think spot on
The energy of the cellist in 0:59
this is so wild and insanely beautiful. i've got goosebumps!
Gotta love Janine, she is always so expressive while she's playing
It’s nice to watch this piece with that level of frenetic energy. I find it really elevates the communication of Shostakovich’s frustration and desperation.
Love...so cathartic...feel ready for some calm now.
Stallone is so versatile 😌
Sylvester Stallone really be doing all the side quests huh
When the song hits hard; so you study it with your whole soul, give every note an emotion, make the piece reshape your mind and make the piece a "piece" of your life.
fantastic interpretation by those 4
well done!👏👏👏👏👏👏
String Quartet has that metal vibe to it, its a beautiful piece to hear and its hilarious to watch, Shostakóvich was the real metal head of the classical music lol one of my favs for sure
Love. THIS.
Absolutely mesmerising performance of a great work!!
People losing their shit at their instrument immediately makes me wanna learn it lmao
This woulld have me throwin up the horns in the audience
One day I'll buy a violin just to make my neighbours mad😂
mischa maisky is a fucking cello icon
Amazing piece
gotta lov this
Man I love this piece
this is amazing!!
this is an awesome rendition
Peaceful and deligthed Quartet!!! Some calm winter evening and a cup of tea!!!
I love this piece
I was hoping for this after seeing the title. Nice!
Now i know how Silvester Stalone Looks like in 50 years when he plays the Violin😂
We all have something in common
I love that quartet so much
Not agression ... despair
Literally my favourite version, wish I could find the whole thing online
Love this movement, and this is an excellent performance. Gave me goosebumps! I didn't recognize Janine Jansen on first violin until I read the caption - she is electric. It's true, playing this is a great way to get some aggression out lol (speaking from experience)
When Death Metal bands turn their distortion pedals off.
AWESOME ! MY HEROES ! THANK U ! ❤
I love this piece so much
omg that piece... O.o ❤❤❤
truly the piece of all time
"Classical music is boring", they say
best version Ive heard so far
WOW! I'm definitely going to look into Shostakovich's 8th quartet! Some days, I just feel like that music sounds! 😁
Great big energy vibe
wonderful
Well I think that's one of the best renditions of that sections I've ever seen. I want to watch the whole thing.
One of my favorite songs
So much for getting to sleep now. I'm stoked!
I’d pay to watch that one violinist give someone a haircut.
incredible performance!
Excelente!
Perfect to listen before going to sleep after a hard day of work
the song when the fires of industry felled the trees of orthanc.
Dude anytime Jenson is involved its going to be nuts! Lol
Shes awesome though! I love the energy she put in to everything she plays!
Oh I played this in February! Such a cool peace
