Мне посчастливелось слушать этот великий квартет на концертах в Москве и Нижнем Новгороде. Лучший квартет СССР. ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНОЕ ИСПОЛНЕНИЕ ЧАЙКОВСКОГО. БРАВО!!! Сумашедшие политики запада запретившие русскую музыку на западе лишили свои народы прекраснейшей музыки когда-либо написанной человечеством.
Music to die for, to die with, to love with and fight for. And when you see them, in all humility and devotion at work, these masters of their profession-in its breadth and depth of meaning- dressed up to perform, willingly, playing with such beauty, calm, vibrancy and harmony of expression, within the dreadful constriction and persecution of their time, we witness not just a paradox but a miracle of survival- so deep a humanity, encapsulated, embraced in the genius and power of such glorious music.
Disse Tchaikovsky: "Em toda a minha vida de músico creio que nunca me senti tão lisonjeado e comovido quando Leon Tolstoi, sentado ao meu lado ouvindo o Andante, começou a chorar."⁶
Lev Tolstoy was in the audience at the first presentation of this quartet. It is told that when the 2nd movement was played, he was so enthralled that he began to weep hard, racking sobs.
Small artists show us what they can do - the BIG artists show us what they are. These four men were the music they were playing. I reckon this String QuartetNo 1 is the closest thing humans have ever come to whale song! Surprising after 6 years only 880 likes.
For 10 consecutive years have I been listening to this and other pieces such as Quartet Number 2 in D by Borodin(3rd movement!) , and yet every time I listen to these masterpieces that are about to vanish in today's society I feel insignificantly small and feeble compared to these honorable composers. 15:31 Just made me feel helpless and vague on my future roads of life. I really don't know how my future is going to be. Its funny how sometimes instruments made up of plain ol' wood and some string can give people goosebumps and memories of the past when they first listen to this. Yet this is why I think Classical music "rock" more than rock or Justin Bieber Songs, these instruments express words where you have to understand only with your heart. Sadly in today's world no more of these legendary songs are written, or will be wirtten.
+Daniel Lu - TOO MANY DISTRACTIONS IN THIS MODERN LIFE FOR SUCH POWERFUL MUSIC TO BE WRITTEN TODAY, BUT WITH PEOPLE WITH THE DEPTHS OF ONE SUCH AS YOURSELF, THIS MUSIC WILL NEVER COMPLETELY DISAPPEAR !!!
Watch how the first and second violins match their vibrato absolutely perfectly in the second movement theme, around 15:00 such amazing attention to detail combined with heavenly musicality and understanding of the style.
Where and when, we want and need to know, not to begin but complete our search to grasp the depths of this sublime performance, devastating in passion and expertise: discipline with liberty, creative as controlled, founded on faith in the music, which rises on their swaying plane of fusion, a tension with pathos and catharsis entwined, through such taught, exquisite expression of tremulous melody, shown boldly in their composure, posture, natural gesture barely constrained. And then, the way they stand, so upright, hasten far back to bow, march, hurry away.
What gorgeous quartets these are and this the first of them I enjoy most. The Borodins excel here. The ensemble is perfection, they sway together, almost breathe together, super video, thanks UA-cam.
Almost too much to bear: like a fiddler on the street, at most a meagre travelling band, he shows all the ingenuity, the lyrical wonder and daring of his wears. And the Borodin Quartet are those bearers par excellence, defiant of dire and troubled times.
For me the most beautiful and joyful pieces are the first one, the third one and especially the fourth one which is absolutely superb! 💘 💘 💘 Of course the second movement is infinitely beautiful too but the fourth is the best!!! 💘 💘 💘💜💛💚🧡
I'm just sitting here, panting and groaning involuntarily at a video taken decades ago of three old Soviet men playing away with those grand fine fiddles of theirs. I feel incapable of dealing with how perfectly they play.
11:39 has a story behind it with me! This piece was played on the Stryker inTouch bed. OK. So in the event, you, or your loved one were admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, and your hospital bed happened to be a Stryker inTouch bed, If the Staff at the hospital had your bed set to the sound therapy option in the I-Bed Menu, If the classical music playlist was what you heard during your stay, You would hear this movement of his String Quartet No 1! You'd hear this slow and extremely beautiful movement! And if you were on a ventilator like I was, You'd be comforted by soothing music like this! The Stryker inTouch bed is a critical care bed by the company Stryker. The bed can rotate bed bound and intubated patients automatically, to prevent bed soars. This bed can pound on the patient's back to loosen up secretions the patient is unable to cough up on their own. The bed has a scale that can weigh the patient. This bed has the ability to translate spoken phrases into other languaged. The bed has medical calculators! And finally, this bed has the option of playing classical music, My favorite, Jazz Music, or Sounds of nature, such as a Waterfall, or Bottle Nose Dolphins!
they make it look so EASY. it seems like very few professional violinists (and cellists and violists) reach this level... the level of completely MASTERY of their instrument. it just looks so natural and perfect.
Truly sublime ! I was fortunate enough to hear them in this very same hall during my student years but only now realize just how good they were ....and the music !
This is almost unspeakably beautiful and sublime. No other group can match their beautiful tone and feeling . Where and when was this recorded? Thank you.
Valentin Berlinsky was the legendary cellist of the quartet which started in student years of Tchaikovsky conservatory, supposedly Rostropovich was the cellist in the beginning, and Berlinsky came instead of him. He was the only original member to play in the quartet almost until his death, so for 62 years!! Since 1945. until 2007. Check out the video of Mendelssohn quartet in my channel if you want! Thanks.
lovely although solos could be a bit louder . not the best Borodin ever. Either sound engineer needs sacked or 1st violin needs to lean on his bow a little bit
BORODIN QUARTET ALWAYS HAVE BEEN THE BEST!!!
Especially when it comes to Russian composers, I don't even bother to listen to other interpretations. It's not even close!
Tschaikowsky Sq from early 20th century is the one to beat
Sommet du génie Russe, du compositeur aux interprètes unis en une seule voix : l'âme d'un peuple.
beautiful. Tchaikovsky wrote the most romantic melodies.
00:45 - I. Modereto e simplice.
11:35 - II. Andante cantabille.
19:12 - III. Scherzo - Allegro non tanto.
23:08 - IV. Finale - Allegro giusto.
IV. Finale - Allegro giusto
thanks a lot!!!!

I fear to write a thing, other than to say: I categorically concur.
Bless, I absolutely agree!
Danke Ihnen für Ihren tiefgreifenden Kommentar. Die Menschheit braucht Menschen wie Sie.
The best performance of this piece, I listened to this countlessly.
Disse Tchaikovsky: "Em toda a minha vida de músico creio que nunca me senti tão lisonjeado e comovido quando Leon Tolstoi, sentado ao meu lado ouvindo o Andante, começou a chorar."⁶
2nd movement the most beautiful movement of any quartet i've ever heard. Absolutely moving.
Lev Tolstoy was in the audience at the first presentation of this quartet. It is told that when the 2nd movement was played, he was so enthralled that he
began to weep hard, racking sobs.
I was at the Opera house in Sydney when I first heard it. Mum worked downstairs and I rushed down to her at the end and sobbed. Remarkable music.
yes!!! Just found it and i am crying for 30 minutes already
Agreed. Sublime.

I disagree that they aren’t written or will be written that’s definitely not true I’m afraid.
Music starts at 0:45. Up until then is their entrance and applause.
Сейчас так уже не играют. Да... Были времена.
I'm... I... I'm just overwhelmed.
綺麗な、、、切れるところの息がぴったりと合ってますね…
Изумительное исполнение! Какое счастье, что остались записи этого великолепного квартета! Лучшего исполнения я пока не слышала! Брависсимо!!!
Borodin /best quartet of all times!
This is the best interpretation I've ever heard. I feel I'm melting when they are playing the second movement. So beautiful, so pure.
Watch how the first and second violins match their vibrato absolutely perfectly in the second movement theme, around 15:00 such amazing attention to detail combined with heavenly musicality and understanding of the style.
....you try to hard to impress
The first time I heard this performed live, I almost broke into tears!
17:00 мое самое любимое место.. Чувствую полную гармонию..
That senza vibrato 15:25 is one of the most beautiful things I've ever listen
Where and when, we want and need to know, not to begin but complete our search to grasp the depths of this sublime performance, devastating in passion and expertise: discipline with liberty, creative as controlled, founded on faith in the music, which rises on their swaying plane of fusion, a tension with pathos and catharsis entwined, through such taught, exquisite expression of tremulous melody, shown boldly in their composure, posture, natural gesture barely constrained.

Legendary performance!
1:46〜2:42までの流れが好きです。
本当に綺麗…
Спасибо!

Music at the utmost!
The movement ends and everybody starts coughing up a lung, geez! Love that beautiful 2nd movement!
For me the most beautiful and joyful pieces are the first one, the third one and especially the fourth one which is absolutely superb! 💘 💘 💘 Of course the second movement is infinitely beautiful too but the fourth is the best!!! 💘 💘 💘💜💛💚🧡

There is so much beauty and harmony in each of Tchaikovsky pieces and each one of his works is superb! 💘 🌼🌸🌸✨💖💕♥ ❤💙💜💖💗💘

I played it 2 years ago, same emotion, same feeling :)
btw I used to play the viola
I got chills right from the start. Amazing.
they make it look so EASY. it seems like very few professional violinists (and cellists and violists) reach this level... the level of completely MASTERY of their instrument. it just looks so natural and perfect.
Maravilloso. La obra y estos intérpretes.
Truly sublime ! I was fortunate enough to hear them in this very same hall during my student years but only now realize just how good they were ....and the music !
You are a lucky man!!!
sometimes you look back and you recognize you couldn’t even understand how great it really was
love it more than other versions heard, great guys great performance
0:47 - первая часть
11:38 - вторая часть
19:14 - третья часть
23:09 четвёртая часть
Great that we have this video recording of the legendary Quartet! Thanks!
Como si fuera poca la genialidad fecunda de Tchaikovsky, agregando este Cuarteto # 1 Op. 11, a su producción grandiosa, una obra artística monumental
BRAVISSIMOS !
くれゆくそらまどをとじぬ、鐘の音はるかきこゆーーー、いい曲ですね！
Many thanks for uploading this marvellous performance.
My all time favorite string quartet piece! It has depth built into it so that it sounds like a full symphony. But it’s just four instruments.
it is what artists should - when you really do an art work - do it perfect
Prachtige opname !
Класс!
They are so technically accomplished one is able completely to relax for not a note is out of place.
masterpiece, repeat.
Браво!👏👏👏
Superb!
Fantastic!
Para compor o segundo movimento (Andante Cantabile), Tchaikovsky se inspirou na música que ouviu de um pintor de paredes quando visitava a irmã.
perfect! thanks for sharing
What a performance of this gem.
It's a pity tchaikovsky composed so few string quartets.
We're lucky that he did!! Wasn't his favorite formation, he liked to write for symphonic orchestra much more.
This is almost unspeakably beautiful and sublime. No other group can match their beautiful tone and feeling . Where and when was this recorded? Thank you.
14:00 ❤️
The cellist's final D is perfectly in tune.
Bravo. When and where did this performance take place, I wonder.....
In Big Hall of Moscow conservatory
Great hall of Moscow Conservatory. I think mid 1980th
The first violon looks like Maxim Vengerov don't you think so? haha What are their name again?
Valentin Berlinsky was the legendary cellist of the quartet which started in student years of Tchaikovsky conservatory, supposedly Rostropovich was the cellist in the beginning, and Berlinsky came instead of him. He was the only original member to play in the quartet almost until his death, so for 62 years!! Since 1945. until 2007.
Check out the video of Mendelssohn quartet in my channel if you want! Thanks.
what happened to the last movement...
מהותו של משיח עדין ואיטי עם פריטות ב1, 2 ו4 ומלחמה בשלישי. וסיום ב2. ועם שבת וחזרה בתשובה קשה ביותר לניגון. עוד נגיעה בראשון.
70's or early 80's?
17:16
Excellent performance, but the video taking is very bad, all at weird angles.
El segundo movimiento es de una finura...y de una fuerza, al mismo tiempo.
おじいちゃんの昔話スタート！
囲炉裏を囲んで
rajoy on the second violin
Adria Torras hahahahahaha
The final chord kind of slipped.
Awesome! If only the cellist could have moved the D up a just a little bit in pitch on the last note.
the first violin seems to be a psycho
lovely although solos could be a bit louder . not the best Borodin ever. Either sound engineer needs sacked or 1st violin needs to lean on his bow a little bit
It's a bit unlikely that the 1st violin of the Borodin quartet - least of all this particular one - needs any lessons in sound production :-)
It's from a big hall. It's 80s. They sound very very good!
