I was privileged to hear this masterpiece in a theater. This video is just wonderful, but it's a whole different feeling when you hear it in real life.
un chef d''oeuvre de plus de Brahms, non plus de la jeunesse ni de la maturité mais de l'adieu au royaume de la terre, c'est une sorte de testament ultime d'automne quand l'on se prépare lentement à un départ inéluctable, mélancolique sans être triste avec le sentiment du devoir accompli, la note finale à une vie qui aura été riche de sentiments et d'émotions.
This is Classical Soul! Awesome performance! This Adagio is the most beautifull classical adagio ever written in my humble opinion....Brahms...my favorite classical composer.
Wonderful performance of one of the greatest ever pieces of chamber music. And such an amazing recording - so much depth and intensity and focus and clarity. A superb technical achievement as well.
The best performance of this piece I've ever heard. Exquisite, breathtaking ensemble. Special kudos to Marie Chilemme and Damien Bachmann. Very inspiring. Thank you!
Can you actually imagine someone watching this and then saying "Thumbs Down! What garbage!"... And yet there are fifty such people. Perhaps inebriated and couldn't understand the meaning of symbols they clicked on? I just can't imagine anyone taking the time to click on the link to listen to this and then deciding it's bad enough to take the time and effort to give it a thumbs down. That said, there are many things happening in this world today that I can't imagine and clearly don't understand. A truly spectacular performance of a truly spectacular piece. If you disagree with that assessment, please explain. Thanks.
I don't have to imagine. When I was young I thought this kind of music was garbage. And when I was playing this very video on my speakers recently, a housemate said they didn't like it. People like different kinds of music. But why someone would take the time to navigate to this video and then give it a thumbs down? Probably because someone else had raved about it and said you gotta listen to this it's amazingly good, or something. So they came and disagreed.
Not everybody needs to like the same. People that know other recordings of this piece may prefer those (not necessarily dislike this one though). For my personal taste, the quartet plays very smoothly, but the clarinet is unfortunately almost inaudible way too often. Not sure why, it may be the recording/mixing, but I just don't like it that way.
Quelle beauté que cette vidéo ! Une œuvre magnifique et une interprétation extraordinaire de cohérence et de sincérité ! Bravo à ces cinq excellents solistes et merci infiniment pour ce très beau partage qui nous va droit au cœur !
il m a fallu du temps pour découvrir toute la magie de brahms , sa profondeur musicale , ses romances nostalgiques , j en restais aux classiques bach haydn mozart , beethoven , il ne s agit pas de concourir mais brahms vint en digne successeur de ces piliers géniaux que furent les pères créateurs de la musique , merci au quatuor ébène et merci pour le partage ,,
le troisième mouvement est un pur joyau musical , la quintessence a laquelle brahms seul nous a habituée depuis le départ de beethoven , merci au quatuor ébène pour nous rendre tous les secrets intimes de cette musique sensuelle , virevoltante , donc chaque harmonie nous prend par le coeur avant de nous plonger dans une féerie que l on ne voudrait jamais quitter ,,
Yes - a lovely performance of a beautiful work. Bravo Ébène String Quartet and Damien Bachmann. Bravissimo Herr Brahms! David Alexander Lillis. Wellington, New Zealand. 4 June 2024
I like to imagine that in part of this movement Brahms recalls the occasion when at a young but impressionable age, and unable to sleep in a stifling hot Hamburg summer night, he heard a haunting gipsy melody floating up from a nearby tavern in the docks.
This Quintet has its specific 'Gypsy' character which totally surrenders to the wild and deep feelings that come from the lonely heart of a wanderer and an eternally in love but somewhat tragically love-sensitive man.
The music of Brahms is often described as "autumnal." It isn't, always, but sometimes the word is apt. Especially if one's years have passed the number of Bill's sonnet. Also read two by Tennyson, "Ulysses," and "Tithonus."
I loved this performance - the adagio is so chock full of longing, it chokes me up each time I hear it. My go-to performance of this is an old one of the Busch quartet with Reginald Kell; it’s from 1937, and the adagio is a good deal slower and more ‘stately’. FWIW, I dislike YT comments that insist on ranking different interpretations of masterworks. Despite their differences, I shall continue to enjoy both.
You all probably dont give a damn but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.

His late clarinetcompositions are his very "TOP compositions" in chambermusic because of his love for clarinetplayer Richard Mühlfeld. The piano- and celloparties in his clarinettrio and certainly his clarinetquintet are "a one and only" love declaration to the clarinet in music history, read Richard Mühlfeld: His "Fraulein klarinet"!
En så fantastisk klarinettist i detta fabulösa stycke musik! Så underbart mjuk och ändå fyllig ton! Även stråkarna helt makalöst bra! Magnifikt tusen tack 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
C'est difficile de trouver le bon son pour ce quintette : sombre, rêveur, nostalgique... Les artistes y arrivent bien, ce qui donne de la puissance émotionnelle à cette interprétation.
"b.p.ever" ---Wie kann man so einen Blödsinn schreiben? Klar. Dies ist eine sehr gute Aufführung. So wie es sicher Hunderte gibt, die ebenfalls "best" sind.
Vorrei saper suonare uno strumento ad arco o il clarinetto per poter eseguire anche solo le prime battute. Benché le classifiche lascino il tempo che trovano, credo che questo Quintetto sia tra le composizioni di musica da camera più incredibilmente belle che siano state scritte, un miracolo, una meraviglia "patrimonio dell'umanità". Brano di una ispirazione celestiale, racchiude una tristezza profonda e irrimediabile, struggente fino alle lacrime e, allo stesso tempo, costituisce uno dei vertici della tecnica dell'elaborazione motivica brahmsiana, un capolavoro assoluto di levigatezza formale. Irraggiungibile Brahms, splendida esecuzione! 🥲
È un capolavoro, sia dal punto di vista compositivo che espressivo. Lo suoni con il clarinetto in La , un semitono più basso di quello classico. Questa interpretazione del quartetto ebene è meravigliosa. È una delle ultime composizioni di Brahms. Io sono un clarinettista ma non ho mai avuto la fortuna di poterlo eseguire.
Considero essa a melhor obra de cámara do repertório e o concerto 622 do Mozart a melhor obra sinfônica para clarinete, dedicado a Stadler e seu clarinete baixo.
At some point the word "autumnal" entered the bloodstream of talking about Brahms's lateish music for clarinet. This was a mistake. This music is not about melancholic resignation; it's Brahms raging against the dying of light, violently protesting rather than admiring the leaves falling in autumn. Bachmann and the Ebene do this right.
Brahms knew most all music before him, and quoted it in his music. For example, I can hear Telemann at the part starting at 7:06 There are also parts that remind of Haydn, Mozart, and von Weber they say.
I'd say the title for greatest hit of 1891 goes to Debussy's "Suite bergamasque" or rather that one piece out of it that everybody knows: "Clair de lune". Dvorak's 4th Piano Trio "Dumky" is also from 1891. So it's hard to decide. ;)
I'm so dumb. I was looking for a particular piece of classical music, and all I had to go on was that I _think_ it's in B minor. "Clarinet Quintet Op. 115" showed up on the list. My first thought was, "Well, I know that the song I'm thinking of doesn't have five clarinets jamming together, but I've got to hear this! Only to learn that a "clarinet quintet" is, of course, typically a string quartet plus ONE clarinet. NOT FIVE CLARINETS. This is a lovely performance though. I doubt replacing all the strings with clarinets would serve it. This probably has precisely the right number of clarinets. Leave it to Brahms, amirite? K I'm gonna go now.
- You cannot play doublestops, vibrato, pizzicato and tremolo on one tone on a clarinet. - The clarinet in A cannot play below "small" c sharp, so you need a cello for the bass range. - The sound of the clarinet is perfectly embedded into the strings; the sound of five clarinets would be completely different.
@@Nostalgicavenue2000ugh you ruined it with your pedantic comment. Did you use to tell people not to end a sentence with a preposition too before that was debunked?
@@damienbachmann I am pleasantly surprised to hear the answer from you personally, Herr Bachmann! I saw that you play with Tosca because i saw the emblem, I wonder if the modification was made in Switzerland? Regarding the mouthpiece, I also use the Licostini LN model, and the reeds are Danzi, Leutner and Segelke. I will be happy if you share the model of the mouthpiece and reeds. Thanks for the reply. I hope to be able to hear live your magic sound soon as possible. I've been looking for this sound for almost 30 years. Greetings , be healthy!
For me, it’s my opinion that has value, and it’s a premium. As for others, I read them and move on, nothing more nothing less. I’m indifferent to all the noise.
The violist did a masterful job. I don't remember ever hearing the lines as much in any other recording.

A truly lovely piece of chamber music. Such beauty and such longing, how is a mere mortal to bear it?

Don’t focus on such things.
Just enjoy what you enjoy.

Honor that and get on with your life.

Finishing up reading a Brahms bio & decided to give this a listen based on the description of the piece therein. Lovely!
Que obra tan maravillosa compuso Brahms con clarinete en la parte final de su vida. Desde Mozart este instrumento no había sonado tan sublime.
I like to imagine that in part of this movement Brahms recalls the occasion when at a young but impressionable age, and unable to sleep in a stifling hot Hamburg summer night, he heard a haunting gipsy melody floating up from a nearby tavern in the docks.
A Truly Spectacular Viola Player in Action Which Brings the Group to a Much Higher Level and a Good Cello Player with a Good Vibrato so Thumbs Up
This Quintet has its specific 'Gypsy' character which totally surrenders to the wild and deep feelings that come from the lonely heart of a wanderer and an eternally in love but somewhat tragically love-sensitive man.
This is a most wonderful, expressive performance . Thank you so much
Shakespeare, Sonnet 73. Also Wordsworth, "...thoughts that lie too deep for tears." Thanks for posting this devastatingly beautiful performance.
I am curious what makes you think of these poems in particular, in connection to this Clarinet Quintet...
The music of Brahms is often described as "autumnal." It isn't, always, but sometimes the word is apt. Especially if one's years have passed the number of Bill's sonnet. Also read two by Tennyson, "Ulysses," and "Tithonus."
Danke für diese Aufführung einer meiner Lieblings-Musiken: Strömung unter den Tragflächen des Lebens.
A deeply felt and highly expressive performance of this masterpiece. Beautifully recorded as well. Thank you!
Hurrah! What a wonderful performance! Dear performers! I congratulate and wish you perform well in more and more pieces like this.
Wonderful performance! It's breathtaking. God bless you all.

I ask RUclips to get the recording of Brahms with Reginald Kell and the Busch quartet from 1940+- it is old-but the best…
That’s not how that works at all
is it just me or was that some feeble applause for an absolutely sublime and world class performance of this quintet?
I think they were shell-shocked by just how marvelous this performance was. I certainly was.
