I agree today and many days in the past and future. On some days, though, I'd vote for Beethoven's Diabelli Variations, like this Quintet a work of beauty, depth, and pure genius.
AH, to you, outer space is somewhat like a desert island and this is your desert island music. My friend, on the contrary, outer space is full of intelligent life forms lot more advance than us. However, they will not appreciate this SCHUBERT chamber like you did. ENJOY.
The finest work of all chamber music. Schubert is a real genius. He composed several greatest works in western music history during his last years of life. It is a miracle.
...and at the other end of his life he managed to compose Gretchen am Spinnrade (I'm just going to say it), the greatest lied ever written, at the tender age of seventeen. Impossible and unbelievable.
I couldn't agree more. After refine sweetness of the 1st movement suddently the dark fantasy of 2nd movement is shock the audiences. It's so sweet, sadness of funeral march and suddend stormy in the middle which right after the storm its becomes real feneral. This movement I love the most. It's beautiful and scary in the same time.
If this is not the most sublime, and glorious and heartfelt piece of music ever written, then what is? Mozart comes close, so too Beethoven. But this man, glorious Schubert, has it all here.The most perfect piece of compositional genius. Ever!
@@martyheresniak5203 Do you have a soul? Do you have ears to listen? Never mind trite advice from your "second grade teacher" and I'm sure he/she was just that. Second Grade. Listen again, and be in awe of some of the most sublime music ever, ever, written. Pip Pip
@@grangetowncardiff6935 What an ass. How utterly knit-picky. I was not speaking of the music nor its quality, but of the unfortunate use of superlatives. Perhaps you should work on your reading comprehension. And, no, I do not have a soul. I don't believe in that kind of fairy tale.
There is a mathematical enigma here. This string quintet, which has been a favourite of mine for more than half a century, clearly requires five players; but in this utterly outstanding performance, a single heart beats throughout, and a single soul sings. I have never heard the like of it. (And I notice, in this church setting, that the signs for "PEACE" and "HOPE" have been unceremoniously stashed away in a corner, as though in recognition of the fact that in Schubert's all-encompassing vision, such banal slogans have no place in the expression of true sublimity. Thank you, thank you.
I agree with everything you say except the banners. They are positioned directly behind the lectern where Scripture is proclaimed and where the preacher holds forth. But yes, there is no place for banality, spiritual or otherwise, in the presence of Schubert--and Emerson.
Franz Schubert 1797-1828 Quintette à corde avec violoncelles, en Ut Majeur, D956. Ce quintette a été composé par Franz Schubert deux mois avant la fin de sa courte vie, à 31 ans. C’est sa dernière œuvre de musique de chambre, elle est contemporaine de sa 9ème symphonie, dite « La Grande ». Un quintette est une pièce musicale écrite pour cinq instruments à cordes. Contrairement à Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart qui utilisait un effectif de deux violons, deux altos et un violoncelle, Schubert a substitué une partie d’alto par un second violoncelle, ce qui confère une dimension plus dense, et laisse le loisir au violoncelle soliste de s’exprimer totalement. Avant lui, Luigi Boccherini utilisa à plusieurs reprises cet effectif. Lumière et crépuscule, inquiétude et sérénité, alternent en permanence. Schubert composa deux quintettes : celui-ci pour deux violoncelles, et celui, fameux, avec piano, « la truite ». Ce quintette est divisé en quatre mouvements, « allegro ma non troppo, adagio, scherzo et allegretto ». Il ne fut pas joué en public du vivant de Schubert : un seul concert fut consacré entièrement à ses compositions avant sa mort, en 1828, et sa création - supposée - daterait de 1850, au Musikverein de Vienne.
I saw them quite a lot in the early eighties. They were booked for a concert at a small chamber music series held in the chapel at Bard College. They were booked before they won a big something or other (of which I see no mention in their Wikipedia article nor on their website) and played just after. The place was packed because of the notoriety. They apparently liked the series because they came back subsequent seasons. I was lucky to be the local critic and get all those free tickets. They were the first quartet I had encountered that swapped out the first and second violin parts. That is pretty much standard now.
WOW. What an emotional and amazing situation they made. Return of the former 35 years member! Great to see this. They made a disc of that masterpiece with the great Slava, and the disc is still my all-time favorite.
I finally found it! My only source of information of music was only encarta and as a nine year old kid I always loved the classical music. Encarta only gives you snippets of the pieces and this was one of them that has always clung to me. It's been long since I've been in touch with the Classics and I remembered this tune and I'm so happy I found it
i find youtube to be a great source of music performances no matter what your tastes. The resolution of the files is not what I'd like to see but great playing shines forth in spite of that. I have thousands of performances bookmarked so I can sit back and listen to them at will. I use and external DAC that feeds my stereo so I can hear what these files have to offer. My DAC treats lower resolution files very kindly so the sound I get is quite good, I would rate musicality as more important than ultimate detail that would tend to highlight the resolution of the file (bitrate) more.
Indiscutibilmente uno dei capolavori assoluti della musica da camera. Ogni paragone sarebbe inappropriato. Vi sono altre gemme che risplendono tanto quanto questa. Ma ora, ed ogni volta che la sentiamo, godiamoci questa. Per quanto conosco, il q. Emerson è l'unico degno erede in attività del q. Amadeus, del q. Italiano e del q. Alban Berg.
Super good performance. I went to their concert at stony-brook. It was very different them what we could hear on youtube. Highly recommend go to the concert, pay and listen.
Emerson is able to play with deep feeling without schmaltz or sentimentality. The performance is clear, direct, patient, and assured, with nothing to prove to anyone. This gives it a deep spiritual quality, as if all unessentials have been left behind, leaving only the music's pure, timeless soul. Is there any way this recording could be made available for download or purchase?
Remarkably stormy and intense for C major. Masterful. I knew 1st violinist Phil Setzer and recorded him in his early days, around 1971 at Franconia college in New Hampshire
Thank you, Franzl 😇 for leaving behind such a treasure of music!!!! And thanks to such great artists we are able to listen and stunning by our hearts!❤ 🙏
Magnifique interprétation d’une oeuvre magnifique. Elle n’a rien à envier aux interprétations du passé (Casals et les Budapest, Casals et Tortellier, Heifetz et les Budapest…). Elle vient simplement s’ajouter en toute humilité.
at around 27:00, the coda to the 2nd movt. is one of the most heart-breaking in all music. And played here so honestly and without exaggeration. Simply stunning.
I’m on my 3rd year of playing cello. We are doing “small groups” in my school orchestra, and we ended up with 2 cellists. We have an ensemble of 106 in the large class, and 40ish in the higher level class. We wanted to play a quintet with 2 cellos, and I am so excited to play this piece. Thank you for sharing!
This is so sublime and heavenly! I am sending it to my former piano mentor, William Corbett-Jones of San Francisco, a marvelous pianist and person who loves Schubert! Happy Holidays,....
먼저 이런 대가들이 연주한 아름답고 소탈한 무대가 가슴에 와닿으며 (한국과는 다른 공연 분위기)에머슨퀄텟과 핀켈의 연주가 너무나 감동입니다. 어쩜 이렇게 최상의 밸런스와 고양된 음색으로 서로의 음역에서 조화로울수 있는지..이것이 진정한 연주의 자유로움이 아닐까요.. How beautiful performance it is!! how could they play so harmonious and so best balanced in music ! just. maestro's expression.!! also Ich muss sagen ,ich wundere mich so sehr , wie sie so harmonisierten in ganzen Musik,in beste Balance!! so faszinierte Interpretation immer -hin ausspruch!
I just noticed at 39:39 instead of going A to D on the E string with 1st and 4th finger, he uses 1st and 3rd finger. Mad skills! Either he’s bored or that stretch is easier than using 4th finger. Emerson is my favorite quintet 🤗
Gorgeous piece so wonderfully played. Thank you for posting it. Thanks also to Alec for mentioning the Emerson CD of this piece which I will order today.
As a professional cellist, I appreciate the sentiment, but no. Bach’s Cello Suites are not even the greatest string music ever written, not even HIS greatest string music
I adore and marvel at Schubert's quiet place there alongside Beethoven et al. What treasures of profound ponderings and outright statements that puts him in a position for contributions (he was writing half step modulations before others conceived of such) to the growth of music. He did this right alongside Beethoven without demand or apology. It's as if Schubert emerged fully mature and musically refined which only got better. 31 years on this planet and left dozens of musical treasures for audiences to appreciate the timeless relevance of this music. This work defies description or summary. It has simply to be listened to in rapt attention and reverence.
Pocos autores pueden expresar sentimientos tan profundos como Schubert en toda su música de cámara. Este quinteto es un claro ejemplo de ello. En cuanto a los intérpretes, PERFECTOS
I'll raise you the one with Pablo Casals and the Vegh Quartet. Slava was the greatest soloist in history but for Chamber Music and Bach Suites there is only Pablo.
Like the first light of dawn, this music opens your eyes to new promises and to all the wonders of nature. Evocative of powers beyond observation, these pieces pull the strings of the heart, attract nostalgia and awaken the loves, the skinned lives and torpor of the sleeping watchmen
I think comparisons like this are inappropriate and silly. Beethoven’s and Schubert’s music were completely different! Why do we have to compare everything to Beethoven? Let’s just enjoy each for what they are!
I wonder how felt Finckel playing it with a new member of his old quartet, he was playing for many years. He did legendary recording with Rostropovich and now he is playing with Watson, but the 2nd cello...And Finckel sweet tone is unmemorable...Like ex and current wife together ;)
In the preCOVID realm, the Merriam-Webster`s definition of "unmemorable" used to be this : www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/unmemorable Alas, apparently no more... And neither Paul Watkins, as i just realized, called these days Watson... And then, as if all of that was not enough, those subtle wives` innuendos ... O tempora! O mores!

Hoy estuve en el Parque Metropolitano de mi ciudad natal, Santiago de Chile. El parque es un cerro, una puñalada de las primeras montañas de los Andes sobre el valle en que se asienta la ciudad. En la falda sur de este cerro el conquistador Pedro de Valdivia estableció su campamento, aunque luego fundó la ciudad un poco hacia el poniente, dándole una planta de tablero de ajedrez, de acuerdo con las ordenanzas legales de la época. El lugar en que estuve se llama "TUPAHUE", es un híbrido de lengua quicha, la lengua de los conquistadores "Incas", en la cual TUPA o TUPAC es Dios, el Inca, el emperador, era un Dios, y la lengua de los aborígenes que ya estaban allí. los "mapuches", gente ("che") de la tierra (mapu). Es un lugar elevado un "Lugar de Dios", un sitio donde está Dios. Es un lugar muy adecuado para escuchar esta música trascendental, tan "humana" que toca al sentido de la vida, de la vida que se acerca a su fin. Como estoy próximo a comenzar mi octogésimo año de vida, escuché, en mi teléfono, este quinteto, para mí, la cumbre de toda la música occidental, en este lugar de Dios que conozco desde que tenía 6 años de vida y he visto evolucionar desde ser un lugar agreste hasta convertirse en el segundo parque urbano más grande de América. Lo escuché al pie de una palma chilena (jubae chilensis) palmera de lentísimo crecimiento, tan lento que si entierra su semilla, encerrada en una durísima cápsula. demorará cuando menos 10 años en abrirse y en aparecer el primer esbozo de una palma que demorará 100 años en llegar a unos 15 metros de altura. Esta palma fue traída desde la costa, unos 200 kms al poniente. Es un ejemplar joven, nacido del fruto de una palma que era un ejemplar también joven cuando Schubert vivía sus últimos días y escribía esta música inmortal.
Thank you very much for your poetically lyrical thoughts about growing older, holy Inca sites, slow-growing Chilean palms, and, especially, Schubert’s sublime Cello Quintet. I forwarded your beautiful comments to the members of the quintet that performed Schubert's late masterpiece. They were similarly moved by what you wrote.
The interpretation does not convince me: The powerful downward movement in the first sentence is artificial. The first violinist often plays impure, the sound of his instrument is very sharp and flat...

This is not The Trout. The Trout is a different Schubert quintet, but for the rather unusual combination of piano, violin, viola, cello and double bass.

Their CD from 1992 of this piece is probably the best interpretation that I've ever heard.

great music and performance of this schubert gem...
Sublime. I was sorry to hear of the quartet retiring.
I love duet the second theme of 1st movement by two cellos
I believe Schubert is who Mozart would have become if he had lived into the 19th century.
Exactely the same I think since my childhood. The fifth symphony of Schubert is like a postum Mozart symphony.
And Brahms is the rebirth of Schubert...
Love the opening of this piece. It has a very "Brahms 3rd Symphony" feel to it. The Emerson, of course, is brilliant.
The viola part is on 🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!
That was the instrument Schubert played in ensembles like this.
This video is super nice and relaxing
I just listened to this piece (I. & III.) at my college. This is one of my favorite pieces now
Thankyou for sharing this Michael.
good to see Finckel back together
Thank you. Wonderful.
What a legacy !! Amazing !!
And THIS could be burnt!!!!
Composer died few weeks after finishing this, and no one knew about this work
i think i'm in love with both cellists lol
FABULOUS
SALUTATIONS TO MAESTROS
THANKS from India
They're recording with Rostropovich in the early 90's is still the best interpretation, in my humble opinion.
I'll raise you the one with Pablo Casals and the Vegh Quartet. Slava was the greatest soloist in history but for Chamber Music and Bach Suites there is only Pablo.

Schubert could have been another Beethoven, had he lived longer, already created so many classics in his short life.

Amazing how throughout Schubert's music one can always hear the idea of death luring around
I wonder how felt Finckel playing it with a new member of his old quartet, he was playing for many years. He did legendary recording with Rostropovich and now he is playing with Watson, but the 2nd cello...And Finckel sweet tone is unmemorable...Like ex and current wife together ;)
In the preCOVID realm, the Merriam-Webster`s definition of "unmemorable" used to be this :

Hoy estuve en el Parque Metropolitano de mi ciudad natal, Santiago de Chile. El parque es un cerro, una puñalada de las primeras montañas de los Andes sobre el valle en que se asienta la ciudad. En la falda sur de este cerro el conquistador Pedro de Valdivia estableció su campamento, aunque luego fundó la ciudad un poco hacia el poniente, dándole una planta de tablero de ajedrez, de acuerdo con las ordenanzas legales de la época. El lugar en que estuve se llama "TUPAHUE", es un híbrido de lengua quicha, la lengua de los conquistadores "Incas", en la cual TUPA o TUPAC es Dios, el Inca, el emperador, era un Dios, y la lengua de los aborígenes que ya estaban allí. los "mapuches", gente ("che") de la tierra (mapu). Es un lugar elevado un "Lugar de Dios", un sitio donde está Dios. Es un lugar muy adecuado para escuchar esta música trascendental, tan "humana" que toca al sentido de la vida, de la vida que se acerca a su fin. Como estoy próximo a comenzar mi octogésimo año de vida, escuché, en mi teléfono, este quinteto, para mí, la cumbre de toda la música occidental, en este lugar de Dios que conozco desde que tenía 6 años de vida y he visto evolucionar desde ser un lugar agreste hasta convertirse en el segundo parque urbano más grande de América. Lo escuché al pie de una palma chilena (jubae chilensis) palmera de lentísimo crecimiento, tan lento que si entierra su semilla, encerrada en una durísima cápsula. demorará cuando menos 10 años en abrirse y en aparecer el primer esbozo de una palma que demorará 100 años en llegar a unos 15 metros de altura. Esta palma fue traída desde la costa, unos 200 kms al poniente. Es un ejemplar joven, nacido del fruto de una palma que era un ejemplar también joven cuando Schubert vivía sus últimos días y escribía esta música inmortal.
Thank you very much for your poetically lyrical thoughts about growing older, holy Inca sites, slow-growing Chilean palms, and, especially, Schubert’s sublime Cello Quintet. I forwarded your beautiful comments to the members of the quintet that performed Schubert's late masterpiece. They were similarly moved by what you wrote.
I prefere this first Violin 🎶
Superb performance, spoiled only by the usual unintelligent filming.
The interpretation does not convince me: The powerful downward movement in the first sentence is artificial. The first violinist often plays impure, the sound of his instrument is very sharp and flat...
Such a shame that this is interrupted in mid-phrase by your monetization arrangements.

Pardon my Ignorance ,but I'm guessing this is not the "Trout" ? Heh, heh, heh, & that would be because it's a "Quintet"
This is not The Trout. The Trout is a different Schubert quintet, but for the rather unusual combination of piano, violin, viola, cello and double bass.
Not very flattering lighting. Maybe that's what caused the occasional pitch problems. And way too serious.
Age has its benefits. Glad they’re not rushing like they used to... PS Ridiculously bad camera/editing work
The first violin is still too strong in the second movement.
