In the letter posted from Vienna on 10 April 1784 Mozart wrote to his father: "I wrote two great concertos and quintet which was received with enthusiasm. This is the best thing I ever written in my life(…)" I believe he would be very happy to listen to this performance. 😊🤞
Mozart wrote to his father after the first performance of this work, telling him that he considered this piece to be the best thing he had ever written!
Jhon Jeric Elloreg Lauz it's nice, but it's far from the best thing he wrote. I prefer the similar Beethoven Quintet for Piano and Winds, opus 16, also in Eb major.
🎶 Yes 👍 Mozart's reason for this letter is that this beautiful music is like a story . A story from Mozart's childhood and good and bad memories of that time . like a memorable video from his good childhood which had turned into music . Of course, the work is very beautiful and technically powerful . It's so important that Beethoven is inspired by it . Also the ending is as happy as ever 🎶
@@timothythorne9464 🎶 Never consider Beethoven's work better than Mozart . Because Beethoven couldn't be better than Mozart, he took a different approach . In Mozart's works, there is love, passion and genius that isn't found in anyone else's works 🎶
@@timothythorne9464 that's highly subjective and I really am not liking how you worded it. It comes off as immature and elitist. If you prefer beethoven that's totally fine but I really don't like how you are trying to put one over the other. Are you even a composer? I'm not but I'm not the one judging here and if so where have your works been played and how much experience do you have?
@@rilke1791 I didn't suggest the Beethoven work is "better" than the corresponding piece by Mozart, only said that I preferred it. Beethoven's piece is more lyrical and has engaging, even dancable melodies in its finale.
We tread on thin ice when we describe one composer's piece as "better" than a similar work by another composer. I strictly avoided saying Beethoven's work is "better." The two composers had different objectives in composition and each achieved great things within their own realms.
Mozart is most playful in his writing for small ensembles. Both the quartets and this quintet for piano are masterpieces. Since all the instruments are on equal footing, they are able to dialogue and pass themes between themselves with great ease.

3. Allegretto 19:14
I'm glad I wasn't there, ' cause I cried so hard, non stop till the end.
Such a creation you don't believe it's possible. Felt like witnessed a miracle. Great performance with pleasant surprise in horn part.
I have listened to many different versions already, I knew the piece well, but the magic is still vivid, clear and fresh, making my soul naked like a baby, then it touched me so gently that I had no choice but breaking into tears.
Only Mozart makes me cry like that. Only Mozart...and blessed people who are allowed to perform the miracle. Oh my, such an experience. Thank you so much.
It is unfortunate that Mozart is underrated by many music lovers. I saw a lot of comments putting down Mozart, yes, there are so many in You Tube. Just compare to Bach who almost never get bashed. Poor soul, they don't know what they are talking, they don't know what they are missing.
Thank you again for performing my favorite piece. In a concert like this, I think I should sit in far back with tissues ready in my hand.
🎶 This work is very lovely and joyful ! 🤔 Listen to this if you want to cry : The String Quintet No. 4 in G minor, K. 516 🎶🎻
Once in my life I really seemed at the bottom and no latter to climb. Then I one evening heard Mozart although I that time most listened to modern music and rock. ... Then .there it was - love present in the moment for real in the tones , in the music. It was impossible to ignore- Then from that day (45) I swished totally yo classical music....
Very lovely words. But Mozart is not underrated. There are a milliard of people like you and me he brings quiet and peace. 😅😊❤❤❤
I feel you totally. Yes music lovers still do underrate Mozart as if admiring him is some kind of naive taste-wise, unlike the "intelligent" Bach, there's nothing more nonsense than that kind of assessment. the sublime beauty and the intricate compositions, the heartwarming wit and humour, the infinite imagination, and great love only Mozart could have created are just incomparable. However as Busoni or some other great musicians said before, Mozart is always underrated no matter how much we worship him, because his genius is way beyond us.

Yes, there's been others composing quintets for piano and winds, but none comes near this by Mozart. Mozart, Oh, Mozart!
Beethoven's is just as perfect, imho.
Nick M. Beethoven's similarly scored piece is more attractive than this IMO.
If you could not draw a piano around with you what wind instruments could you substitute it with?
Beethoven wollte Mozarts Quintett mit seinem Klavierquintett op16 übertrumpfen. Es gelang ihm nicht.
@@martyisokay The woodwind writing in the Beethoven quintet is much more mundane than Mozart's and not as idiomatic for the instruments they're written. There's also larger stretches where they don't have anything to play. The only reason these pieces are even recorded together is because they're the only quintets for this ensemble, but there's a world of difference between Mozart's woodwind writing and Beethoven's.
This IS the most splendid music ever written, full of love and joy -the music of he heart and executed flawless and with great compassion.
So great great-how wonderfull!!
I really enjoy how the clarinetist is using a variety of dynamics and colors. So often, you get folks who feel everything has to be loud, but not here....bravo!
every time this piece is played god speaks...
Mozart , que maravilla de composicion, talento, belleza, elegancia, no alcanzan los adjetivos
Bravissimi tutti,ma soprattutto Mozart per aver ideato un simile capolavoro!
the horn parts was so amazing and beautiful
What a lovely performance of this beautiful work. This, K452, is a companion piece to the glorious wind serenades K361, K375, and K388. And of course the two piano quartets.
What a delicious performance! For once one could hear every note of the horn part, because she was capable of making the horn sound both 'like a woodwind' for blending (per the conventional wisdom) OR like an aggressive brass instrument (which was unusual for this piece but wonderful to hear for a change). Bravo!
Very perceptive comment.
Katy is and always was a bit special. Not for nothing was she in the Philharmonia's horn section whilst still a student - and almost instantly becoming Co-Principal upon leaving the RCM, and becoming a very young Professor of Horn at the RAM... Probably the finest horn player of the present era.
I recognised Katy from another video the LSO had done titled "Instrument: The horn" on the French Horn that I'd just watched a few days ago, and this was a pleasant surprise :) I agree, the dynamics were brought out beautifully - from the silky smooth comforting woodwind-like tones to the grand, strutting tone of a bold brass instrument.
Yeah the horn is usually the weakest link on this piece but she makes it seem like it fits right in.
There's just something magical about chamber music for wind instruments.
J'espère qu'en 2021, les membres de ce Quintet sont demeurés inchangés. Quelle performance par chacun d'eux. Un enchantement pour le coeur et l'oreille.
좋은 연주 감사합니다.^^
Such a great piece. Like 20th time Ive listened to this incredible chamber work!
the prettiest and most enchanting piece of music ever written
The whole piece is beautiful but 11:30 to 15:05 strikes me as being almost supernatural. How did he do it?
Bra o
Bravo, beautiful Mozart quintet.
it is really an incredible performance.
The things you get in live performance and not the studio... Bravo.
Love it. So nicely done. Great!
Beautiful performance, excellent presentation. Thank you.
Stunning performance! Bravo!!
良い感じですね。
これぞ、モーツァルトさん！
So beautiful
Heavenly music heavenly performed
Wonderful performance. Thank you for sharing it, but please take out the Netflix ad in the middle of the last movement. The beginning before is fine but not in the middle.
Bravo! an excellent musical performance!
Beautiful performance!
🎶 Bravo 👍 10:22 - 18:12 - 24:15 🎶
I love how the comments are filled with random timestamps
Still one of the best performances of this splendid work but interrupted in the middle of movements by idiotic ads no one wants to see in the middle of Mozart's music! Please get rid of them - before if you want, but NOT in the middle!
very good
Thank you for sharing such a fine performance.
Ne me demandez pas pourquoi je pleure aux premières notes de ce quintet
John Oliver did a great job in his oboe
It doesn't much look like John Oliver, He was a violist in highschool, but on the positive side, the oboist is Olivier Stanckwiecz (I think that's how you write it).
Apparently Mozart was extremely proud of this piece
He once said this was the best piece he written.
1:25 - 1:43, sublime
Bravo!!!👏👏👏
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤thanks😍
너무 아름다워.... from Korea
Nice 🙂
Bravi!!!!
יפה מאוד...
Bravo
The only other version I've heard is a 1955 EMI recording of the Dennis Brain Wind Ensemble. This seems like a recording with wonderful separation and blending. Love the musicianship. I wonder what Papa Mozart wrote back.
bravo
1:11 ??
I swear I heard a similar piece somewhere, I know this melody well. can't stop singing it.
If someone knows please tell me!!..
try the beethoven quintet for winds and piano, inspired by mozart !
Guillaume DAVID
Thanks ❤❤
@@guillaumedavid6418 Beethoven copied Mozart. After he helped poison him.
Another possible option is the "Elvira Madigan" piano COncerto... the andantes have similar melodies [on the horn in the quintet, the piano in the concerto]. I think this quintet is superior in the sensitivity with which everything is developed..... incomparable delicacy. And yes, the Beethoven quintet. And maybe Brahms's glorious horn sonata.
Listen the “ GRAND PARTITA”. There you’ll find it back❤
The beginning of the slow movement sounds like it was taken directly out of the orchestral introduction to an aria from any of his operas. Great composers steal. not so great composers imitate.( Stravinsky) .
15:43
2nd movement 10:38
Could be more precise ;)
Pianist acting like he is to die of St Vitus' dance any minute now. No need for such over-acting, at the contrary. All else very fine, woodwinds cheerful and correct and harmonious, and the horn indeed wonderfully balancing at the edge of not being a real genuine woodwind :)
19:15
When in doubt, play Mozart.
Very helpful comment since I'm deciding if playing this or Beethoven quintet at my graduation. Thanks mate
I am eating Mozartkügeln and listening. Suddenly I almost choked on my Mozartkügel when I comprehended that Mozart means "moose-art", the art of the mooses. In some cultures a moose in considered as "the king of forest". The moose lodge is a white supremacy organisation for he-who-dominates-forest- white, aryan, german race. Mozart was also a mason himself.
Conspiracy much?
עם צ'מבלו נשי עם מקלדת לימיל אז בכלל לא היה פסנתרזה מחליא עם פסנתר המצאה מ1799 במוסיקה קלה ביותר והומורית ומינית ביותר בלי סיום, מוצרט היה מלחין סאונדטארד וקורטיזון לנשים אצילות להבדיל מבטהובן דון ד'יאובני. כולל צודוגה למשפחת צור הרוסית עם מוסיקה כלבנית לענים באוסטריה.שזה מושג חשוב במוסיק כל כך קלה ברמה של נער בן 13 וסוף חולני ופדי שמסתייךבפתאומיות לצחחה וטורפדו לפדים.עם החצוצרה פתוחה וסגורה לדקה בסוף. בסיום 3 מלחמת גוג ומגוג.
The bassoon player looks like Ethan Hawke lol
Light weight players thumbs down , ruining it
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
Just another asshole elitist, don't bother with him. Trying to judge people on their performance on an instrument they know nothing about. These are principal players, and I have no idea what he is talking about, in any case even if they weren't good players this comment is cunty and tells a lot about how he was raised
Recognised by the best orchestras and music academies in Europe as some of the finest players of their generation - light weight I think not.
