- The Gewandhaus Quartet plays the 2nd movement - Romance Andante - of Mozart's Serenade in G Major: Eine Kleine Nachtmusik (A Little Night Music).
K. 525
The Gewandhaus Quartet claims to be the oldest continuously active string quartet in history, and it has reason on its side, in that the principal strings of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra have been performing as the Gewandhaus Quartet for nearly two hundred years. The present foursome, though - Frank-Michel Erben and Conrad Suske, violins; Volker Metz, viola; and Jurnjakob Timm, cello - have been together merely for a decade. They played Sunday afternoon at San Francisco State University's McKenna Theater for an audience that I suspect was more interested in the repertoire than in the group's history.
As a quartet, the Gewandhaus have an unusual sound and a more unusual balance. The sound is very solid and concentrated, to the point where I started to feel the sameness - not of color exactly, but of density - as a little oppressive. These are players who don't "float" notes; they may play very quietly, but there is always some grain in the sound. And then the balance: I have never heard a quartet less interested in subordinating accompanimental parts to leading ones. It wasn't just a matter of the inner strings playing out; it was a sort of free-for-all, or so you might have called it had you not seen with what discipline the four played, hardly glancing at one another and not moving demonstratively except in a very few places.
Add that the players took unusual and exaggerative notice of articulation marks and accents, and that they bent tempo only when the score absolutely required it, and even I began to think, "Well, what else did you expect a quartet of principal strings from a top orchestra to play like?"
This melody has been with me for years, now I finally know where it was from!
This movement makes me warm and nostalgic inside. When I listen to it I picture myself nestled away in some European garden during Spring with flowers in full bloom and birds tweeting as I feel the warm afternoon sun beating down on my skin.
Wow!! This is heavenly, really beautiful comment👌👌👍👍🍷🍷🍸🍸🥂🥂🍹🍹🌈🌈
I’ve been obsessed with classical music ever since I was 10 and this is definitely my favourite Mozart piece. It’s so intoxicating listening to it, played with such delicacy and passion, it’s like kisses from Cupid
"intoxinating to listen to it" . The best wird's you could Express what I am also feeling. Thank you, Bro.
😮😮😅
3:23 the whole piece is beautiful. This part is superb! 🥰
Maravilhoso
Alwas changing tempo, and when you think its over, there it's speeding up again. :)
I used to listen to this nearly every morning on my drive to London from Oxshott in Surrey during the 1970's. Perfect performance - thank you so much.
What a wonderful drive.
Cool
I know this is going to make me sound like an overprivileged and spoiled posh but every time I listen to Luigi Boccherini’s “Minuetto”, Vivaldi’s “The Four Seasons”, and this… they make me dream of having afternoon tea inside any European mansion or palace.
This is the perfect tempo to play this, IMO! Not too fast, not too slow... Also, emphasis on just the right notes. So beautiful and a treat for the ears!
I've been looking for this particular piece ever since I was in nursery school, which says a lot about my musical tastes I suppose. I remember it from a very early memory, so I'm very glad to be able to enjoy listening to it here.
A superb performance of one of the most beautiful romantic pieces of music ever written!
Dan Brooks you mean classical, this wasn't composed in the romantic era, it was composed in the late 18th century.
That is true. It is classical, you're right. But it's still a romantic piece of music though isn't it? I'd say so. :)
I was introduced to this piece from the movie "Alien". The captain of the Nostromo played this when he needed some alone time.
I've listened to this piece when I was young, always heard and loved it. It's "Alien" that got me looking for it again, and it took me forever to find out the title of the piece. The search was agonizing, but so much satisfying after.
I always think of Captain Dallas on the Nostromo whenever I hear this. Excellent piece.
Arguably the greatest composition by a mortal....Mozart "is"a genius...
Who's listening in 2020? During the Covid-19 Pandemic?
Right here, sir!
here here
Here ;)
Here... 2020 would make a great novel if we weren’t in it😝
Me
this is music sent straight from god,absolutely majestic and beautiful...thank you wolfgang.
Couldnt agree more :) Is your display picture the Eagle Nebula?
Listen to it at 0.25x. So beautiful ☺️
he who not fall in love to
this has no soul or has never been in love
Dave Simpson I agree!
I've never been in love but I still fell in love with this piece oof
@@georgiam4764 then you have a soul
clean translation: "If you don't like this music, you either don't have a soul or you've never been in love."
I was infatuated with someone when I was 13 though.
This music will never fade away
Fucking masterpiece, the converstion between all the instruments, there's definitely a story being told
My favorite movement
#cardtricksforever
One of my favorites. I vividly remember my music appreciation teacher playing it and saying we were not expected to remember it. (I do not remember why. I think he pretty much thought it was basic and/or forgettable). When I heard it, I remember hearing it in movies. I pointed it out in a research paper (prior to google) what movies it had been in, just my my memory. Maybe he gained something from me letting him know that some people LOVE it.
2018 and still watching.
this is soooooo perfect
Beautiful. One of my favourite pieces by Mozart
This is my go-to when I'm feeling down. Lovely tempo!
muzika je prekrasna i nostalgična
Listen to this music with the play speed at 0.75; you won't regret it.
Deliciously wonderful phrasing! I'm gonna practice so I can play like this.
so gloriously beautiful. You cant have one rotten thought with this in your mind.
It still sounds high. Their intonation is impeccable but the entire ensemble seems to be tuned minutely higher than usual. For many of the notes I hear from the principal violin, it's like the frequency is almost perfect but the other wave properties are completely off, giving it a kind of "floaty" overtone that makes my hair stand. Speaking as a violinist of fourteen years.
Oh, that was so satisfying. I love the full range of sound.
This has alwys been my top piece of moosik but, this quintet nailed it. notches toppis. Danke.
Don't forget to give respect. For those who played this masterpiece to
BRAVO !
So pretty, such a delight to hear, you all play so well I'm inspired to learn to play this. Thank you.
Mozart is perfect ❤ this sounds perfect...
2018 and still here this is so perfect
Ovo je predivna muzika.
this song makes me feel rich
I can throw away my life's fortune to be in such an environment for a day.
Tantas lembranças de minha infância, eu amo!
Pure, simple and beautiful!
So beautiful…

que musica tan hermosa
I've never really *listened* to classical music but if I wanted to, where would I start? Seems so… broad a genre. But I wanna try at least. Help a stranger out? :)
Only here because this piece was mentioned in Night of Cake and Puppets by Laini Taylor.
there are "best of" videos of most of the big composers, those are great
That's too broad a question. Many people who have never listened to classical music think it's one genre. It isn't. It's like if I said "I've never listened to non-classical music before, where would I start?" Most people would probably tell me that, I don't know, Justin Bieber , The Beatles, Adele, and Iron Maiden make completely different music and it depends on what I like.
The exact same is true for "classical music". There are many genres in classical music, they're just divided into time periods.
It can be difficult to get into "classical music" when one isn't used to it at all, but nobody is born with a genetic aversion to it, either. I think, with, as you've said how broad the genre is (or rather, how many genres there are), everyone can actually find classical music they like.
If you like symmetry and complexity, turn to Bach. If you're more romantically inclined, you can never go wrong with Chopin or Mendelssohn. More the drama fan, and it's best when many people die? Puccini's your guy. Or should it be more experimental and unexpected? Schönberg, possibly.
You can start with the big names (like I just did), and work your way towards lesser known composers with a similar style, or you can do the exact opposite and find obscure pieces by little-known composers that you totally enjoy.
The most famous pieces may not always be the ones you like best. This, for example, is the second movement to an extremely famous first movement, and it's nice, but it's played so often that I, for one, simply don't want to hear it anymore. The second movement is still famous, but not nearly as overdone, and I like it much better (also, I actually think it is more beautiful). The same goes for Für Elise - it's nice, but I've heard it a million times, and the best part of it is always cut out when it's used in a film soundtrack etc, or when it's abbreviated/made easier so that beginner piano students can play it as well.
And when you've found the genre you like best, it still depends on which style you like. Completely instrumental or with singing? Dances? Something with a big orchestra or just a single instrument?
You can have wild and exciting or quiet and pensive, or sometimes both within one piece. They can make you smile and cry just like any other type of music.
So, I'm afraid the best advice anyone can give you is to explore, and also to really be open to it. If you've really had so little contact with classical music, it's possible that it will take some getting used to how different it is to what you ARE used to before you will really start to enjoy it.
Ik it’s been a while since you commented this lol, but if you’re into the piano section of classical music, look into Chopin and Liszt DEFINITELY. They have beautiful *_beautiful_* pieces. If you want more orchestral classical music ig, look more into Tchaikovsky and Mozart. They’re stuff’s just 👌🏽👌🏽 the crème of the crop. Also Rachmaninov has extremely intense classical pieces. They’re all amazing. These are my favorites: Chopin, Liszt, Mozart, Rachmaninov, and Tchaikovsky.
Start with Bach. He is the god of music anyways... His music teaches a lot about the genre.
Listen to Beethoven's 6th and 9th symphony, those are amazing :)
Fairly have do I fell in love with you guys!
Intoxicating......
Beautiful thanks!!
Beautiful!
Dallas brought me here.
I'm relaxing on the Narcissus 😊
Timeless❤️
I'm just working on my "Personal Life-Time Soundtrack", where I integrated this piece of music. And only just now, I read the description ...
But, oops: I read "Gewandhaus Quartet"; I read four names of players; I read about two violins, a viola, and a cello.
But what I see is a quintet; five players; two violins, a viola, a cello, and a double bass! What happened here?
you only learn to really appreciate classical music once you've actually had experience in the subject
一首高中音樂課裡的歌曲「思鄉」
中文歌詞與原曲的旋律兩相配合得完美無瑕
== 「思鄉」歌詞 ==
一輪明月高高掛在天上
悄悄地斜照著荒涼的草場
場上有個異鄉的遊子
獨自站在月下低頭默想
思想起他那可愛的故鄉
思想起他那年老的爹娘
不知他們是否安然無恙
是否也在月下低頭默想
wonderful sound!😁
Splendid
beautiful !!!
They just added the double-bass to their ensemble cause the piece is written for string quartett + an optional double-bass. The Main ensemble is still the 'Gewandhaus Quartett' though.
If this was the only string quintet Mozart wrote that includes a double bass, i'm not surprised.
A part of childhood...
Rip captain Dallas.
"Right"
Alien isolation brought me here
Chris Hazelwood says this is the saddest music ever written in the major key.
Hello, I download your posts, so thank you and forgive me for everything
Quelle merveilleuse interprétation! Sculptée, profonde, ciselée, articulée, et où on entend parfaitement les voix intermédiaires, quelle expérience!
i like it better here than on orchestra👍

@ Julia Baca, I don't think denniswhatshisname was being mean. Just pointing out something he noticed. I noticed it too. Doesn't mean this is anything less than brilliant.
