what a stellar performance!!! The great acoustics of the space, the recording itself ,the joy of 8 excellent musicians who have a concept of the music as a whole, the impeccable phrasing, dynamics and tone colour: it all takes my breath away.
I love how much fun they're having with this. they're all watching and listening to each other, which is of course what you do in a group, but they're so into it!
@@EvgeniyDolzhenko I agree! I feel like listening to recordings you miss out on such an important piece of the puzzle, I just can't enjoy it as much when I can't watch them play
The Octet Assemble gives a radiant sparkle of serenity and regal. The epitome of class!!! The musicians have a great synchronise exchange of communication. Extraordinary recording. Delightful to see and listen to Sol Gabetta.
Absolutely brilliant. I have to admit that I've accidentally missed out on listening to Franz Schubert's music for many years now, which was quite silly of me as Schubert was one of the greatest composers ever, and hearing this stupendous work here has been a really pleasant surprise. I'll listen to more of Schubert's music from now on. Brilliant world class players here as well.
Absolutely beautiful -- they are all completely immersed in the piece and each other. They are so attentive to every note and section. An excellent, well-filmed recording. Of the 'Octet' performances I've listened to, this is superb. Their engagement is captivating and infectious.
What a POWERFUL PERFORMANCE by such professional musicians a real blessing to see such talent perform such a wonderful piece. Thank you and God bless you all !
What a performance! The best I've ever heard, and I was a professional music reviewer for 20 years. The wide dynamic range of this group was so effective. Because their PP was so soft, their FF was never blaring and over done. Perfecto!!
I am always reminded of my excellent eighth grade teacher and a few in earlier grades who constantly warned us to avoid superlatives. Never the best. Never the worst. Never unsurpassed. Never the most wonderful. Something else can always come along. Or maybe there's something you've missed. Thank you Mrs. Mitchell.
@@graeme011 Schubert IS better than all the others, but the reason why cannot be explained in words. Therein lies the eternal mystery and magic of music.
Ascoltando per la prima volta l'ottetto di Schubert, ho notato un particolare stilistico musicale per me molto rilevante. È fantastico come Schubert concilia due stili musicali differenti tra loro. Poi, ovviamente, se lo esegue Sabine Meyer ( io sono un clarinettista) io rimango senza parole!!! Bellissima esecuzione👏
Schubert is a composer that I visit rarely, but whenever I listen to his music I feel amazed. Such a great Genius. Unfortunately he left us at 32, what a pitty... Great perfomance. I love how the clarinet mingles with the wooden instrument.
I heard a live performance of this once, just the once, and that was nearly 50 years ago. However the main themes were so catchy, that even now listening to this wonderful perfor.mance, it all comes back again.
I am transported by the music and the wonderful way it is played by this group of maestros. Watching and listening to such musicians who show so clearly that they love what they are doing makes them and the sound so beautiful.
Just beautiful and beautiful!!! Everyone is the great soloist. I meant all is world level of performer. I did not know that Schubert wrote this great master piece of Octet. I want to my big hand applause on everyone. BRAVO!!! Thank you for the great Music. God Bless on everyone.
Schubert is the master at bringing the sensation of "sehnsucht" to music - that almost imperceptible tinge of sadness or nostalgia just below the surface. So Viennese.
Yes those two words--sadness n nostalgia and I would add sadness for unfulfilled dreams and failed love pursuit and the prospect of facing life wounded.....
As the Austrians say, the situation is desperate, but not serious. Alfred Brendel (the greatest living Schubertian, imho) mentions that motto occasionally.
I hadn't heard of this piece before, but after only a few minutes I am completely convinced that this is going to be another great experience. In a great part this is thanks to these 8 people giving terrific performance!
It's interesting to hear the strong cello, as typically played by Sol Gabetta, reinforced by the double-bass playing an octave lower as played by Robert Vizvari. The result is very nice. In total by all these fine players, a great rendition of Schubert's beautiful piece.
An incredibly compelling performance! This piece is absolutely delightful, and even though it's quite lengthy I didn't once feel bored - owing to the composer and performers' brilliance equally. Bravo!
About 40 yrs ago a classically trained friend picked up in a record store this Octet & said "Buy this!, & I did. After listening for a few times concluded was among my favorite Schubert pieces!
Thank you so much for uploading this in its entirety, otherwise it would take me a lifetime of saving to be able to watch such concert in real life, I cried mid show. Thank you for making my dreams come true! for the musicians, you did amazingly!
Il est fort agréable d'écouter une telle musique surtout lorsque l'on se trouve en plein confinement ! Cela vous permet de vous évader en des lieux idylliques à caractère sylvestre ou pastoral. Outre l'auteur, il faut remercier les membres de l'ensemble octet. Il est amené par le premier violon que les autres joueurs suivent avec attention du regard. Chaque instrumentaliste s'exprime dans un ton mesuré qui se fonde dans un ensemble harmonieux même si par ci et par là un écho fâcheux vient rompre l'harmonie surtout en début d'enregistrement. Mais que de grâce et de raffinement dans l'exécution, ce qui vous transporte dans l'éther du Monde même si celui-ci se trouve actuellement tellement perturbé par la pandémie que nous subissons tous. Merci et bravo, les Artistes.
Ah oui je suis d'accord, c'est un bel enregistrement. D'autres personnes ressentent quelque chose de proche de ce que vous décrivez, en ce moment, car c'est mon cas!
Magnifique vidéo pour une grande prestation.La sensibilité schubertienne ds toute sa splendeur.Une symbiose entre les interprètes qui fait plaisir à voir , d'autant plus que c'est remarquablement filmé. Toute mon admiration.
Plus j'écoute ce concert, plus je suis enthousiaste ! C'est une partition géniale, toujours variée, contrastée, vivante et virevoltante et chaque instrumentiste est irréprochable. On sent que les interprètes s'écoutent et communient dans le plaisir de jouer ensemble., en donnant le meilleur d'eux-mêmes. Bref, communier à leur interprétation est chaque fois pour l'auditeur un plaisir rare. Bravissimo et merci.
Very lovely and so well-rehearsed! My one disappointment might have been a problem with the way it was miked ; when it was all done I had the feeling that it had perhaps been more of a concerto for clarinet with an assortment of accompany instruments.
In lockdown alone in my apartnent in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Since March. Such wonderful music to walk, trot and dance to, around my apartment, keeping me fit, physically and mentally. Magnificent! Massage for the mind, muscles and breath. And the musicians spreading their joy, bathing my eyes!
This is an extremely synergistic performance that creates a total very much greater than the sum of its parts. There is so much heart and soul coming from each player that you can't help but feel drawn into something very musically and emotionally satisfying. Bravo!!!!!
I love big, meaningless words, don't you? "Synergistic" just kind of rolls off the tongue & impresses **EVERYBODY**!! And, that's what you really WANT, right????
Classical music is a journey through the emotions, from the lively and exuberant to the serene and contemplative. Each piece is a masterpiece, inviting listeners to explore the depth of human sentiment through the magic of sound. 🚀🎵
I needed more than 40 years to love Shubert
Thanks God, I love Schubert today 🤍
Same here. A late discovery!

WHAT WOULD I DO WITHOUT THE U TUBE! I sing with them,play with them. And above all listen to all the wonderful performers. Thank you Tube.
Ditto!
Fabulous performance. I am a former professional clarinetist in the US. Balance is perfect. Special thanks to the clarinetist in this performance!
8人の奏者がそれぞれに楽しみながら最高の演奏を贈ってくれました。すばらしい演奏です。シューベルトは大好きです。
When we play music, we all speak the same language. Beautiful. Thank you.
I am sure Schubert composed this wonderful score with his friends in mind. What a pure moment of joy
Under lockdown in Scotland. I am gradually working my way through most of the concerts on RUclips. It's a great way to pass the time.
Haha yes. You've got a quite a few to go! There are probably upwards of 10 000 of them!
So much content - so little time.
Dito in Australia
David Watermeyer most of them lol ha ha lifetimes worth. Carry on though.
these 8 have chemistry
When you engage in this musical environment. You are safe from any type of virus or mind virus it kicks out fear and brings in love thankyou for this posting
It sends shivers down my spine. Brillant rendition by skilled musicians. Glad to see Argentine cellist Sol Gabetta in a great performance.
Also the double bass and cello sound very clearly and are recorded exceptionally well.
They are all such wonderful players, yet Alina shows her sheer pleasure and joy playing her violin. The music by schubert is beautiful.
Is that the one on clarinet?
Antje, officially the best violinist and teacher in the world, truly rocks here!
This is the best live performance of an ensemble I've ever seen.
What a genius was Franz Schubert, and what a wonderful interpretation! Thanks!
Marvelous performance! Schubert wins again. Those who think his music is dull, should listen to this one!
Wondermooi! Ik luister hier meerdere ochtenden per week naar, kan er niet genoeg van krijgen! Toffe muzikanten!
There is something wholesome about the way they move with the music, as if they are one with it.
what a stellar performance!!! The great acoustics of the space, the recording itself ,the joy of 8 excellent musicians who have a concept of the music as a whole, the impeccable phrasing, dynamics and tone colour: it all takes my breath away.
I totally concur. Well put!
You got it in one!
trop sublimes Interprètes et quel divin Schubert !
I love how much fun they're having with this. they're all watching and listening to each other, which is of course what you do in a group, but they're so into it!
Exactly, what most of the recording of classical music are missing out - the fun part, how many times we see the performers smiling being cut out etc.
Yes! Really enchanting!
@@EvgeniyDolzhenko I agree! I feel like listening to recordings you miss out on such an important piece of the puzzle, I just can't enjoy it as much when I can't watch them play
When I see music-making like this, I so wish I could be part of this... 😳😳😳
@@willdon.1279 I used to play in quartets, it's like that . Sort of like moving as one organism.
The sense of expansiveness the bass gives this work is majestic.
Formidable ! Que vive encore longtemps l'enthousiasme du génie de Schubert...
Admirable mélodie, apaisante et réconfortante tout à la fois.Merci, Maître Schubert,.pour le bienfait qu'elle apporte à notre âme. Samuel Quenon
These musicians were Heaven sent!
Wonderfull Schubert, for ever...Thank you for the unique version on this amazing Octet
The Octet Assemble gives a radiant sparkle of serenity and regal. The epitome of class!!! The musicians have a great synchronise exchange of communication. Extraordinary recording. Delightful to see and listen to Sol Gabetta.
The most beautiful performance of chamber music I’ve heard. They play with such integrity and understanding.

Beautiful double bass sound as he holds down the low end support and balance of the group.
J'admire, follement Quelle musique et quels interprètes ! Quelle meilleureveilleux ensemble

Great perfomance. I love how the clarinet mingles with the wooden instrument.

What can one say when presented with such genius...just listen and be grateful.

This is a really mesmerising performance of this masterpiece by Schubert.
Beautiful lock down viewing and listening. Thank you
This was an unusual but delightful piece of work. The octet team looked as though they were enjoying it too. Thank you.
Note the complicity with the music by the facial expressions and among the musicians, exchanging glances. So nice!
Just beautiful and beautiful!!! Everyone is the great soloist. I meant all is world level of performer. I did not know that Schubert wrote this great master piece of Octet. I want to my big hand applause on everyone. BRAVO!!! Thank you for the great Music. God Bless on everyone.

Blood and whipped cream. :-) Wien is one of my favorite cities.

As the Austrians say, the situation is desperate, but not serious. Alfred Brendel (the greatest living Schubertian, imho) mentions that motto occasionally.
Delightful work by a quite young composer. I would bet this young Schubert lad is soon going to make a name for himself!
Just splendid playing ... such wonderful musicians playing a work of genius.

Bravo! I can hardly believe that this marvelous performance was done so well live.
Grande Schubert!!!!! E bravissimi gli interpreti.
It's interesting to hear the strong cello, as typically played by Sol Gabetta, reinforced by the double-bass playing an octave lower as played by Robert Vizvari. The result is very nice. In total by all these fine players, a great rendition of Schubert's beautiful piece.

This octet is one of the first music memories iI have. It was played in my home by a family orchestra,I was about 5 years old.

That’s a tatty old ‘cello☺️ probably a Guarneri! Beautifully played. I love this octet. Sabine Meyer. It doesn’t get much better.
(Almost) certain it is a Guadagnini cello.
You can count on Sol Gabetta giving a wonderful performance with her cello.
And yes, Sabine Meyer and Sol Gabetta always know what they're doing...
Very lovely and so well-rehearsed! My one disappointment might have been a problem with the way it was miked ; when it was all done I had the feeling that it had perhaps been more of a concerto for clarinet with an assortment of accompany instruments.
