This concerto needs a forewarning: DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME

Happy Birthday, Don.

Wonderful!

Tellement incandescent... absolument génial...

Beethoven trios are cooL.

Glière's harmonisations are a new style and we are pleasantly surprised hearing this unknown chamber music and try to start on his duo's. Good experiences, we should hear more of him in our concerthalls!

Lovely. Thank you.

Good Primrose Piatigorsky

Agreed w Mr Chun, this is an amazing document. When I learned of the piece 20 years ago a recording was not to be found. Compared to the 1st Concerto this is a beast for the soloist. Don't be fooled by his tremendous performance, Primrose plays this amazingly well and makes it sound easier then it is. But definitely a worthy addition to the repertoire!

Third movement amazingly beautiful

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👏👏👏

The combination of the nostalgia and perfection is almost more than my soul can bear! Eternal!

Hello! Where can I find scores of this concerto?) Please, If you can could you send me to my mail address🙏 Abilseiit_Aruzhan@mail.ru

Fine playing, but does anyone else feel like, overall, it's a "whiny" piece?

Holy mackerel. A fascinating, gripping piece. A real rarity-I’ve heard a lot of music and have not even heard of this piece before. In the small company of the Busoni, Beethoven Fantasy and Flos Campi. No idea why this is not in every violist’s repertoire.

I remember Leslie Gerber stating that this was a rare release in one of his classical records for sale list years ago.

An excellent transcription of the old recording! Gliere is writing music in a conservative style, but you can tell he has something to say and is pushing his envelopes (especially in the last two movements) to say it. The result is a masterpiece.

3554 VIEWS .... and not one comment (apart mine) for this jewel ... poor world ....

Ohh .......; is these beautiful ... such interprets ... Heaven ... !

Merci de nous rendre cet ensemble légendaire.Le vibrato de Tsyganov est un délice.

Cent fois merci de nous rendre ce magnifique ensemble trop méconnu.Le vibrato de Tziganov est un délice.

I had the good fortune to study with Szymon Goldberg. It changed my playing - how I heard music, how I used my bow - really everything. thank you brian for posting this. Do you know the Faure piano quartet recordings - so gorgeous!

Thanks for the opportunity to hear this rare and beautiful piece

Utterly fascinating piece. Brilliant. Thank you for posting.

A very fine quartet, derserves a better sound recording.

Is there an opus number assigned to this concerto

This is a sunny, Haydnesque quartet by a composer of mature insight and creativity who chose a very traditional idiom and never departed from it. It doesn't approach the depth and importance of the like-numbered (or any) Shostakovich quartet, but still, this and the other three of Gliere's string quartets should receive modern recordings so that their full worth could be appreciated.

Does anyone know where to get the piano reduction of this? I won't be playing for an orchestra so I'd rather not drop the 100

Deserve manny more than just the 3 likes. Perhaps the rest onjoyed it sooo much, they forgot to press the thumbs up. Or they were death.

Thanks for uploading. From the 3 quartets of Gliere available on YT (nos. 1, 2 & 4) it is clear that he was a very composer of string quartets.

Merveilleuse version du quatuor de Schumann qui je viens de découvrir grâce à la tribune des critiques de disques de F Musique où il a été élu vainqueur à l'unanimité d'une écoute comparative à l'aveugle ... merci d'avoir mis cette merveille en ligne ... :)

Wonderful Quartet, beautifully played … Thank you very much, Brian Anderson for yet another rare treasure … Highly appreciate your work.

Thank you for uploading this! I love Gliere's music, and his larger chamber works are true, rare gems!

This is an absolutely fabulous piece for a unique combination (women's chorus and solo viola) which sadly never bacame part of the 20th century repertoire. Gof bless Lenny for giving us this performance, and you for putting it here.

1346 views ... and NOT ONE COMMENT about this legendary jewel ... !!! Heifetz , Primrose , Piatigorsky .... this is a heaven team .... you stupid elephants !! What is that for an insult .. ??? Who do you think you are , you fools !!??

Do you want to discuss Beethoven's work ... ? I don't ... just listen to these three fellows here .... this will stay unique ... forever .....

Wonderful work, Primrose's concerns notwithstanding. The time has certainly arrived where this work could make a positive impact on the concert stage.

Nikolai Graudan 1896 - 1964 ..-studied at the St. Petersburg Conservatory ...Through the special recommendation of Alexander Glazunoff he was elected a professor, one of the youngest in the his­tory of the conservatory. ... From 1926 to 1935 he was first cellist with the Berlin Philharmonic. After com­ing to the United States, he was for a time a cellist with the Metropolitan Opera Company. Subsequently he was first cellist with the Minneapolis Sym­phony ... With his wife, Joanna Graudan, pianist, he had formed a duo ... The Graudans were born in the Russian town of Libau

Milhaud was a violonist and as such the medium range sonority of the viola attracted him. To my knowledge, we wrote two concertos for viola and two sonatas for viola and piano. Recordings are available on TH-cam. The present recording by authoritative interprets allow to perceive Milhaud's genius in this repertoire. The technique of Milhaud allows to identify superposed melodical lines, including the line of the soloist which is not always predominant.

Thanks for uploading this! I've been wanting to hear it for a long time, and since I'm out of college I don't have access to the LP nor an LP player.

Thanx!

Thank you SO much for uploading this VALUABLE document! I have never heard this, even though I have heard many, many very rare recordings of viola performances. I would LOVE to know the source of this: was this ever issued on CD?

Sorry about the few short skips, when I received the LP it was almost a half step sharp, and I guess when I slowed it down using audacity the click removal didn't work like it was supposed to.

Thank you very much!
