Elgar twice as technical as Haydn 1, Dvorak same as Prokofiev, do you play the cello?

The coda from 1st movement of Beethoven's Op 74 is missing. That is a real Holy *&^) moment.

Very good list, especially like that they're ordered in a way that is nice to listen to!

Nice touch on Dvorak concerto adding the ever forgotten adendum of "No. 2" lol. Important cello lore

Saint-Saens first concerto is one of the most played in the repertoire, definitely not a 3 in popularity. His second concerto maybe

Unfortunately, not a single one stands up to the top 10 violin concertos

This is very enjoyable but the snobbish commentary is disappointing.

The greatest chamber 'moment' for me is in the Mendelssohn Octet, towards the end of the 1st mvt ... different genre, of course.

Dvorak's Concerto is the most famous? Sad

I have a soft spot for Honneger's Cello Concerto, but i can live with a list like this. Haven't heard Prokofiev and Barber. The rest, certainly!

Just to clarify: The Prokofiev Sinfonia Concertante excerpt, that's shown in the first clip, is the Cadenza from the second movement, not first movement unfortunately. These little mistakes happen! It is my favourite piece and I am learning the first movement so I'm pretty quick at spotting these things, especially because it's so underrated. So when it does appear in media, I get super excited! Great vid btw!

Maybe Britten 1st suite last movement, Barber cello concerto or shostakovich 2. concerto?

Maybe you should actually explain *why* they're hard for non-cellists or indeed even cellists who don't know the works...ffs.

My unpopular suggestions are some of Bottermund/Paganini variations and Cossman/Schubert Erlkönig

Sorry if I missed any obvious ones! I tried my best with online research. Please leave your suggestions in the comment section!

This list must entirely focus only on Beethoven's works. All the rest are not relevant by comparison.

3:00 Mendelssohn is too frinkin hard to be the first concerto that students play 💀.

Fantastic choices.

There's an easy way to figure out the bonus, but it's cheating. Can anyone guess the method?

Hoje come there is no bartok?!?!!?

The new edition of Budapest string quartet.

This video and the accompanying comments are valuable to me. There is so much great music out there. I appreciate some guidance.

The bonus was Dvorak.

Odd selection.

Cuando faltaba el número uno y faltaba por mencionar a Dvorak era mas qué obvio 😅

Good list! All these commenters presenting their favorites, demanding explanations, etc. are entirely missing the point. Make your own videos. Good grief.

It's all subjective but my top 10 would be: 1. Haydn Fantasia 2. Mozart Prussian No 22 slow movement 3. Beethoven Finale of 3rd Opus 59 4. Schubert Death & The Maiden 5. Mendelssohn Canzonetta 6. Smetana Any Part of his first quartet 7. Borodin slow movement 8. Tchaikovsky slow movement 9. Dvorak American final movement 10. Shostakovich No 8

You put 10 in Edgar's concert popularity, but his and barber's are the ones I've never heard...

Delius is marvellous too.

I loved it❤ can you make one video with female representations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

The people in the comment section are a bit wild tbh. Just calm down❤

I believe that Beethoven's Triple Concerto deserves at least an honorable mention (I know it doesn't really fit in within the criteria, but the solo cello line is known for its particularly virtuosity).

I think some people are missing the point of this list. This doesn’t claim to be a list of the greatest string quartets ever. It’s not even supposed to represent the greatest movement, only a great moment within a string quartet. I think some of the examples are quite good. Sure, the grosse fuge is amazing, but there is no moment within it that can rival the example of the opus 132 in the video. The Barber quartet, as wonderful as it is, probably doesn’t belong in a top ten list of greatest string quartets. The moment used in the video is pretty damn good though and arguably could qualify for a lot of people if you are just referencing a moment within a quartet. It’s all subjective. No list like this one will make everyone agree.

Where is Mozart? At the very least the Dissonanz…. You put Barber before Schubert?

Nomos alpha!

Any list that includes Shostakovich is total nonsense.

dumbest list coming from a cellist lol, what a joke. elgar popularity being 10 where dvorak is 8 LOL give me a break

A better Dover/Barber: th-cam.com/video/XmnstnZnSDw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=44TQbyDANmTp0D7l

I think Elgar cello conserto is obviously more famous than Dvorak( even tho Dvorak is goated)

En mi opinión falta la la coda (o todo el movimiento completo) del 7mo movimiento del op. 131 de Beethoven.

no brahms，what a disaster～～

Any list of 'greatest string quartet moments' that ignores the Grosse Fuge is automatically invalid.

nice list. I only miss one concerto from Bccherini. Probably No. 9 in b flat. Boccherini is probably easy to oversee because his concerts aren't that "shining". Also there are a lot of them cause he was a Cellist. But nevertheless, he has probablably the biggest lifetime contribution to the cellist artwork.

Schumann’s should be no 1 End of the story

I would be willing to dedicate myself to playing the Shostakovich cello concerto. It's thrilling.

Hmm. No Haydn - the Father of the String Quartet? No Mozart? Mendelssohn over Schubert? I am not arguing some great moments have been picked - but almost nobody plays Barber's String Quartet anymore (only the arrangement of the Adagio for String Orchestra), and the Grieg String Quartet, whilst excellent, isn't a patch on any of Dvorak's last 5 String Quartets; plus Smetena's Ma Vlast? What a heart-wrenching moment where his deafness kicks in - surely one of the greatest moments ever in music let alone String Quartet? Please understand - I didn't expect my favourite moments to be picked. That would be dull!! So I am not complaining (bizarrely) - just thought you might explain your logic and reasoning within the video - after all, all our tastes and experiences are different. Then you might win me over! ;-)

cello vs double bass next?
