In my opinion, the recording of the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2 by Gilels and Jochum is the gold standard. The poignancy and heartbreaking beauty of the Andante makes me weep uncontrollably every time I hear it.
Possibly the most beautiful cello melody ever written. A spectacular movement from an incredible performance of one of the best piano concertos ever written.
NOT TRUE! The Best Brahms concerto no 2 players Are really Sviatoslav Richter with The Paris Orchestra conductor Lorin Maazel recording from 1969-1970!. Richter The Genius! Grigory Sokolov With The Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra video TH-cam from 1987! Sokolov The Best piano sound Ever! Sokolov The most vital rhythmic!(. unbeatable vitalness) Sokolov The most Titanic Ever!!! Sokolov a class of his own playing Brahms piano concerto no 2! Sokolov his Chopin piano concerto no 2! Brahms piano concerto no Mozart piano concerto no 24! Saint-Saens piano concerto no 2! After Sokolov played These concertos then All The others pianists Are only DUST ZEROS!!!! Sokolov versus Horowitz 100-0!!! Sokolov versus Marc Andre Hamelin 100-0!!! Sokolov versus ABM 5000-0!!! ABM THE CYBORG HUMAN MACHINE!.Only.Artur.Rubinstein( The God).and Emil Gilels ( The King).can give Sokolov some work to do!!
El Andante, en un rasgo de genio, presenta el delicado primer tema en un solo del violonchelo que anuncia un Lied escrito más tarde (Immer leiser wird mein Schlummer, Op. 105, núm. 2). El solista hace su aparición entonces con unos arpegios a partir de los cuales aborda una melodía nueva, en el espíritu de un nocturno. Sin embargo, esa tranquilidad acabará desvaneciéndose en un episodio crispado y lleno de violencia, tras el cual retorna la calma y se establece un clima de serenidad estática, contemplativa, en el que el mismísimo tiempo parece detenerse. Al final de este episodio regresa el violonchelo con su melodía del inicio, ornamentada en este punto por el piano. Este instrumento también recordará su entrada, acompañado en este caso por el violonchelo, de forma que parece que estemos asistiendo a un doble concierto.
Estupendo, antenoche un pianista destrozó este mismo concierto en la sala Neza de México. No entiendo cómo se atreven a tocar algo así sin dominarlo...
One of the most beautiful slow movements ever written.
John Mueter ㅡ
.
Possibly the most - it's sort of his Beethoven 9 adagio
It's those Tutti sections - more intense than your usual Tutti!
i guess I am pretty off topic but do anyone know of a good website to stream new movies online?

Great composing, conducting and performing by the cellist as well.
Thank you for posting.
I received the 4th movement today from the uploader. It is indeed on youtube. Thanks very much!
This is so amazingly lovely!
very beautiful performance and great cellist :-)
That moment near 3:55 when it's like drowning into sadness....
I found it. It was difficult, but I found it. Thank you again.
Der Cellist hat es wunderbar gespielt!

Really an historic recording I should say. Too bad the last movement is missing.
