The idea of 7/4 time signature + the range of texture in the finale creates probably the most intense impression of the whole chamber repertoire. Sounds like a whole orchestra. Extatic.
Ravel, just the best ochestrator that ever lived on this earth, pure genius, i just can't describe how genius and deep this third mov. is, truly magical.
@@Dylonely_9274 Orchestration can also more broadly refer to good use of instruments and control of the colors each instrument brings. Ravel really pushes this ensemble to the limits of what can be achieved and I think the piece shows a very strong understanding of how to write for these instruments.
@@Dylonely_9274 there's a far good use of texture and knowledge about the trio instruments mechanism and how they suit together, this is literally orchestration.

I listened to this part from another recording (with better sound quality) and they played the buildup and the climax quite a bit faster. This made me realise that this is why people like metal music; it was exhilarating!
Just unbelievable music...never get tired of listening to it. So many favourite parts, e.g. how the start of the fourth movement emerges from the night of the third like a fresh spring morning
My newest classical-music earworm, especially the second and final movements 😍😍 (parts of the final movement even sound like precursors to Ravel's Piano Concerto for the Left Hand)
Limpia y magistral interpretación de este trío de Ravel, significativo y conmovedor, tanto por lo que expresa como por lo que calla. Escrito en 1914, iniciada la Gran Guerra, el autor lo concibe como faena póstuma, sabiéndose voluntario a los 39 años para ese estrago que acabaría con buena parte de la juventud europea. ¡Cosas de la vida!, necesitaría ese empuje para acabar la obra que tantos años le costara. Ravel reservaría sentimientos contrapuestos a esta pieza ajustada con premura y precisión cuando ya sonaban los cañones en la Marne. Deudor de sus maestros, no por eso deja de mostrarse inventivo. Gracias a esa reminiscencias de un canto vasco que obsesivo se apropia de ritmo y melodía, la primera parte es sin duda alguna memorable. Bajo la forma de un Scherzo chispeante, Ravel intercala la estructura de un poema malasio -el segundo y cuarto verso de cada cuarteto relanzan el primero y tercero del siguiente a modo de un tejido- como lo hicieran Hugo y Baudelaire. ¡Ruptura exótica y liberadora! No hay mejor modo de volver que alejarse. La tierra natal pervive entonces y no cesa de resurgir cambiante y renovada. En la voluntad de enraizarse en su otra vertiente tan francesa, Ravel engarza un pasacalle al modo de una ronda sobre la que incansable voltea hasta la desmesura. «D’une grande tension dramatique, la Passacaille […] exposé à la main gauche du piano, est un long ruban mystérieux de huit mesures que reprennent le violoncelle et le violon. Fidèle à Louis et à François Couperin, qui construisaient leurs passacailles et leurs chaconnes en rondeau plutôt que sur une basse rigoureusement obstinée, Ravel crée une riche ambiance harmonique sur laquelle évolue un lent et poignant crescendo qui s’évanouit peu à peu pour céder la place au dépouillement du thème initial»[1]. Culmina el trio con el arrebato final. Ebrio ya de ritmo y exaltación, alcanza una simbiosis excepcional de los tres instrumentos. Como sostiene Irène Brisson: « Le Finale, d’une grande virtuosité, se ressent de l’écriture orchestrale de Ravel. C’est une sorte de bacchanale qui ramène le rythme à cinq temps (3+2) de la danse basque et qui se nourrit des accords du premier mouvement, de la vivacité du Pantoum et des harmonies de la Passacaille. […] Rarement est-on parvenu à une telle symbiose entre les trois instruments, ce qui en fait un des plus beaux trios du XXe siècle »[2].

I've collated and heard hundreds of piano trios many of which I marvel at for many different reasons: it is a joy to discover new works new, performances in this genre. No matter how far I roam, I always return to the common ground: Brahms Piano Trio No 1 in B, Shostakovich Piano Trio No 2 and then, finally ..... this work, this performance, as if it is the very center, somehow.
Magnificent performance by Menuhin, Cassadó and Kentner. The sound quality is a little thin, but that lends to the charm of the recording, giving it a nostalgic quality.
Nunca escuché una música que "describa" tan bien el dolor y la devastación que genera una guerra. Al Passacalle lo considero una radiografía perfecta de la sensación que uno debe sentir al padecer y vivir tal catástrofe. Mercy Ravel. Tu música es y será eterna.
I listened to this being performed in the heart of Warsaw by students from the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music on August 3 and instantly fell in love with it. I'm not usually one for atonal music but this is intense and emotional on another level!
This work is very "classical" and not at all atonal. The tonality is very respected here. I understand what you are saying because the Ravel's style may be hard to appreciate, but with more listening, everybody like it :)
Coming back to this later, I am now a big fan of Ravel and I've come to understand just how tonal this is compared to some of his other work and compared to other composers. At the time I listened to very Romantic, very tonal pieces and this was my first taste of music that strayed ever so slightly from the "safer" likes of Chopin and Beethoven. I have come to appreciate this and other works that involve less tonal things like whole tone and pieces without keys.
OpalFur Thank you, calling this atonal is an insult. I love the music by Ravel and Debussy, because they have their music rooted in tonality while still being very rich and full of beauty. I'm not even that into Beethoven or Chopin, but even more I hate atonal music. It might seem that this type of music is close to atonality, but I'd say that the strength of Ravel, Debussy and many other late/-late) romantic composers is that their music is rooted in tonality, into the beauty of 7th and 11th chords, and new scales such as pentatonic scales and modes.
This is a typical basque rythme and a dance named "Zortziko" but we right in 5/8 and not in 8/8. Perhaps righting in 8/8 it's better to understand the rhythm ?
Jean-Marie GUEZALA Ravel's mother was basque as well, and the first movement is based off the zortziko rhythm but he added 3 extra beats to turn 5/8 to 8/8
I can't stop listening to the third movement. It sounds like a sleepy village in the American deep south with a dark secret. Maybe if I listen to it enough times I can figure out what the secret is.
Some recordings might be public domain. I don't know about this particular one, but some artists allow their recordings to be used by the public. You just have to look around a bit
The Ravel estate is particularly tangled up. It may be that copyright has finally expired by now, but my guess is that his housekeeper's family is still holding some strings
@Palindromeda 33 The Joachim Trio one is a much better performance in my opinion, and the audio quality itself is objectively far superior. I'm mostly on this video so that I can see the sheet music as I listen without having to get out other devices or software.
@@ryanhar882 Wikipedia. Actually, Ravel was pretty proud of it. Spain was seen at the time as somewhere exotic to be. He uses Spanish motives like the repetition of notes to simulate a guitar. You hear it for example in Alborada del gracioso from his Mirroirs suite. That's the 4th movement. And in his famous Scarbo from his other suite Gaspard de la nuit. He didn't speak Spanish thought, but his mother liked to sing to him classical Spanish songs. Spanish Lieder if you want to use the term. By the way, you should realize that Alborada del gracioso is in Spanish for that exact reason
@@ryanhar882 No No, I'm wrong sorry. He was born in a Basque territory 11 miles from Spain. But her mother was Basque with Spanish heritage. I can believe I was so wrong. Sorry!
@@ryanhar882 Apparently her mother was Basque but grew up in Madrid. The Basque are in between the French and Spanish border. Some part touches Spain and the other France. Her mother came from that region but was raised as someone from Spain. But it says that he had Spanish heritage so I'm not even sure anymore. Don't listen to what I'm saying. I've probably mixed in few things here. I'll have to do more research. Sorry for the confusion.
This trio has all one needs: Magic,elegance, rhythm, fleetness , majesty, delicacy,taste,craft. Something to aspire to. Grand merci M.Ravel!
One of the best trios in my opinion.
Sooooooo underrated
The best one in ky opinion
As young music student I was taught that this one of the best trios by my teacher who performed it many times.
Sounds like a cold evening. Good music for winter.

7:00 just completely melts me every time! Who else would think to harmonize a pentatonic melody like that. Thank you Ravel!!
Ravel is my favorite composer, his melodic sense is quite genius.
It is a shame he didn't publish many works.
If diamonds were given away they wouldn't have any value
Ravel was a great composer *because* he published few works. He was perfectionist and spent a lot of time on each single work for our pleasure.

That finale is one of the coolest things ever done with 3 instruments
4:50 absolutely magnificent
he's just so good at using black keys
@milgaru Yes, they say he didn't have a racist bone in his body.
9:16 - 9:50 is such a unique sound on the cello.
This absolutely beautiful piece made me cry when I listened to it for the first time.
