Thank you, Sir András. Always you teach us (or me, at least) something we do not know or have never before understood. If we did not have you speaking and making music online (yes, you have told us you are uncomfortable “online”), we would be lacking more than you could ever imagine. The Internet is a blessing for many of us when it comes to classical music; it is “making movies about music”, something that I heard you lament as missing from modern life. With “online” wisely used, we are - musically speaking - wealthy people, and very grateful for what you (and some others) give us in the way of musical education. Since 1988, when I first heard you play in Australia (2 Bach concerti), you have taught me more than I learnt in many years of musical education in my country of origin (not Australia). We wish you could be happy and filled with wonder at the riches you give us. And understand how good you are at doing it. Next month I will be 79 years old, and I am still learning from you. Thank you.
Oh, how I love, love, love this exposition and discussion of this fabulous masterpiece. Slightly more, I adore Schiff’s playing. He so connects with this music.
It is always a pleasure getting to watch Sir Andreas thoughts on classical music. He always describes the historical background and proceds to link some kinds of philosophy to the Song
A concise and illuminating description of this early, fiery work of Brahms. I love his description of the significance of the horn in North Germany. The magic of the German forest (as conveyed in German folk tales) that is captured by the horn! And how well he plays the passionate final movement!
Great to watch -- do you feel this beautiful atmosphere András creates? And l love this first Brahms concert since I heard it first a long time ago. Continue speaking and playing... András Schiff ! Thank you.
Thankyou for this! I've managed to see Andras Schiff play Brahms P1 twice! A fantastic experience to hear him play (in Berlin, Stockholm, Copenhagen), and I love his way of playing both Brahms and Beethoven.
This magnificent concerto was used to great effect as the soundtrack to the film, “ The L-Shaped Room”. It is where I first heard it. Film often serves to introduce us to great music.
Andras Schiff's full time job from now on should be recording one of these for every major piano concerto written for the benefit of mankind. Longer versions though.
I wish Sir Andras had talked about why he chose to record the Brahms concertos on period instruments. Even in 2021 it is by no means a matter of course to perform / record using original instruments, so it would be interesting to hear Sir Andras speak about sonority, projection, sustain etc. which are so very different from a modern grand.
Listening to Andras Schiff speak about music is just as pleasurable as listening to him play music.

That piano is gorgeous.
I just played through this concerto yesterday! And now I have the opportunity to hear Andras Schiff talk about it, how nice!
Thank you so much, Sir András! It is such a great pleasure to hear you speaking about music and to hear you playing! You can never tell us enough!

Thank you, Sir Andras for you wonderful insights into the marvelous D minor concerto of Brahms.

I just ordered this CD last week. Now I'm waiting for my Schiff to come in.
LOL!!!
Wonderful presentation! Thank you Mr. Schiff.
Been the concerto that speaks directly to my soul since my first listen, in 1972
When someone ask me which piano concerto I prefer, my answer flow automatically: Brahms first piano concerto! Bravo maestro Andras Schiff!
What a beautiful piano!! Mr. Schiff is always such an elegant musician and speaker.
This magnificent concerto was used to great effect as the soundtrack to the film, “ The L-Shaped Room”.
It is where I first heard it.
Film often serves to introduce us to great music.
Lousy music, too. See Max Steiner.
...gracias maestro Schiff, por este interesante comentario sobre este monumental concierto del genial J.Brahms
Merci maître pour vos merveilleuses informations! Votre intelligence et votre humour nous plaisent infiniment.
Thank You very much!! Very interesting!!!
Wonderful..enchanting
My favorite piano concerto
I could listen to stories and analyses like this one for hours!
Andras Schiff's full time job from now on should be recording one of these for every major piano concerto written for the benefit of mankind. Longer versions though.
The idea of Benedictus is brilliant beyond what I imagined was behind the incredible lines of the 2nd movement
Joachim said Brahms was "clear as diamond, soft as snow"
Fantastic. Do you know the source?
@@jeffg5179 you can find it in Florence May's Life of Brahms I think, it's on Gutenberg
Wonderful! I can't believe I never noticed the similarity between the Beethoven and Brahms' final movement...until now!
Esta charla enriquece la experiencia de escuchar esta obra tan famosa pero no por ello conocida a profundidad, desde el intelecto y desde le corazón.
I thought in 2nd movement Brahms was thinking more about Clara than Robert.
Heself wrote that to her.
Nagyon szépen köszönöm hogy beszélsz Brahmsról. Olyan érdekes . Viszlát, angolnõtól (az jó magyarúl? Érted?)

@ECM
What became of Maestro Keith Jarrett?? Where is he?? How is he?? Will ECM lauch more of his classical recordings??
Thanks a lot.

The first entry of the piano is like a Schubert song. Which one?
A great artist never satisfied with his works🙏
Actually, Schumann didn't have "manic depression." He had syphilis in his brain.
BTW, the second movement sounds like Songs for Early Morning.
I heard Brahms had destroyed about 20 string quartets and all the music Schumann heard and praised high
How sad. 😞 Too bad Claire couldn’t convince him how much we appreciate his works.
@@JoePalau : Am confused. Do you mean Clara Schumann? :)
no he means claire de lune, debussy's wife
@@Populous3Tutorials Haha!
So much more Beethovinian than Schumanesque.
i prefer Gilels Jochums
