"The Piano Quintet in F minor, op. 34 is remarkable for the way in which small motivic and harmonic details presented at the very opening come to play a larger role in the piece as a whole. ... The finale of Brahms's Third Symphony is built, much like the opening of the quintet, from a theme presented in F minor in unison and octaves. ... In an important sense, the relationship between the chamber music of the early 1860s and the symphonies of the late 1870s in Brahms is not only compositionally very close but also chronologically closer than it may at first appear."

I've been singing the first movement during my eight hours of work, I got home and listened like five times already. The first time I've heard this piece, more than a decade ago it was the two piano version with the beautiful Martha Argerich, it was my introduction to Brahms, who was going to become one of my favorite composers ever
23:37 24:00 (24:03 PAM PAM PAM PAAAAAAAM PAM PAM PAM PAAAAAAAM) 25:16 holy shi- the chord progression with that particular rhythm is so wonderful... very unique
Brahms is not Schubert not Schumann not anyone he is unique. If you do not enter into his way of thought he may very boredom and difficult to grasp yet he is a genius of rhythm of colour of harmony of expression and of complexity. We refuse him but he enters deep into our soul. A giant.
What a great idea to display the mss while the music plays. At first I kept thinking I had to turn the page, and only gradually realised it was being done perfectly for me. Thank you so much for uploading this. Eschenbach sublime as usual.
Sehr schöne 40 min mit der Musik richtig gute Oper so muss es sein super traumhaft schöne Operrette einfach nur super danke dafür dass ich die wunderschöne Opernmusik hören darf ich liebe die Operrette
I think this exquisite piece is my all-time favorite. I always listen to it when I am under the weather and it lifts my spirits tremendously! This particular rendition of the quintet is unbelievably beautiful!
what a great masterpiece by a supergreat composer! I think some parts of it are suitable for singing, if one has the right words for it and the right voice. The lyricism is exquisite.
Humam Ghassib yes, Humam, most of Brahms melodies are song-like, it is just like Schubert, very melodious. That is why people has been obssessed by Johannes Brahms, he sings human songs heroically and tenderly.
El mismo tema consiste en una serie de variantes de su compás inicial. En disminución, el tema (0:06) se convierte en una figura pianística frente a los acordes de las cuerdas (compás 5, 0:19); una transformación del primer compás del tema eclosiona en una nueva melodía lírica (compás 23, 00:57); después, una variante más lejana del segundo compás es sujeto de una imitación estrecha en los dos violines (compás 63, 2:25). Las últimas tres ideas tienen poco en común, aunque todas derivan de un antecesor común.
I admire the passion of this performance. Some renditions of the Scherzo (often by older musicians or older recordings) take the Trio too slow, but I like it like this - a Grand March !
Taking the Trio slower makes no sense, if you look at the score. Brahms does not mark any different tempo for it so staying in the same tempo should be self-evident.
Whilst this composition speaks of a fairly free spirit it also presages the Brahms of the future-a gorgeous if somewhat puzzling work. I loved it. Thanks for the recording.
Обожаю этот квинтет!! Сегодня вечером собираюсь на концерт в Москрвскую Консерваторию, где будет заучить этот квинтет и первый концерт для фортепиано Чайковским. Очень жду!!!!!!!! Спасибо ещё раз за то, что выложили с нотами!
It's nice to find a piece of music I've been unable to find since I was at least 6. Especially the motiff at the beginning and end of the 1st movement.
prodigieux quintette musique sublime ,, je ne connais rien de supérieur à la musique de chambre de brahms ,, mon compositeur , préféré celui que j'emporterai sur une île déserte ,,sans hésiter ,, un grand merci au fameux quatuor amadeus et à christoph eschenbach
Dear Olla, thank you for your careful notes and insightful introduction to the works (prior to this I listened to Dvorak's "second" A major piano quintett, same excellent work by you. No wonder this care is rare, it requires time and insight...
Everything is thematically developed so well, the ideas expand to their limit crafted so meticulously that one would say the true heir to Beethoven and not only in a structural manner, true passion is displayed in the writing and the playfull emotes drip into each other seamlessly. One can only stand in awe. This is music where every note matters. This is music where the violin bow can take an eye out. Where do they teach this stuff?
The experience of searching and listening to the music history song requirements of the exam and enjoying the music is suddenly pushed for countless times of ad, which gives people a bad experience😊
Amazing quintet, sitting alongside the Schubert (Trout), Schumann and Dvorak. Later amazing piano quintets among others - Franck and J. Mahleb (not to be confused with G. Mahler) which I've only recently discovered here.
Theres a little motif in the finale which Brahms uses again as the scherzo for his first string quartet. I'm mostly posting that here in case anyone else notices but can't find what it was!
Zur Aussage von Daniel Barenboim - bekanntlich mein Lieblingsdirigent unter den lebenden Dirigenten und auch als Pianist über die Maßen brilliant - aus der Reportage über Beethoven, die ich nach 15 Minuten aus bekannten wie schlimmen Gründen abrechen musste, dass man bei Brahms merke, dass er kein PIanist war... ...also man muss schon wirklich genial sein, um das so überhaupt sehen zu können. Ich studierte einige Partituren von Brahms, aber der Gedanke als solcher, obwohl mir das Faktum natürlich bekannt war, kam mir nie in den Sinn... ...ich darf aber sagen, dass man Nikolaus Harnoncourt sehr wohl anmerkt, kein Pianist zu sein... ....basinga... Le p'tit Daniel
Also, as a side note, you'd never believe that this wasn't always written for piano quintet. Brahms' orchestration, at least in the first movement, is impeccable.
That's true. Brahms was a big fan of Schuberts music. I actually have to write a comparisson between their pieces for my music class because Brahms was often inspired by Schubert.
Actually, Landgravine Anna of Hesse-Kassel (born Princess Anna of Prussia) died in 1918, more than 50 years after this piece was composed. Were you thinking of a different person?

This is one of the greatest Brahms recordings of all time. It has been my go-to throughout my life. Sheer joy, passion and excitement.

The first time I've heard this piece, more than a decade ago it was the two piano version with the beautiful Martha Argerich, it was my introduction to Brahms, who was going to become one of my favorite composers ever
Same here 🎶😄
i would check Schumann´s for another great example
and also check Dvorak's quintett!
My introduction to Brahms was one and two piano concertos. So majestic and painfully exquisitely beautiful
@@hanshartmann8205 Dvorak's quintet was under Brahms' direct influence. He was a Brahms student for a while.
23:37
24:00 (24:03 PAM PAM PAM PAAAAAAAM PAM PAM PAM PAAAAAAAM)
25:16 holy shi- the chord progression with that particular rhythm is so wonderful... very unique
The fate motif probably
The moment from 25:10 to 26:38 blew me away... It's really well written
The intensity that cannot be compared even with his symphonies, Brahms chamber works were crafted into perfection
Brahms is not Schubert not Schumann not anyone he is unique. If you do not enter into his way of thought he may very boredom and difficult to grasp yet he is a genius of rhythm of colour of harmony of expression and of complexity. We refuse him but he enters deep into our soul. A giant.
You are right. I thought I would refuse him too but couldn't withstand him in the long run. I am his now. 😊
you have a way with the words sir.
I love how this quartet has attacked the scherzo and allegro.
there is so much ferocity at 30:27
What a great idea to display the mss while the music plays. At first I kept thinking I had to turn the page, and only gradually realised it was being done perfectly for me. Thank you so much for uploading this. Eschenbach sublime as usual.

try Schumann's piano quintet for an even greater lift!
@@bernardokane5453 Those two quintets are often paired on the same CD. The two greatest piano quintets of all.
@@KeithOtisEdwardsОгромное спасибо за шедевр! Щиро дякую за геніальну музику і геніальне виконання! Очень хотелось бы узнать исполнителей.
@@olenadenysenko9105 Christoph Eschenbach (piano), Amadeus Quartet
For me, it's the scherzo that overwhelms. What stunning vigorous music! And a real ear worm...
Yes, that music is like radiation coming from your speakers.
This morning I played Mahler 6 under Eschenbach's baton, and then this evening I performed the first movement of this piece!!!
cool story
@@Tawanyh thank you!! That's so kind of you! They were both really memorable performances for me :)
Lol I read this comment while listening to Mahler 6
Congratulations😀😀😀
Bravo! One of the masterpieces of chamber music.
The first movement is a masterwork all on its own. Love it!
0:33 Jeez Brahms is so beautiful and intense. I love it
My favorite Brahms piece, and this is an excellent performance. Thank you.
what a great masterpiece by a supergreat composer! I think some parts of it are suitable for singing, if one has the right words for it and the right voice. The lyricism is exquisite.

The ending is pretty intense
Michael A. I know I was just about to say this. Such an amazing ending to a piano quintet! :D
I play the ending on repeat, I could never get tired of it lol
There is nothing as exciting and beautiful as the Scherzo! ♥
Yes, there is--the Andante whose delicacy and tension (eros and pathos both) breaks my heart.

I absolutely agree that Tchaikovsky is overrated.
Their scherzo is so powerful! Absolutely loved it!
Thanks for uploading this!!
Thank you so much. Brahms forever!
year of recording : 1968, its been 53 years and still amazing. so glad that I can listen to this piece
What makes mankind as mankind, noble as heaven.
Thanks for the score.
gives me the chills
8:12 is just beautiful

Grandiose avec magnifique interprétation
The trio in the 3th movement is my favourite part of the piece
The ENTIRE THIRD for me! ♥
Wow that’s querky
Christoph Eschenbach and the Amadeus Queartett just nail it!
Masterpiece by great master of music!
The third movement so amazing

kinda wish Schönberg had orchestrated this one.

I am not a musician and your careful notes are very helpful for me and avidly read
Love how they end it especially ❤❤❤
One of brahms best pieces. To be honest, I am not a fan of brahms, but he nailed it on this one! Lovely stuff. Powerful too---
I feel like I've injected some extraordinary drug which has no bad side effects
No adverse-reactions perhaps....but highly addictive.....
Welcome to Brahms
@@ob4161 -- You might have warned me BEFORE that Richter recording of his Second!
SHAME ON YOU
Side effects seem to be trite metaphors
Played by the Windsor Quartet with Gabriel Chodas 1983 on WGBH, mind blowing!
One of the greatest piece in all classical music, wonderful!
30:51 - very Shostakovichesque
Marvelous!

Was redest du denn da? Brahms kein Pianist?
22:08 the lick haha
Do you have any idea whether the versions for only strings and for piano duet still survive? I'd be interested to hear them
Also, as a side note, you'd never believe that this wasn't always written for piano quintet. Brahms' orchestration, at least in the first movement, is impeccable.
The Piano duet did definitely survive, it was published in 1872. I don't know about the string version.
The piano duet did survive, the other versions didn't. Master work!
The Piano duet is Op.34b
klop422 I heard one for piano duet this summer! Yes, they still do exist
I'm not sure if it's just me but some parts sound quite inspired by Schubert lol
I agree.
Yes very much
Yes, it does have a strong flavor of Schubert.
That's true. Brahms was a big fan of Schuberts music. I actually have to write a comparisson between their pieces for my music class because Brahms was often inspired by Schubert.
交響曲よりも前に、これを聴いていればブラームスを大好きな作曲家だと位置付けた
最初に聴いた曲が不幸だった
Je suis d'accord avec Franco Bonani concernant la musique de Brahms
Aw, sad how the princess it was dedicated to died a year later...
Actually, Landgravine Anna of Hesse-Kassel (born Princess Anna of Prussia) died in 1918, more than 50 years after this piece was composed. Were you thinking of a different person?
Hello. I've just listened to Fleisher's version with Julliard. it's on both Deezer and Spotify. I think it's worth a shot 😛
It sounds really similar in some parts at the violin concierto from tchaicovsky
Funny you should mention him--they were both born on the same day - 7 years apart---and they detested each others' works. REALLY detested!!

Beethoven would have loved this piece. Schubert too😃
Is it just me or does the beginning melody of the Scherzo sound a lot like the second movement of Brahm's piano concerto in Bb major?
