One well-recognized music cipher comes from the 19th-century German composer Johannes Brahms. He included a cryptogram in his 1868 “String Sextet No. 2 in G major.” In the summer of 1858, a 25-year-old Brahms fell madly in love with Agathe von Siebold, a 23-year-old music director and vocal student of Brahms’s friend Julius Otto Grimm. They quickly set plans for marriage, but in January 1859, he broke off the engagement to focus on his music.
Von Siebold later married, and Brahms remained a bachelor until death, but he still longed for her. He incorporated the notes A-G-A-H-E in bars 162 to 168 in the first movement of his sextet. (B-natural in German nomenclature is the note H; the letter T is not included because it is not a musical note.)
According to BBC radio host Tom Service, the motif is played at the piece’s “greatest and most aching release,” likely signaling Brahms’s heartache. In a letter to his friend Josef Gänsbacher about the sextet, Brahms wrote, “by this work, I have freed myself of my last love.”
Alastair Carnegie really interesting story! Thank you for sharing !
A wonderful performance of one of my very favorite pieces of music.
Thank you so much for posting this sparkling performance of a piece I've loved for many years. Ah, Brahms...!
Congratulations. One of the very best recordings of this Masterpiece. It's one I come back to time and time again. Wonderfully videoed as well. A Pleasure to both see and hear.
Thank you very much!
We're glad that you like our rendition 😊
This piece was actually premiered in Boston Massachusetts. That gives you some idea of how international the music world has always been. This is a pretty good performance too. Best
Camera work is amazing (and the playing is, of course, so beautiful)
Thank you so much! Best Regards from Cologne! Cristian
Beautiful performance bravi and thank you for great music
Thank you! ❤
Wonderful. Thank you.
Magnificent. I used to listen to NDR3 when I was stationed in Germany, and the tradition of radio symphonies has flowered since then. Thanks for bringing so much great music to the world.
Simplemente maravilloso!
Absolutely wonderful performance rudely interrupted by crass adverts crashing in so insensitively at the worst possible moments. I they must have commercials, couldn't they at least reserve them for between the movements?
La leche, de verdad
Bravo, liebe Brahms-freunde!!! Eure aufnahme ist mit dem berumte Amadeus-aufnahme zum vergleichen. Fiele grusse fur Susanne, Klettemberg 2. etage...
Vielen Dank! Schöne Grüße aus Köln!

うーむ、なかなかの手練れであるなあ。
Some really lovely playing by the musicians. Some of Brahms most beautiful music. But why so much visual editing? Every five seconds another visual edit! Just one simple shot of the group would have been adequate. It's meant to be about the music, not some editor showing off with panning in and out, or highlighting this or that player. What is the point of all this? It's just way too distracting. It's like being at a concert and changing seats every 10 seconds. I couldn't bear to watch this mess.
I totally understand the distraction, but for me as a violinist and student - and for other musicians - videos like this let us examine the technique of the performers (hand positions, bowing styles, etc.) It gives us an opportunity to learn a little from professionals! Keep loving music!🎵🎻
@@brendanmcevoy6656 Perhaps you are right and these performances are not meant for those who are interested more in the music than the performance. I should just stick to listening to the recordings I have and follow a score rather than trying to follow some crazy editor's idea of what a performance means. I enjoy seeing the interplay between parts but I can probably get this more easily from the score. Still love the Brahms nonetheless.
Yes, and you know someone went to "school" for this pretentious crap. The "double-shots" (or whatever they're called) are laugh out loud horrendous.
@@mbmb6743 Glad to hear that I am not alone. I find it frustrating to be treated like some MTV junkie when I'm trying to pay attention to the music. I agree that some editors just can't resist the urge to show off all the fancy techniques they have learned. They need to think about context of what they are shooting and the real goal of what they are trying to present. I could live with just one shot of all six players for the duration. What does the viewer actually gain from a machine gun approach? It really makes the music more difficult to follow.
