And again, it's mesmerizing!!!

rather noisy audience

I listen this cuartet while I read Platón writing. I am sick, but music and philosophy Is cure for my soul .

The pride of Cincinnati!

All music is composed before it is heard, so the fact that Beethoven couldn't hear when he composed this was probably not a handicap.

Quartetto amato da Wagner...

Passionate, moving, and beautiful! I can’t help but think that if Beethoven himself heard your expression of his sublime music he would have been very pleased.

quelle intelligence de jeu ! magnifique interprétation. beaucoup de détails et de connivence. je n'ai jamais vu un quatuor aussi serré...le premier violon passant d'un bord à l'autre de la partition du second violon ... les gestuelles sont incroyables et très expressives. un immense merci

Between this piece and the string quartet in C sharp Minor I really can't decide which is my favorite Beethoven. I would love to see them perform this live. I wish people knew just how much work goes into playing these incredibly difficult pieces perfectly like this.

Omita apresentação

J'aime beaucoup ce quatuor, les musiciens sont excellents, bonne prestation, félicitations

Beautiful! Fun fact: Mahler lovingly gave a nod to Beethoven by borrowing the theme from the slow movement here (III Lento assai..., at about 11:00 into the video) for the sixth movement of his 3rd Symphony. Emphasis on the word 'lovingly'.

Simply sublime.

"“I have the A minor Quartet on the gramophone, and I find it quite inexhaustible to study. There is a sort of heavenly, or at least more than human gaiety, about some of his later things which one imagines might come to oneself as the fruit of reconciliation and relief after immense suffering; I should like to get something of that into verse before I die.” - T.S. Eliot

Absolutely magnificent.You bring me so much joy.

nice anytime

loving it daily

Bravo!

Allegretto- 0:12 Vivace- 7:12 Lento Assai- 11:08 Grave, ma non troppo- 19:53

absorbed in watching what must be one of the peaks of human endevour. these four are like those people seduced by a religious sect, except they are seduced by the soul of Beethoven

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

here I am as usual...

Wonderful.

This is his final one.

it is becoming my Sunday soiree

I've never been into chamber music. This performance changes everything!

Fantastic performance! Simply brilliant, so much emotion and passion!

Ariel siete meravigliosi tutti e quattro!!!

Excellent. I am envious of the talent on that stage.

I used to live in a remote farm, we bred lambs and when visitors came to stay, the big leg of lamb appeared on the table. Once the visitors started chewing and delighting in the meat, conversation flagged, and something akin to what happens in this string quartet took place: an insane digging into the substance of the meal. I can feel each phrase as if it were a cannibal banquet...

Beautiful music. How did you pick the name? It is my daughter's name and a biblical name. Thanks again

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In this and the Op. 95, Gershon Gerchikov plays first violin while Alexandra Kazovsky plays other first violin. But in the Op. 132, she plays first and he plays other first. Is there some kind of system at work? It seems to work either way.

I cant stop listening to this...

wonder...ful!! I notice she is the one now trying to poke him in the eye with her bow...

watching and listening, from so near the musicians, is what monarchs must have felt thru the ages

Musical orgasm... the dude on the left seems to be trying to poke the eye of his companion with the bow

i wish there were gopros to your bows

One of the most glorious pieces of music ever written! Beautifully played here...with sensitivity and warmth!!🎉

Thank u for entertaining me whilst I do my Sunday Aussie BBQ, this was truly beautiful.

Thank you for this.

I was collecting classical music in the 2000s, and knew then that I had not picked up Opus 95 but had the other 15. I never got around to hearing the f minor and I forgot about it. Now I am hearing it this week for the first time and am enjoying it. I will have to listen to several versions to get a feel for it. Thanks for this. A nicely paced performance. Must get back into my collection now that I am retired.

Maravilloso

Beethoven é indecifrável e introspectivo, leva-nos a esferas de enorme grandeza e profundidade. O absoluto está presente nessa obra e, como que chegamos a tocá-lo no coração.

Wow, great tits! 😁

So perfect it f....

Sublime. Amazed that one person can write this. Amazed that four people can play this. Amazed that four instruments can have this affect on me. Bravo.

This one is just as good as Ludwig's quartet in A minor they have on CZcams as well. This group kills it.

Astonishing!

Many many Thanks Ariel for this magical and nice interpretation. The Last Beethoven, the start of his majesty, music about music, music on the edge, touching the limits. Imposible to force the music more. Finally, here the music seems a picture. Colors all around the world. Freedom and Joy bless you Ariel.
