    My sister is 4 and she heard like the first 20 seconds and started crying. I think this is so pretty and I want to learn the violin part :)

    It's wonderful how the cello repeats the first theme a shade softer than the outset, preparing for the utterly etherial high A of the violin. It's interesting that in this movement the beautiful change of color, F major, comes quite early but as the lowered 6th rather than than the 3rd as in the D major movements.
    What a skilled composer to unify thus the piece harmonically! Also noteworthy are the uncomplicated, transparent textures supporting the ease of the melodic spinning out.

    I like to imagine Borodin working in his laboratory humming to himself, and thinking "Hey, that's pretty good, I should write it down."

      I read somewhere that he wrote this while on holiday with his wife in Italy. I also believe that that was the excursion on which he met Liszt, who was mightily impressed with Borodin's second symphony. By the way, give Borodin's first quartet in A-major a listen; a fine work, more complex and symphonic in structure than this one.

    Playing this quartet for the spring concert. I always felt anxious playing in small groups and worried but this piece makes me feel at ease when I play it, especially towards the end. Resolute? I'm not sure what to call it but it feels really full and warm in the last five bars.

    En tiempos de pandemia donde transitamos con la esperanza de que saldremos mejores seres humanos , vuelvo a tu cuarteto, querido Borodin...jamás habrías imaginado que con un invento pequeño y extraño, con otro teclado que no es el de un piano, alguien te escucha, te escribe tantos años después ...en medio de un momento de ciencia ficción y vuelve a maravillarse viendo cómo expresaste algo tuyo tan bello, escribiendo cada nota con sensibilidad y maestría en una fascinante partitura. ❤También estás vivo.

      That is not the only error in this score, either. See bars 109 and 179. In 109, the note in the viola should be a dotted half note, with no subdivision slash. In 179, they shifted notes 2-4 down half a step (also in viola part).

    doesn't get much better than this! i love this recording and have struggled to buy it.i have heard really inferior versions of this..by the brodsky q4tet..etc..(sorry guys but some one had to say that).
    i actually do own this on reel to reel..recorded from my own vinyl but i must admit i ripped this one. TY.
    oo i heard a funny thing at 345 345...ooo thought he was sharp...hmmm the viola broke a sting, and someone ate the violins lunch..oo
    and then some school kids recorded this, and tried to say it was better....lucky they can only screw puter games up...
    the art goes WAY over those pretty little heads..
    nothing worse than a little underpitch viola...what will the russians do to us next?

    Histerical and aggressive the violins, I honestly don't know what the hell is wrong with the first violin of the Emerson SQ in this. All the scales sound like they are trying to kill someone more than mourning in love. Not a fan of the Emerson in general, but this is honestly terrible, just check the Borodin SQ for this and save your hearth for something of actual love
