    Schubert was lying on his deathbed and the music he requested was that of Beethoven's String Quartet, Number 14, Opus 131, in C sharp minor. All throughout his life, he was an avid admirer of Beethoven.

      I read that when he was delirous with typhus fever, he said, "No, this is not heaven, Beethoven is not here."

      Je trouve que c'est bien l'esprit de Beethoven. Splendide interprétation. Magnifique car toujours cantabile et avec le côté surprises inattendus chèresà B. comme- les accents, les variations dans le touche des cordes.Osmose parfaite entre les 4 interprètes.

    The players in a quartet that play any of the the late quartets MUST understand Beethoven's intentions, especially in the last movement of this piece, and this group does. I would think that you have had some pain and to have lived at least a certain amount of distress in your life. Perhaps I am to romantic in my assessment about that, but I would think it helps Beethoven touched on the deepest yearnings, pain and desire like no other composer. These players were up to it. Beautifully played!

    Opus 131: the absolute summit of classical music, here wonderfully executed.

    Came to listen to the 6th movement because of BoB.
    Actually listened to the entire quartet. Wonderful.

    Very satisfying. I often listen to Beethoven after a particularly demanding day of work. His music commands calm to rule over distemper.

      What about 30:37 until the end? I don't think BoB portrayed this Beethoven piece truthfully by using only that small clip, and disregarding the development that *immediately* follows (not to mention the build up that proceeds). The transition from 30:34 to 30:37 is transcendent.

      Really. I was going to listen to late Beethoven quartets, but fortunately happend onto this incredible performance of an unbelievable work of phenomenal intricacy and intimacy which rivals anything.
      Thanks Nathalie Schmalhofer, Nu Lee Joung, Sheila Browne, Ludwig Schmalhofer, Andreas Schmalhofer, Streichquintett. Could you get a more euphonious name for the quintet? Perhaps not. Bravos.

    The sobering “adagio quasi un poco andante” at 28:48-30:38, can be heard at Band of Brothers episode “Why we Fight”…
    A beautiful, serene piece.

    He composed this long after he lost the majority of his hearing.
    The man created this beautiful, brilliant and timeless piece of music without being able hear it. He was such a musical genius that he had essentially memorized what each individual note sounded like. Then, he was able to put that down on paper, note by note, and arrange it into what we’re listening to here today. Today, around 200 years later, it’s still being enjoyed by people all over the world.
    Ludwig van Beethoven was an absolute musical genius and a brilliant mind. How he was able to continue to compose music after losing his ability to hear is mind boggling.
    Most people would have given up and likely would have fallen into a deep depression. Which I’m sure Beethoven considered doing at some point. How he managed to push through it though and continue to make music is incredible to me.

    시작부터 끝까지 긴장과 이완이 연속으로 이어지다가 결국에는 호흡이 평온해지고, 수축됐던 내 심장은 잔잔한 호수처럼 창연히 평평해지면서 이제 내 영혼과 육체가 환희에 빛나는 영원의 세계에 접어듭니다. 베토벤! 그는 나를 천국으로 인도하는 헤르메스입니다.

    Mike C pick one of those instruments and play it as passionately as the music asks for along with the others and see if you don't move a little bit oh you probably don't play any of those instruments or you wouldn't have made such an ignorant comment.... let alone this piece is being hailed as Beethoven's best
