    Even today, the final movement sounds somehow avant garde. No wonder Beethoven’s contemporary critics were so clueless. Being deaf gave him the liberty of breaking rules.

    I suppose it wouldn't surprise us in the early 21st Century to learn that Beethoven's Quartet No 13 Opus 133 "was universally condemned by contemporary music critics. A reviewer writing for the Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung in 1826 described the fugue as "incomprehensible, like Chinese" and "a confusion of Babel" [Wikipedia, "Grosse Fugue" ] No one who's not a professional musicologist remembers the names of these critics, but here are a few more quotes from then: ""inaccessible", "eccentric", "filled with paradoxes", and "Armageddon".[Wikipedia] .With these critiques of derision and obliqui in mind, hearing it played by the Belcea Quartet is all the more a wonder to hear. Their playing was the work of a closely-knit ensemble, of highly accomplished and disciplined professionals and above all, of passionate admirers of Beethoven. Beethoven, I have no doubt, wrote the Grosse Fugue with audiences in mind whose eyes and ears would be tuned to music150 years ahead of his own time. This was his genius, of course, and we have to thank him for his foresight and the Belcea Quartet for an outstanding and riveting performance. THANK YOU!

      Beethoven did not attend the premier of this work, and when the second violinist reported to him that the audience requested two of the middle movements be encored Beethoven replied, "And the fugue? That alone should have been repeated. Cattle! Asses!"

      I have never, NEVER, EVER, heard the word "genius" being used to describe a critic, or their reviews;
      nor other words such as:
      "Ahead of his time"
      "A visionary"
      "A maverick"

      @@Cantbuyathrill I believe that Jean Sibelius wonderfully said: "No monument [ a statue] was ever erected to commemorate a critic." This goes for music, theater, literature, dance, food, wine, paintings, sculpture, poetry, and architecture. There must be a reason for this consistent 'forgetfulness', right? Even a famous critic like George Bernard Shaw is remembered for his own works, not for his articles about others (with few exceptions for wit).In the context of Beethoven's music, there are many critics' carrions on the path to his success: Even Prince Nicholas Esterhazy who called Beethoven's Mass in B 'horrible, revolting and unlistenable' (not an exact quote), i's remembered for other things, even for this bit of piffle but never with anything other than disapprobation. This is as it should be!

      Still Beethoven approved for publication the new finale. He was not the type of composer to lower himself to popular taste, particularly in a revered genre like the String Quartet. Though some Grosse Fuge finale champions look down their noses, so to speak, on the published version because presumably that one's finale is lighter (is lightness a sin?), one could make a care for either ending. Whatever, the light new finale is no bagatelle.

    Is the Belcea Quartet the best string quartet of all time? Perhaps, perhaps not. But regardless, their performance of Beethoven's master-work Opus 130, with the original Fugue... is possibly the greatest rendition of this piece since it was written. Simply Earth-shattering beauty and power.

    It is hard to understand that at this time 1825, Beethoven was completely deaf. How can a man compose this music without hearing it at all? That question remains, and we still have no answer. Only that we believe that he was composing this in the memory of his earlier hearing of music. He composed it in his mind, and wrote it out on a paper. And it became real music for us, still having ears. Have you ever heard of wonders? This is a true wonder.

      Yes, that's outstanding, but that's not what intrigues more about Beethoven. What intrigues me is that, except for Mozart, any other music artist in history was way inferior of Beethoven. I try hard ti admire other composers like I admire Beethoven and I can't, there's something divine about Beethoven. He did had every note in his head, we can argue that, but it seems like a joke that he was deaf. The greatest of all, no one after him became better than him, and he was deaf. It makes me wonder how much of his story is real, or if anything about it is real

      @@Cantbuyathrill Funny , a deaf critics criticism of the music of a deaf composer. No, Beethoven could hear this music in his brain, and put it out on notes so we today can hear his genious thoughts about music. And luckily most of us has ears.
