and pinching my nerves away.

At 1:49 does anyone else see Argerich's hands and think that they add a mechanistically creepy, unnatural quality that enhances the spirit of the song?

[A3cello]

Maisky's exceling himself!

8D

Who else totally hears Shosty's 8th quartet in this mvmt? I wonder which one was written first

[OrangeGhost8]

@MrLindenson Absolutely! It is quite pronounced in the piano. The opus number for the eighth quartet is Op. 110 so since this one is Op. 67, I would assume this came first. Very interesting that this isn't as famous, if you ask me.

[MrLindenson]

@OrangeGhost8 Haha, interesting stuff.

So much great chamber work goes unnoticed. The fact that the 8th quartet is famous surprises me more than the obscurity of many other of his brilliant works.

[mickyj300x]

@MrLindenson Oh that was intentional on Shostakovich's part. His 8th has all sorts of quotes in it; Symphonies 1 & 5, this, Cello Concerto 1, the list goes on.

Apparently Shostakovich thought of his 8th as his epitaph, which is fun.

this owns

[nicknktleung]

wow...

[TheSaxyBandGeek]

Can anyone tell me why some of the pizzicato is right-hand and some is left-hand? Is it up to interpretation?

[TheSaxyBandGeek]

@kristieahn95 Already knew most of that, but this doesn't fit either situation so the question is still unanswered :P

[MrLindenson]

Haha, Kremer looks possessed! He's still able to produce an incredible sound though.

[PIAN0PLAYER5]

where's the second part?

[MrRaph87]

superbe version, évidemment !! les interprètes sont de toute première notoriété, et ont suffisamment fait preuve de leur génie : qui doit-on préferer entre Argerich, Kremer et Maïsky ? pourtant ...

... le défaut léger de cette interprétation est d'être un peu trop ... "interprétée" !! il n'est pas utile d'en rajouter dans la référence au folklore juif, pas besoin de trop de "délicatesses", ni de portamentos trop appuyés ... cette musique dit parfaitement cela sans en faire trop.
