(1/2) Schubert - Piano Trio No.1 - I. Allegro moderato

[henripche]

Ouch! That cut-off point was in the middle of a beautiful passage.

[MusicaAngela]

Tempo is too fast. Relax people!

[mateusbelloni]

Menuhin! Great

[essexian76]

Does it honestly matter where Schubert came from? If he's not British then he's brilliant anyway, so WTF!

[georgiannanyman]

I haven't consulted the Oracle but I am quite sure that Schubert himself and Mozart and even the Marx brothers and, needless to say ,all the players in this magnificent performance are Human Beings .

[3logic]

Que hermosa pieza!. Excelentes Schubert, el trio, el video y tu buen gusto. Gracias!

[elurseeknay]

This piece blows my fucking mind every time I hear it

[alwerner49]

A very fine recording and a masterly trio.

[BillDFC]

When do the Marx brothers appear to liven things up?

[palcsi]

Dear @BillDFC, Marx brothers are Marx brothers, Schubert is Schubert. :o)

[BillDFC]

@palcsi Yeah, but imagine what a superb combination they would make :-)

[pureaKero]

I played this piece in my first year of university (piano), and let me tell you, this has to be one of the most difficult trios to put together (but worth every minute of it)!

[garfreed]

Philip Glass says this piece was a great influence on him.

[Cherylyuennable]

Schubert, the genius..

[halneufmille]

Such lightness and grace in the interpretation!

[kanani771]

BRAVO !

[MusicPredominates]

good wrist - lower arm action by YEHUDI

[MrLindenson]

why are there not more recordings of this on youtube! A60stock please post the other mvmts with Mr. Oister!

[ttellerx]

All three were child prodigies but their mother believed that only the son should have a musical career and the daughters should be married off.

[howdilydoodily]

Too bad Yehudi didn't tell his sister to put it to full stick. You can barely hear the piano. Apparently it's a necessary evil in chamber music. "Accompanying" the strings.

[TheAlonetogether]

Maurice Gendron est beau. Le son des musiciens se divise aisément par trois. La complémentarité harmonique de l'oeuvre s'obtient ici par un effacement des mesures impaires. Nous le savons tous, celles-çi, dans l'oeuvre de Schubert, annoncent toujours un progression harmonique retrograde. Mais là n'est pas le plus merveilleux. Maurice Gendron est vraiment très beau. Son instrument est tellement là qu'il en est vrai.

[ipmoic]

Yehudi's sister Yalta was also a very gifted pianist and harpsichordist. All in the family!

[beethomozart]

" there's no need but to give a glance to this trio and all the misery of existence dissappears, reappearing the ornamanted world with all its freshness", thus said non other than Schumann about this masterpiece by Schubert, nothing else to add!!!!!

[zzzxtreme]

hepzibah could have been THE great pianist of 20th century

[howdilydoodily]

Ummmmm...no. She's fine, but clearly not saying too much here in this performance.

[otterhouse]

Very nice to see (and hear!) this performance! Have many of Gendron's lp's, love his cello-playing...

Greetings from the Netherlands, Rolf

You can fond me onTwitter as @otterhouse

[loborojos]

tan chimba esa cambiadora de páginas! de resto.. excelente!!!

[jralyea]

Sublime music. Way back when, with the cello part played by French horn (me), my high school trio took this piece to the Michigan Solo and Ensemble Contest . The judge was surprised (but liked it 100%).

[sweetheart4505]

Incredible piece - thanks for uploading it!

[uclrichard]

@sweetheart4505 bollocks! schweinsteiger!! schuby was english!!

(only joking)

[pegasus09196]

omg! i literally love this piece!!!

[weikko79]

Me too. Though I don't know how I could love it except literally.

[pegasus09196]

like you can love it sarcastically, or literally...

if you get what i mean...

[tough0crowd0eh9]

@pegasus09196 Then why don't you marry it?

[DrTWG]

Please ignore my previous post - wrong video.

[munkybrain]

haha how did you manage to post on the wrong video? Incidently that's a very beautiful film

[DrTWG]

After hiring a composer to write a score

for his film 'Barry Lyndon' , Kubrick ended up using established pieces - this is one of them.

[suzettegm]

I like the dress of the lady turning the pages

[Vlaanderson]

German compositors are the best in the world!

[foudetoi]

Being German, I really regret telling you that Schubert was Austrian, not German :-)

[cealalta]

brava:)

[weikko79]

Perhaps the guy meant "germanophone"?

[byuzgen]

@foudetoi Same people.

[hwatts1095]

@foudetoi true dat.

[redthgs]

@foudetoi

So was Hitler!! or Mozart!! But All of them considered themselves as germans!!

[swunt10]

@foudetoi no he is a german composer. there was no 'austria' before 1866. all people before 1866 called themself germans. they would laugh at use now if they would know that we call them (mozart, schubert) austrians. they fellt as germans.

[foudetoi]

@swunt10 Not quite. Austria is older than Germany that actually was founded in 1867. After the Imperial Recess of 1803, Francis II, Emperor of the Holy Empire, declared himself Emperor of the Austrian Empire. So, Schubert lived most of his live in a State that called itself Austria.

[swunt10]

@foudetoi oh god. get over it. it was germany. they didn't felt as austrians. its like saying Bach was a thuringian composer??? nobody cares not even him. they wer germans and they said so themselfs.

vienna was the capital for that mater, so they all went there. they didn't go to a city in austria or something they wanted to be in the capial of the german nations. and Francis II made himself emperor because he knew the HRA of the german nations wouldn't survive napoleon so he remains in power

[mttcello]

Has anyone played the Haydn Cadenza Maurice Gendron wrote? I want to find a recording of it. Also,superb recording.

[cofycup]

Are you talking about the Concerto in D major?

I have played this yes. There is a recording of Gendron out there. If not Truls Mork plays this cadenza in his recording.

[mttcello]

NO, I'm talking about the Concerto in C major but I will look into Truls Mork. Thanks.

[wavingcellist]

Gendron played this cadenza himself on a recording (philips label) with conductor Raymond Leppard. Unfortunately I lost this CD

Hope you can find this recording.

kind regards

[INEEDSLEEP05]

i've played it

[rosenknopf]

Yes fantastic, but who is the lady playing the piano?

[AlanDNZ]

Yhudi's sister (Hepsibar) is the pianist - IMO she was much underated both as acompanist and solist - Menuhin's other sister was also a highly acomplished pianist. I think the balance in this playing/recording is superb. I shall have to get it some day.

[rosenknopf]

Thanks for info,- yes, I agree it's a superb performance.

[zzzxtreme]

yes she is quite underrated. she was not interested in doing recordings i guess

[sensoryreceptor]

This is the video that introduced me to Maurice Gendron, I fell in love with his playing at his first solo -"what a gorgeous, sweet sound". I purchased the DVD, but it is wonderful to now have it on-line, for a "quick-fix" when stress levels get too high!

[postmodernhousewife]

total bliss.

[schilippe]

menuhin and gendron, who can ask for more!?!?!

[howdilydoodily]

A pianist worth the string duo's reputation. And a better piano.
