Messiaen - Quatuor Pour La Fin Du Temps V - Quartet for the End of Time V

Uploaded by ptinkerhess on Dec 5, 2011
Cellist Eric Tinkerhess performs the fifth movement of Olivier Messiaen's "Quartet for the End of Time".
The tempo marking is "infiniment lent", infinitely slow.
In 1940, Messiaen (1908-92) was interned in a German prison camp, where he discovered among his fellow prisoners a clarinettist, a violinist and a violoncellist. The success of a short trio which he wrote for them led him to add seven more movements to this Interlude, and a piano to the ensemble, to create "Quatuor pour la fin du temps", or Quartet for the End of Time. Messiaen and his friends first performed it for their 5000 fellow prisoners on January 15, 1941.
Movement V: "Louange à l'Éternité de Jésus", Praise to the Eternity of Jesus
Jesus is considered here as the Word. A broad phrase, "infinitely slow", on the cello, magnifies with love and reverence the eternity of the Word, powerful and gentle, "whose time never runs out". The melody stretches majestically into a kind of gentle, regal distance.
