The Emerson String Quartet performs Contrapunctus 9 from J.S. Bach's "Art of the Fugue." Notable in this performance is Emerson's awesome violist, Lawrence Dutton, who really shines here.

I like when it's performed so fast - a nice change of pace compared to the other parts.

LOVe that cellist so much.I'm a cellist,and it's funny,when I'm resting I watch the other performers too.When I first saw this performed,my music history teacher didn't tell us what it was.I just knew it was Bach.
Then at the end,he let the silence fall for just a moment.Then he said:
And then,Joshan Sebastian Bach.Died.
First time i ever cried in class.

Un auténtico lujo de ejecución, felicitaciones a LA CASA DE LA MÚSICA, en Quito-Ecuador que en su acertada administración hace posible que la ciudad y el país acojan a músicos de esta calidad. Solamente siento que aunque siendo relativamente económico el valor de las entradas, para mi no es posible, Felicitaciones. Rocío,Quito-Ecuador

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thinks that Dutton sounds abnormally badass in this video. Man, this is so amazing, some of the greatest musicians in the world playing one of the greatest works ever written. When I listen to this it really makes it hard for me to decide whether I want to compose or play for a living. I can either strive to write music this great, or I can strive to be able to play music as well as they can. Tough choice

it's even more amazing to think that 4 people can coordinate such musical complexities that typically requires just one pianist.

It's interesting you should mention that. I think in my years of playing quartets I've come to realize that the group is only as good as their violist. Perhaps that's being a bit too simplistic, but there's plenty of truth in that.
