Hey, while I've got you on the phone here........................

How much do you know the music of Aaron Copland?

I've been trying to figure out a piece that sounds like his stuff (Early American westernish.....) for more than 20 years.

If I can describe something for you do you think you could pick it out or would you be just as lost as I am?

Fun fact: A man was asked to write a review of this piece for a newspaper after it first premiered, however he didn't actually go to the concert but still wrote a review. He basically put, "It was nice, but the sound of five clarinets was a bit odd." He didn't realise it was for clarinet and string quartet!

This piece is so beautiful that, at times, it’s almost too painful to listen to. An outpouring of late Romantic feeling tempered by Classical architectonics. That is precisely what Brahms could do better than just about any other composer. An elegiac belatedness pervades this piece. The only chamber piece that affords me more pleasure is Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 14 in C# minor, Op. 131. Thank you for posting this, complete with the score to follow along.

My very first impression of this piece, when I was a teenager, is that I found it quite odd, but very compelling. I didn't quite understand it, but I knew that I would come to understand it and love it. I was a huge Brahms fan from the tender age of 3 on. I was so reminded of the late Beethoven quartets upon first hearing this, particularly 131 and 132, my 2 favorites. I knew it was something that could only be composed toward the end a lifetime of rigourous compositional output, much like those of Beethoven. The Clarinet Quintet is one of those pieces that even Brahms detractors can't deny. I agree, its beauty is painful. The phrase that begins at bar 5 of the first movement causes me to well up every time. The second movement could not be more wistful.

Credo che sia in assoluto la più bella esecuzione esistente di questo stupendo Quintetto di Johannes Brahms. Il Quartetto Amadeus e Karl Leister lo interpretano magnificamente come un misterioso sortilegio, come un incantevole miraggio intriso di una sublime malinconia: una pura costruzione della mente tanto affascinante quanto irraggiungibile. Alla fine dell'ultimo movimento la musica non termina, piuttosto si può dire che si spenga, come la fiamma di un cero ormai consumato, che - dopo un ultimo, quasi disperato bagliore - si estingue in un soffio. E noi sentiamo che un sogno meraviglioso ci è sfuggito di mano, e quasi temiamo di non poterlo rifare mai più...

@stephencolantti1828

Ah, Marina, tu sei un poeta. Brahms amo' Clara Schumann tutta la vita. Dopo la morte di suo marito, Robert, voleva vivere sempre una vedova. Nonostante, rimanevano amici. Credo che questa musica e' una reflessione di sua nostalgia nel autunno della vita, come hai suggerito, per un'amore mai consumato e perduto per sempre.

In quell'episodio il colore del clarinettista ha una timbrica da brividi senza perdere di consistenza e con il Budapest che lo segue con intensità febbrile ma mai scomposta. Per me un capolavoro...

This piece is rightfully thought of by many as Brahms' greatest work and certainly one of the greatest works of 19th century music.

But people who play chamber music know that the Op. 111 and Op. 88 viola quintets (string quartet + viola) are in the same class -- I would encourage people to seek them out on Youtube and get to know them as well.

Op. 111 was actually intended to be Brahms' final major work before his retirement. Its mood is jovial, even festive, evocative of an amusement park, so I don't think it's right to use these pieces to speculate on Brahms' mood at this period in his life. He was just writing what was beautiful to him.

Anyway, it was after Op. 111 that Brahms saw a concert featuring the brilliant clarinettist Richard Muhlfeld. Brahms was so inspired, he put retirement on hold and wrote two clarinet sonatas, the clarinet trio and this quintet -- all of which are masterpieces. I've been playing chamber music for 50 years and those clarinet sonatas have been among my most treasured pieces of music since I was a teenager.
