    God I love String quartets and sextets, I love the way the instruments responds to each other. Eyes closed it's like their sounds are dancing together. I'd like to be a talented writer to describe how I feel listening to your masterpieces but I can just say : Thank you Beethoven you'll never be forgotten.

    Waves of expression, from the players and Beethoven.
  • I have watched them so many times on other sites and always admired them .

    Beethoven, in ill health, had just completed two massive public works - his Missa Solemnis and 9th Symphony. He could have just retired or saved his energy for more such "big pieces" (perhaps making more money with such works) but instead he gave us these wonderful late quartets beginning with this great masterpiece 127.
  • @irabraus9478
    Ebene is one of the very few quartets today who can play this piece. They play with their EARS (all eight) as well as their hands!
  • @leeshahinian

  • @jjaangho

    Beethovens Musik hat mir schon immer sehr gut gefallen. Durch seine Symphonie Nr. 5, die wir in der Oberprima (gab‘s damals noch) durchnahmen, wurde meine Begeisterung für klassische Musik erst so richtig geweckt, durch Beethovens Streichquartett Nr. 12 wurde ich Jahrzehnte später von de Kammermusik angezogen. Insofern habe ich Beethoven so einiges zu verdanken.
