Ruth Leon recommendsBrahms: Piano Quartet No. 3
Violinist Janine Jansen led a terrific International Chamber Music Festival last month in Utrecht, Netherlands. So many of you enjoyed her group’s Schubert Octet a couple of weeks ago that I thought you might like this live performance from the same Festival of Brahms’ Quartet No.3 in C minor, Op. 60.
It is sometimes called the Werther Quartet after Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther. The premiere took place in Vienna on November 18, 1875. Richard Wagner and his wife Cosima were in attendance.
The players are Janine Jansen, violin, Timothy Ridout, viola, Daniel Blendulf, cello, and Denis Kozhukhin, piano. Lovely.
