HELP! Can someone name this tune?!
on: May 09, 2003, 06:46:06 AM
i was listening to my midis in a folder a few minutes ago while surfing the internet. then i heard a nice piece... i decided i'd try it out. but when i looked on it's filename, it's: op34b1

i don't what this is, i don't know the composer... so i renamed it as unknown.

you can listen it. (pls copy url to the Address box of your browser if it doesn't work when you click it)

This is the piano part of the first movement of Brahm's awesome piano quintet in F minor, op. 34. I love this piece, I heard it performed last fall by the The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, with Anne-Marie McDermott. It was amazing! Particularly memorable is the scherzo, the program notes I still have (autographed!) label it "one of Brahm's most electrifying essays". I highly recommend that you hear this piece! Sorry, I don't know which recordings are good, I've only heard a moderately uninteresting one with the Julliard quartet and Leon Fleisher from 1978, it was well played but somewhat dull (at least next to McDermott). Has anyone else seen a McDermott performance? She is amazing!
