PTCello ::: Favorites overall the vibrato needs to blend better...piano passages need to be much more piano. I really enjoyed listening to this several times... I wish the camera had been better placed, and I hope to hear more from you guys as time goes on. God bless you all... 07-10-19 03:18:55 __________________________________________________
PTCello ::: Favorites Cellist. the opening figure: instead of 4 2 4 12... don't use 4rth finger. it is always the weakest finger, and you want strong vibrato on the D... try 3 1 2(or 3) 12. if you use 2, it requires an extension, but it's worth it, because 2 has the strongest vibrato... And on long notes, generally avoid 4rth finger. In measure 21, play that G with 2nd finger. M 36, play the G with 3rd. The music is slow enough that the exnension won't cause a problem. 07-10-19 03:10:40 __________________________________________________
PTCello ::: Favorites Overall, there seems to be a lack of knowing which line should take precedence, and the dynamics are narrow. If your softs are genuinely SOFT, then the sudden fortes are Much more impressive. Remember, Haydn was the king of using dynamics in surprising and humorous ways. 07-10-19 03:04:49 __________________________________________________
PTCello ::: Favorites (more) This is possible the most Cello-friendly quartet Haydn ever wrote. Cellist, you need more interesting trills. You seem to have trouble with trilling. Please also don't stint on the 4rth finger vibrato. 07-10-19 02:58:33 __________________________________________________
PTCello ::: Favorites This is one of my favorite Haydns, and I play is a lot. I can't tell your ages, but here are some serious comments: The violist is very good, violins are each sharp, and play with a thin sound. You must learn to play with a round sound and not a piercing one. Perhaps you merely need better instruments. Eventually, good players need outstanding instruments, and I'm not sure your violins are as good as you are. 07-10-19 02:55:14 __________________________________________________
GeniusHaydn ::: Favorites FJ Haydn was the greatest composer of S. Quartets..... Period!!! Yes, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn and others wrote great pieces. But after evaluating everyone's complete set, its FJ Haydn's that stands-out as the best. Then someone please explain to me----Why he is not played as much as the others. I guess it takes someone to make a movie(Amadeus, Immortal Beloved) about you until they are recognized as genius....... 07-07-23 09:35:05 __________________________________________________
