First movement's key signature is giving me anxiety. D:

[AndrewStockley]

What an astonishing piece! You never know what key he's going to next. And what a wonderful performance of a challenging masterpiece.

I think this is my favorite Dvorak quartet. That seventh jump downward at 1:21 is so heartwrenchingly beautiful

[igneousrock]

this is kinda fire tbh, dvorak really popped off on this one NGL (tbh fr)

[sumeetsharma]

In string quartet genre Dvorak is the true successor of Beethoven

[JavierVillamorLugo]

Las líneas contrapuntísticas se entrecruzan con la quasi genilidad de un Bach. Javier Villamor Lugo.

[lawrencetaylor]

Merci.
The more I hear of Antonín Dvořák, the more I want to hear.

[beaker]

This is the first time I’ve heard this amazing piece of music. Thanks for sharing it.

[giveall]

The coda of last movement seemed to be too fast at the first glance, but after couple of listenings I love it more and more :D It is SOOOO enjoyable. I even whistle it to myself.

[mediolanumhibernicus]

Is this the only string quartet in history that begins in Ab minor? I can’t even think of another one that begins in Ab major ( there is a mass by Schubert).

[philipthonemann]

Very many thanks for going to all you trouble to do this - it is a really wonderful aid to study of this beautiful piece, which I am going to play shortly with an amateur group. Greatly appreciated! Best wishes, Philip Thonemann

[herbchilds]

That scherzo (furiant?) 2nd movement is an incredible tour-de-force.

[rogernortman]

The finale sounds like the finale of Brahms Violin Concerto.

[georgenorris]

so exuberant and fresh! wonderful piece!

[Piflaser]

A little bit like late Beethoven
quartets.
