One of Mozarts perfect pieces. The melodies, polyphony, tonal balance, contrasting moods, unexpected key changes, and jewelry box style accompaniments are all impeccable.

This is one of the best performances of the Kegelstatt I have heard. The dynamics, tempo, and harmony among the three instruments are wonderful.

Martin Frost is the one clarinettist who combines beautiful sound, virtuosity, and sensitivity in a stunning manner. A consumate artist!

Mozart makes me happy, never fail

0:00 I. Andante 5:25 II. Menuetto 10:58 III. Allegretto

three artists who are present emotionally and spiritually ALL the time, beautifully performing both individually and in ensemble, thanks!

I played this for my senior recital in college. I absolutely love this piece. I love chamber music!

Beautiful performance of this masterpiece by Mozart! The mild tone of clarinet sounds really charming. The interaction among the three soloists is very intimate and perfectly synchronized.

I'm delighted to be able to watch this performance. The clarinet sings beautifully. Mozart is served well by these musicians. Bravo!

Flawless execution, and Martin Frost has a very distinctive and appealing tone. This is one of my favorite pieces by Mozart (along with the clarinet quintet, The Magic Flute, the G minor symphony, and the "Jupiter" symphony).

That trio is perfect for my garden party.

Wunderschöne Leistung dieses mozartischen Meisterstücks! Der milde Ton der Klarinette klingt echt bezaubernd. Die Miteinanderwirkung zwischen den drei Solisten ist sehr intim und perfekt synchronisiert.

Recently, I have finally come to understand and listen to classical music. This is the result of learning how to write music notes and basic harmony progression.

Beautiful - thanks Mozart, thanks Martin, thanks guys.

A wonderful performance. I'm not generally a fan of Fröst's tempi but this is beguiling in every way. And such exceptionally brilliant viola playing too. A magnificent example of "listening", where each player is superbly responsive to the others. So many brilliant musical choices on display here - not all of them perfect but every one genuinely interesting and carefully thought out. The amazing thing about the three great Mozart clarinet works is that each time you hear one of them you think it must be the most unsurpassably sublime. If you hear the concerto, it has to be the concerto that is the greatest. Then you listen again to the Quintet and the Quintet seems impossible to beat. And then you come back to the Trio, and the Trio seems exquisitely perfect ... And so on, round it goes.

In my opinion, this is a great performance, it has a beautiful tempo in all movements.

The lovely Eb trio KV 498, in a crystalline and lyrical performance by Martin and friends, here with his longtime pianist Roland Pontinen and the great violist Maxim Rysanov. The KV 498 trio has been misnicknamed the "Kegelstatt" trio for over 200 years. In actuality, it was the KV 487 french duos that were composed two weeks earlier, "untern Kegelscheiben" ("while play skittles") by Mozart. This lovely Eb trio, KV 498 was not. Mozart writes on the autograph of KV 498 (now in Paris) very simply, "Ein Terzett fur Klavier, Klarinette, und Viola." I have edited the wiki page on KV 498 to reflect this information.

Before Mozart nobody had ever thought of putting this instruments together...inspired idea !

Beautiful phrasing and tone inter play between the instruments ....very enjoyable

I was a clarinetist, but now I am violist...so this music is perfect

Beautifully done; that whole last movement was delightfully playful.

Was Herr Rysanov aus seiner Viola so an Klang und Ausdruck hervorzaubert,- Kompliment!!! Allein das ist schon ein Genuss, der den aufmerksamen Lauscher belohnt!!! Auch als Trio ist es eine sehr schöne Version! Eine Klarinette mit sehr schönem Ton und ein klares und elegantes Klavier! Bravo!!!

Very alive & fast...for "grupetto"-melody, but....bravo Pianist--great Ensemble's Rhithm!❤❤❤

Beautiful piece,Mozart The Great.

Nagyon szép!!! Emlékszem ezt még a zenei táborban tanultuk. Nagyon szeretem ezt is :)

Great performance!!! Beautiful!!!

this is such a gem of a piece!!!

Here's how the discussion starts... Piano+viola: "Isn't this an interesting idea?" Piano: "Yes and i also think this" Piano+viola: "But ours is still a good idea" Piano: "And mine as well" Clarinet: "If i may, i have another thought, allow me to explain..." Piano: "Ok let me see if i got that straight"

Wonderful concert!

Very elegant playing! Beautiful!

12:47 Stuns me every time.

What a splendid performance!

Wow So beautiful

Mozart me encanta con cualquiera de sus composiciones musicales. Realmente era un genio

何回でも聴きたくなります……名曲です‼️

gorgeous playing

Gran sonido, estupenda interpretación

Very nicely played....music...not just notes. This was my first chamber piece and I still love it. Hey..it's Mozart. Often hard to find a viola that can play sincere chamber music soloist instead of folow the leader.

Elegante ed incantevole: thank you for uploading

great artists, great music.

19:35 ~ the viola player's only mistake

Very nice performance. Bravo!

Großartig interpretiert, ist eines meiner Lieblingswerke.

0:00 Andante 5:25 Minuet-Trio 10:58 Rondo

This is so relaxing to hear

@hierrot He has harsh articulation because of the huge hall. The bigger the reverb is the harsher you have to tongue. Also, he has a very focused tone it's just that untrained ears hear bright as unfocused. Also, telling him he needs a warmer sound is telling him what your concept of tone is.

superbe ,, martin frost a la clarinette magistral , comme toujours , et mozart le génie inaccessible ,,

very good recording

Very fine from threee exellent players. martin is as always marvelous and has good help from the viol. Don´t forget Roland Pöntinen. I think his is one of swedens leading chambermusic players.

Mozart et Martin Frost magnifiques 💖

Very beautiful.

Martin Fröst de Messi onder de klarinet spelers.

they are great and well of course this is a great work, but i think the viola isn't sounding loud enough, though it's probably just a recording problem

Linda música!

There is a very nice arrangement of this for two violins. It is No. 10 in the Litolff collection (No. 2111) of Mozart 12 duos pour 2 Violons, Op. 70

very nice. Mozart loved puppet plays. Bunraku of Japan, a picture-story show of Japan is very similar to the puppet play. pictures come in a frame by turns. very nice arts they are.

Much as I would prefer original instruments (it's the only traditional way to hear what Mozart intended), I admit that contemporary instruments are much more mellow, with a deeper, more intense sound. This is especially noticeable with the piano. The clarinetist is brilliant, with insightful tonal qualities and well-paced delivery that's just perfect. I think Wolfie would be pleased with this performance.

Very well done, each complements the others. Could use a little more volume from the fiddle...

So sweet...

it's the first time i see martin play w/ sheet music....

I hope so!!!!

J'adoreeeee cette musique 🔥🫠

Wonderful viola part

¡Ahí queda eso! Por si alguno dudaba de la capacidad de Martin Fröst para adaptarse al más puro clasicismo, y deleitarnos con ese sonido contenido y aterciopelado, tan exquisito ¡Una maravilla! ¡Gracias por un regalo tan apropiado para el deleite de los sentidos! ¡Bravo!

Auch ein toller Bratscher!!!

Linea diretta con il paradiso !!! ❤❤❤

This piece must have intrigued and influenced Brahms because I here so many of Mozart’s ideas in his clarinet works.

Много е хубаво !

Bravo!!👏👏👏. Mozart would have approved!👏👏💕

17:14 Rondo. ALLEGRETTO ❣️

очень красиво!

Well, where can we find your version of this piece ;-)

0:38-0:48 👌

Although Martin Fröst tends to take fast tempos he is a great clarinetist and performer. Good tone but a bit far from what I like. My favorites though have to be Håkan Rosengren and Walter Boeykens.

Squisito!!!

nice performance of this mozart gem - it's a shame that mozart wrote so little for clarinet - he was pretty good at it...ha

Stunningly delicious!

Die große Herausforderung bei diesem Stück ist die klangliche Balance zwischen den drei Instrumenten. Diese gelingt überwiegend gut bis sehr gut, auch wenn sich die Klarinette gegen die Viola naturgemäß etwas stärker durchsetzt, während das Klavier sich gut zurückhält. Allerdings ist dadurch die Ausdruckskraft dieses Instruments stark beschnitten. Dadurch wirkt der Klavierpart eigenartig farblos. Generell scheint mir der Pianist in seiner Leistung etwas hinter den beiden anderen Protagonisten zurück zu stehen. Dies kann aber auch durch die berechtigte dynamische Zurückhaltung bedingt sein. Fröst ist ein sehr guter Klarinettist, auch wenn ihm zum Niveau eines Wenzel Fuchs, von den "großen Alten" wie Peter Schmidt oder Heinrich Geuser ganz zu schweigen, noch etwas fehlt. Aber er ist noch jung und das kann noch kommen. Fazit: eine gute Darbietung dieses Trios!

He is a fine pianist. What exactly is it that you don't like?

Maxim Rysanov, viola

wunderbat toll

Martin är best :)

Likeable

Hello, can I use your music to make my video? I'll apreciate to you if you response me!!

3period 10:52

10:30 delicious !

It is true use of a viola instead of the clarinet would likely result in a mor ephi ,Ithink that this instrumentation is -- due to diversity ensemble--a more compelling soundi

derde deel: 10:55

it was Salieri.

Клас какой...легкий звук=))

what is the name of the viola players? I'm violist too.

1. 0.10 2. 5.25 3. 10.59

frost the best clarinet

sesi,sesi,sesi, custashindi clarinete ji purhe´eska ichan michoan mexico,

Superb! I did not know his name so far. I found real musician now..

They must have piped some Beethoven into the Halle where Mozart was kegelling.

Cuando Mozart esta ba dentro de su madre se imaginaria ella q su hijo seria un genio musical?.Alguien equibocado dijo q Leopoldo al enterarse q estaba embarazada se enojo y le dijo (Vas a tener un hijo mas? mira q ya has perdido ninos!)No creo en q le haya dicho eso Sino q estaba contento. Ese fue el padre de Beethoven a su esposa le dijo eso no Leopold a la suya creo q fue asi

טריו מקסים של מוצרט לקלרנית של מוצרט

and he can't take it back now :(

I recently watched a lengthy masterclass on this work, in which Benjamin Zander stated that this piece was impossible to perform at the speed these musicians play it. According to Benjamin Zander the first movement must be played at half speed. Obviously Mr Zander was wrong.
