the strad that Vernokia Eberle is playing sounds so sweet and rich... we're all fortunate to be able to listen to it. The viola player is using a very rare instrument made by Gasparo da Salo made sometime before 1609, over 400 years old! The cellist is playing an instrument made by one of the finest instrument makers in Europe in the 1700s. These instruments are equal in monetary value to yachts.

I love Mozart's Chamber music with all my heart. His lyricism and harmonic balance makes it perfect to my earls. It is not a surprise then that I have some of mozart's chamber works as the best works ever in the genre. However, this trio is somehting else. It is so unique that it took more than a 100 years for other composers to experiment in this style with success. This is a masterpiece and this performance is superb. Thanks for sharing this with the world.

With all of the horror and misery brought forth by so much of mankind, its moments like these when I see three people living to their fullest potential to make something beautiful, that I find their is hope for us. Thank you for this moment.

Ah si les hommes pouvaient dialoguer entre eux comme vous le faites par vos instruments, respectant la différence entre eux, non pas pour s"opposer mais pour construire ensemble! Vous écouter, mais aussi vous voir est un vrai moment de bonheur

Mozart never fails to amaze me again and again in a world of suffering and destruction bringing back the eternal light. Amazingly beautiful but very difficult piece exquisitely played by professional musicians ‼️💖🌸💕 Wish I could have enjoyed this live but thank you for this amazing recording.🎻

美しい、幸せを運んでくれました。アップしてくれた方に感謝。

heard this yesterday, and had to come back and hear it again. I love this piece for many years now, and this performance is really one of the best I have ever heard. As a violinist I know this is a difficult piece - not just on the pure technical side, but also when it comes to giving it the right sound (spirit, if you will). At the end of the day - this is a "perfect storm" of a composer at his best, musicians at their best, and sound/video technicians at their best. bravo.

아름다운 연주자, 아름다운 선율, 아름다운 연주장소 뭐 하나 부족한 점이 없네요. Thanks for sharing this play

All of Mozarts’ is comfortable to the ear and to the mind, and wi quench and moisturize the dryness o the soul ⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟 This performance is Colossal

Finally found something that melts my heart to the point that I feel like crying. This is my 4th night listening to these beautiful songs. 💙💜

Only an glorious compositor manages to compose music in an amazing way with the sound of these three stringed instruments. Sensitivity and simultaneously the joy that he induces are elegant and wonderful. We be able to listen to this masterpiece for hours, always discovering different magnificent sounds, that escape us, even to the great attention we dedicate to unfolding the music. Viva this glorious Mozart, that through his music give us a huge pleasure in our day to day.

Mozart,s works are invincible , moist on the earth and human soul . Mozart,s works are forever .

I used to listen to the classic music in my youth. Such as mozart beethoveen. That made me feel good and unwiding relaxing. After growing up i cant listen to it often like my old days. But i tried to listen to it in my free time. Actually i like jazz music. I t makes me feel good too. I love classci and jazz

What a master piece. Glory to Mozart. And glory to the players; they are absolutely perfect.

Why is Mozart so perfect? Always exquisite taste, every note in balance.

the adagio movement breaks me every time in the best way possible

This performance is the personification of the word synergy. There is a oneness of expression that comes from complete mastery of the music and an understanding of Mozart's intentions that totally radiates out to the audience.

Fascinating how much music can come out of only three instruments. And this is of course a celebration of these three. Mozart did the right thing when he choosed Veronica, Amiha and Sol to play his Divertimento.

A difficult piece played to perfection, the interplay between these three is inspiring and a true gift. Many thanks for this amazing work.

3つの弦がこれほどまで絡み合いながら一瞬たりとも、もつれたりしない。素晴らしい演奏。私としては絶賛です。

These recordings are so compelling, beautiful, and entrancing. The music and the playing of each of the instrumentalists are just of such high excellence. I am enthralled with every video. The Schubert 'Octet' is also transfiguring. Such depth of detail, and the sound is as if you are in the space itself. I really can't get enough of these performances of this Festival.

As a sidenote: GREAT work from the audio engineers as well! The sound quality of this live recording is marvelous!

One of Mozart's small scale masterpieces. The end of the Andante is extraordinary. Full of riches and beautifully played.

Mozart’s Divertimento for String Trio in E-Flat Major, K. 563 This work is definitely one of a kind. It is not only Mozart’s only finished composition for string trio-it also appears to be the first such work by any composer. The backbone of classical style is four-part harmony, which is why the string quartet became the chamber-music medium of choice during this period. To create a similar balance and fullness of sound with only three instruments was a special challenge, which Mozart met not only by the few double-stops he used but mainly by writing three string parts of uncommon richness and intensity. And if that were not enough, he revisited a genre-the divertimento-which he had much cultivated during the early stages of his career but practically abandoned after his move from Salzburg to Vienna in 1781. The early divertimentos were scored mostly for orchestra or wind ensemble. In the late 1780s, armed with the experience of the six string quartets dedicated to Haydn and two of the magnificent viola quintets, Mozart had reached a completely new level of writing chamber music for strings, and when he combined that mastery with the lightness of the divertimento form (the word, we remember, means “entertainment”), the results were extraordinary, even by Mozart’s standards. Many of Mozart’s earlier divertimentos were in six movements, with the slow movement-minuet sequence repeated between the two outer Allegros. This form was retained in K. 563, but the movements became longer and more complex. If this is still “entertainment,” it is no longer music to accompany a banquet or a wedding celebration; it is, much rather, music for an intimate gathering of friends. In fact, Mozart wrote it for his friend and fellow Freemason Michael Puchberg, the man he was desperately asking for money the very same summer of 1788. The trio was probably first performed in the house of this wealthy merchant, perhaps with Mozart on viola. The work opens in a surprisingly subdued way, with the three instruments playing a simple descending triad in unison, sotto voce (softly). It is a curiously understated beginning that determines much of what follows, even though the subsequent materials and developments are considerably more dynamic in nature. The meditative quality of this opening carries over into the second-movement “Adagio,” which is based on an ascending triad unfolding across a wide melodic range. This triad appears in two strikingly different forms: first in a simple version, introduced by the cello, and then in an ornate form, played by the violin. How Mozart managed to build one of his most profound musical utterances from this extremely simple melody is a mystery that will never be explained. The third movement is a minuet where Mozart plays a trick on anyone who would try to dance to this music: the first two measures, though notated in the conventional 3/4 time of the minuet, really break down into three units of 2/4. The normal minuet rhythm then resumes, but other irregularities follow as the musical phrases are expanded in many unusual ways. Next comes a most-compelling set of variations on a simple, folk-like theme. As the variations progress, Mozart gets further and further away from the original theme, taking more liberties with the form as usual. It is particularly noteworthy how he turns each variation into two variations by introducing new changes at the repeat of each section. After a poignant, even tragic minor-mode episode, the last variation contains a highly virtuoso violin part, followed by a coda which recalls the theme in its unadorned original form. The second minuet is much simpler in tone and structure than the first, but it has not one but two trios, both of which are in the style of the Ländler, the Austrian folk dance that would continue to inspire composers after Mozart, from Schubert to Mahler. At the last recapitulation, a lengthy coda is appended to the minuet, developing its thematic ideas in different ways. The ingratiating theme of the finale is closely related to Mozart’s song “Komm, lieber Mai” (Come, month of May) and to the last movement of Piano Concerto, No. 27. The simple melody undergoes some rather bold transformations, but it all ends gently, with a typically Mozartean gesture where the composer appears to be smiling through his tears.

Kudos to the musicians 🎵 Kudos to the recording engineers 🎵 Kudos to Mozart 🎵 Wonder if Mozart ever wondered if people would be enjoying his music hundreds of years later... 🎵

I love how the ads are placed in between each performance, the mood and feelings invoked are never interrupted. I just now found this...what a wonderful gem produced by a master and performed by three more! Thank you for posting and in so, sending me to heaven for the duration!

This divertimento is a highest example of chamber music where Mozart reached a style perfection and instrumental balance.Good performance !

He is a real star...excellent intonation and phrasing...his playing give me so much joy. God bless him and his family. David Link

Once or twice in a lifetime do we hear a work of sublime beauty, both superbly played and with such dancing joy. This is one of so many pieces of sheer heaven from Mozart, it's almost to easy to regard this music as the norm, it is far from normal, it is way above the mere mortals of other composers. We all know the symphonys, the quartets the sonatas etc, but this piece is a divertimente, hidden away in a catalogue somewhere! Each of these players sits at the very top of musical greatness, I should know, as a professional player all my life working with the finest musicians in London, these three are among the Best. It is rare to spend 47 mins. in timeless joy!

La música hace poesía en el alma, pero sólo el corazón es poeta, gracias artistas del mundo, por alimentar y dignificar nuestra alma, con la música, como si fuera el pan nuestro y sagrado de cada día, con la música que no está para mostrar lo visible, sino para hacer visible lo que está más allá del mundo. Hernan navarrete rojas. Un humilde samurai

This is absolutely beautiful beyond belief. The musicianship is off the charts virtuosic. Bravo Veronica! Bravo Amihai! Bravo Sol! You are brilliant! Thank you Hochrhein for bringing this to us. And of course, to you Amadeo. Requiescat in pace et gloria aeterna. Et tu quoque Leopolde.

Without Mozart and his great performers like these magnificent performers , this music world would have been very lonely and insipid , and the enjoyment and pleasures of the music would have been less , and I would feel that this music world is like the taste of stale beer . From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵

Makes me calm and comfortable for everytime listening to this. Thanks so much, ladies and gentlemen. In fact, I absolutely love watching this, too, to actually see how they put their hearts and their minds into every beautiful melody of Mozart's.

Splendide interprétation de ce Divertimento pour trio à cordes. Quelle remarquable cohésion des trois interprètes : "ils respirent ensemble". C'est le compliment qu'on adressait aux trois frères Pasquier : Jean, violon, Pierre, alto et Etienne, violoncelle, premier trio à cordes juridiquement constitué.

"Like" on 4 November 2017. Trios like this are rarely written., and this is one of the best.

There's no other word I think to describe this masterpiece by mozart, exquisite...

Как люди играют! Какие таланты! Никогда не перестану восхищаться!!!

Superb. I can't believe this live performance sounds just like a studio recording, no mistakes & perfect audio. Perfect interpretation to my taste.

The Mozart music is without borders. Consequently, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composer lifestyle and his music intellectual, had contributed to the worldwide entertainment industry and continues influenced to the human with love peaceful solutions. Moreover, even throughout the conflicts between war and peace years, over the past three centuries after his death.

What a great example of this type of music visually, compositionally and auditorily. Well done! Especially to the performers.

This is great! The best record of this piece I've never heard! Beautiful phrasings of all instruments😍

I feel my entangled and stiffed mind is being unraveled and clarified by this exquisite music. My headache was gone and my mind got calmed down and peaced, this music functions like a meditation as well as a mind massage. Unspeakable magic, thanks!!

This is now my favorite recording for the rest of Eternity! The cellist is magnificent! What a perfect blend of individuality AND cohesion! MAGNIFICENT.

Exquisite performance! My hats off to the trio. Great audio recording! Mozart was born in 1756 and died at the ripe age of only 35. This music is from Classical Period, that lasted approximately from 1750 to 1830, this is the period in which also lived Beethoven and other greats like Schubert. Their music was a new style of development, a huge turn from the contrapuntal style of Bach, Telemann and others of the Baroque Age, that lasted approximately from 1600 to 1750. Listening to it in Kathmandu! Thank you for the post!

Talk about passionate players! That's exactly what the Classical Music World needs more of - bravo :-) Oh, did I mention excellent string tone..... :-)

This wonderful piece, paired with its clear soundscape and gifted performers makes for such a pleasant atmosphere that instantly calms the mind.

Fantastic performance of this gem from Mozart. The genius if the man never ceases to amaze me. My thanks to these three wonderful musicians for this gorgeous tribute! Merci mille fois!

I have never heard so perfect sounding, unbelievable. Superb performance, nice people, who amuse themselves and us. And what a nice surrounding! God blessed moments!

Una delle composizioni d camera piu' straordinarie che siano mai state scritte, W.A.Mozart e' insuperabile, bravissimi gli interpreti.

J'aurais voulu être au premier rang des spectateurs, quel régal!

Obra fantástica y fantástica interpretación del trío. Y orgulloso de que Gabetta sea Argentina. Bravoooo!!!

I can't recall the last time I've heard such fine playing!

I found the heaven ,my heaven to listen Mozart music's always and till the death.

I know, 5 years hence, but still so, so, beautifully performed !!!! Thanks to ALL !!!!

I am always amazed that, while playing with such skill, virtuosity, feeling, and consideration for the other players, Amihai Grosz also enjoys all the music, even when he's not playing. And he (and the others, of course) give us all so very much pleasure!

Splendida esecuzione. Bravissimi tutti e tre. Oserei dire più coinvolgente di quelle del trio Grumiaux e del Trio italiano d'archi. Soprattutto per la qualità tecnica della registrazione e della ripresa. Sono un maniaco di questo brano di Mozart, che personalmente reputo la sua composizione più bella. L'ascolterei all'infinito.

¡Exquisita interpretación! ¡Me encanta escuchar y ver a Sol Gabetta!

Such beautiful playing from Ms Eberle, Ms Gabetta, and Mr Grosz! I’ve returned to this video many times and it only gets better!

The muses could rejoice in none the finer spouse of Mozart. Magnifico! His acolytes Veronica Eberle, Amihal Grosz, Sol Gabetta.

merveilleux Mozart, et (presque encore plus ?) merveilleux interprètes, toute la fougue et la précision sont au rendez-vous d'une musique profonde, allègre, cadencée, hum.... QUEL SUPERLATIF CHOISIR , TOUS !

너무 행복합니다 이렇게 편하게 집에서 침대에 누워서 이 아름다운 선률을 감상할수 있음에 더우기 이런 실내악 은 듣기 힘든데 나혼만의 공간에서 정말 행복 합니다. 정말 고맙습니다.

This is wonderful, I absolutely loved it! These three musicians played this flawlessly, with finesse, and I love how they are so connected making eye contact and even smiling, showing they love what they do. Great job!

❤❤все инструменты изумительны всё проникает вглубь души

И эта троица просто отменны как хорошо и прекрасны в своей бесподобной слаженности и в совершенстве❤ прелесть

the cello player is a work of art in her own right!

What is this? The 50th time I'm listening to three 3 wonderful musicians have their harmony/melodies intertwining with each other. Displaying all the dance effects desired at Mozart's time, including stateliness -- an effect not used in today's dances. It''s all so wonderful to hear!

Hats off to this wonderful and graceful performs for playing this performance

Bellissima esecuzione: grande equilibrio formale e trasporto emotivo, contemporaneamente presenti in un respiro lirico dolce e malinconico che pervada la composizione dalla prima all'ultima nota. Sono gli equilibri quasi impossibili di Mozart, che lo rendono un compositore divino, e per eseguirlo bisogna essere veramente bravi. Complimenti a tutto e tre gli esecutori. P.S. La prossima primavera Sol Gabetta viene a Roma, andrò sicuramente a vederla, la sua bravura mi ha conquistato !

The 1st movement allegro sounds like a group of friends in a joyous moment laughing together.

Deep emotion grew into my soul , and it was the time of supreme bliss .

This is an incredible performance. Bravo! One of Mozart's best.

That the viola can be used as such an integral part of the music is wonderful.

Magnífico Mozart!

sehr schöne Version, tolle Musiker, aber auch geil aufgenommen. Ein Hoch auf die Soundproducer !!!

Thank you musicians for playing in such a beautiful way this "wonderpiece" of our beloved Amadeus

Probablemente una de las mejores interpretaciones que he escuchado de este conocido "divertimento" mozartiano. Registro sonoro muy bueno.

Mozart has no equal in creating the greatest impact with no embellishment. Nothing is between your mind and the music. Written to directly engage perception. Beautiful recording of a great performance on a rather sonically challenging stage. ¡Bravísimo!

Phenomenal. The playing is superb. I don't believe I have heard this played or interpreted better. The recording is one of the best chamber recordings I have heard. The sound of the cello is quite amazing, an absolute pleasure to listen to. Amazing rendition. Extremely enjoyable.

Absolutely precious! Great ensamble , great playing. Beautiful church.

This string trio is regarded by Einstein the most beautiful and perfect example of chamber music written where the style perfection, instrument balance and a wide expression are the main trait we also found in Haydn Quartets and the Quintets K 515,516.Compliments are due to three soloists for their superb interpretation.In my Brilliant collection I have also an exceptional string trio who also made an unforgettable interpretation ie Francois Fernandez, Ryo Terakado and Rainer Zipperling. Bravi !!!

Eberle, Grosz e Gabetta se superam na interpretação desse divertimento. Destaque para Sol que, como quem não quer nada, sustenta a harmonia do trio o tempo todo. Parabéns pela lembrança e a todos os envolvidos!!!

This recording is a victory for humanity

素晴らしい名演！こんな演奏を目の前で聴いてみたい。これを生で聴いていた聴衆の皆様方は幸せものです。

There is almost as much pleasure in watching the interaction and sheer enjoyment of the players, as the sublime complexity and beauty of Mozart. Oh, how I wish I could play such music... 💕💕💕

beautiful piece, exquisite performance, and thank you to the sound engineers for such a clear, and balanced recording. lovely!

One of the true jewels of String Trio music beautifully played. Bravo! Bravo! Thank you for the video.

What a great piece of music and what a perfect execution. The title "Divertimento" may reflect Mozart´s sense of humor and shows his humbleness. In my opinion Mozart´s best work of chamber music for strings. Nowhere else he reached such an equal balance of all participating instruments.

Wonderful! And Sol's cello is extraordinary - a genuine jewel of an instrument, and one of the most eminent cellos anywhere.

Listening (& watching) over & over - cannot believe the sheer joyfulness at this level of excellence in music & players (& videography). Yes - the repellent placement of the necessary ads... Perhaps to remind us that we are not, during even so fine a performance, really somewhere in the heavenly realm. Certainly beyond "entertainment" (Divertirse! as w/ Don Giovanni). Thanks to all.

I totally love this trio! I agree with the compliments for the viola… it’s like at last the viola gets it’s own due and isn’t just there to be the rhythm backup for the prima donnas.

Sublime celestiale meravigliosa profonda sensibile opera composizione mozartiana. Concerto strumenti Archi.

Super Qualität für Spiel und Aufnahme. Danke. 😊

Why did I not know this music 60 years ago? Why is it reaching me only now?

that cello sound is incredible love it!!!!!

First of all, I was surprised at the goodness of the sound source. The clear and powerful strength of the cello is the smoothness of the violin and I feel very comfortable in combination.

Wonderful balance and elegance of playing

Elegant playful sensual Mozart musically defines divertimento a diversion impossible to ignore.

このトリオの演奏は素晴らしい.雑味のない清らかなアンサンブルが音の広がりを無限に高めて，高い音楽性と.研ぎ澄まされた感性が私の魂をわしづかみにして宇宙に連れ去られそうだ.感動！ベロニカエベ－レルをはじめ3人の今後のご活躍を期待します。

La qualité sonore de cet enregistrement est tout simplement étonnante...

My friend Jade said that the fourth movement, Andante, is so beautiful! You must listen and never forget it in your life.
