Everytime I hear Gymnopedie I picture slow and a bit somber kind of scenery but this rendition paints a more serene, sunlit day with the wind just right kind of mood lol if that makes sense...

Enjoying each show from Ray.. ❤❤ even just a normal video sharing how he played.

ray chen is the god of legato bowing

This is such a beautiful arrangement. I keep listening, over & again, being elevated higher. Why is this not more popular? So passing this on to other musicians and music lovers. Please come to San Francisco. Bay area needs to hear this.

He performed in sf last year! It was amazing!

100% saticfaction. I have never heard a string quartet this beautifull. Their is so much for me to learn as a amateur composer. This is so perfectst intense. It seriously Made me cry

That guy’s cello reverberates so freaking well, holy hell, and it’s definitely in great hands!!

Beautiful arrangement, so fresh, original and vital and written amazingly for the strings! And the performance...WOW!

I'm not familiar with this piece, so I'm not sure if the foot tapping is part of the score or not, but I love what it adds to this performance!

Foot tapping is to keep the tempo balanced and playing at the correct speed. It's like a metronome, but using your foot as a beat to prevent rushing. Or its part of the movements.

And yes, there is a chance that it could be part of the score, but over the many pieces I've seen, not one has foot tapping.

it is soo hard that Ray doesn't have to too keep tempo. sigh

Koncz's composition is a beautiful incorporation of cultures. The French theme is prevalent and true, the big octave chords are so brave and American, and I just love the quartal harmonies! If I could describe it in shorter words, I'd say that this was badass and cute :)

Much more than arrangement, this is a new composition

My favorite arrangement of my favorite piece of music. I'm a little obsessed - have to hear it every morning to start my day! Wonderful.

Qantas flight entertainment is currently offering Ray Chen's CD with this track. I listened to it repeatedly during a flight from Hong Kong to Brisbane, and now, a few hours later, on KZread. It is an extraordinary composition, one that leads the listener through many emotions, and these performers endow it with a vitality and purity that brought tears to my eyes. Satie would have loved it. Thank you Made in Berlin.

I too listened to Ray Chen’s The Golden Age CD repeatedly during the long-haul flights with Qantas. I hope Qantas never takes this CD off its Flight Entertainment.

I've been sleeping on this piece. I had no idea it sounded so magical.

This felt like an entire orchestra...not a quartet. Epic playing.

I went to the live performance in Eindhoven and I must say, it was absolutely brilliant. Highly reccomend anyone to go. Amihai does look a lot more relaxed in this video than he did at the concert. He had his feet really close together during the entire concert, but he played perfect.

Fantastic performance of a great new composition. I love that tonality has survived and pulled Modernism along with it into the future!

Never get tired of listening to this. It's the music that plays when it's time for my alarm to go off, lol

This has become one of my favorite pieces of music. Beautiful rendition and masterful execution. Bravo, gents!!!

This performance is so underrated and underappreciated on KZread

The tapping of the shoes for some reason sounds epic

those crescendos are so even im crying....

I love these gentlemen, their beautiful music and outstanding performance.

What a great performance! Thank you!

いつも寝る前に聴いてます😆 ホントに綺麗な音♪いつか生で聴きたい…。

I've been watching it over and over again love it!

Love the arrangement. Giving me a lot of hope and enlighten my day every day. The best ever.

Wow!! What a beautiful arrangement!!! Love the tremolos.🎻🎻❤

I love the playing and the arrangement ! This is totaly awesome !

Magical arrangement and stunning performance. Wow.

Just wonderful ! Thank you !

Sounds so lively and beautiful

Fantastic! Would love to see you guys live.

I LOVE this arrangement. IT really woke up the piece and made it ROCK!

my fav quartet piece ive ever seen... thank you koncz and ray

Absolutely beautiful arrangement - I love this piece so much, I've been listening to the track for a while on Spotify but was pleasantly surprised to see a live video :)

Wow I wish I can experience and feel the joy and satisfaction of playing perfect pieces alongside others.

Bravo - what an amazing and creative arrangement and brilliant performance with a lot of vitality and energy! Looking froward to hearing more from you guys.

Amazing composition, wow!! And played with such emotion. Bravo

Enjoyed it so much!!! Awesome arrangement 👍🏻 and played with genuine passion

One of my favorite videos. Beautiful!

This is a fantastic arrangement of one of my favorite composers. Fantastic job. Supremely fantastic job.

Thank you so much Ray, and crew. I really really enjoyed watching you all play with such passion and sensitivity too....and I really really love ❤️ the enjoyment you gave us all and yourselves!!!!!!! Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

I feel the original one seems that is about a winter and rainny day. This one seems is about a Summer sunny day, when the Sun starts to rise shy, and get strong with a colorful sky; there's a storm in the afternon, but ends with a still warm and gently sunset 🌅🧡

Wire stands. Probably took 2 hours to get the music to stay.

Absolutely wonderful arrangement! A gem! Gonna buy the album.

When Gymnopedie nr 1 sounds hopeful... Thank you. It's beautiful.

I overheard it on radio yesterday and instantly ran off to my room to grab my phone and shazam it :D Masterpiece!

Amazing piece of music! Stephan Koncz is brilliant!! Loved your concert at Chapman University! Hope your Made in Berlin CD come out soon!!!

From exquisite to exhilarating and back. Superlove!

Awesome. Two of my favorite violinists of our generation!

That is really awesome. Thanks!

Ray Chen ROCKS! The entire Quartet is awesome! That is a really cool arrangement, I love it! It really souncs great played as a "lusty waltz".

Just purchased the CD. At first because of the 'Waltzing Matilda', then I found out all pieces in the CD were gems. So precious. Keep my eyes on Ray's musical journey.

Okay, with you playing I'm eager to learn some new pieces and listen to more classical music only because you four sound faboulus together! Especially around 3:00 and 0:30 hit me right in my heart, beautiful

Super fun arrangement! Love it!

Love this! So glad to have seen you perform this with NCCO.

Es hermoso lo que hacen, ojalá y un día pueda tocar como ustedes, saludos desde CD México

Oh, what a gorgeous arrangement. And 03:11 is beautiful.

gonna practice 40 hrs a day for 40 years and I still won't be this good, Nya!

Amazing violist!!

Perfect musicians, beautiful music, handsome guys... what more do I need for a perfect satiesfied YT evening? Thanks for your performance!

Hermosa versión, divino el arreglo musical...belloooo...

Beautiful performance. They breathe fresh new life into an old overworked Satie piece.

I love this piece! It’s beautiful !😄

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ❤❤❤❤❤

Fantastic!

Awesome! please come to Malaysia with whole team !!!

I think Mr Satie would have LOVED this beautiful arrangement, fabulous!

Check out the harmonics on the viola! Yaaaassss!

Stephan Koncz is a talented arranger!!! Beautiful! 👍🏽♥️

agreed. It's sad the views have stagnated. Most comments are from 3-5 years ago. I listen to this all the time and I wish the KZread algorithm would start recommending it to other people

Can't help it at all. Ray is hands down sexiest artist alive for me. Skills, looks, he is cute, he is fun, he has it all. Amihai is pretty cool, too. Absolutely love this ❤ Listened to it first before watching the video and only then saw that was the viola part ... what a perfect quartett, great to watch them communicate

A stage full of greatness

the piece sounds like the beginning of a great adventure.

it's really beautiful.
