Truly a.privilege to listen to a pianist of Ekaterina Derzhavina 's calibre- they're a very rare breed. In my opinion one of the very best interpreter of JS Bach- and Rameau in particular.Magical!

So much musicality, such a vital tempo and so different! And let's be honest: one of the best interpretations I ever heard.

What can one say about this playing and music that wouldn't sound trite in comparison? Truly exemplary Bach from Derzhavina, as always! ...The variety and control she has over articulation is a marvel.

One of my favourite Bach pieces, both to play and to listen to. She is clearly a superb pianist, but personally the Prelude and Fugue are much, much too fast. Although, on the other hand, Bach really just provides the notes, almost as a challenge to make something of them, so there's no right or wrong.

I agree i think its really fast. Speed not everything. But anyway she handles the speed quiet good.

@frenchimp 4 жыл бұрын

I like the speed. The fugue sounds like one of those crazy gigues. It makes sense to me.

@skakdosmer 2 жыл бұрын

Bach was known for preferring fast tempi. And I love this! I always felt that lute players were playing this much too slowly. I can’t help feeling that this must be much closer to the composer’s intention. Or maybe even a little brisker …

I fear that if she hummed throughout nobody would have the nerve to even mention her decisions about tempi, let alone criticise them. The point is that the music emerges with crystalline clarity due to superhuman articulation, and brilliant use of the pedal. Personally it is one of my favourite bits of Bach keyboard playing on KZfaq and, frankly, I don't know anyone who plays Bach better on the "wrong" instrument.

@harley258 2 жыл бұрын

I assume you're referring to Glenn Gould - "hummed throughout". If anything, Gould has been notoriously critiqued for his decisions about tempi. Probably more than any other Bach interpreter.

She has recorded the French Suites and other Bach keyboard works on the Profil label; may have to get it from Germany. But if you subscribe to classicalarchives.com, which you should, only $80/yr, that 2-CD set is available for listening and/or downloading.

the performance is good but apart from the prelude and fuga being played too fast (I've heard play the gigue WAAAY TOO slow) the question is: why did she play the Double on the repeats?

На лютне так не сыграешь, это раз. Далее- темп есть основное выразительное средство. В таком темпе и прелюдия, и фуга - жалкая пародия на замысел композитора. Сарабанда- туда сюда. Жига с дублем тоже быстровато. Но, имея ввиду темпы первых частей, нужно играть ещë быстрее. И в этом случае будем иметь пародию на Bwv 997😂😂😂

Очень жаль, что многоуважаемая и почитаемая мной Екатерина не воспользовалась редакцией Копчевского, воспроизводящей реальное звучание лютневого оригинала. Издание баховского общества, как и редакция Иохелеса, почему-то, в вопросе регистровки пошли по пути наименьшего сопротивления: просто буквально воспроизвели нотацию рукописи

@rudyd8403 4 жыл бұрын

Virtuosity isn't everything. Feeling and understanding count more. Bach's beauty should not be glossed over so precipitately. She's another Gieseking. He also zipped thru the music to leave the others in the dust, losing much of it in the process (although his English Suite #6 is still fab). She needs to mature and - yes - stop showing off. I think in time she will and has every potential of becoming a great Bach interpreter.

@fredfeinberg3995 4 жыл бұрын

Couldn't agree less on this. She won the inaugural Bach competition, and is among the least show-offy pianists I've encountered, ever: she doesn't even play warhorse things like Islamey and Liszt Rhapsodies, only the highest-quality music, especially Bach and Schubert. The idea of her needing to "grow up" is frankly absurd; she is in her 50s and lauded all over the world for her refined control and balanced performances.

@dorfmanjones 3 жыл бұрын

Nonsense. She's an infinitely more sensitive and polished Bach player the Gieseking was. Moreover she's not playing the lute, and It can definitely be played faster on the piano.

@@dorfmanjones I dislike rating pianists generally speaking,but when listening to W.Gieseking's rendition of the English Suite 2 in A minor I sincerely feel a bit disappointed.I guess he's really projecting himself not only over the score but over musicality itself. This young lady is way more refined as far as I can see albeit I'd rather listening to her rendition of the same piece before comparing their approach to Bach.
