Me too

There was only Only one GG!

You've waited long enough for such an interpreter! Lucky us!

Oh Bach!! Welcome back... been a while. We missed you so much

u mad

100% one of the most heart wrenching pieces Bach ever composed.

This is certain ! Bach is a universal medicine. The greatest genius in arts of all times.

it's been two weeks, have you recovered?

@@cutiepiedim I haven’t fully recovered yet, but I’m much better now. My doctor says symptoms can last up to six months.

@@gabriellakiss1719 get well soon and I wish you the best!

@@cutiepiedim Thank you!

I hope you find many more reasons not to regret being here. Humans create so much drama, but there is beauty all around.

Charlotte Rose so does suffering....

C'est tellement bien formulé. Je suis carrément fascinée par cet artiste sans pareil. On ne peut s'empêcher d'admirer son génie tout au long de la pièce.

@@lorrainegauthier7574)! Так, восхититесь же гением Святослава Рихтера, непременно!

Everything - as is to be - is meant to be.

All the great and famous pianistes are totaly respectables, music is not a competition

C'est juste un nul. Richter vaut largement 3 de ces espèces de Gould qui ne sait à peine jouer comparé aux grands de ce monde :=)

1980s goldberg is better.

I like both recordings, they're very different :)

@@joelra3702 I agree. Both great recordings but I do prefer the 1955 one.

Prefer ? Better ? Simply Différent !

Hahaha hilarious

После Гульда, не хочется никого слушать из ранних и поздних, кто играет Баха, действительно Гульд совершил революционный прорыв в интерпретации, все звучит по- новому, цельно, прослушиваются все голоса и подголоски, все совершенство фуги, как Мендельсон нам открыл давно забытого Великого Баха, так Гульд вновь открыл нам новую артикуляцию, звук, туше, образ и раскрыл смыл опусов...

@@user-gh3it9fm4x совершенно верно 🔥

And nobody seems to realize how much he has done it

Can you explain why Gould’s Bach is so important? I don’t have the musical history background to understand

@@joshdraper56 It’s not Gould's Bach, it’s Gould's piano technique. It’s the sounds he produced which gave his interpretations an incuestionable seal of eternity. It’s something you experience, almost if not immediately. I felt that the first time I heard his interpretation of Bach's 2nd English Suite, which was also the first time I knew about Gould's existence.

@@joshdraper56 Entro yo a explicarte porqué es tan importante. lo primero que debes conocer es la característica de la música contrapuntística de la que J.S.Bach es la muestra creo más importante. La música no contrapuntística te produce emociones por sus melodías o por sus ritmos y la contrapuntística añade a esas causas la ejecución "stesso tempo" de dos melodías con un motivo nuevo por la sincronización de ambas melodías, es decir una nueva emoción añadida, resultado de algo que sólo gente que ha cultivado al música largo tiempo puede percibir en toda su profundiidad (Espero haber sido útil...)

My father was born one year before this version then.

3:02....not really.

@@49barcelona Really? One mistake. Really? wow

@@49barcelona It is! Glenn? A pure genius!

And his left hand has a life of it’s own! He always watches it to make sure it doesn’t get “out of line!”☺️

That's theme of this song ... Moebius / Time = Forever Different "Divine Comedie" hell purgatory paradise Forever 🤔

@@HommeTerre what are you talking about? Allegro in #7 concerto is such a fantastic piece , fresh breath of life litteraly

Con 60 años y habiendo cultivado toda la vida la música, caminaba una tanto bajo de evocación y capacidad de emoción hasta que oí a este intérprete que rescató mi capacidad de emoción percibiendo con nitidez el colorido de la interpretación parcial de cada bloque melódico, perfectamente sincronizado con los otros para mayor gloria y pleno colorido del conjunto. Un prodigio de sincronización. Ahora tengo 81 "calendarios" y me "chuto" con J.S.Bach

Если вы об этом концерте то - да, лучше Гульда его не сыграет никто. Но наследие Баха очень велико и многогранно и есть несколько великих пианистов, которые сыграют Баха как минимум не хуже.

⁠@@alexoidbushuyevich8818 не в лом дело что коооо лучше или хуже - тут просто другое восприятие и ощущение Баха. У Гклда какая то другая связь с Бахомм. Другое понимание.

I agree. I had conversation with someone about Glenn playing or not playing the Piano instead of Harpsichord, etc, etc. I think the Piano, the way Glenn plays it, in his hands, it is even better, and the way you can hear the full bass lines, the different voices, parts, it is great, poetical, and the mood he expresses, in Bach Fugues, or any tune he wrote, gives to me the idea , the feeling was just the Bach intending to feel, if I made meself clear.

I would put Karl Richter as one of those THE Bach interpreters

Надо искать и наслаждаться всеми записями)))

Вы совершенно правы, это современное болтание совсем не подходит. У Гульда Бах простой и строгий...гениально !

вы жили в эпоху барокко?)) Откуда у вас такие сведения? Каждый исполнитель по своему играет и чувствует музыку.И никто никогда не узнает,как сам Бах играл свой композиций.

Бах играл на инструменте ударно-щипкового звукоизвлечения. Звук был резче и бедней по динамическим оттенкам. Звук, извлекаемый из современного ф-но в тысячу раз богаче. Но главное, что тем же "ударным" звуком он играет и более поздних классиков. Что-то воспринимается, что-то нет. Но, встав на свою колею, Гульд уже не мог с неё сойти. Рекомендую послушать, как он играет 30-ю сонату Бетховена "для себя" и - "на запись". Во-многом он погубил себя.

Интересно, вы, с вашим догматизмом, как к педализации в клавирном Бахе относитесь? Да и не пользоваться всеми динамическими возможностями фортепиано откровенно преступно, когда буквально нотный текст модуляциями, сменами ступеней, движением мелодии где угодно, требует динамического разнообразия. Про сложнейшую задачу разделения голосов вообще молчу.

Абсолютно верно! Absolutely true

Gould does not play for himself, just as he does not play for others. He absorbs himself into the music and absorbs the music into his being, so that the music manifests THROUGH him.

@@caprolupo8321 One could also blasphemously say that Bach plays Gould when Gould actually plays Bach.

And God.

@@alexandervonkarnstein God plays Bach through Gould by transitivity. Bach's entire being was devoted to expressing the divine after all.

Absolutely. He is omniscient in his interpretation and understanding of the music.

That's not what makes him amazing. Most decent pianists don't need scores even for much more complex music than this. What makes Gould amazing for me is how he understands the music, combines intellect with physicality, and reveals the unity and large scale architecture of the music to the point where it feels almost as though he plays the entire piece in a single breath.

We are in front of two geniuses. The very best is the Composer, the second ond is Glenn!

There's no andante quite like this one.

I would say Bach is the Genius here.

bar drama Glenn Gould is a genius in his own right. He had mastered the Well Tempered Clavier by the age of 10, which I would say is definitely genius.

@@beethovenlovedmozart both of them, of course

If he's the genius here , then search another word to describe BACH.

Kasputin Is a new bach

Yes you can see this kind of emotionalism within a strict structure influence many of Mozart's piano concertos later.

Never! never! He,s still the unreacheble pianist!

For me, one of the outstanding characteristics of his playing is an almost metronome perfection. I love every piece of his that I can hear. Thanks so much for the person who put these pieces where we can enjoy them in our homes.

@Craig Johnson I have to agree. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtJlpLydvau5pH0.html

@@ladykiri42 The "metronome perfection" is a defect. It is wooden and mechanical. Listen to Richter's version. Richter is in a dialog with the orchestra. He is so much more expressive and interesting. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtJlpLydvau5pH0.html

@@Carvin0 (1) Craig Johnson referred to Karl Richter, not Sviatoslav Richter. (2) Sviatoslav Richter's performance is sloppy, not passionate. Gould uses no pedal. Sviatoslav Richter hides his sloppiness, and adds more sloppiness, with pedal. (3) Karl Richter performs the concerto with harpsichord, rather slowly, as Gould does. Unlike Sviatoslav Richter's sloppy, muddy performance, Karl Richter's performance is clear, clean - exquisitely PRECISE - partly because his instrument is a harpsichord. Unlike Gould, Karl Richter slides VERY, VERY SLIGHTLY away from "metronome perfection," but only as surely Bach did, because Bach was a creature of the baroque.

Ok

à mon avis il y a une autre intérprete qui parle à Dieu en jouant Bach. C'est Polina Ossetinskaya.

And Glenn Gould 1932-1982

And Vladimir Golschmann - 1893-1972

I’ll take genius polymath Canadian musicians for $1200 please.

Really? Wow. I bought this in cd bk in early 90s and loved it ever since.

Людмила это не чудо. Это от бога. Когда слушаешь исполнение И. С. Баха Гленом Гульдом все теперешние ужасы и страхи исчезают и ты испытываешь чувство величайшего счастья

Sei cultrice del bello, della vita, di tutto il grande universo di sentimenti che la musica bachiana può suscitare. Ben lo sapeva il grande Kantor, Che affermò a chiare lettere che la musica deve servire per gloria a Dio e per il puro diletto dello spirito

"Runs itself" LOL I like that. Just wind it up and let it go!
