  • I met Gulda when he was giving a spntaneous concert in the hotel where I was staying to baptize the new grand piano that had just arrived. He was brillinat. I was sat next to his wife in the first row and the tremendous energy of his performance just kept pouring in my direction. I met him afterwards during the dinner and he was such a lovely passionate person. It felt strange that his hands should do profane things like cutting food on the plate. He will be dearly missed - hopefully forever!

  • unfortunatelly he died so long ago :(

    but true, he was a real genius and a true artist. I was in the concert hall when he has given a mozart concert and he start to play weird notes, not even melodies for more then 40 minutes. half the hall was leaving and THEN he started with the real concert. and it was BRILLIANT!!!

  • wonderful!

  • @DreynHarry And why do that???? Thats brilliant?

  • If you take away one note, the entire composition will fall apart. Ever since my childhood I have had a direct connection with Bach's music; Its purity, its beauty and melancholy. One can summarize his music in one sentence and would be: It is life itself. Listening to Gulda's sensitive touch and Bach's contrapuntal technique makes me view life in another way. A sense of nostalgia washes over me; It takes me back in time when life was so much easier, so much simpler, yet so beautiful.

    TY Bach.

  • SUBLIME. SALUDOS DESDE MONTERREY MEXICO, GRACIAS BACH

  • This is one of my favorite clips. So simple and so pure. It's magical.

  • I discovered Gulda when I was too young to understand music, in the 60`s my father had an LP with only Gulda. I listened to it time after time, and it was a true delight to me, even being a child, his touch was breath taking

    Thanks for posting !

  • Bach played in a romantic way. Great! Gulda plays Jazz. You must see him praising Chick Corea on this same show. Chick is playing so fine that Gulda abandon stage...

  • @Ischi71 u should have fed him like he fed you with his music

  • che magnifica interpretazione...si sente il sentimento..

  • Not just a man playing the piano, is the beauty, the feeling and the man in a spiritual way.
