  • ZOMG THAT PIANO IS SEXY.

    I mean, uh, very ingenious interpretation.

  • Oh, what a wonderful sound! This is the most colorful Bach I have ever heard, goes beyond Richter's meditative WTC and brings novelty. There is so much tenderness in Gavrilov's Bach, he shows us a colorful, sensuous and yet serious Bach, who is not any more a 'Baroque' composer but eternal. Gavrilov is one of our greatest pianists, and even more so, one of our greatest musicians!

  • @z1Amii "So yesterday, that is, Tuesday evening at 7, in the

    Imperial-and-Royal Opera House I made my entry into the world! . . . My

    friends and colleagues spread themselves through the hall to listen to

    opinions and criticisms. Tselinski can tell you how little

    fault-finding there was; only Hube overheard more. Some lady said: 'Too

    bad the young man is so poorly dressed.' If that is all the fault

    anybody found . . . then I have no need to worry!" --F. Chopin

  • Andrei Gavrilov is the best musican we have - in my opinion. The extraordinary is that he can play great Bach, Mozart, Rachmaninoff, Beethoven, Scriabin and many more. And you always can hear: intelligence and heart is a great combination for a musician.

    This recording production was not quite satisfying Andrei told me, 'cause BBC did a good beginning but in ongoing work it was some kind of wired and inconsequential. But anyway: great interpretation of Gavrilovs part!!!

  • @Margotbear

    U are right,

    is not probably,

    its a fact,

    "for the Glory of God and the Joy of men"

  • Beautiful interpretation! Just find the glassess odd and distracting... :P

  • I think he would take a different approach after listening to this analysis.

  • In each divinity we shall not grasp the meaning of the inner thoughts of ultimate peak of art. I am me, myself who could not understand an amazing feat of powerr. The lament and philosphy from this fugue holds too much emotions in my heart, i could not explain with words. This is J.S Bach we're talking about, this fugue, yes this fugue is an music/harmony created from his mind to define logic.

  • Beaucoup d'artistes oublient que leurs subtilités d'interprétation,de vision subjective,de raffinement intellectuel, s'adressent à des auditeurs qui paient des impôts et trouvent l'essence chère,et veulent simplement être touchés par la musique....rien d'autre....

    Ce n'est pas un hasard si la musique classique n'est pas plus recherchée.
