No es BMV, sino BWV!!.

Genial...

Wow, haven't heard this in OVER 40 years. I bought the big boxed set in 1967 and literally wore it out listening to it thousands of times. Loussier has had a great run, both as performer and composer, and we always catch him in the very rare personal appearance in Southern California. A unique voice and visionary he is. Thanks for posting Kosomot ! Hmmmmmm, nice listening . . . . = )

Bin durch Zufall heute Abend beim Zappen im TV auf eine Sendung vom Burghausener Jazzfestival 2007 auf das Jacques Loussier Trio gekommen

,WOW!!!!!!! das hat mir völlig neue Eindrücke in meiner musikalischen Betrachtung von Bach bzw.Jazz beschert.

Dank Yuotube kann ich mich damit nun intensiver befassen. Ich bin absolut von dieser Art der Interpretation begeistert ! Absolut Geniale Musiker . Danke fürs Hochladen und Danke Youtube ! GLG Jörg Schlimbach Maintal / Germany

This is the perfect marriage of great classical music and great jazz, transcending both genres to produce magic

@wedontwanttheloonies ~ I am delighted to hear that ~ and thank you for letting me know ;o)

Ditto - we do exactly the same in our house - ie play the first time classical then jazzed up and at twice or three times the speed ever since saw Jacques Loussier and his trio do this in Nottingham around in 1974 or 75.

Jacques is an alien from another galaxy who is here on our planet to teach us how to jazz like a god! I love playbach

[ThePhlea]

@Paiste01 I totally do not agree with this.

In my opinion this ist just another interpretation of Bach, a modern(?) one indeed.

I like it a lot, because I'd love to understand Bach but I simply can't because the only music I tend to understand is Jazz.

Loussier is helping me with this issue and opens my mind for Bach and the other componists.

I don't think this is the definition of rape ;)

[mmbmbmbmb]

I used to own all (4?) records many, many moons ago ... but even now ~ whenever I play this on the piano I start out strictly classical ~ and after the last chord ~ I always jazz it up for the second run. It is just so suited for this variation. Thanks Jacques Loussier for the inspiration ;o)

[Paiste01]

He is raping Bach. These might be fantastic musicians but they make Bach sound terrible. They should just stick with jazz.

[cwwiss1]

greatest Jazz musician of all time in my opinion

@MagnusFogg yes you are right
