  • Keith Jarrett is a marvelous musician and excellent keyboard player in many styles, but as far as I am concerned KJ should HEARD and not SEEN.

    This P&F is rarely performed. Landowska wrote that the fugue was "belligerent and terrifying." Her recording comes across that way. I'd love to hear it again. This is very much more straightforward.

    I wish KJ had recorded it also on the piano. He could - and he should. Each of those instruments has expressive qualities of its own that should be heard.

  • He could, he should and he did.

  • Keith Jarrett is Keith Jarrett like Bach is Bach !

  • Funny picture. Why? This is an harpsichord ? Perhaps a violin?

  • @FuzzyCigarDude who are you than if he is a slob?)))) infusorian?))))

  • Bach is Bach, like God is God"Hector Berlioz

  • @jjwalking ..Hoping that the smell of fart can wake your brain. In stead of waiting for Keith to fart, why don't listen to his playing.. you might learn something. hahaha!

  • @FuzzyCigarDude

    that is a very profound response coming from an intelligent man

  • @pischnaholic

    Landowska once said that Bach should be played on hapsichord only-NOT TRUE

    Landowska said that this fugue is agressive and terrifying...what an "emotional "statement

    the fugue shows unprecedented combination of subject/contrasubject manipulation and there is a wonderful progression towards the culmination at the end of the work-to say that it is aggressive and terrifying is really stupid and unprofessional

    now,was that better for you?

  • @Pischnaholic

    it seems to me that Landowska said many stupid things in her life

  • He looks like he is farting on that pic !!! why ?
