Maria Yudina, the shadow of Glenn.

@GBADCD

Glenn Gould hasn't appeared from nothing... He may be went farther then Yudina in some respect, but it doesn't put her under his "shadow".

[Ruchfun]

Truecrypt,what do you think about Gould's variations? There are many different views

about this artist:some critics call him a genius,others says he was just a well-produced propaganda.How can existe two opposite and conflicting assessment?Do you prefere Youdina,as interpretation and tecnique?

If yes,Why?

A greeting:)

Gould's variation (especially 1955 recording) is an epochal event! I remember my first impression of his playing - nothing short of revelation. Gould's art is strongly individualistic and as such it brings up polarizing opinions. I don't prefer Yudina... or Gould... or Landowska... they help me to see this creation from different points of view. Strangely enough, just yesterday I was thinking about possibility to play it not as a super-human artifact, but as an "intimate" piece of music...

P.P.S. Also thank you Goldberg

We should also thank Count Kaiserling for his migrain headache and generosity! ;)

"This kind of Bach playing would fail at most conservatorys " - funny, because Josef Hoffman, Moiseiewitsch, Gould, and many other great pianist would have never been able to graduate from any respectable conservatory today. And yet their performances are most listened to and admired today.

I've been getting to know Yudina's fascinating playing through UTube and have looking forward to this Bach. It is so balletic. Is there any possibility of a copy with better sound quality. What is the provenance of this recording?

[LestraJo]

Maria Yudina appartient a une autre génération que Glenn Gould, c'est une autre vision des choses, une autre école, il ne faut pas comparer...

[maeleong2000]

Yudina's interpretation of this piece is very rich, expressive, and full of feelings. I like the mono sound too...

[GBADCD]

@truecrypt I think it was this interpretation of Yudina "Goldberg Variations", who circulated by the West on tape making the delight of music lovers. She and Gould are the two greatest interpreters of Bach. When he made a tour to Russia, was Yudina greet him.
