  • This is exactly why I refuse to believe those who say that pure or good music is dead. It never dies, it goes through generations and keeps killing people by its sheer beauty.

  • @scopitoneful Absolutely all right

  • Actually, you'll find that Bach uses the term Cembalo, which, in his time was a loosely used generic term and could mean one of several stringed keyboard instruments. Being that the harpsichord was the choice keyboard for chamber music in Bach's time, it IS very likely that the concerti were intended to be played on the harpsichord, however were not relegated to it specifically.

  • il Largo è qualcosa che riguarda il Paradiso più che la Terra.

    Largo is something concerning Heaven more than Earth.

  • A Genius playing another Genius ..... My favourite composer , my favourite pianist , my favourite concerto . Another splandid performance is by Bashkirov

  • @KennYWooD2 Handel also used the Cembalo sometimes, although he was partial to it. He used it in his oratorio Joshua for example. But you don't hear of the instrument much.

  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY GLENN GOULD

  • Gould's Family Background was Hungarian, he is a full Canadian and was proud of it.

  • @scopitoneful One can always choose between beauty and crap... it's a matter of taste...

  • @chobrocoli 10 non-Canadian people are being pricks, willingly or unwillingly. ;)

    Well, he's obviously not Russian if that's what you mean. :s

  • OMG! Bach + Gould + Piano = inexpressible! :-0

  • Especially his rendering of the second movement is beautiful.

    

  • that ornament at 00:48 could kills me..
