@WelshSaddler Feltsmann often does the same kind of improvization, i.e. Bach;s 2nd Partita. It adds a personal touch, is in good taste, and Bach would have certainly enjoyed hearing such spontaneous musicianship; I always contended Bach was the first "Jazz musician" (improvisor).

One of my favourite pianists. I put him in my top 5 list along Richter, Gould etc... But this particular concerto, I can't get out of my mind the perfection of the phrasing of Glenn Gould.

@markarama23 Thank you for referring to the 6:39 to 7:01 section. It really helps to have focus points when listening to something this big.

And of course thank you Bach!!!

thank you to those who pointed out to this incredible decrescendo Lipatti makes. It's so difficult to make a decrescendo on such a large span of time, of bars! Lipatti made it beautiful! I was listening to the music following the score at the same time, and indeed Lipatti makes this decrescendo bar by bar, on its whole course, never maintaing a same level of nuance but permanently diminuing it. Beautiful!
I can't praise Lipatti highly enough - a truly great artist. I do find it interesting that in his "live performances" he sometimes took liberties with the score though, here he inserts loads of arpeggios an octave or two above Bach's writing!! (He did much the same in the Chopin PC No. 1). It doesn't detract from the enjoyment however, it adds to it. Markarama's comment about the decescendo is spot on, it sounds as though Lipatti is physically moving away from the hall!!
Dinu, never equalled.
