Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieses perfekt komponierten Tastenwerks im veränderlchen Tempo mit klarem doch elegantem Klang des technisch fehlerlosen Cembalos und mit perfekt kalkulierter Dynamik. Wahrlich intelligenter und talentierter Cembalist!
Приятное своей ясностью и душевным спокойствием исполнение. Есть движение и ощущение развития, эмоции "работают" - но нет спешки и суеты. Благородное исполнение. Спасибо!
One of my favorite. The melody is so modern ... But I prefer it with a solid and swingy rhythm, like Michele Legrand in the 1st album of the Swingle Swingers. And this incredible bass line !
I have a difficult time believing the sinfonia and capriccio were written by a human mind with a human hand. I have no doubt that God was playing through Bach.
"If one does not have a Maezel's metronome at hand, he must remember that the allegro of these old compositions were felt much slower than that of modern ones." Carl Czerny, in his edition of the Well tempered, Clavier Book 1
@LearnCompositionOnline , tbh, tempo is not everything. He plays it very expressive and shows his great technique of which many other keyboard players are just able of dreaming of, IMHO.
Historically, the baroque dance movements like the allemande and courante were played in slower tempi as they were literally meant to be danced but they eventually fell out of popularity and keyboardists had the liberty to play everything faster than what was traditional. People are just used to hearing gould or argerich play everything at like 39371346 bpm. I think he made some very conscious choices with each movement tempo. His stylization, articulation, and embellishments are very tasteful, imo
