Before Uber exists, I kept schedule playing a concert in Köln/Germany. When I informed the taxi driver of his fate, he asked me ... Do you know that German President Walter Scheel will attend? I said, how much joy to meet your president... Coolest thing I've related to Taxi and life in general.

@christluth 3 года назад

the best interpretation of this great bach's work adapted by Liszt.Svetla Protich plays with her heart. This isn't piano but 100%music. I'm a lutanist and crazy about how she treats the prelude, openly, trying to render the majesty of the organ. The fugue is absolutely fantastic ! I keep the MP3 in my phone to get it next to me. Thousand thanks for all your admirers. A great lady for a great piano !

This subject is everything. Such a genius use of the surrounding E5/B5 chord. Bach has the ultimate talent for turning complex emotions into simple little phrases that use the most genius and emotionally profound intervals. Master of rhythm/timing aswell as the actual notes used. Just has a power that no-one else has harnessed before or since. It's so expressive; I really get a deep sadness from this one, but as is with most Bach pieces, there's still that energetic hope and recognition of divine beauty that underpins most of his work. You hear it in every note and every interval.

@sedumjp 10 лет назад

This is one of Bach's greatest organ works (of which there are so many), but it demonstrates perfectly that Bach was a pure composer, in that the the music he wrote floated free of any particular instrument. It is pure music which can be realised in so many different ways. By the Tim Bach was writing the art of the fugue he had stopped indicating any instruments at all, he simply wrote music. This quality of writing for no instrument means he writes for every instrument, and we are but midgets sitting listening to the tunes of a musical giant

Too many performers, and they are mostly organists because it's an organ work originally, treat this music as a vehicle for them to demonstrate their brilliant technique and they play it far too fast. This performance is superb and to my mind captures all that Bach might have wished to communicate. Thank you for making it available. I wish we could hear more from this wonderfully inspired lady.

@ZL54JK8 2 года назад

@@RickT72267 My original comment stated that some performers used this piece as a vehicle for them to demonstrate their brilliant technique, for example by playing it very fast. That is not the same as saying that the piece itself is a dramatic display of technique. It is not. The original organ work is not unduly difficult to play. Certainly transforming it into a piano arrangement allows for it to be made as spectacularly impressive as the arranger chooses, and whatever Liszt may or may not have done with it is neither here not there. This wonderful performance by Svetla Protich is all about Bach, not Liszt.

Practically -- any or every kind (of "video productions"). --- This is Music! -- Where do you see any connection between this fuga and prelude -- and the f... setting?! A very recognized way of desecration...

I believe the connection is that the venue Protich is sitting in is the room in which she played the piece. You can easily fixing the problem of there being video by only listening to the music and not watching the video.

Off course. --- I was only "amusing" this my "favorite" piece in this very slow manner -- and have become aware (once again) how every cameraman's doing is against all and every kind of real value artistic -- or human at all... So I made my my sarcastic comment.... "...the room in which she played the piece." --- I would have really liked to watch it --- and was really going to do that.... (Are you some kind of camera fan?) (What the cameraman does is absolutely against what you say. The viewer is forced (against his will) to follow the movement of the camera etc.)

Gould never recorded any of the Bach Organ transcriptions. Aside from not being directly from the pen of Bach I think that his style of playing, low to the piano with tactile detached fingers, would not lend itself to the big full body resonance required of these pieces. Ms Protich brings that big romantic sound beautifully to these transcriptions. Bravo !

This sound is impresive, the knowlege of polifony is total, she is great, the tecnique in playing piano is not how fast you can play, but how pure is the sound, in this case the sound is pefect, you can follow each voice separlly. Bach made a joke about polifony, he said is like three or four ladies drinking tea, all of them speaks at tha same time, and the magic is that they understand each other perfectly.

A beautiful performance - structurally, technically, and most of all emotionally. Interesting that her fugue alone takes only slightly less time than Weissenberg's performance of both the prelude and fugue(!). Both are equally 'valid' and successful approaches to the piece, and help to illustrate the greatness of the source of their inspiration - Bach's original organ work.
