BWV 812 813 814 815 816 817
The French Suites, BWV 812--817, are six suites which Johann Sebastian Bach wrote for the clavier (harpsichord or clavichord) between the years of 1722 and 1725. The suites were later given the name 'French' (first recorded usage by Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg in 1762) as a means of contrast with the English Suites (whose title is likewise a later appellation). The name was popularised by Bach's biographer Johann Nikolaus Forkel, who wrote in his 1802 biography of Bach, "One usually calls them French Suites because they are written in the French manner." This claim, however, is inaccurate: like Bach's other suites, they follow a largely Italian convention.
There is no surviving definitive manuscript of these suites, and ornamentation varies both in type and in degree across manuscripts.

Thank you.
Thanks mate love you so much for the effort you put in
omg ... thx
Lvke Chen Thanks 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you.
Schiff wanders through the landscape of Bach's music in a state of sheer delight, familiarity and wonderment. His joy transcends all other thoughts as he is engulfed by Bach's magic and he communicates it to us without a trace of self-consciousness. No musician can do more.
Que dire quand on entend autant de beauté, avec une maîtrise parfaite du toucher , de la musicalité dans le récit que le divin Maître Bach nous fait du monde de l'Esprit . Andras Schiff nous met dans une joie profonde . Merci à ces êtres exceptionnels .
The fact this video has nearly 5 million views makes me feel relieved that people can still appreciate real music and a top quality performance when they hear it.
Yeah but on the other hand it's since 2012 :(

Classical music isn't exclusive to professional musicians or music aficionados; it's for everyone. It can create a state of mind, stimulate creativity, and infuse beauty and art into our daily lives.
I had never even heard of Andras Schiff before last week. I saw the video of him playing the English Suites, and now, the French Suites. He plays them from memory, in front of live audiences. He is perfect, almost like he is Bach making them up on the spot. - youtube is good for something. Saving these amaaaing performancds almost redeems them in my eyes.
Andreas Schiff once said during an interview that he always starts every day by first playing a piece of Bach’s music regardless of whatever else he’s professionally required to perform. It says a lot about his regard for Bach but also explains why he plays so effortlessly with deep emotion and precision. We the audience are the beneficiaries of his devotion. Thanks Andreas.
As did Casals.

Sir Andras Schiff deserves at least 1hour and a half of ininterrupted applause for this magnificent performance.
Oklaski na stojąco!👏👏👏👏👏👏
1 hr 20m of Bachs music, played by memory without missing a single note. Perfect Performance!
Asperger's?
He practiced for 50 years.
He’s one of the greatest pianists alive today. A real gem. How anyone can memorize so much music is beyond me.
He missed a few notes, but he knows how to cover it...
@@AmericasChoicethere arent barely any pianist that dont miss a few notes in a 1.5 hours recital
Let me just remind us what an enormous musical capacity Andras Schiff really is: He actually plays the French Suites, English Suites, WTC (both book 1 & 2) and the Goldberg Variations + + ....all by memory. Deep Respect
how many hours practiced there I wonder
@@SirJosephSanchez We are not talking hours I’m afraid. To get to Andras Schiff’s levels of musicianship doesn’t take hours, it takes several decades.
@@theclaverman Absolutely! Years!
And the 6 partitas and 6 keyboard concertos...it's unbelievable
I agree with everything you wrote, but to me it's incredible that this is only scratching the surface. As others wrote in the replies, the partitas, concerti, the french overture, italian concerto, two part inventions and sinfonias, I think i remember seeing him play the toccatas on spotify. Basically he played all of music by Bach. He might have omitted some much lesser known works, but I doubt there are many. And then... complete Mozart sonatas and many concerti, many Haydn sonatas and concerti, all Beethoven sonatas (I think there are a few violin sonatas as well, if not all) and concerti and other works of all of the classical trio composers works like variations. Most of Schubert sonatas, Impromtus, moments musicaux, wanderer, four hand pieces, songs, Chopin preludes, some etudes, i think he recorded the 2nd concerto, I know there are recordings of him performing first two ballades and scherzi (the only recording of him I can remember not liking very much), all important Schumann works, a lot of Brahms, both concerti, clarinet sonatas and many other works, Janacek, Bartok, a lot of chamber music. And conducting. He is out of this world. Whenever I study a new piece I check if there is a Schiff recording, and usually there is unless its russian or impressionist music.
Anyone who has performed Bach to a live audience understands the terror and wonder of this man getting up and, not only nailing them, but doing so without any visible apprehension and with such artistic grace.
My cats lie silent, just mesmerized by the beauty of Bach's music and Schiff's playing.
Dearest Bootee passed away on 10.14.20. Andras, thank you for the peace you gave him with this performance. Words cannot express how I am grieving....
@@rachs57 So sad to read this. I hope you derive some consolation from knowing he enjoyed Bach. Cats are indeed superior creatures! Merry Catmas!
@@rachs57 My cat used to come and sit listening to me playing Bach. I was certain he was enjoying it. I was devastated when he died so I understand how you feel. Bach’s miraculous and beautiful music helped me; it tells me that our cats are still somewhere in the infinite cosmos, happy and mesmerised by these beautiful rhythms and harmonies.
Miauuuu
András Schiff. Together with J S Bach, my greatest musical hero. Schiff is testament to what love, extremely hard work, education and dedication can accomplish. Bach would have adored him.
Bach’s keyboard music may not be as overtly flashy technically as that of say Rachmaninov or Liszt. But it is SO much more difficult to perform! With Bach, there is no where to hide. You can’t connect the various contrapuntal lines by just blurring it all together with the use of the sostenuto pedal, the way many pianists do with piano music of the Romantic era. With Bach you really can’t use the sostenuto pedal at all, as is the case with Schiff’s brilliant performances here. He’s creating smooth legato lines by using enormously complex fingering. And yet he makes it all sound so effortlessly beautiful! This is but one of the many reasons why Schiff is among the greatest of Bach keyboard performers of all time. I have major respect and admiration for this man. He has always been a source of enormous inspiration for me as a pianist. 🙏
As this man plays for 1hr 22mins in some form of musical trance...….the brilliance of humanity is revealed...….I am in awe.
What a prodigious feat of memory!
@@martinpooley3944 Agreed: this is stunning. and we thought Gould was good !
Jewish*
@@rokkopg2414 Horowitz apparently said all great pianists are Jewish or homosexual (or both)!
I think he also played the Italian Concerto and the French Overture on that same day. So, easily 2 hours.
This is from the "Bachfest" where he played on 09 June 2010 in the Nikolaikirche (St Nicolas Church) in Leipzig, Germany. I had the privilege to be there. Will never forget his marvelous playing.
Ok
Bj Coch Thank you for the details of this performance.
You're so lucky!!!!!!!
Wonderful. I suffer from a stroke , gives me the will to live , to hear such sublimely. Beautiful music by the genius of harmony J, S. Bach I will survive if I can continue to listen Mike
His Bach is No.1 in the world! I did herer H.Walch Landofsca S.Richter G/Gould M.J.Pilish old time by Record. I losted the big last chance hering his concert at my town in Japan Bach Mozart Beethoven Shubert Chopan is the bigTreasure in the Human race !
Get better soon! Bach reboots the brain, it helps me order my thoughts-circuits, neurons, random impulses settle into tranquillity and efficiency. May this great music do the same for you! Merry Christmas!
May God grant you good health and long life my brother.
@@askbrettmanning nice to see my vocal coach shares a love of bach 🙏🏻
I have had a stroke also...may this profound piece of art bring you peace ☝️👍
Sir Schiff is really present for all of us, his parents survived during Holocaust , God, thank you for so brilliant present for all of us, with love from New Jersey, USA
What a phenomenon - beyond our understanding, but so be it - that our awareness, our understanding of Bach's music keeps evolving. I loved listening years ago to Rosalyn Tureck, then fell head over heels with Glenn Gould. Since I heard him in his New York Debut at the Grace Rainey Rogers auditorium, I have been amazed at every moment that Andras Schiff has shared with us his Bach, and the amazing part of all this is that his interpretations keep evolving. What we were grateful years ago, is even more of a gift today.
Listening to this great musician bringing us Bach is the deepest spiritual experience. Just try listening to the September 7th WTC from Royal Albert Hall. God bless you Andras.
I listen to this frequently. Both the composer and performer are fabulous. How lucky we are to be alive and appreciate beauty.
That's wright! Wonderful!
Leonor Yarhi
It's a shame we have to listen to it on youtube because the audio compression is awful
Johnny Utah: You don't HAVE to. There's a lot of other ways.
tell us, we want to know ;-)
As with Schiff's live performance of the English Suites, I am in complete awe of his musicianship. His sense of the inner pulse of the music, his balancing of voices and his ability to make us grasp the structure of these works is without parallel. That he is able to do all this from memory only underscores how utterly Schiff inhabits these magnificent works. Bach's music never fails to exemplify the sense of balance, joy, and nuance to which every life should aspire.
I completely agree. His talks from the keyboard astonish me. I love Bach for beginners. Schiff’s depth of understanding is match by his skillful playing. It all appears effortless. Of course nothing could be further from the truth. There my musical appreciation spills over into my deepest admiration. His dedication to his art is inspirational
СПАСИБО👏👏👏💐
Настолько проникновенно сочинено и исполнено ... Тонко,красиво,воодушевлённо ...
Часто-часто слушаю и смотрю,мне очень помогает жить ... ,особенно когда чего-то не могу брать от жизни ... КЛАНЯЮСЬ♥️
Schiff is the most generous, magnificent, loving,, interpreter of Bach I've ever come across. Such genius, such gentletness. His interpretations have been part of my life ever since I've listened to them at first. Thank you Schiff, and of course.... thank you Bach.
Me too.
My sentiments exactly. GG has a less emotional but equally beautiful style. Sometimes, I think, GG’s slower tempi and more computer-like evenness of sound serve the pieces better, but then at other times the two pianists switch the other way. I love them both. As for Lang Lang, well, he should stay safely away from Bach and stick to Liszt, Chopin and the great Russian composers, where he excels, if he values his reputation!
Also Polina
How precisely are they generous? I find them sometimes insightful, sometimes tedious.
I met him in a coffee shop in San Francisco one morning many years ago. I recognized him as he was giving a concert that evening at the symphony hall and I said “Hello”. Aren’t you the pianist, Andreas Schiff?” He was sipping an espresso and he smiled warmly and he seemed pleased to be recognized. He was very gracious. I said I looked forward to his concert that evening. He played all Beethoven that evening and it was wonderful.
J. S. Bach war ein unbegreifliches Genie! Keine Note zuviel oder zuwenig. Die "Architektur" der Bachschem Musik stimmt einfach in jeder Note!
I sometimes listen to Andras Shiff and Bach in my bed at night. Wonderful! Makes me calm and relaxed. Then my little black stray-cat jumps into the bed. And relaxes with me. I think she has a musical ear! :)
I don't know how to play on any instrument. And even if I did, prodigies like him are very rare. But I thank God that I am able to sit and enjoy so much listening...
My favorite thing about Schiff is his ability to bring out the most beautiful moments with a little extra clarity or emphasis, showcasing the genius of the composer. The faster passages in this recording are so gorgeous.
Il maestro ha una perfezione e una conoscenza così profonda di Bach che quasi è difficile crederci....tutto a memoria e un espressività mai sentita in vita mia...Sovrumano e meraviglioso!!!❤❤❤❤
Nothing soothes my soul like Bach does.
WOW!! Schiff brings out the left hand voices with such clarity...I love Bach, and I love Andras Schiff
Спасибо за публикацию! Слушаю снова и снова! 🌞
Ladies and gentlemen, I love classical music a great deal and have a deep appreciation for all the immortal beloved composers..I'm unable to pull away nor do I want to from the wonderful gravitational orbit of the mighty BACH ...I'm always listening to this awesome music..we are blessed in more ways than one to have the pleasure and luxury to enjoy all this with the magic of modern day technology...JS bach is a musical phenomenon for ever...the music compels us in a very positive and satisfying way to come back for more...mr.Bach you are the composers composer ❤.
Sir András Schiff, absolutely one of the very best Bach pianists... I loved Gould, but Schiff is on par in his devotion!
I tried to listen to Gould after hearing this version. I couldn't get through it. By all respect, I felt that Gould was almost trying to take the music out of the music.
When I was young, I liked Gould with his craziness. Later in the time of love, I preferred Gavrilov with his sensitivity. Now, when I was close to death, I hear Schiff and its serenity.
Michael Arcadiev is also a beautiful modern pianist whose Bach can fascinate
Don't die!
peace and serenity- aaaah! thanks be to God
How old are you?
Understood: very well, in fact. But I still enjoy Gavrilov.
I've lost track how many times I've come to listen to this piece. I can't get enough of it, his rendition in particular. At least a couple of times a week I'm here. Actually I had to tone it down because it was playing in my head even at night so much so that I could not sleep soundly. I find I get lost in it's soothing rhythms, and always admire how anyone could write so much beautiful music.
you are a blessed soul
J adore écouter Schiff jouer Bach car il touche à la perfection.Sa sonorité, son phrase, son profond respect de la pensée du compositeur, tout cela m enchanté.
I felt as if Bach himself was playing it. And the whisper of God. Wonderful ! I believe only people who experienced the sorrow and tragedy of life can understand the value of Maestro Bach.
Прекрасно сказано!
I keep listening to this over and over .. I wish I could play like Andras Schiff … I never get tired of this performance... Each time I listen I lock myself in and, absorb each note as though it was giving me something.. Words cannot describe how I feel about the music and, Mr. Schiff.
He's playing it in the Thomaskirche in Leipzig where Bach worked, so the vibes are very special.
P.S. I am Yasuhiro Ono Japanese pediatric clinician who love peace. Thank you for your wonderful work.
Восхитительная, живая интерпретация! Музыка течет, заставить себя остановить её, прервать запись - невозможно!
Nie spodziewałem się takiej kompozycji Mistrza. Słucham kilka dni i za każdym razem czakra serca mi wibruje.
The Gigue at 01:07:07, how does he channel such joy from Bach and from himself and maintain his place in the music so well? This guy is amazing.
It was a bit of work to find this Gigue starting at 01:03:43 🙋😉 but totally worth it. I stay speechless🙏, thank you…!
amazing memory to play this complicated pieces for 1 hour and 22 minutes
Pepe Vargas Memory is certainly one aspect, but more important is keeping the whole structure in mind as it emerges in the playing, while at the same time playing movingly in the present.
Pepe Vargas A talented piano master who studyed, practised and tought this master piece for many many years (even whole life).
***** What do you mean by trivial?
I definitely feel the effects of that. When I first started listening to Bach I was lost because of the many notes. Bach is just a BOSS.
***** It is not hard at all to memorize the entire structure - your hands do this for yourself. The hardest part is to improve your technical skills (practice makes perfect). I've studied guitar and I noticed that practicing classical composers teaches your hands of the musical sense implied in any composition. Also the whole piece must be audible in your mind as if you put a record on. It's quite amusing experience indeed.
J. S. Bach was a master at contrapuntal composition of which this is a prime example and executed masterfully by Mr. Schiff! I find the integration of multiple melodies with catchy rhythms both intriguing and very pleasant listening!
I’m in full agreement with you
From age 12 I began to learn classical music in the guitar. Listening to Bach was very inspiring. If I had to chose my favorite composer ever it would be Bach.
Il joue si doucement le piano! On dirait qu'il le touche à peine! Quelle beauté, quelle paix.....
lol
Oh que oui! Qui aurait pu dire que Bach n'était pas ..sensuel. Merveilleux!!
Oui, et en fait il joue un peu comme un claveciniste, c'est peut-être l'un de ses secrets pour être aussi parfait dans son phrasé : au piano les pièces prévues pour le clavecin ne sont pas déformées, moi j'entends encore le clavecin avec Schiff et cela me plaît énormément.
バッハをどう弾いたらよいのか迷宮入りしていましたが、シフのバッハを聴いて、バッハがこんなにも素敵だったのかと眼が覚める思いでした。他のピアニストのように速すぎることなく、とても心温まる音楽！
Quotes about J. S. Bach:
The immortal god of harmony.
- Ludwig van Beethoven
Now there is music from which a man can learn something.
- W. A. Mozart (on hearing Bach motets in Leipzig)
Bach is like an astronomer who, with the help of ciphers, finds the most wonderful stars.
- Friederick Chopin
Bach is the beginning and end of all music
- Max Reger
I had no idea of the historical evolution of the civilized world's music and had not realized that all modern music owes everything to Bach.
- Niccolai Rimsky-Korsakov
Bach is the supreme genius of music... This man, who knows everything and feels everything, cannot write one note, however unimportant it may appear, which is anything but transcendent. He has reached the heart of every noble thought, and has done it in the most perfect way.
- Pablo Casals
Those are some of the best quotes by composers who came after him. As you know, there are many more, which helps us to see the impact J.S. Bach has had on music.
Bach's music alone speaks what those quotes can't even describe!
Fabulous musician and pianist. Scholarly, intuitively musical from out of this world. The clarity and sophistication of his Bach is just paradigmatic.
It calms moved and transcends me all at the same time. Only the genius of Bach music can do this. It’s timeless and Schiff plays the way it should be played, airy and eloquent. Human language of the loftiest order.
Schiff is extraordinary. Pure genius
Nada mejor que escuchar a Bach para recuperarse del dolor que produce este mundo...
Dulce consuelo, Bellisimo❤
Perfecta interpretación, tan delicada.😊👏👏👌
Matters of interpretation aside, Schiff has an incredible ability to play all lines of polyphony with clarity and character, he's a super genius badass
Sembra che lo spirito di Bach si sia impossessato delle mani del Maestro
the fact that this video has more than 5 million views perhaps suggests that there might be some hope for humanity - although I suspect that many others, like me, return to this again and again - rather than being new to Schiff's sublime interpretation of this piece
Ja wracam często❤
One of the best live performances of J. S. Bach in existence, in my opinion.
To me, Bach is the most romantic composer. There is no other music as heavenly and spiritually uplifting as his. It's just so beautiful.
Bach hated being called a theoretician. "Music should speak to the heart most of all" were his words.
I agree, too.
That's odd since he did use alot of theory to make his works. Take his 14 canons based off of the goldberg variations for example. Lot of theory in that
cool muso I totally agree, he is romantic.
Bach and chopin the best romantic pianist and composer ive ever heard
Fantastic! What a talented musician Andras is.
Amazing that he can play all of that by memory; a true musician of the old school.
You can't get any better than The Great Bach! Beautiful performance! Andradea does a wonderful job in playing Bach! You can tell he feels what he's playing! Just wonderful!
He is By Far the Greatest Interpreter of Bach since Glenn Gould !!!...
I am so thoroughly enjoying Schiff's masterful approach to Bach. I know Glenn Gould was considered the master, but I just can't get past the groaning! Schiff is amazing to watch and a pleasure to hear. What serenity!
Peace of mind can be attained for a short time while listening to these masterpieces. That rarely happens. Thank you for posting :)
So true! Peace of mind, absolutely!
His play makes me feel something I cannot tell what it is. something awesome.
This music has sustained me through days or student marking. The more I listen to it, the more brilliant it becomes. Many thanks.
Спасибо!Слушала ночью и не могла прервать музыку-понравилась интерпретация.
Parfait contrôle de la main gauche qui égraine clairement et révèle toutes la beauté -trop souvent enfouie sous le tintamarre- de la basse. La plus belle interprétation que j'aie entendue jusqu'à ce jour du 23 avril 2020. Merci maître ! et merci pour le up-load !
Bach's music sounds like it was godly created, one whole crafted piece like an impossible gold goblet cup crafted all in one piece. no other composer compares.
God is God, Bach is Bach.
He was the founder of modern european music.
It takes tremendous dedication and work to make this performance look so effortless. These pieces relax me and certainly help me unwind, especially in the evenings. I listen to them often. Andras Schiff performance is elegant and exquisite, as are these magnificent bach compositions.
Two geniuses meet. Amazing.
Sir Schiff is present from God for all of us. We are lucky have the opportunity to listen this magician performance, thank you Sir , you are the best, with love from New Jersey, USA.
WUNDERBAR! Wie kristallklar und perfekt Andras SCHIFF diese Franz.Suiten interpretiert! BACH HÄTTE SEINE FREUDE DARAN 😊
Today I had a bad day. It´s 11PM now and I´m drinking a glass of good scotch and listening to this piece through my Sansui G-801 and my JBL 4312C speakers in my room without lights. Nothing could be better to bring finally the needed joy to my soul. Thank you filjan44 for sharing this wonderful piece with us. I´m really grateful.
thanks for sharing. very interesting.
sounds a lot more atmospheric than me (i'm eating a bowl of cereal in bed and listening through my laptop speakers )
Again today, I listened to this piece in a bathtub with my MacBook. Two bottles of Guinness draught are gone, and Gustavo strongly urged to my mind to grab a shot of Belvene or MacCallan. It's 2 AM here in the Midwest.
Andras is a great conduit between Bach and all of us. No more miracles.
listening & writing this on my M-B - alas no tub ( and i don't think i'd dare ,,, there are no more 17 inchers around ... and the sound is really quite good !! ) i would give it to you , a few teaspoons of MacCallan could 'go a long way' , or some aged Black Bush , i often chose the triple distilled but so what -- its a choice performance here and fine recording too ... well , lets say , just a little better than my son's rendition ( 1st part of 812 ) - rushing off to his mates .
- inneresting conversation down , to Perry Weiner's comment , i'm also a afficionado for most of Gould's Bach interpretations , more than Schiff's , in general , but this one here i find absolutely excellent , or perhaps i'm just a bit 'under the weather' -? ( Dreary Days in Emsterdem .. ) maybe Gould's 'clockwork-tempo' was a little too much for me after my son's .... - letz say , he could have done better ..
Now wheres that bottle ?!?! - what does Sheldon have to say about that ? - a "warm beverage" - ????
can't stop this da... beautiful playing , its just too good - Big Bang 'll just have to wait , NO THYME before it anyway !!!!-?
I'm completely speechless how somebody is able to play this without sheets of notes. Here we hear the God of ancient music played by a god of this century...
Fantastisch. Danke.
all credit goes to Bach for such an innovative and creative art, this is out of this world, and thanks be to GOD for Bach
thobisi moloi bach was the best.
than mozart
The music just flows through Andras as though he's somehow connected to an other wordly force. Extraordinary.
Just beautiful. Love his interpretation - which can only come with absolute mastery of the piece and total ease with the performance. To me he just seems to own the piece, even more that Gould. He performs with the same level of effort I use when I watch TV.
Bach monumental suites and Andras Schiff monumental interpretation
Schiff's dreamlike, transcendental expressions are testimony to the fact that this music is for all time deliverance from the world's noise and shallowness. I wish I had been in that audience. Bach indeed saves and Thank You! for uploading this wonderful performance.
Such wonderful control of emotion and technique is such a beautiful experience for all of us.
Saw Schiff in vancouver. Not many modern pianists match his brilliance.
I envy you. I wanted to go to that show, but was out of town on business (or in the hospital, I can't remember which now -- in any case, I couldn't go).
Why not?
This is true.
At work and realized that I've already listened to this twice. Such exquisite
music and I love it! Makes the day so much brighter.
Andras is a great conduit between Bach and all of us listening. No more miracles.
No existen palabras para clasificara estos dos genios Bach and Schiff.MONUMENTAL!!!!!!
I used to be all about Gould, and I still think he is a genius interpreter of Bach. But Andras Schiff has taught me things about this music - which I thought I knew backward and forward - that has enriched my understanding. Brilliant. No day without Bach!
Gould is all about GOULD playing Bach,
Schiff is all about Schiff playing BACH.
That's why I prefer Schiff.
Rosalyn Tureck is one of my go-tos for Bach as is Angela Hewitt. I never tire of hearing Schiff. I was lucky to hear him live in San Francisco playing the French Suites. A true master.
Exactly my thought to 👍
From Bach's miraculous brain, to the remarkable intelligence of Schiff (no one has thought longer or harder about Bach's music, or played it with greater brilliance), to my own paltry three pounds of oatmeal mush of a brain--no match for Bach or Schiff, but still able to love this beautiful music. And now I ease my children into listening to it, and they will, years from now, I hope, have theirs listen...and so it goes.
Imagine being able to memorize all that! Thanks to OP, that was just great.
Divino divino J.S.BACH.Musica salida desde el espiritu.Sublime.El verdadero Ser Supremo nunca se aburriria de escucharlo en la eternidad.Que paz celestial.
La emoción que transmite el pianista al público es tan directa que es imposible no dejar que los sentimientos y la magia del sonido cautiven cada uno de los poros de la piel. Vibrante, esto hace la música.
What a versatile and unconventional composer Bach was🔥
Listening to Bach,
troublesome affairs of the mundane world Is washed away
フレンチスーツ全曲、譜面なしでの演奏素晴らしいです。
チェンバロで聞きなれていますが、ピアノも良いものですね。
バッハの優しい気持ちが感じられます。
очень хорошее исполнение. Все выдержано в нужных параметрах. Спасибо.
Жизнь в которой есть Бах благославенна.
Awesome. I love it when the music is so sublime and his face totally reflects that... and when the music is capricious and his face... etc... So good. WTF??? The audience doensn't IMMEDIATLEY rise to their feet to applaud. OMG.
I have performed the G Major French Suite (Andras plays the Sarabande from that suite soooooo beautifully....) and I hope to perform more of them --- and the A Minor Italian Suite (I really like it!)
Blessings, all!!!!
I can't say for definite, but i think Andres Schiff knows all of Bach's keyboard music from memory. Extraordinary 😊 to quote him, "I play 2, 4, 6 or 8 preludes and fugues every day of my life, it's like taking a shower and cleansing yourself, something so pure"
For many people it would be impossible to learn by heart simply the sub titles of these 6 French suites, let alone the notes. Remarkable interpretation.
Anyone who's body and spirit doesn't yearn for music such as this has missed an important 'boat'.
This includes the entire "Team Trump"...lol
CLASSICALFAN .100 I can’t believe I laughed at this
You are so right. I was lucky to be exposed to Bach early on in church. If Biden does indeed appoint a culture and arts secretary, maybe more people will finally be exposed, especially children, of all ages and colors. Best to you Jackie
@@CLASSICALFAN100 I have 6 Degrees and a Doctorate...and I can play this...but not as well as the good Mr. Schiff...and I voted for Trump...typical Democrat, eh? Always falsely assuming that people with a different point of view than you are dumb...here's a tissue to wipe the drool off your chin...there, that's better
I can't stop watching and enjoying!
Despite his stylistic diversity, Bach was above all a composer of expressionist aesthetics, always close to drama, depth, angst and the deep and tormented view of life which seems to emanate from the metaphysics of man. as of its same deep nature. Thank you for discovering this wonderful pianist, Andras Schiff
I am addicted to Andras Schiff's wonderful Bach interpretations. Seeing is believing, but I can't understand how it's possible to play these Suites from memory.
