- Grigory Sokolov playing Bach's Toccata in E minor, BWV 914, live in Moscow on 3 March 1990. The full performance is now online (link at the top of the comments). Definitely my favourite living pianist and long may he stay that way.

I tremble with excitement every time I listen to this.
My daughter played this for her diploma. At the age of 16, the piece must feel like insurmountable at first sight. When I played this version to her, she was so stressed that she cried. But in the end she did it and got a distinction in the exam. Excuse my bias as a proud father, I think she played just as well as the great Sokolov :-)
@unitedwestand let the proud father have his moment :P
@unitedwestand Thanks for sharing. I actually completely agree with you.
Невозможно забыть: душное московское лето 1966 года. Я слушаю по радиоприёмнику прямую трансляцию конкурса из БЗ консерватории - 2-й концерт Сен-Санса. Вступление в классическом стиле ошеломляло. Очнулся, когда уже загремели аплодисменты. И с тех пор Соколов не меняется. Начинаешь только слушать, и приходишь в себя, когда уже конец.
На то и Соколов.
А я совсем недавно услышала и узнала гения Соколова, с тех пор его только слушаю и иногда плачу. Не знаю отчего.

Very interesting view!
Thank you for sharing!
No one could ever play it stronger than our Grigory Sokolov!
Sokolov is a legend. He plays for the SAKE of Music, which is quite rare these days. Whatever he plays, there is a special touch to it.
Mehdi Adlany yes! He played with mind
As an amateur musician, I wonder how it must feel to so skilfully play the most beautiful music known to man. I wonder, is it immensely pleasurable, more like the more biological pleasures, or does the intense concentration and skill required, prevent a true ecstatic experience. I suspect it is a mixture of extreme pleasure and discipline - this also seems to me central to Bach's music (often incorrectly described as 'rational' music in my opinion), a rollercoaster that balances extreme passion with extreme thoughtfulness (without either of the two getting dominant and suppressing the intensity of the other, resulting in a constant high intensity presence of both ratio and emotion, an intensity unparalleled by any other composer )
Jorge, I totally agree with you, at the length of your entire concept about the music sokolov and Bach, all the feelings converge in Bach music, intellect, passion and the human part in its highest degree, one thing that’s make it look cerebral is the deepness of concept, Sokolov is one of the privileged that where able to grasp it and bring it to us, also Sviatoslav Richter was another one
I’m also an amateur musician, and discover musicality in the most innocent line of music is intoxicating
Music is my favorite country, thank you for sharing
I have often thought of Bach's music in this way but never been able to find the words. You express it perfectly. I hear a deep and pure emotion of the spirit in the music of Bach.
Thanks for the compliment Patrick.
As a pianist you can feel the music vibrating, i feel the pleasure in Bach's beautiful harmonies and my ears enjoy the beautiful melodies.
I believe it is necesary to really understand a piece though, only then can you truly experience it 100%.
I had my piano exam not long ago, and I could truly sing along in my head while playing, it does require immense concentration but you're also almost directly forced to feel the music, that way you can make it sing towards the audience
@@davidschestenger7350 If you are content with your sound and technique, then performing the music is 100% a transformative experience.
The fuge is absolutely amazing! He plays it at an anormal speed with 0 fails, this man is a wonderful pianist!
Wrong note at 2:55
I think there is a wrong note in the fugue at 4 min and 43 seconds.
@@crgl2009that is not the fugue and it's not wrong note
@@AleTurchetto Yes , I confirmed there is a wrong note. Wash your ears.
When he began the fugue my first reaction was “too fast!” By the end he had convinced me that this was the only way to play it
Only Sokolov is able to build such an intense atmosphere.
This 5:49 alone is a perfect illustration that Sokolov that his being left out of "Great Pianists of the 20th Century" 200 CD set when pianists like Previn, Magaloff, and Eschenbach were inlcuded among many other grossly inferior choices.Sokolov's ability to capture a moment and an audience is breathtaking. There is so much more to Sokolov, but this video clearly shows that he was one of the greatest pianists not just of our time, but all time.
classicalalways I think that the omission of Sokolove has contributed to make "Great pianists of the 20th century" obsolete, not to say ridiculous, more than anything else.
I couldn't agree more with you.
I think a large reason for the omission is the very limited number of recordings he authorises to be released.
@@MyMagic111 why do you feel the need to invent this bs? Americans love Rubinstein, fine, but this is ridiculous.
@Anson Yeung I stand corrected. Thank you.
My god, how he plays the fugue is unreal! Truly a superhuman, thank you for that beauty
I've listened to this more than 25 times and just can't get enough. Astounding... like a train ride that takes you right back to the mind and spirit of its creator.
Beautiful madness. Man possessed. Simply WOW!
Extraordinary. I can't imagine a more impassioned, brilliant performance of this gorgeous piece.
He totally knocked me out first time, I heard this.
Настоящего МАСТЕРА
слышно с первой ноты !!!!!
Просто , без самолюбования -- ТАЛАНТЛИВО !!!!!
БРАВО !!!!
Come on Olga!! Only The Real Masrer Pianist Grigory Sokolov! The Truth=Grigory Sokolov=THE TITAN OF THE PIANO!! THE GIANT OF THE PIANO!! Grigory Sokolov his Chopin piano concerto no 2! Brahms piano concerto no 2! Mozart piano concerto no 24! Saint-Saens piano concerto no 2! AFTER GRIGORY SOKOLOV PLAYED THESE CONCERTOS THEN ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS ARE REALLY ONLY THE DUST ZEROS!! ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS=THE DUST ZEROS!!! Sokolov Versus All The Others Pianists 100-0!!
Sokolov is the only living pianist who can make a concert a quasi religious experience. I learned about him late because he's not well known in America. But for me, he ranks alongside Horowitz, Gilels, and Richter. He's simply brilliant.
Alongside... or above the ones you mention (although they surely were greats too).
Out of this world!
We never again need to regret Bach not being played on a harpsichord:
Johann Sebastian himself would have absolutely loved Grigory Sokolov's
stupendous performance on a modern grand piano.
I am in tears of joy listening to this astonishing music.....
True....Gould too....and Harvey Keitel in "Fingers"
It’s awesome to have great interpretations on both instruments. No one can love Bach and, at the same time, hate his music played in the instruments he intended his music to be played.
Such vibrant, crystal-clear, exciting, beautiful playing. Bach is ALIVE in this.
This knocked me off my feet first time, I heard it. There is a strange sort of pain in this music - like an echo of something long gone and deeply missed.
Stunning,,, the touch ,,,he has!
Mad props to Mr.Sokolov! That was flawless.
I am stunned, it is very very precious recording.
My favourite toccata. Flawless interpretation.

Merveilleux, cet immense pianiste, la perfection
Жизнь в которой есть Бах благословенна! Соколов божественно играет. Спасибо автору за ролик!
Абсолютно согласна. Бесконечно слушаю МАЭСТРО. Он вместе с Бахом переносит в прекрасное неизведанное пространство - это тайна и счастье. Спасибо.
Согласна. Но еще меня поражает, как МАЭСТРО гениально соединяет прошлое с современным мироощущением. Слышится что-то неуловимое родное. Спасибо!!!!!
After listening to this, I feel he would sound absolutely amazing on a harpsichord too!
Excelente, gran interpretación :)
It's amazing, wonderful interpretation
such beautiful ACHOOOOO playing .... [crowd noise] ... lovely interpretation COUGH COUGH by a master
mxsxkxcrc when the playing is this good, extraneous noise cannot compete. Glenn Gould hums. My response: “What humming?””
Волшебный Григорий Соколов
Astonishing performance.
. . . my God
The part at 2:20 is mesmerizing...no one plays it like that.
Glorious.
Awesome ! What beautiful intensity.
amazing , gorgeus interpretation!
Organique, spirituel, magnifique ! Et 40 ans après c'est toujours aussi beau de l'écouter en concert
That was fabulous!
😍 ¡absolutely amazing! 💕💐💐💐
Sokolov always astonishes me!
Покорил... нет слов..
Унёс в облака..
All true, here: majestic. Sokolov's Chopin's Etude op. 25 no. 12 ("Ocean") is so effin' scary my hair flew off into outer space.
This is "something" like frome the other world...; the better world...; something like comfort for all this terrible lack of love nowadays; something like musical EVANGELION...; As Bach himself said: "Real music never should just entertain, but should better the listener"...;-)-...
Fantastic. What can one say? What energy, and what precision. And I have to say this: in spite of their histories we have a great Russian pianist playing a German composer.
Come on Ann and Martin! Only Energy! Precision! The Main Part Sokolov's playing is The rhythmic Vital Beat! Unbeatable vitalness! The Truth is Grigory Sokolov=THE TITAN OF THE PIANO!! THE GIANT OF THE PIANO!!! Grigory Sokolov his playing Chopin piano concerto no 2! Brahms piano concerto no 2! Mozart piano concerto no 24! Saint-Saens piano concerto no 2! AFTER GRIGORY SOKOLOV PLAYED THESE CONCERTOS THEN ALL THE OTHERS PIANISTS ARE REALLY ONLY THE DUST ZEROS!!!!
Yes, what wonderful precision and depth.
Yes, otinceerso. Wonderful playing by Sokolov. Some might find his style slightly aggressive but I don't. Great energy and a love of Bach.
Outraging technique and ornaments !!! His thrills are beyond this world !! Best exemple his rendition of Rameaux's "La Poule" also on YT
And not to forget.....the hell with these coughers !!!😡😡
Celestiale
Wonderful!!!!
Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable. Both Sokolov and Bach are the greatest.
💙💙💙
mastery
I. Love. Sokolov.
Impecável interpretação!
greeeeeat performance , i dicn't know this pianist , so much passion in him , right tempo , everything is perfect , bach would have be so happy to hear that
Very impressed
Браво
This blew my mind.
In my not so humble opinion, NOBODY plays this better than Sokolov!
Браво, Маэстро!
The last part (fugue) payed perfectly
❤
Merci pour le partage. MAGNIFIQUE SOKOLOV
Fantastischer Pianist!
Such precision and energy, who but Sokolov?
Gould's OK too....but Different. Regards from San Agustinillo!
Harvey Keitel trying to play this in "Fingers".......BRAVO from Acapulco!
Splendide. Plus belle version que j'ai entendu
Oui, moi aussi. BRAVO!
Avez-vous vu sa version en direct de la poule de rameaux 😳😳😳 ?? Hallucinant !!!!!!☺️

Elite Musiker.
Great!
와.....진짜 소콜로프는 피아노의 신이다...
Isn't it lovely music
Beautiful performance, but the video is missing the first part of the piece -- the double fugue (un poco allegro).
I currently practice this piece , i didn´t realize, that it´s a double fugue, that´s amazing!
!))!!
Sokolov can not play other than perfectly...
What's perfection? Greatness is enough. And yes, I did catch a wrong note at 5:14 (d natural instead of d#).
2:05 hahahahahha favorite part
0.00 Thrid movment
3.14 Fourth movement
4:10 john travolta is impressed
yes!..witty
he´s hot
LOOOOOOL! ahsuhaushfduahsdufhausd
Hes thinking - Sandy ...baby ...I'm in misery ..influenced by bach
3:13 is when the fugue starts
Does anyone know how to find the first part of this piece performed by sokolov
