I love this playing. The rise and fall of the melodic lines always feels just right. I don't know he keeps the gigue so together at that tempo! (Although, if you want a really fast gigue, listen to Gould--his is really too fast, while this one, again, feels just right.) Thanks for posting.
IMO,, when GG first came on the scene he dazzled (some) listeners because he played the GV faster than anyone else had ever done. People like that.. They will pay money to watch horses, greyhound dogs or eccentric pianists do what they do with lightning speed.
To The Nimble Turtle: ......." and continues to the end of the work." Don't know if you are a big fan of lots of counterpoint or canons (like I am) or just Bach in D major, but I can almost feel that keyboard 'cadenza' from the 5th Brandenburg in this Partita.

Wonderful. However, though the Allemande sounds the way an Allemande should, it doesn't feel like the appropriate tempo to me... A bit slower, perhaps...
There's a lot of wonderful playing here. But the Gigue is definitely too fast. It loses detail, for example the enjoyable syncopations soon after the start of the second half. In the performance as a whole there seems to be some influence from Tatyana Nikolaeva's splendid interpretation of this Partita -- and no wonder, Sokolov must have heard her often -- but she took the Gigue at a more rational, though still fast, speed: th-cam.com/video/pBRYoJZ2n5A/w-d-xo.html Her performance of the whole Partita is at th-cam.com/video/U9iuIvOEeHM/w-d-xo.html and all her Partitas are on TH-cam, to our great benefit.
Sokolov makes me feel great again about life.
Sokolov and Bach, I'd say.

Thank you for posting this
Bravo bravissimo
I just love the precision and contouring Soklov gives to ornamentation.
"Contouring." I like that.
He plays it so nicely, it's almost like he has never played anything else but Bach.
Marvelous interpretation, its like magic sometimes!
coming back all the time, can not live without hearing this!!!!
Браво! Это играет гений пианистического мастерства. Супер ! ❤🎉😮😊
Bellissima esecuzione. Bravo 👏👏👏
Gorgeous interpretation of Ouverture

only Sokolov can bring this in such a nice form
beautiful! love Sokolov
❤❤❤As usual with him - Comme d'habitude avec lui
Great Sokolov. Great!
Master of master.
If this guy would play concerts 365 days a year we would all be without gigs.
That calm my tinnitus, thx.
Ouverture simply perfect.
Daniel Moreira
Great depth of playing, and the gigue: wow...
titusbeertsen The Gigue: impossibly perfect.
this gives me so much life
Benjamin Grosvernor also gives a very inspired performance of this Partita.
this is just marvellous
Great upload, thank you!
5:58 - 6:20 Very neat!

Introduction: 0:00
Allemande: 6:26
A strange sounding piano, but it works.
Giga come palestra di esibizionismo, è ancora musica??

An unfortunate error it seems. This is Sokolov, definitely not Yuan Sheng (also available on TH-cam).
That's a fast gigue!
Then listen to the gigue of the first partita
de Allemande is heel romantisch
❤
👍👍👍
Does anyone know the painter of that picture?
Wonderful. However, though the Allemande sounds the way an Allemande should, it doesn't feel like the appropriate tempo to me... A bit slower, perhaps...
Is this from a cd?
is this Sokolov or Yuan Sheng?
Sokolov
Me gusta más la versión de vedernikov
曲の途中でコマーシャル入るのは興ざめですね💦
Bellissima. Wonderful but gigue too fast: gigue is a dance.

dont agree :)
I’m confused: who’s playing this? It says Sokolov in the title but Yuan Sheng in the credits.
its sokolov
if you listen to all the partitas by Yuan Sheng, Partita 4 sounds very different.
