En tant que forme musicale, la suite constitue le développement des séries de danses, qui, au XV et XVIe siècles, étaient arrangées pour luth. Comme ces danses étaient jouées l’une après l’autre, elles furent disposées dans un ordre qui provoquait l’intérêt par le contraste existant entre elles. La suite de danses en vint, plus tard, à être jouée uniquement pour sa valeur musicale. En Allemagne, la suite s’appelait ‘Partita’, en France, ‘Exercice’ ou ‘Ordre’ et , en Angleterre, ‘Lesson’. Toutefois, après un certain temps, ce fut le mot français ‘Suite’ qui, s’étant généralisé en Allemagne, prévalut partout. ERIC HEIDSIECK est né en 1936. De parents musiciens amateurs, il a travaillé sous la direction d’Alfred CORTOT avec madame Bascouret de Guéraldi. Il obtint un premier prix au conservatoire de Paris dans la classe de Marcel Ciampi, puis suivit les cours de Wilhelm KEMPFF a Positano en 1957. Il a donné en 1964 l’intégrale des Concertos de Mozart et en 1969 l’intégrale des sonates de Beethoven. Eric Heidsieck a fondé un duo de pianos avec son épouse Tania et a joué plus de 60 concertos pour 1 ou 2 pianos. Depuis le début de sa carrière, Éric Heidsieck a donné plus de 2 000 concerts à travers le monde. Il a également donné de nombreuses master classes en France et à l’étranger. En France, il a enseigné durant 18 ans au CNSM de Lyon. De 1957 à 2004, il a enregistré 100 disques. Il est également le compositeur de plusieurs cycles de mélodies. Erick Heidsieck est un ami personnel. C’est un homme avec un très grand coeur, qui aime les gens et la musique. Il est humble, simple et modeste. Ces qualités sont toujours enrobées d’une touche d’humour qui vous met à l’aise. Quand il écoute la musique, il vibre en même temps, fait de grands gestes interprétatifs et pleure parfois devant la beauté de certains passages. Nous sommes heureux que cette sublime intégrale puisse enfin rendre justice à l’homme et au musicien. Liszt - Six Consolations S.172, Consolation No.3, St.François ..

Nr. 01-08 is the famous "Eight Great Suites" published 1720 HWV 426-433. In 1733, another set was published from HWV 434 (where you'll find the theme Brahms used to elaborate his Händel-Variationen, Op. 24 in Air con variazioni, and the elegent, sentimental Menuetto probably made famous by Kempff's transcription) to HWV 442. Sadly 434, 435 and 442 (two Chaconnes based on the same theme, as same as Bach's Goldberg-Variationen, HWV 435 & 442) are not included here. Nr. 09 HWV 439 g-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 6) Nr. 10 HWV 436 d-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 3) Nr. 11 HWV 437 d-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 4) Nr. 12 HWV 438 e-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 5) Nr. 13 HWV 440 B-Dur (Set 1733 Nr. 7) Nr. 14 HWV 441 G-Dur (Set 1733 Nr. 8) Nr. 15 HWV 447 d-moll Nr. 16 HWV 452 g-moll Also several late suites, i.e. HWV 443-445, 448-450, 453 are outliers as well. If you want to count more completely, William Babell's four lessons on Handel's improvisation playing from opera pit could be included. Handel's keyboard suites are very much underrated and marginalized. I wish more pianists could pay attention to this treasure where Beethoven absorded the full nutrition of it, you might find the trace of which in the 4th mov of his Eroica symphony and the Arioso of Op. 111.
Mr. Heidsieck plays these wonderful gems with the "singing style" that was so much prized by composers of that era. His touch is by turns limpid, brilliant, sombre, and joyful as the case demands. This is one of the best recordings of the Handel suites that I've ever heard, and I am very glad that they are available here on You Tube "music lovers to refresh their spirits".
Exquisite, and with almost a Romantic twist. I love Handel, he is my favorite composer, and this new interpretation is gorgeous, thoughtful, and underlines Handel's versatility and breadth..
Richter e Heidsieck: due grandi interpreti delle suites di Haendel. Mentre il primo offre un'esecuzione magistralmente misurata nella tecnica e nella sensibilità interpretativa, mai oltre le righe, com'è suo costume, il secondo affianca ad una tecnica di pari efficacia una certa coloritura quasi sensuale, morbida, oltre il barocco.
I cannot thank you enough for this awesome music and outstanding rendition! This is one of the rare pieces of music which I can listen to over and over. Such a beauty, lightness and transcendency! I always asked myself why there was no satisfying music for keyboard by Handel with regard to so many other great masterpieces by him - now I know I was altogether ignorant .... This is the discovery of the year for me!!! Thank you!!
I wholeheartedly agree with a comment made a year or so ago, and yet another made only last month. This is indeed Handel performed with sensitivity and great subtlety. Eric Heidsieck, where so many other pianists have failed, bridges the gap of transcription from the instruments of the period to the modern era with seemingly effortless ease. In itself no mean feat. The new mastering accentuates the acoustic, enabling the mastery, intelligence, and pianism of Heidsieck to shine through. For me there is no better performance of this repertoire.
Wasn't much a fan of Händel's music in general until I heard this recording. Now I feel there's so much more to explore and learn. Thank you for sharing.
I'm listening this from my apartment in Halle Saale, where this was written, lying in bed and watching the sunset.... Life is good with a phone and internet 😂😂
Vidéo que j'aime retrouver, en écoute doublée avec le son d'une rivière forestière, pour m'activer tout en légèreté au cours d'une matinée... Merci à Classical Music de partager avec nous tous cet excellent moment musical... Bravo à Eric Heidsieck !!!
A long, standing ovation for Maestro Heidsieck!!! Just listened to No. 5 (HWV 430), my first time with any recording of this pianist, whom it was my loss not to know of until now (as you can see, I both flaunt and regret my ignorance). This feels something like Keats's "On First Looking Into Chapman's Homer": hearing the suite in an utterly new way. The magic and beauty of interpretation in the right hands--the partnership of a superb performer with an immortal composer--it is as if Handel has now expressed something new to us. Maestro, je vous en remercie, de tout coeur. And now, on to the wonders of No. 2 (HWV 427)!!
As a newcomer to these Händel suites, No. 5 is currently my favourite and Heidsieck's rendering is simply heavenly. Richter's version is the one that first caught my attention, but once I listened more extensively and more carefully to this version, I was blown away. More singing and more dancing!
découverte ce soir déprimée depuis des jours.... JOIE RETROUVEE à cette écoute!!!! grand merci Mister Maestro HAENDEL et son virtuose interprète sir HEIDSIECK
A lovely interpretation - sublimely pianistic - of Handel's glorious keyboard suites. As with another commentator here, I have only more recently come across these works, and I though I knew much of Handel's music, and I have the recordings by Danny Driver. I didn't think these could be improved, perhaps not, but this is certainly a match, perhaps more limpid and caressing - almost romantic, and you know, there's no need to pretence of historically informed performance when the music is as beautiful as this. These suites are among my most re-played works, this recording reminds me why. Thank you Eric Heidsieck.
Merci. Une merveille. Haendel bien sûr, mais aussi un interprète limpide, aérien. Une évidence de jeu que je place (très subjectif bien sûr) dans ces œuvres au dessus du grand Richter que je vénère tant. Amitiés à vous tous mélomanes
The waters of the river of life that never stop flowing, sometimes calm and crystal clear, sometimes energetic and turbulent. The notes of the melodies reflect these moments... the most beautiful ones are when the brightness of the sun is reflected in the incessant flow of the waters... But, all moments (more or less bright or calm) are necessary. Life and its incessant melody... 🎼 🎹 🎶 🎵🎵 🎶🎶🎶 💗💐
Handel was the first great classic composer I loved as a young man. Now I am over 73 and still Handel (like Bach and the Beethoven piano sonatas) keeps surprising me. Beethoven admired Handel very much and I understand now perhaps why...Eric Heidsieck will become my favorite interpretation of this great collection, together with Richter,though I play Heidsiecks Handel more now....
Peter, I could sign my name to almost every detail of what you say! I too fell in love with Handel's music at age 10, though I somehow picked up a (mystifying and ultimately unjustifiable) patronizing disdain, slight but unmistakable, for Handel's music among certain cognoscenti. The knock on him, as I perceived it, was that his music was too programmatic, too "pop" if you will--the Water Music, above all--and presumably lacking Bach's profundity and/or complexity. I remember the feeling of gratitude and vindication on learning of Beethoven's reverence for Handel as "the master of us all." GFH has continued to surprise me and bring me joy my whole life; I began to transcribe some of the Water Music suite for piano, then came upon some pretty good transcriptions and have been learning it. I too admire Richter's Handel above all, and I too am stunned by Heidsieck's which I've just discovered. I now listen to both Richter and Heidsieck, chiefly, for Handel's keyboard suites. Gerard Aimontche, a young Russian pianist, does a wonderful job with No. 5 (Blacksmith), and I enjoy Alicia de Larrocha's interpretation too. But for me now, it's SR & EH that most engage me. These suites are a cornucopia.
I agree with your appreciation of this rendition. I’ve been listening to it for a while, ever since it came onto TH-cam. And each time I hear more and more. I’m 77 and am so happy to find someone who loves this as much as I do. Thanks for your post…….
@@carolwaugh5466- I'm way younger than you guys, but I agree with every word you wrote in these comments! I've admired Haendel since I was a little boy, and once in a while I play through one or two of these magnificent suites on my piano which is really satisfying, musically as well as technically, since Haendel's writing is simply excellent. Eric Heidsieck is an amazing pianist who is still active in the musical scene and who looks decades younger than he actually is! He is probably my favorite Haendel player if I had to pick one. I could listen to these recordings all day!
Could not agree more. The only recordings I can find are used LPs on ebay. It's a crime. These recordings (originally, on multiple LP releases) deserve a re-master and re-release.
I was recently researching one of my relatives who was alive in the 1700s. (I am not sure if I am a descendant of him or if we have a common ancestor.) I found a document that someone wrote about him that said that he was a musician and liked playing piano and the fiddle (I play the piano), and that he loved talking about Handel. It's awesome and crazy to think that he listened to and knew about this music all those years ago in the 1700s, and now I am listening to it. And I love it too!
Pensé que solo JSBach era capaz de escribir así.... esto no le va en zaga! Bien por Haendel y la magnifica interpretacion, aunque sea en piano, lo que incita a tocarlo tan "romanticamente", tan expresivo y no como era en su epoca donde los teclados no lo permitian. Pero suena muy agradable a nuestro oido de 2023, asi que bienvenido. ( sospecho que Haendel, Bach, D. Scarlatti y otros grandes tecladistas barrocos hubieran amado tener la posibilidad expresiva de los modernos teclados )
Underrated performer, playing hidden gems. Both deserve more recognition. These Suites are so expressive and a nice recreation from the more famous baroque works for keyboards.
Heidsieck is FLYING!.... and dear Händel was a poet! - and was admired by Bach, who was once asked, whom he would like to be and who answered:"Händel - if I weren´t Bach" - probably with a wink and a slight smile. He was very proud of the family, he belonged to. The Bach family was influential in the musical landscape.
C'est LE meilleur Händel pour clavier que j'ai jamais entendu ! Moi, qui ne suis pas en général grand amateur de Händel, j'écoute bouche bée et ne peux pas me rassasier. Merci pour la diffusion et surtout merci à Monsieur Eric Heidsieck !
Love this player, such beautiful expression.The Grande Sarabande is one of the first baroque pieces I learned, now I am learning more about the Suites of Handel and love them so much.
@@DA-ok6rf Baroque was exuberant, look at the architecture and the texts of the cantatas and oratorios and Heidsieck highlights this better than anyone. Only in the 20th century some began to consider baroque music as an anemic, vegan and sterilised exercise.
merci mille fois pour cette intégrale jouée par ce pianiste d'exception qu'est Eric Heidseick. En l'écoutant j'ai l'impression de le connaître tel que vous le décrivez : une personnalité d'une intelligence humaine et musicale rare.
Wonderful pianist. Some pianists sound either generic or willfully eccentric in these pieces but Eric Heidsieck's has a very individual approach which is full of character and very convincing. Great stuff!
El grandioso Georg Friedrich, uno de los verdaderos y pocos genios musicales que este mundo dio, interpretado en un piano moderno y por un instrumentista maravilloso. Inmejorable.

Rach, I'm sorry to hear of the pain your heart is experiencing, and can only imagine it may be sharpened now by the anniversary effect. At the same time, I'm grateful that these great partnerships (composer, performer, recording engineers) make it possible for you to find the solace you so sorely need. I wish you recovery, healing, and little by little the return of joy.
Rach, if I may suggest a performance that I find unutterably moving, dark, and brooding, yet also transformative and transcendent: The late, great Igor Zhukov's performance of his own piano transcription of Bach's Passacaglia & Fugue in C Minor, BWV 582, th-cam.com/video/tAUkximrwHw/w-d-xo.html. For me it is not possible to experience this performance without weeping, but the tears have much relief and life-affirmation mixed with the sorrow.
I came here from Richter's recording which is obviously stupendous however was too percussive for me, that "gripe" is down to the recording and instrument. As with every interpretation there are many variables. Right now am enjoying this thoroughly.
it's been quite sometime lately that I heard a piano recording this good, lyrical, well thought of and good pianism. Heidsieck has such beautiful tone and unlike most pianists, including Richter and Gavrilov, he doesn't treat Haendel lightly, he treats him seriously, with each phrase well considered, coupled with his lilting tone, even though his aethetism doesn't mean to be revolutionary or to shock with novelty, each piece is treated with refreshing beauty, even the most well worn Harmonious Blacksmith is given a satisfying twist with lovely dotted left hand bass that's musically more convincing than most pianists including de Larrocha. And I am sure most listeners here would be happy to find out that in the passacaglia of the 7th suite, Heidsieck added some of his Busonian transcription stuffs that breathes new life into the work.
I was completely ignorant regarding Handel suites. Of course I knew his Messiah and sarabande and water music and fireworks. Moreover, I have no recollection of ever having heard Heidsieck before. My fault. The more one learns, the more these infinite expanses of ignorance grow around one. Not new, Socrates described this difficulty in his Apology. To no avail, I may add. Handel keyworks are a complete new world for me. The similarity to JS Bach suites and partitas is of course staggering. Seems to me that Handel was larger and more complex and sophisticated than normally thought. Perhaps his burying himself in London meant to stay outside of culturally richer Europe (i. e. , Italy, France and certainly Germany). Thanks Classical Music for unearthing and uploading this beautiful, precious music.
Une interprétation où la virtuosité le dispute à l’élégance délicieusement surannée du phrasé. Si Sviatoslav Richter brille par la puissance de son interprétation, Éric Heidsieck nous offre la limpidité et la subtilité. Dans les deux cas, les suites pour Clavier du très inventif Haendel sont magnifiées par ces pianistes hors pair...
Until now I knew Monsieur Heidsieck only from his worthy EMI recording of Beethoven's 32. This Handel offering is well played and in impeccable taste. I raise my glass of champagne to him!
Magnifique enregistrement! Subtilité, sensibilité, poésie, mais aussi fougue et virtuosité, quelle beauté! Un toucher extraordinaire; à chaque instant tantôt on rêve, on vit, on respire, ou bien on est suspendu ou embarqué vers les cieux, on ferme les yeux et on se laisse mener vers les merveilles de ce monde. BRAVO! Rappel du site internet officiel d'Eric Heidsieck: www.EricHeidsieck.net
My introduction to Händel was the Water Music and Fireworks suites, where he sounds really powerful and splendid, like a proper Baroque composer. This collection, however, came as a surprise to me - it sounds much more sophisticated, introverted, and modern; as if he had glimpsed the developments of the Romantic period. It seems as though this had been written by a different composer altogether, like the alchemical experiments Newton did at night, or Goethe's essays on colour theory.
Two great musical masters, Eric Heidsieck and Paul Tortelier playing the Beethoven 'cello sonatas together. A generation ago, Janos Sebestyen at harpsichord playing Handel. Today it would likely be Skip Sempe or Jean Rondeau.
just put up a comment that I have come here from Richter. And in fairness to him it is his piano and recording that "let him down" but others may enjoy his interpretation and overall presentation.
Mr Heidsieck certainly brings something to this music he seems to be alone to have come to grip with. There are other fine pianists in Handel, my favorites are Gavrilov and Hewitt (only two items alas). But where most pianists play Bach and Handels suites approximately the same way Mr Heidsiecks renderings never could be mistaken to be music by Bach, a mistake I have experienced even listeners familiar with the idiom making from time to time. .
Gavrilov a également enregistré un certain nombre des Keyboard suites, et je crois qu’il existe un enregistrement commun avec Richter qui doit rassembler pratiquement l’intégralité de ces œuvres
Yes, agree!! Well, Handel was greatly admired by both. Haydn said, "He is the master of us all." Beethoven "He is the greatest composer who ever lived. I would uncover my head and kneel before his grave"

LA SUITE est une série de compositions instrumentale réunies en une seul oeuvre. En tant que forme musicale, la suite constitue le développement des séries de danses, qui, au XV et XVIe siècles, étaient arrangées pour luth. Comme ces danses étaient jouées l’une après l’autre, elles furent disposées dans un ordre qui provoquait l’intérêt par le contraste existant entre elles. La suite de danses en vint, plus tard, à être jouée uniquement pour sa valeur musicale. En Allemagne, la suite s’appelait ‘Partita’, en France, ‘Exercice’ ou ‘Ordre’ et , en Angleterre, ‘Lesson’. Toutefois, après un certain temps, ce fut le mot français ‘Suite’ qui, s’étant généralisé en Allemagne, prévalut partout.
ERIC HEIDSIECK est né en 1936. De parents musiciens amateurs, il a travaillé sous la direction d’Alfred CORTOT avec madame Bascouret de Guéraldi. Il obtint un premier prix au conservatoire de Paris dans la classe de Marcel Ciampi, puis suivit les cours de Wilhelm KEMPFF a Positano en 1957. Il a donné en 1964 l’intégrale des Concertos de Mozart et en 1969 l’intégrale des sonates de Beethoven. Eric Heidsieck a fondé un duo de pianos avec son épouse Tania et a joué plus de 60 concertos pour 1 ou 2 pianos.
Depuis le début de sa carrière, Éric Heidsieck a donné plus de 2 000 concerts à travers le monde. Il a également donné de nombreuses master classes en France et à l’étranger. En France, il a enseigné durant 18 ans au CNSM de Lyon. De 1957 à 2004, il a enregistré 100 disques. Il est également le compositeur de plusieurs cycles de mélodies.
Erick Heidsieck est un ami personnel. C’est un homme avec un très grand coeur, qui aime les gens et la musique. Il est humble, simple et modeste. Ces qualités sont toujours enrobées d’une touche d’humour qui vous met à l’aise. Quand il écoute la musique, il vibre en même temps, fait de grands gestes interprétatifs et pleure parfois devant la beauté de certains passages. Nous sommes heureux que cette sublime intégrale puisse enfin rendre justice à l’homme et au musicien.

Georg Friedrich Haendel PLAYLIST (reference recordings) th-cam.com/video/HNJPDUHKTlc/w-d-xo.html&list=PL3UZpQL9LIxMj1UpsqX_ALRZ9ydo6UjNd&index=3
Nr. 01-08 is the famous "Eight Great Suites" published 1720 HWV 426-433. In 1733, another set was published from HWV 434 (where you'll find the theme Brahms used to elaborate his Händel-Variationen, Op. 24 in Air con variazioni, and the elegent, sentimental Menuetto probably made famous by Kempff's transcription) to HWV 442. Sadly 434, 435 and 442 (two Chaconnes based on the same theme, as same as Bach's Goldberg-Variationen, HWV 435 & 442) are not included here.
Nr. 09 HWV 439 g-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 6)
Nr. 10 HWV 436 d-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 3)
Nr. 11 HWV 437 d-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 4)
Nr. 12 HWV 438 e-moll (Set 1733 Nr. 5)
Nr. 13 HWV 440 B-Dur (Set 1733 Nr. 7)
Nr. 14 HWV 441 G-Dur (Set 1733 Nr. 8)
Nr. 15 HWV 447 d-moll
Nr. 16 HWV 452 g-moll
Also several late suites, i.e. HWV 443-445, 448-450, 453 are outliers as well. If you want to count more completely, William Babell's four lessons on Handel's improvisation playing from opera pit could be included. Handel's keyboard suites are very much underrated and marginalized. I wish more pianists could pay attention to this treasure where Beethoven absorded the full nutrition of it, you might find the trace of which in the 4th mov of his Eroica symphony and the Arioso of Op. 111.
Such delicacy of interpretation, in conjunction with Handel's elegance, can only satisfy our appetite for their expression.
Damn, where have Haëndel's Suites been all my life?
Friggin' gorgeous
He;s been playing Heid and Sieck (couldn't resist!)
The Suites were 2hot2 Haëndel😅
Haydn seeks Haëndel..
Mr. Heidsieck plays these wonderful gems with the "singing style" that was so much prized by composers of that era. His touch is by turns limpid, brilliant, sombre, and joyful as the case demands. This is one of the best recordings of the Handel suites that I've ever heard, and I am very glad that they are available here on You Tube "music lovers to refresh their spirits".
This is SO, SO ,SO GREAT!......and deep! Thank you Erick Heidsieck!
I'm in heaven and Handel's music and Heidsieck's performance have taken me there. Many many thanks for posting this
Exquisite, and with almost a Romantic twist. I love Handel, he is my favorite composer, and this new interpretation is gorgeous, thoughtful, and underlines Handel's versatility and breadth..
Heaven On Earth! This is transporting. Thank you!
Reims. Cela fait longtemps. Une merveilleuse retrouvaille ce soir. Merci Monsieur Heidsieck
Richter e Heidsieck: due grandi interpreti delle suites di Haendel. Mentre il primo offre un'esecuzione magistralmente misurata nella tecnica e nella sensibilità interpretativa, mai oltre le righe, com'è suo costume, il secondo affianca ad una tecnica di pari efficacia una certa coloritura quasi sensuale, morbida, oltre il barocco.
I cannot thank you enough for this awesome music and outstanding rendition! This is one of the rare pieces of music which I can listen to over and over. Such a beauty, lightness and transcendency! I always asked myself why there was no satisfying music for keyboard by Handel with regard to so many other great masterpieces by him - now I know I was altogether ignorant .... This is the discovery of the year for me!!! Thank you!!
Thanks to Eric Heidsieck :-)
I wholeheartedly agree with a comment made a year or so ago, and yet another made only last month. This is indeed Handel performed with sensitivity and great subtlety. Eric Heidsieck, where so many other pianists have failed, bridges the gap of transcription from the instruments of the period to the modern era with seemingly effortless ease. In itself no mean feat. The new mastering accentuates the acoustic, enabling the mastery, intelligence, and pianism of Heidsieck to shine through. For me there is no better performance of this repertoire.
Wasn't much a fan of Händel's music in general until I heard this recording. Now I feel there's so much more to explore and learn. Thank you for sharing.
I'm listening this from my apartment in Halle Saale, where this was written, lying in bed and watching the sunset.... Life is good with a phone and internet 😂😂
Te conformas con muy poco,como casi todas las personas de hoy día
Sometimes it just takes a little of something- to make a big change. It’s the simple things in life- that make it so memorable and meaningful
Vidéo que j'aime retrouver, en écoute doublée avec le son d'une rivière forestière, pour m'activer tout en légèreté au cours d'une matinée... Merci à Classical Music de partager avec nous tous cet excellent moment musical... Bravo à Eric Heidsieck !!!
A long, standing ovation for Maestro Heidsieck!!! Just listened to No. 5 (HWV 430), my first time with any recording of this pianist, whom it was my loss not to know of until now (as you can see, I both flaunt and regret my ignorance). This feels something like Keats's "On First Looking Into Chapman's Homer": hearing the suite in an utterly new way. The magic and beauty of interpretation in the right hands--the partnership of a superb performer with an immortal composer--it is as if Handel has now expressed something new to us. Maestro, je vous en remercie, de tout coeur. And now, on to the wonders of No. 2 (HWV 427)!!
As a newcomer to these Händel suites, No. 5 is currently my favourite and Heidsieck's rendering is simply heavenly. Richter's version is the one that first caught my attention, but once I listened more extensively and more carefully to this version, I was blown away. More singing and more dancing!
découverte ce soir
déprimée depuis des jours....
JOIE RETROUVEE à cette écoute!!!!
grand merci Mister Maestro HAENDEL et son virtuose interprète sir HEIDSIECK
A lovely interpretation - sublimely pianistic - of Handel's glorious keyboard suites. As with another commentator here, I have only more recently come across these works, and I though I knew much of Handel's music, and I have the recordings by Danny Driver. I didn't think these could be improved, perhaps not, but this is certainly a match, perhaps more limpid and caressing - almost romantic, and you know, there's no need to pretence of historically informed performance when the music is as beautiful as this. These suites are among my most re-played works, this recording reminds me why. Thank you Eric Heidsieck.
Merci. Une merveille. Haendel bien sûr, mais aussi un interprète limpide, aérien. Une évidence de jeu que je place (très subjectif bien sûr) dans ces œuvres au dessus du grand Richter que je vénère tant. Amitiés à vous tous mélomanes
The waters of the river of life that never stop flowing, sometimes calm and crystal clear, sometimes energetic and turbulent. The notes of the melodies reflect these moments... the most beautiful ones are when the brightness of the sun is reflected in the incessant flow of the waters... But, all moments (more or less bright or calm) are necessary. Life and its incessant melody... 🎼 🎹 🎶 🎵🎵 🎶🎶🎶 💗💐
Handel was the first great classic composer I loved as a young man. Now I am over 73 and still Handel (like Bach and the Beethoven piano sonatas) keeps surprising me. Beethoven admired Handel very much and I understand now perhaps why...Eric Heidsieck will become my favorite interpretation of this great collection, together with Richter,though I play Heidsiecks Handel more now....
Peter, I could sign my name to almost every detail of what you say! I too fell in love with Handel's music at age 10, though I somehow picked up a (mystifying and ultimately unjustifiable) patronizing disdain, slight but unmistakable, for Handel's music among certain cognoscenti. The knock on him, as I perceived it, was that his music was too programmatic, too "pop" if you will--the Water Music, above all--and presumably lacking Bach's profundity and/or complexity. I remember the feeling of gratitude and vindication on learning of Beethoven's reverence for Handel as "the master of us all." GFH has continued to surprise me and bring me joy my whole life; I began to transcribe some of the Water Music suite for piano, then came upon some pretty good transcriptions and have been learning it. I too admire Richter's Handel above all, and I too am stunned by Heidsieck's which I've just discovered. I now listen to both Richter and Heidsieck, chiefly, for Handel's keyboard suites. Gerard Aimontche, a young Russian pianist, does a wonderful job with No. 5 (Blacksmith), and I enjoy Alicia de Larrocha's interpretation too. But for me now, it's SR & EH that most engage me. These suites are a cornucopia.
I agree with your appreciation of this rendition. I’ve been listening to it for a while, ever since it came onto TH-cam. And each time I hear more and more. I’m 77 and am so happy to find someone who loves this as much as I do. Thanks for your post…….
@@carolwaugh5466- I'm way younger than you guys, but I agree with every word you wrote in these comments!
I've admired Haendel since I was a little boy, and once in a while I play through one or two of these magnificent suites on my piano which is really satisfying, musically as well as technically, since Haendel's writing is simply excellent.
Eric Heidsieck is an amazing pianist who is still active in the musical scene and who looks decades younger than he actually is! He is probably my favorite Haendel player if I had to pick one.
I could listen to these recordings all day!
Wonderful artist , how well he lets each voice singing separately, alternating ff and pp with a unique sense of the musical architecture
Grazie x aver condiviso tutto questo
Magnifici brani e magnifica esecuzione.
The most thrilling and profound interpretation of the Händel Suites!!!!
Sad to say, this magistral recording is virtually impossible to find. Heidsieck’s recording of the Handel Suites is a treasure.
Could not agree more. The only recordings I can find are used LPs on ebay. It's a crime. These recordings (originally, on multiple LP releases) deserve a re-master and re-release.
@@ScottPetersen the best is often elusive, momentary etc. I have come to value whatever I find. Here is magic! Rejoiceing!
I was recently researching one of my relatives who was alive in the 1700s. (I am not sure if I am a descendant of him or if we have a common ancestor.) I found a document that someone wrote about him that said that he was a musician and liked playing piano and the fiddle (I play the piano), and that he loved talking about Handel. It's awesome and crazy to think that he listened to and knew about this music all those years ago in the 1700s, and now I am listening to it. And I love it too!
Pensé que solo JSBach era capaz de escribir así.... esto no le va en zaga! Bien por Haendel y la magnifica interpretacion, aunque sea en piano, lo que incita a tocarlo tan "romanticamente", tan expresivo y no como era en su epoca donde los teclados no lo permitian. Pero suena muy agradable a nuestro oido de 2023, asi que bienvenido. ( sospecho que Haendel, Bach, D. Scarlatti y otros grandes tecladistas barrocos hubieran amado tener la posibilidad expresiva de los modernos teclados )
Underrated performer, playing hidden gems. Both deserve more recognition. These Suites are so expressive and a nice recreation from the more famous baroque works for keyboards.
Heidsieck is FLYING!.... and dear Händel was a poet! - and was admired by Bach, who was once asked, whom he would like to be and who answered:"Händel - if I weren´t Bach" - probably with a wink and a slight smile. He was very proud of the family, he belonged to. The Bach family was influential in the musical landscape.
Never heard Haendel like that... incredible
C'est LE meilleur Händel pour clavier que j'ai jamais entendu ! Moi, qui ne suis pas en général grand amateur de Händel, j'écoute bouche bée et ne peux pas me rassasier. Merci pour la diffusion et surtout merci à Monsieur Eric Heidsieck !
Love this player, such beautiful expression.The Grande Sarabande is one of the first baroque pieces I learned, now I am learning more about the Suites of Handel and love them so much.
Heidsieck is so expressive! His phrasing is absolutely beautiful. Also his trill and mordent ornamentation is amazing.
Yes, so expressive... Maybe too expressive for baroque music. But is nice.
@@DA-ok6rf Baroque was exuberant, look at the architecture and the texts of the cantatas and oratorios and Heidsieck highlights this better than anyone. Only in the 20th century some began to consider baroque music as an anemic, vegan and sterilised exercise.
merci mille fois pour cette intégrale jouée par ce pianiste d'exception qu'est Eric Heidseick. En l'écoutant j'ai l'impression de le connaître tel que vous le décrivez : une personnalité d'une intelligence humaine et musicale rare.
Wonderful pianist. Some pianists sound either generic or willfully eccentric in these pieces but Eric Heidsieck's has a very individual approach which is full of character and very convincing. Great stuff!
El grandioso Georg Friedrich, uno de los verdaderos y pocos genios musicales que este mundo dio, interpretado en un piano moderno y por un instrumentista maravilloso. Inmejorable.
¡¡Completamente de acuerdo con todas tus aseveraciones!!
very sensitive piano playing, relaxing , simply beautiful
С первых же звуков понятно, что исполнитель - выдающийся мастер мирового уровня. Для меня он - счастливое открытие. Спасибо за подборку!
スゴい❗
キースジャレットのヘンデルも心地よいが、ハイドシェックのピアノには痺れる。

Marvellous. Thanks for uploading.
Erik Heidsieck playing Handel, Marcelle Meyer playing Bach...I've been grieving since Oct. 2020, these recording are keeping me alive.
Rach, I'm sorry to hear of the pain your heart is experiencing, and can only imagine it may be sharpened now by the anniversary effect. At the same time, I'm grateful that these great partnerships (composer, performer, recording engineers) make it possible for you to find the solace you so sorely need. I wish you recovery, healing, and little by little the return of joy.
Rach, if I may suggest a performance that I find unutterably moving, dark, and brooding, yet also transformative and transcendent: The late, great Igor Zhukov's performance of his own piano transcription of Bach's Passacaglia & Fugue in C Minor, BWV 582, th-cam.com/video/tAUkximrwHw/w-d-xo.html. For me it is not possible to experience this performance without weeping, but the tears have much relief and life-affirmation mixed with the sorrow.
my actual favourite:
Erik Heidsieck playing Handel.
Yuan Sheng playing Bach
Marcelle Meyer playing Rameau
Here I found real gems, the pieces and the pianist as well. Thank you so much 'Classical Music' and Eric Heidsieck!
Magistral. Bravo. Chaque note est passionnante. LE GRAND ART.
I'm happy to see this monumental set of recordings is on TH-cam.
I came here from Richter's recording which is obviously stupendous however was too percussive for me, that "gripe" is down to the recording and instrument. As with every interpretation there are many variables. Right now am enjoying this thoroughly.
c'est très rare. personne ne sait plus qu'il y a un registrement d'oeuvre intégral de Haendel par Heidsieck. Merci beaucoup.
:-)
it's been quite sometime lately that I heard a piano recording this good, lyrical, well thought of and good pianism. Heidsieck has such beautiful tone and unlike most pianists, including Richter and Gavrilov, he doesn't treat Haendel lightly, he treats him seriously, with each phrase well considered, coupled with his lilting tone, even though his aethetism doesn't mean to be revolutionary or to shock with novelty, each piece is treated with refreshing beauty, even the most well worn Harmonious Blacksmith is given a satisfying twist with lovely dotted left hand bass that's musically more convincing than most pianists including de Larrocha. And I am sure most listeners here would be happy to find out that in the passacaglia of the 7th suite, Heidsieck added some of his Busonian transcription stuffs that breathes new life into the work.
try Murray Perahia for Handel. Exquisite!
I agree with your praise of Heidsieck’s work here but we part ways when you say Richter treats Handel lightly
Mille merci à M Éric Heidsieck, un Haendel magnifique. Merci encore
I was completely ignorant regarding Handel suites. Of course I knew his Messiah and sarabande and water music and fireworks. Moreover, I have no recollection of ever having heard Heidsieck before. My fault. The more one learns, the more these infinite expanses of ignorance grow around one. Not new, Socrates described this difficulty in his Apology. To no avail, I may add. Handel keyworks are a complete new world for me. The similarity to JS Bach suites and partitas is of course staggering. Seems to me that Handel was larger and more complex and sophisticated than normally thought. Perhaps his burying himself in London meant to stay outside of culturally richer Europe (i. e. , Italy, France and certainly Germany). Thanks Classical Music for unearthing and uploading this beautiful, precious music.
Une interprétation où la virtuosité le dispute à l’élégance délicieusement surannée du phrasé.
Si Sviatoslav Richter brille par la puissance de son interprétation, Éric Heidsieck nous offre la limpidité et la subtilité.
Dans les deux cas, les suites pour Clavier du très inventif Haendel sont magnifiées par ces pianistes hors pair...
Until now I knew Monsieur Heidsieck only from his worthy EMI recording of Beethoven's 32. This Handel offering is well played and in impeccable taste. I raise my glass of champagne to him!
Robert Groen me too!
Charles Heidsieck champagne ?
@@alainbrochet3120 I didn't know that: Eric was Charles's grandson
Thank you for all the annotations and added information, on top of this wonderful recording you have brought to us. I am deeply grateful.
absolutely brilliant playing... what a great recording
It is a real treasure! A fine piece of art. Thank you dear.
It's cornucopia which is
contained best of Handel.
Excellent and ingenious
rendition.
아름다운 피아노 연주곡 잘 들었읍니다~감사합니다~🎵🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤
:-)
LOVE THIS LOVE THIS LOVE THIS. All my most heartfelt thanks.
you welcome :-)
Händel's suites are amazing and ahead of their time. They remind me of Beethoven's piano works.
Beethoven considered Handel to be the greatest composer, above Mozart and Bach.
He was..indeed.at least..a match for..the great...máster s...
From another world. Thank you.
Beautiful
This is incredible. Thank you very much !
A sincere, deep appreciation 💜
I think he is the BEST pianist in the world..
so do I
Excellent music, thanks for sharing! As always your channel is the best!
Assolutamente vero! Il miglior Haendel!
Magnifique enregistrement! Subtilité, sensibilité, poésie, mais aussi fougue et virtuosité, quelle beauté! Un toucher extraordinaire; à chaque instant tantôt on rêve, on vit, on respire, ou bien on est suspendu ou embarqué vers les cieux, on ferme les yeux et on se laisse mener vers les merveilles de ce monde. BRAVO! Rappel du site internet officiel d'Eric Heidsieck: www.EricHeidsieck.net
Everything sounds better in French! Je vous remercie mille fois de votre bonté.
Brutal. Precioso.😢😢😢😢
What a brilliant way to start the NewYear 2022
VI.Passacaille (1:28:54) amazing performance. i loved this version.
He really händeled it. Bravo!
Dell(computer) couldn't hand his piano because Handel's piano was too hard to handel.
Quelle merveille
Merveilleux
Waw......Qeulle magination... Un savon de music
Exquisite!
Awesome performance !
INCREIBLE!!!!
Lovely. Thank you.
One of the recordings I use when working at my desk
É un'incanto. Tutto questo è stato creato dai umani. È incomprensibile, dio mio.
Fantástico.
My introduction to Händel was the Water Music and Fireworks suites, where he sounds really powerful and splendid, like a proper Baroque composer. This collection, however, came as a surprise to me - it sounds much more sophisticated, introverted, and modern; as if he had glimpsed the developments of the Romantic period. It seems as though this had been written by a different composer altogether, like the alchemical experiments Newton did at night, or Goethe's essays on colour theory.
Exactly!
that rising thing at 2:57 sounds like that rising violin part in that mozart piano concerto in A. # 23 or something. It's so beautful :')
Two great musical masters, Eric Heidsieck and Paul Tortelier playing the Beethoven 'cello sonatas together. A generation ago, Janos Sebestyen at harpsichord playing Handel. Today it would likely be Skip Sempe or Jean Rondeau.
what a treasure!
beautifull! thank you very much.
for myself
suite no.3 variation 1 32:23
suite no.7 passacallie 1:28:54
suite no.9 gigue 1:50:58
Well, ours tastes are similiar in this one
this is also an additional. 32:23
Haendel sounds even more " modern" than Bach and Mozart. Beethoven and many others seem to have incorporated much of Haendel's music. 🎉❤❤❤
Waouh! Thank you! 🌻
these are SO Beautiful and resonant! I like them better than Richter's
it is true that Richter is more analytical more metronomic :-)
I agree.
just put up a comment that I have come here from Richter. And in fairness to him it is his piano and recording that "let him down" but others may enjoy his interpretation and overall presentation.
Mr Heidsieck certainly brings something to this music he seems to be alone to have come to grip with. There are other fine pianists in Handel, my favorites are Gavrilov and Hewitt (only two items alas). But where most pianists play Bach and Handels suites approximately the same way Mr Heidsiecks renderings never could be mistaken to be music by Bach, a mistake I have experienced even listeners familiar with the idiom making from time to time. .
Richter a fait de très beaux extraits, ainsi que Sergueï Rachmaninov. Je ne connais pas très bien l'œuvre mais le piano est incontestablement beau.
Gavrilov a également enregistré un certain nombre des Keyboard suites, et je crois qu’il existe un enregistrement commun avec Richter qui doit rassembler pratiquement l’intégralité de ces œuvres
Flawless playing and musicianship. Nonetheless, Keith Jarrett's brilliant recording has to be THE recording of these magnificent suites.
GRANDIOSE SUPERBE SPLENDIDE
Holy smoke, am I crazy or does the Overture to Suite No. 7 almost sound like Haydn... or even Beethoven?!
Yes, agree!! Well, Handel was greatly admired by both. Haydn said, "He is the master of us all." Beethoven "He is the greatest composer who ever lived. I would uncover my head and kneel before his grave"
2:12:51 is my favorite music to be melodramatic to
It is a first time for me to hear this one.
Thank you very much!
Mil gracias
Langsomt lyset sænker sig mens jeg høre dette blide musik og befinder mig i verdner jeg ikke kender, tusind tak
Gracias !
Wonderful, as always with this great artist. Thanks for the great upload. Which years were these suites recorded?
