For many years I have loved and enjoyed listening to Bach‘s Partitas, thanks to many excellent interpreters. But I had never before experienced and discovered in such a way the utmost beauty, for example, of the Allemande of this Partita 1 until I heard this Scott Ross version, that allows not just to pass thru a beautifully designed place with beautiful flowers, but to be blessed by their scent and sublime arrangement, to be enlightened by the artistry and love and tenderness in Bach‘s poetry.
La genialità con cui Ross interpreta gli abbellimenti, le micro variazioni agogiche e dinamiche (nonostante il clavicembalo tenda ad una dinamica appiattita), la poetica delle frasi estratta meravigliosamente rendono queste esecuzioni bachiane un punto di riferimento assoluto nella storia dell'interpretazione del Genio di Eisenach e rendono evidente come lo strumento principe per suonare questi capolavori resti il clavicembalo...........................
Without a doubt and, in my opinion, it isn't even a close match despite there being other great recordings. I am hopeful that young Jean Rondeau is able to produce something of the calibre. Indeed, by now it seems too unlikely that his performance of the Partitas, when and if he decides to take them on, would be anything short of great. Thus far his recordings are, to my ear, ripe in intention, disposition, discernment... and the right kind of malice, what makes so many of Ross' recordings stand in a league of their own.
@@aspdenmark The Goldberg is one of few of Ross’ recordings which isn't among my favourite of whatever piece. I did enjoy Rondeau’s (the CD version, more so than the one here). With regard to Soler's Fandango. The piece so blatantly asks of the performer a certain temperament…a furor, an elusive derangement…a fire behind the eyes which is utterly lacking in Rondeau's take, and teeming almost dangerously in Ross'.
I'm a great admirer of Ross (his Scarlatti is out of this world). Just in general Ross's judgement of tempi, inflections, ornaments, etc. always strikes me as just right; so I'm very hesitant to even suggest that he pushes the Praeludium and the Gigue a bit here. But there you have it: that's how they strike me. Still, since it's Ross, I'll probably come around some day to agreeing with him.
BWV 825 , buscando por doquier el Menuet I y sólo lo encontraba en piano. De pronto , como un milagro leo Scott Ross y allí estaba el cielo en 14:23 . Magnífico !!!
J'aime le tempo coulant et chantant - et songeur dans la deuxième partie - qu'il donne à l'Allemande. Je n'aime pas les pianistes, même de grands virtuoses, qui la jouent presque staccato.

Scott Ross makes me want to really play music. The tempos of each of these movements are just so ... pff ... heavenly.
Yes I agree. Temp and a very steady pulse. Something that too many people take liberties with.
Bach's Partitas gold standard.

Thank you
@@aakarshitsingh1535 you're very welcome :)
Precise, but still fluid. I love this way of playing Bach.
C'est d'une très grande clarté, et d'une grande beauté
By far the best performance of these partitas. Still to be equalled.

@@cfeaugas I agree. However, some of Rondeau's takes (Goldberg, or Soler's Fandango) are not very artistic(?). And Rondeau is 31, Ross died at 38.

@@cfeaugas Thanks for this elaboration which helps me appreciate your perspective more. Thumbed up!
@@cfeaugas What do you dislike about Ross' Goldbergs?

He was so cerebral in his approach to performance, like a rocket scientist in his precision of thought
Still learing, still exploring, and still haven't heard ANYONE better on the harpsichord.
Jean Rondeau?
@@juliak8093 I will check out this player, thanks for the suggestion🙏
metric, agogics, tempi, also all sounds are so ideal, so absolutely perfect!
Magnifique! Fantastique! Super!🤩😍
1:49 For me to listen to it again and again
The best interpretation of allemande in my opinion
Grandissimo musicista.
Esecuzione meravigliosa.

Grandissima musica, splendida interpretazione 😎
Wunderschöne Musik - wunderbar gespielt. Vielen Dank für diese perfekt gespielten Meisterwerke 🌹
È sempre stato un grande!!!
Thanks very very much 🙏 🙏 🙏
南無阿彌陀佛 感恩謝謝您 感恩合十
Maravilloso!!!!
Such a beautiful gift you gave me, Thank you so much. P.S. I’m a Scott Ross fan
Love the harpsichordists, pianists tend to race through the Allemande. And he makes the bass line sing in 2 voices, like it should be.
Exactly ! I thought I was alone ! Thank you.
I love the temp of the allemande here, as well. It really rings out, kind of hypnotic.
Esta grabación de las 6 partitas es tan fresca y brillante que tengo que aceptar que supera incluso la de Trevor Pinnock.
14:23 Menuet II... Les miettes d'Alexandre Astier... 😍
Perfection
Great. Thanks.
voici Bach en sa grandeur,admiration
Grateful 🙏 🙏 🙏

Thx you
