You know, I'm not a musicologist. I do not play any instruments. I am a common average working man. A mechanic specifically. Therefore I have no right to be a critic of musicians. I just love the sound of this guy. Sviatoslav Richter. Whatever he plays seems like the hand of God guides. I can not explain it better than that. It's as much a mystery to me as the great cosmos above.
In my opinion, Richter (as well as most other truly great musicians), would have been especially moved your comment. These artists are not playing for musicologists, but rather for people from all walks of life who are moved by great music.
Carissimo, non potevi dirlo meglio di così: Richter ha un suono speciale. Da frande interprete qual è rende comprensibile a tutti anche pezzi così concettuali come questi di Bach , di non immediata comprensione.
Well, I'm nobody so I can criticize everyone whenever I want, but I agree: he was godlike and absolutely flawless in Bach. His Wohltemperierte is still unsurpassed - not too much extravagant, neither dull, but first and foremost: he doesn't mumble when he plays.
Grande esecuzione. Il timbro di Richter è bellissimo.. la leggerezza, il canto, l'intensità...il ritmo!!! il suono attiva tutto il nostro corpo. Grazie x questa gioia regalata 😍
Heavenly music thanks to Sviastoslav Richter, one of the best performers of Bachs compositions. The ultimate poet and artist, emotionally so gifted and talented. In my opinion so much better than Schiff. It is a pity so few people listen to Richter compared to Schiff ( with 4,8 million hits on TH-cam), while this is of quite another level. Schiff plays much more monotonous, more mechanical. Another French Suite nr 6 in E BWV 817 is uploaded by Yuriy Bokhonoff on TH-cam. Also a true gem!
Yes, for me Richter is unrivalled regarding the level of playing nearly all of Bachs compositions. Not only this French Suite. He is the ultimate poet and artist and communicator. Emotionally very talented and gifted. Another beautiful French Suite nr. 6 in E (BWV 817) is uploaded by Yuriy Bokhonoff on TH-cam.
"Et Bach ? C'est... L'univers, beau, immense, serein, Eternité tranquille et toujours jeune ; amour Des hommes et de Dieu, d'hier et de demain, Du souvenir qui vit et renaît chaque jour ; L'univers tout entier dans le creux de la main..." I simply love Richter's touch - this is the Bach I grew with. Pure, eternal, simple yet divine... Gould's approach of Bach is amazing too, but too "strange" in many ways for me to sympathize with it. With Richter, I feel at home...
In the past, I used to love Gould so much and his all interpretations of Bach. Then later on learning about other great pianists, I came to confess that there are more frank, more touchy interpretations. For me now Richter has a feeling, ein Gefühl, something felt in, rather than dictating the piece. This may be related to his assumption about recording. He didnt like recording at all. You may only record in your mind in your heart ,it is a fact. I am lucky to be Richters contemporary.
No, actually those two are fast because they have triplets and 16ths built in. But in the case where there are no 16ths (like in this courante) the perceived tempo is naturally slower because of no 16ths. You can read my article from a few years ago in Clavier titled "Of Bach and Courante Tempos", sorry but I forget the year and issue # at the moment. Also, visit my website, which has extensive information on Bach's tempos.
Рихтер идеально передаёт смысл музыки классиков. Вся его виртуозность и техника подчинены только произведению. В его исполнении нет того самолюбования, которое есть почти у всех исполнителей. Все средства художественной выразительности, штрихи, динамика, звуковедение, все направлено на передачу образа! Это поразительно! Есть только глубина! Это как смотреть в гладь чистейшего озера и не видеть его, а видеть бездонное небо, а возможно и всю вселенную...
This is really excellent. God, this is in a totally different class than many of Yudina's recordings. Better expression, better sound. Just plain better, period. Almost everyone is unaware though, that this particular courante is actually a slow piece but it's always played allegro. Had Bach wanted it faster like allegro he would have notated it in 3/8 rather than 3/4 because this was the established convention of the time.
Much faster than Gould's interp. of the first mvt. I can't decide which is better. I love it either way. They are the best two for Bach, albeit polar opposites. Haha
Hmm, now that i've listened to this, I prefer his later 1991 over this recording, for the reason that the sound that old Richter could get out of the piano... simply beautiful. Not to mention it's easier to get hehe... ty very much for posting as always :)
Гаврилов всегда понимал , что никогда не доберётся до вершины по имени Рихтер , завидовал и гадил втихаря, и сейчас вместо того , чтобы заниматься искусством , занимается пустой трепатней , и не переставает лить грязь на Россию , согласна с вами полностью
Richter and Gould use the same ornaments because they are educated in the style of J.S. Bach and of baroque era keyboard playing. It is not necessarily because they heard one another play a certain piece. Certain types of ornaments are appropriate at certain times and are not always written in. Ornamentation and embellishment were expected skills of all baroque era keyboardists.
What????? Although pianists comparison are somehow pointless, Richter is 100 times better than Gould. And in any possible imaginable respects! Gould is one of the most overrated pianists in history
Sorry, it is quite the opposite: Gould is human withal his limitations, while Richter is far above the human level in his understanding of all different kinds of composers an performs music of unearthly quality!!
@embenadorfinearts let Bach be Bach (read the book: Goedel Esher Bach). I suggest you do some more research and come to yourself by letting Sviatoslav Richter show you what the music of Bach could mean to your soul.

Some of the finest Bach playing upon the piano we will ever be privileged to hear!
Как же светло становится на душе, просто физически ощущается, слушая небесные звуки гениального Мастера!
The Allemande is so beautiful, standing entirely on its own with no need for anything.
Как всегда какое-то необъяснимое волшебство! И всегда трогает до глубины души...
I love the Allemande of that suite sooo much....
Such a tender piece incredibly soothing!
I play the Allemande of suite now .
Vraiment trop beau,Richter restera toujours l'un des meilleurs pianistes,si ce n'est le meilleur,merci pour cet enregistrement magnifique.

As well as extraordinary clarity Richter brings humanity to this sublime music.
Oh wow, I find myself coming back and listening to this practically every day! Amazing I love it so much!

Go ahead and cry, but cry tears of joy for this is perfection

Absolutely agreed :)

How sublime!! I love this sweet Melody..
This is like being in heaven~
The Allemande is nothing short of miraculous. Such beautiful execution. He makes it seem easy to play LOL.
you are gay its not easy

Великие люди! И Бах и Рихтер. Это надо же такую музыку сочинить. А так сыграть! Прикосновение очень...
Yes, this is a storm of applause...
It should be 1977 but I'm not completely sure.
Свет играл так раскованно, легко, воздушно.. словно приятный ветерок; играл так, как наверное не один из величайших пианистов XX века не играл...
Он играет вечно. Все плохое отступает от души от этой музыки, ГЕНИЙ Бах...

Dude is a complete monster at playing piano live.
Thank you ! It is appreciated. Best regards.
Godamm Bach is genius!
shut up bitch
Me too! 🕹️➕🌐❤️🍀🇱🇻
The allemande of the second french suite played by his majesty SR....Can it get any better ?
No

So easily throwing words at the greats. Richter respected Yudina, that's what great people do.
La introducción de esta pieza hace levantar la vista al cielo y soñar a cualquiera... que tenga sensibilidad.
Much faster than Gould's interp. of the first mvt. I can't decide which is better. I love it either way. They are the best two for Bach, albeit polar opposites. Haha
they did certainly hear and admire each others playing though
из всех исполений понравилось больше всего
это же РИХТЕР
さすがリヒテル🤗🌈🍀
O M G
Do we know when and where this performance took place?
truecrypt you know we adore Richter, and so you must tell us the year this was recorded! :D
А где можно послушать последние части этой сюиты? Или они не были записаны?
People who find this" relaxing" are not listening.Your ears and soul should be fully awake and in tune..
@bonsema1 70 AUDIENCE? Man, you really packed that assisted-living center.
What's with the bad sound in the beginning? Is that applause??? What year is this from?
Hmm, now that i've listened to this, I prefer his later 1991 over this recording, for the reason that the sound that old Richter could get out of the piano... simply beautiful.

Sound with 64 kbps MP3 quality.
i think i am back on the dark site of youtube again
You are quite wrong about the studio recordings; a considerable amount -- I would say 50% -- of Richter's released recordings are studio performances.
4:51
3:05
Ofcourse it's applause... what else would it be dude? Richter didn't do much studio recording, most of his pieces are from live performances.
не понимаю ,как можно сравнивать Рихтера и Г аврилова?сколько же он гадостей написал о Рихтере,ему как до луны расти...
Гаврилов всегда понимал , что никогда не доберётся до вершины по имени Рихтер , завидовал и гадил втихаря, и сейчас вместо того , чтобы заниматься искусством , занимается пустой трепатней , и не переставает лить грязь на Россию , согласна с вами полностью
@truecrypt to me it sounds like bad encoding of the audio track
6:56 is that right?
Mariano Castillo Yes

******* shit in homework!!!
Jhh
I'm trying to understand your illusive statement.
Too fast?
I'm not so enthusiastic. In the Allemande, he puts some mechanical accents (hear at 0:21 ) that, in my opinion, are not in the spirit of the work.
Без обид, но Рихтер не "Бахинист"! Это не его "пальто"! Его "конёк" - Серёжа Рахманинов! Это бомба!

Shame on you for mixing Bach Magnus with crap like cumbia.
