      More technique has a pianiste, less pedal he will use with Bach's music.

    Wonderful performance, just as we all expect from this man. How fortunate we are to be able to enjoy such mastery. There are many great pianists, but Mr Perahia is my #1. His keybed touch, his refusal to let his own persona get in the way of the works he plays and his sometimes playful but always sensitive interpretations are sublime in the extreme.

      Schiff is wonderful, but can be a little too mannered and gimmicky for me in spots. Hewitt is really splendid, but rushes some of her tempi a bit. (Baroque does not always equal prestissimo, or vice versa.) And this new kid Vikingur Olafssohn (sp?) is going to be one to watch. But Perahia? Perahia plays like an archangel, and does it _all the time_. That's wonderful and a little spooky.

      @@rainadkins4827 Fully agreed, I think form a student perspective Perahia consistently has the answers in relation to the written score - extremely accurate readings. I particularly appreciate this precision in relation to the ornementation. When in doubt on some score detail, he remains for me the reference number one as much as I do like others. Personally this is a great quality - there are so many "interpretations" that try to make the score say what it doesn't say. This faithfulness to the score establishing the foundation of his performance, Perahia can then express his awesome musical talent. It really is the complete picture to my way of thinking. Absolutely great.

  • @lourak613

    The secret to Perahia's sublime artistry, is his complete shunning of effect and affectation. Arbitrary expressive gestures are also never to be found. It is the text and solely the text that interests him. Add to this, a healthy emotional and aesthetic approach to the music, and no small measure of good taste in phrasing and articulation - and quite a large dose of astute analysis of the work at hand - and there you have it - one of the greats of our time...

    • @paulmayerpiano

    Ohhhh that wonderful Murray Perahia touch is a thing of beauty. There are literally hundreds, if not more, great pianists from the past and the never ending present but there are only a handful that play on a meta level such as Mr. Perahia. Richter, Brendal, Argerich, and the list goes on and on...... To me it's ludicrous to say one musician is better than another. They are all giving there all so what more can one ask for pray tell!! Just enjoy whoever touches your soul.....

      In 1991, he had a simple paper cut on his thumb. Just as most people would do, he ignored it. It got badly infected, however, and the antibiotic that was given to him made him extremely sick. Later on, something--maybe the previous infection--caused the bone in the thumb to become misaligned. He had a couple of surgeries on it, and there were long periods during which he couldn't play.

    this is bach coming from the soul and communicated directly to the soul. perahia actually demonstrates in his playing how a deep knowledge of counterpoint and voice leading can help one take musical expression to another dimension, and that the point of understanding these musical forces is first and foremost to inform the expression of the music. the expression in the music arises in a completely natural way from the actual harmonic and contrapuntal content, the motion of these musical forces, their relationships, progressions, etc., and is not something that is merely imposed onto the music from outside. it arises from within the music. the relationship between moving voices is not just in the foreground of the music but can also be heard and felt in the so-called middleground, and the voice leading occurring at this level is typically what gives overall shape and direction to the surface. really being able to perceive the musical forces in this way is what gives someone like perahia the ability to *speak* the music, rather than just play it. just like with speaking a language, there are natural inflection patterns, the natural rise and fall of the rhythmic patterns of stress and intonation. these pieces are statements.

    I've heard pianists of great, great stature, plummeting the enormous soul of Bach, who used pedal and so forth as a means. The only thing that really matters is living in the aesthetic depth of great music, and Bach is the greatest of all great music. Talk about authenticity and period instruments.....well, 99.999% of performances inordinately based on these musicological considerations fall into inertness , lifelessness, where the letter is observed by not the meaning, where the map is obsessed on leaving the territory not only unrendered, let alone even recognized. Disembodied intellectualism, an effect of extreme post-modernist musicology and theory, is, at best, of secondary import. Great art is about form, yes, but more importantly content. Depth.

      This has been on the back of my mind for a while now. I think if you practice without pedal, and try to get the effect of pedaling through your fingers, then you add pedal later it shoots it into a whole different stratosphere. Very hard to put into words. Its like the notes are in your memory, but also still there with the pedal. WIthout pedal has a different cleaner quality, but maybe not as much depth. Then you can change finger pedaling. I have no idea which way is the best, if there is such a thing. Theyre just incredibly different. You can abuse pedal though

    i have to Play Allemande and courante as a degree in School and i have 8 weeks to practise, such a godlike Peace with the Beautiful Christmas key … i think 8 weeks is not enough to experience the Bach Feeling to Play it from your Soul, my teacher needed 30 years for the Goldberg variations then at age 40 he dared to Audition!

    Bach.. the father of the Classic, Romantic era. Not to forget that he was the Lord of the Baroque.

    Wow. I just listened to all 6 of his English Suites, scrolling score, and I don't think he uses the pedal AT ALL. I can see here that he seems to barely touch it, rhythmically, but I think what you are hearing is more a result of the recording, mic placement, and a very live room. What a fantastic artist! Maybe the best ever. BTW, he ignores the printed slur markings in the English Suites(!)

    I can't listen to Bach when I'm at work or studying because my mind just gets too involved with the music.

      Same such music is not background music. It is a precise art not to be ignored.

      Matthew Ferrara so true all the comments on yt about doing homework etc whilst listening to classical music like this .? I can't see how they can do it without getting involved this isn't background cocktail bar music

      Music is not meant to be "background" music or "wallpaper music"

    • @edenlowry
      @edenlowry 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Agree that this is anything but background music; it's a masterpiece. However I find that just getting inside Bach's head helps me focus at work like nothing else. I borrow his orderliness.

      @@samspianos Music is the universal artform, impervious to shallow labels of any kind. It does not have to be what you think it's meant to be, so long as it is the usage of sound in an artistic manner, it is music.
