    I am fast running out of superlatives to describe Víkingur's skill as a concert pianist. He has persuaded me that J S Bach can be played on a modern piano - and sound wonderful! The sensitivity and tenderness with which he plays the second movement in this Bach arrangement of Marcello takes my breath away! Bravissimo!🎉❤

    In the 70 years I have been a piano fanatic, I have heard many great pianists live and on record. I have watched the emergence of young pinaists from competitions to great carreers (eg Andras Schiiff and recently Erick Lu). Wonderful musicians with wonderful fingers. A handful however stick in the memory. There are a few that have made me fall off my chair. All heard on the BS program "Recording of the week# in 1959, André Tchaikovksy (the great reluctant pianist). In 1969 Radu Lupu who the communists tried to ruin his chances in the Leeds Competition. And Vikingur Olafasson, the programm played the Bach-Stradal and I am still recovering. I spend hours at the piano trying to copy and understand how he does it. In the end it's simply genius.

      Well I will try fist in English. In fact your understanding is not up to my langage but more about your level of awareness I give you an exemple : I have always been interested in "spirituality" and practice meditation. At the age of 13 I was playing the 1 impromptu Chopin but I stopped playing piano . 20 years later, I start again but had almost forgot every thing
      So I meditate once asking to recover my level and THE DAY AFTER I had it.it works for me because I KNEW that "the other side" will provide it to me.
      And now (25 years later) I know that what you ask with your heart and when you know that this wish is already happended , it manifest
      So , even if you do not meditate, ask with your heart to play the next level, knowing that the Universe give to you already and you will do.

    Please do not forget that it is actually a transcription of the Concerto for Oboe and Strings in D minor op.1 by Alessandro Ignazio Marcello. Its worth was affirmed by Johann Sebastian Bach, who transcribed it for harpsichord (BWV 974). A number of editions have been published, including an edition in C minor to accommodate the baroque oboe, which was played a whole tone lower than the modern oboe.

    Listened to him playing on the radio few days ago and immediately looked for him on youtube. I am still listening... He makes an extreme usage of dynamics (which is not always suggestable with Bach) but it does it so meaningfully that it is a pleasure for hears. He also balances it very well with a solid sense of timing

    • @robertodebeers2551
      @robertodebeers2551 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @kooistradurk 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Well, Bach was commissioned to transcribe the oboe concerto. Which was standard practice. If the oboe concertos were not transcribed it would not have become this well known. Marcello gets attributed for the original composition and Bach for the transcription.same goes for the other Italian concerto's from the Weimar period. But not many will be compelled to lament wrongful attribution of Vivaldi because he's well known in his own right.
