Should it be true that J.S. Bach actually composed the Goldberg Variations as a sleeping aid for Graf Keyserlingk, then Evgeni Koroliov, born 1949 in Moscow, must have succumbed to a misapprehension. The further he proceeds in the series of variations of this colossal opus, the more wide-eyed the audience turned out to be. Koroliov’s performances of Bach’s music usually arouse great excitement and his rendering of Bach’s famous Aria and 30 variations is no exception. The breathtaking intensity develops out of his natural virtuosity. Koroliov is a consummate artist and he convinces his listeners through an enormous spiritual understanding of the works he performs and in whose service he puts the wide range of his artistic and interpretative abilities. In a cooperation with the Bachfest Leipzig, EuroArts has produced a recording of an exciting recital with this extraordinary phenomenon on the international piano scene - the best way to experience a famous yet demanding and certainly immensely important work by Bach.

Thank u so much
Thanks
Thanks
Love the freedom of the ornaments. This is genuinely an "interpretation" rather than merely "playing it". A real pleasure to listen to.
,
바흐곡을 찾다가 이분 연주를 보았어요~한국에도 오셔서 부부가 연주를 하셨다는데 연주가 섬세하고 아름답습니다
LOVE IT, no stupid faces expressions, perfect touch, and the ornaments are on point!!! My favourite interpretation of this piece so far
Eine hervorragende Interpretation von Bachs Goldbergvariationen, beseelt und technisch brillant vorgetragen ! Danke
The best! I love it. Espcially 21 and 25..so beautiful. Thank you Evgeny Koroliov!
Keep coming back to this performance... ♥️
My favorite performer in this Bach cycle.
Played with passion - beautiful!!
Da musicista mi inchino davanti alla grandezza di questa esecuzione!!! un grande
Excellent. Especisally number 21. Perfectly beautiful 🌹
Beautiful interpretation and execution. Bravo.
La más perfecta ejecución de las variaciones Goldberg, Koroliov es brillante y claro en su expresión. Una caricia para el alma.
I love his rendering of the G. Variations. Still, Gould stands tall above all other pianists.
@@camandresjl he really doesn't tbh
Thanks for spreading and sharing this wonderful execution!
Execução da mais absoluta excelência. Verdadeiramente fantástico o andamento, a clareza, o toque e a execução dos ornamentos. BRAVÍSSIMO!!!

One of the best versions of Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg BWV 988 Variations circulating on the net. Without forgetting the historical version of Glenn Gould, of course.
Agreed, and much better than Andras Schiff's, which is too fast.
@@laurenth7187 András Schiff is way overrated
@@laurenth7187 7uii777uukiuk i II 6l
I've never liked Glenn Goulds interpretation. Is seems to sacrifice expression for speed. A bit like a machinegun on piano rather than a masterpiece. There is no accounting for taste but Bach and the barok in general to me feel a little off when they are played to quickly. The beautiful interlocking of tones seems to get lost at too much speed.
@@agneteht Agreed. Also Gould's constant vocal humming in the background interfered with almost every recording, and that spoilt it for me.
Великолепное, эталонное исполнение. Особенно люблю вариации 1 и 30. Лёгкие, воздушные мелизмы. Очень красивый звук. Браво, Маэстро!
I love this reading of the Goldberg Variations BWV 988 made by Evgeni Koroliov, because Evgeni loves, and we love him, to repeat all the refrains, as for the score compiled by Johann Sebastian Bach himself.
Many thanks EuroArtsChannel for this remarkable rendering of the Goldberg variations by Evgeni Koroliov.He is one more of the generation of gigantic Russian pianists, staying active since the. XX century. He shares with the Russian school (Sokolov, Richter) a delicate perfection in his technique, a deep musicality, a transparent architecture, decisive digitation, His reading of the music is clear and convincing. This video from the 2008 Bachfest in Leipzig shows a mature artist in full display of his resources. Before hearing this Goldberg, I had heard him in a delicate, almost romantic version of Les Adieux, demonstrating his versatility.
This is the most beautiful thing that i’ve ever heard on my life. Thanks Maester Evgeni Koroliov, and Hannibal Lecter.
My favourite interpretation after Gould.
Did you ever listen to Angela Hewitt's performance? Sublime.
My favourite interpretation also, ahead of Gould.
@@IvanGreindl I very much agree. Her versions is so personal and evocative, she sometimes goes to the very edge of expressiveness, yet nothing is out of balance from the implicit intention of the work. Only masters can achieve that.
I love Angela Hewitt's version.
Agree
Wspaniałe !!!
Wonderful!
Una gravacion Diafana👍 e IL tempo🙏
this is marvelous, as good as gould, comes down to stylistics preferences, addictive as always when played well
Thank you Bach!!
DIZER O QUE, DIANTE DE TANTA BELEZA ??? SOMENTE SONHAR NA TRILHA DOS ACORDES E MELODIAS... AGRADECENDO A KOROLIOV, POR TER UM CÉREBRO TÃO ILUMINADO !!!
there's grace in his bach
what is the most pure moment played in the rhythm of Goldberg variation is done by love for Glenn Gauld,
아름답습니다 😊
Great Performance ...
Masterpiece
Non plus ultra !!!
L'interprétation du 25e variation est absolument monumentale! Elle dépasse is celle de n'importe quel pianiste, y compris Gould.
Bravissimo!
Favorite interpretation yet, wonderful 💖
If an alien species were to visit earth 🌎 and wanted to know about the best human music you would tell them to listen to Mozart....telling them to listen to Bach would just be showing off. 👽
¡ Soberbia interpretación !
Seré un exagerado pero a mí me parece que esta es la mejor música que se ha escrito nunca
최고의 골든베르크 아리아
wonderful! (the best interpretation of Bachs composition I have ever heard, also better than the versions of Gould, Lang Lang or Sokolov)
Lastima , q interrupen para meter published next
😊✨️🔅🎶💓🎶🔅✨️
Одно из лучших исполнений этого произведения в академическом стиле.
30:45
I like it also very much but still prefer the version of Andras Schiff on his wonderful Bösendorfer piano.
Very good but it’s also supposed to give you goosebumps, doesn’t it?
55
I do not rate the various interpretations. They are all wonderful. I like very much the slower interpretation of Lang Lang.
Bach mica suonava con uno strumento come questo super sofisticato...
hai visto l'organo nel quale suonava? non dirmi che quello non è sofisticato
One does not just find this pianist on the beach. (Portuguese saying, sorry for my disgustingly weak English, which I am thoroughly and deeply ashamed of).
Can't top Glen Gould interpretation.
lol
