Possibly the best performance of this beautiful Bach cembalo conc No. 1. I can listen it to every day.
Absolutely priceless footage, thank you. I used to have a 60 mile round trip commute to the office... one day I purchased the 11-CD Decca set (recorded in the mid-1980s) of Schiff playing Bach's complete keyboard works. For the next 14 years Andras Schiff singlehandedly save me from losing my sanity in rush hour traffic. Thank you Maestro!
Such enlightened artistry at such a young age, absolutely marvelous!
Actually its the whole concerto thankfully and not the first movement only. Great playing even though he came 3rd!
Just saw Sir Andràs Schiff live at Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts. He is simply amazing!
Same here, sat in the second row. He was phenomenal!! A class act 🙌
@@1212hjb lol i was in the second row!!! only for the second half though. I wonder if we came across each other...
Wow! We hope you had a fantastic time.
@@estrobart6785 we were sat in the very middle, right about where his feet were...
@@1212hjb was it at the Kauffman Center in Kansas City?
Oh wow what a gem!
Wow, playing like this in 1975 was definitely not common. The interpretation still feels fresh after nearly 50 years.
Bach, so gespielt, wie ich es liebe.
Bravo!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏
I cannot hold myself and listen to this concert almost once a week. It is an amazing interpretation, Andras is living inside the music of Bach.
Do you also agree that Sir Andras Schiff is the best player of Bach? Watch his newer performance of this piece with the Berlin Philharmonic orchestra; it is just as good
@@Danleesixoneonetwofive Absolutely. he was and is still the new Glenn Gould, Thanks, I saw it and it is amazing, I believe that the new one is his mature version of the fascinating 1052
@@JorgeRzezak yes, I love the new recording. And I think he is a very mature soul in general. There is no decadence, nor indulgence. Just pure humility and dedication to music as envisioned by Bach.
@@Danleesixoneonetwofive I totally agree with you. Andras is living the music of Bach and make us the same effect. Also as you said, I love his humility, he does not need to be a divo.
@@Danleesixoneonetwofive BTW, I see that you love Beethoven. Me too.
Amazing performance, so many tough parts, played flawlessly in cold blood.
Mr.Schiff looks so young, yet, his finger dexterity seems to be an ever Green Tree !
As a hungarian, I’m proud that he’s a part of our national and musical heritage. Me who was playing the piano since I was a little kid is delighted to see this much talent. Now I study new pieces/play old ones only for my or my family’s delight.
Schiff is one of the few people that can play a piece with real intensity, because you see in my opinion you can’t truly be passionate about a piece if you’re not playing from memory. And this is the reason why I love hearing/seeing him play.
We couldn't agree more! Thank you for sharing your story.
Third?? WHAT ??? So much for competitions ! Reminds me of Fred Astaire's audition ..Can't sing Can't act Can dance a little ! Andras Schiff is brilliant !
who is better? Andas Schindler or Glenn Gould?
@@Boreykom Gould a little
@@Boreykom Schiff >>> Gould. =)
@@Boreykomgould is legend
I was there and a lot of us thought he should have been 1st; BUT he came 3rd to amazing playing from Mitsuko Uchida 2nd, playing the Schumann, and Dmitri Alexeev 1st, playing the Prokofiev 3rd.
And now the fresh-faced young man is now Sir Andras, the grand old man of Hungarian pianism! Wonderful performance!
Beautiful
ВИРТУОЗНО,ПРЕКРАСНО, НЕПЕРЕДАВАЕМО!! СПАСИБО, МАЭСТРО!!!!!!!
Andras Schiff is so good at playing Bach!
This is a bold and fresh take! I love the change in registers and the ornaments
You're right. I overlooked the ornamentations and the trills........ entirely. I'm just so use to him being the authority. Personally, I would like to hear these works played on the instrument for which they were written. The Harpsichord. But not the piano as we know it. The piano forte doesn't have that high pitched cling and silver clarity that the harpsichord has. I'm a student of the grand organ. Blessings on your day.
Just wonderful.
На одном дыхании!!! Полное погружение в состояние медитации- это совершенно! Это великолепно ❤Спасибо большое 🙏
Absolutely gorgeous playing❤
Fantastic performance!
Magnificent !!
Блестяще! Великолепно! Маэстро~гений. Всем музыкантам спасибо,! Браво!
thank you for this pearl of piano
thank you for this!
Amazing performance.
Joyous Youth, wonderful!
Andras Schiff is Brillian, Bravissimo!!!!!
Mein Lieblingskonzert von Bach. Am liebsten höre ich es, wenn Polina Osetinskaya es spielt 🤩

BRAVO!
I get the feeling that Charles Groves would rather have a seat and watch the performance!
Belíssima execução.
absolutamente!
ÚNICO....!!!!

CHAPEAU...!!!
若い頃のシフ、カッコ良すぎる😆
ほんと、それな❤
Wow!!! Guao!!!
i wonder if he regretted momentarily making that embellishment at about 1'28" into the first movement - I love Schiff's embellishment of Bach which always sound as if Bach had written them himself but it makes him do a rare whoopsie! his recording of this concerto on Decca with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe is wonderful and even better than this, the slow movement in that recording is heartbreaking. And who knew Colonel Sanders has a second job?
Sir Charles was known as Sir Bogbrush by the wits of the Royal Liverpool, because of the bristly beard and because of an embellished photograph that went around the orchestra at the time.
Actually I'm not a fan of Bach being played on the piano and prefer the harpsichord. I often wonder, though if performers of Bach's keyboard music actually feel the presence of the great man, as he wrote for himself and he was by all accounts a great show off. I feel in this concerto the wonder of Bach's own technique.
Back when he was still using pedal... So much richer and better in my opinion!
I like jean rondeau's interpretation of allegro more, not only because it's on a harpsichord, but also because I prefer the sharper tone, here it feels too mellow
good friends
...and also the organisers completely disrespected him and Bach by not bothering to position the strings into a more acoustically sensible formation but put them so the additional players could come on for the Schumann and Prokofiev without having to rearrange the platform. That would never happen today.
Indeed, the chamber orchestra along with the conductor had barely passable coherence. Somewhat understandable in the make-shift / ad hoc situation. At least the piano remained prominent in this recording, albeit with some poor tuning.
Inchi es talis??? Ever wondered???
His ability to 'sing' with both hands was noticed early on. His skills have obviously matured. I wonder what he would be like with gin and tonic?
Not even a teaspoon!
Niatshe.. Nishiy
why he plays in the high octave in solo of third movement???
Because, as a true artist, he need not adhere to the music as notated. Fresh interpretation. Beautiful effect, don't you think?
@@messrtwinky You are right!
Senki nem tud úgy Bachot játszani, mint Schiff András.
Egyetertem teljesen. A mester!

People work harder before they achieve celebrity status
sorry, but bach was NOT a fan of the piano. he eventually told silbermann that his pianos were adequate. bach wrote the transcription for harpsichord. and yes, it is a transcription of a lost violin concerto. all three movements were taken from various cantatas, so it was not an original work for a keyboard concerto.
evrth packaged is twice the price
100 hat arxitekt, ov chkar mej@.?
Yes..wonderful. He probably knew he wouldn't win playing Bach but he was true to his first musical love, reference his 2017-18 Well-Tempered Clavier survey at the Proms. You've got to play one of the big Romantic warhorses to win..Alexeev won playing Prokofiev 3 [predictably] and even Uchida was pushed into 2nd place playing the Schumann. They have both gone on to celebrated careers on the concert platform while Alexeev's star faded.
Dmitri Alexeev is one of the world's greatest pianists (of a legendary status) and has enjoyed a stellar career spanning decades at the very highest international level. In addition to performing in the most prestigious concert halls of the world and with the greatest conductors and orchestras, D. Alexeev has recorded a wealth of music; his interpretations are arguably the greatest ever. Your comment is highly disrespectful and ignorant. All three pianists are legendary and the results were completely fair. You're probably pushing politics...
A dumali v slavax??? Da Pravilno slavami obyasnyayem...
Actually it is 100% of Shiff, but it is.... sooo Gouldy!
Schiff András nem hiába magyarban látta meg a napvilágot...
and the truth? lies in Aerospace Engineering...
Shame he can't play the harpsichord, Bach is so much better on the instrument it was composed for.
Le chef en veste blanche c'est ridicule.
Cravo é superior. Piano é inferior
Idiotic mechanical metronomic performance from the beginning to the end
😢 Clever and talented, but this is like a pianola being pumped too fast. I infinitely prefer Glenn Gould with Leonard Bernstein.
who cares what you infinitely prefer? What a pygmy.
Who are you?
a very private person@@user-zz5je1ry1o
Gould is neurotic and slow.
I infinitely prefer Schiff.
Schiff was just so young and energized. I dont think he would play like this today.
needs a bit faster
