Molte grazie per wuesto confronto. I miei preferiti? RICHTER E GAVRILOV ( suo alunno 😂). Perché ? In essi c'è semplicità , onestà e una splendida tensione ❤

Robert It seems that too metrical an approach in the Allemande, which some pianists employ here, shuts the door on the deeply expressive possibilities in the music. If that means I prefer "romanticizing" Bach, so be it. On the basis of a lot of his music, I would actually suggest he WAS a romantic.
Koroliov is the only pianist of the 10 who ornaments his repeats (with the exception of Feltsman, whose ornaments are minimal). In so doing he brings the performance back to Baroque practice. (One could question if his embellishments achieve genius.)
@@johncerella2127 If his tempi were not so wobly I might reconsider. As for ornaments - if you want to go back to Baroque practice play on a clavichord or harpsichord. Ornaments were necessary to accent notes or to achieve certain appoggiaturas on instruments which did not respond to degrees of touch - like the harpsichord. Filling a piano performance of bach with ornaments is as pointless as wearing clothes of Bach's time to play the Golbergs!
Murray Periaha is to my taste better on this Allemande than any of these although yes Richter's tempo and approach is good. Andras Schiff has a "zen" like approach to Bach playing that I love. Schiff is informed by approaches to articulation gleaned from listening to Bach on harpsichord and clavichord but without the "pecky" caricature of Glenn Gould. Across his Bach playing Schiff gets tempi right and has for me an overall balance of line, dynamics and articulation that few can match. Some early interpretatiions in this lineup are awash with pedal and although not to my taste, I like the Tatiana's exploration of implied inner melodic lines and her sweeping approach to dynamics. Others I find to be way too slow - kind of what I might do when playing the piece through "with mindfulness" while learning it - I wouldn't play this to anyone else at this kind of tempo and consider it a performance.
OMGoodness, you make a comparison of Bach being played on the piano and you don't include G Gould? Probably on purpose rather than forgetfulness, too (who can forget GG?).
You're right, but on the positive side, I already own the Gould recording and it sounds like you do, too. I'm happy to hear a lot of pianists here I otherwise would not hear.
O_o....This is a 10 pianists in comparison.... And son many harpsichordists (as far I prefer harpsichord in this repertoire) are more valuable than the two mentioned.
Nikolaeva's the best. The slower the better. As a rule it's so concerning Bach.
This is a great lesson! There is no claim about it being the ten best Bach players on piano.
No one plays this better then murray periaha
Yesss

Absolutely correct!
Koroliov is a genius
Koroliov - unstable tempo and mannered.
@@keybawd4023 He brings something new to this piece out of Baroque.
@@74droi The "something new" is what? Unstable tempo and manerism?

Gould reste un mythe....mais cette version est , comme souvent .... TROP personnelle
Gould haters are many. Anyway, apart from Richter he is incomparable....
Feltsman
João Carlos Martins is better, listen him in this Allemande.
Why No.4 chosen out of six? Any special reasons?
Because it’s amazing
It is incredibly gorgeous, even among all of bach’s beautiful works. And is much better when played slowly! I agree with the ranking someone provided.
Ever heard of Glenn Gould?
Missing - Jean Rondeau and Robert Hill

I guess than the difference would be too obvious. This is no repertoire at all for a piano.
Glenn Gould rocks!!!
1.Николаева
2.Ингрид Хеблер
The best is by Gould. But nice tries...😅
