The episode that starts at 2:02 is exceptionally beautiful, and the piano really helps to bring out the notes colliding into one another, and the close writing with the parts all in the same range wandering around each other--the percussive quality of the piano is great for this passage in a way the organ is not.

BWV has always been my favorite Bach organ-piece. Good to know that it might also has been Bach's favorite :) Well played!

this is so perfect

This is perfectly suited to the piano but the original version for organ has the upper hand as far as sheer sorority goes. (Sorry, but I'm an organist !)

1:13 5:02

How can I find this piano version score?

Perla assoluta.

I was a former student of Tom's a long time ago. I read that he passed away in February of 2022, but the article didn't say what the cause was. That guy was an incredible pianist, teacher, person, etc. RIP. He will be missed.

Oh my word. Now that is how this piece should sound. I’ve been looking everywhere for a recording of the prelude that I actually like, other than the Netherlands Bach Society one. Turns out that the piano is the answer.

You know it’s good when the piano sounds like an organ… (If you’ve heard the organ version before)

Wonderful.

Just heard that Mr. Labé passed away on 1-18-2022. This is by far my favorite rendition of Claire de lune. We are all fortunate enough to be blessed with this music and talent. Rest in peace.

Can you still play it, friend?

I was still here Goat you vanished I told you that the rain and snow ❄️ pack was coming beautiful piano 🎵 god bless you and your family

多くの人の月光の演奏を聴きましたが、貴方の演奏が一番です。曲を聴いて、情景が心に広がる、素晴らしい音色です。

Bravo ma …..eccessivo virtuosismo a discapito della linea melodica pucciniana!!!!!!!!

Beautiful hands, cultivated pianism, impressive synchronization on chords, elevated technical skills. The interpretation of this subtle and complex music work proves to be a great challenge for any pianist... This great composition of Debussy is a remarkable example of how different perspectives every interpret renders...

🎹 Oops...despite his impressive virtuosity and the Lisztian paraphrasing... the Maestro frequently fails to bring out the MELOS (I. E. the melody line) which gets buried amid the busy accompaniment. 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

His name is what now 😭

R.I.P. Thomas Labé

It's good, but it's not magical. The sonority is too sharp for this piece, and the effect is not very convincing..

Great melody; the only problem is now I can’t see debussy without laughing

I found it. I finally found it! YES! I never felt so emotional finding a song before. Years of me searching and it finally payed off at the end.

BRAVISSIMO-

So beautiful, so subtle, so sublime

Красиво.

His wonderful performance is a great gift to Clair de Lune lovers

I have looked and listened to a number of Clair de lune performances on KZbin and I always come back to this one. One of my favorite performances of my favorite classical piece of music. So beautiful!

Where can part 1 (Prelude) be found?

This is christmas music.

lasagna - garfield

This is just fantastic - so faithful to the original!!!

This song is very beatiful :)

No performance is as interesting and intriguing and captivating as his inspirational performance

Inspired by his breathtaking performance with incomparable skill and exquisite technique , I remember the famous bright moon in Sagano in Kyoto , Japan .

On est dans le génie pur là...

A compositional and interpretative masterpiece ... my opinion is that no organ interpretation can match this admirable performance. I firmly believe in the expressive superiority of the piano (crescendo, accentuation, softness, elegance and immeasurable sensuality.) Thanks and the most vivid compliments to the performer Thoman Labe.

Ma cos'è?

A música é toda menor e termina com um final maior, parece que a música é toda triste e no final ela se resolve com alegria, bela genialidade

Haha danganronpa get it? Hahaha

It's so beautiful ! from Japan .

This familiar masterpiece he plays with splendid skill and wonderful allure is comfortable to the ears and the mind From Tokyo of Japan

This is hands down the best version of this peice I've ever heard. Bravo

This prelude can stay also without his fugue.

Orrendo!! mi scusi maestro, ovviamente riconosco le sue ottime qualità tecniche e anche una buona interpretazione se vogliamo, ma la scelta di snaturare la bellezza delle frasi melodiche Pucciniane che considero l'unico a emozionarmi più di quelle di Chopin,e Chopin lì era il n1, è veramente non condivisibile.spero che il mio commento non gli arrechi dispiacere, esprimo solo un mio pensiero da fun sfegatato dell'opera italiana. Mi sono appena iscritto al suo canale e le auguro tanta buona fortuna per la riuscita dei suoi progetti.Carlo

Debussy's aesthetics fascinates me , I just am intoxicated with his incomparable performance . Comfort and a feeling of peace are heated just to listen to his exquisite performance . His performance is soothing , calming , fascinating and moving From chaotic Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun of the Far East ♨️

Hey, this is from tiktok!!

absolument divin ,bravo l'artiste pour cette magnifique interprétation

1:31 that transition though
