I don't particularly like Schiff's early recordings but as an old man, he has become one of the greatest pianists of all time.

대가의 연주는 이렇듯 편안하고 안온하네요. 음악에 실린 영혼의 아름다움, 교감…사뭇 대작곡가인 바흐의 음악과 연주의 대가를 통한 울림이 평안을 줍니다. 연주 너무 훌륭합니다. ^^

Exquisite interpretation by a master musician. Andras Schiff is one of the few keyboard interpreters of Bach who plays the counterpoint and pays attention to phrasing to bring out the genius of Johan Sebastian. So many performers produce metranomic, mechanical interpretations that fail to express Bach's genius and end up merely playing the notes. Just as great actors playing Shakespeare make sense of his carefully crafted words, Andras Schiff makes Bach make sense. And what sense !

French Suite No. 5? This video will remain one of my treasures while it stays on KZbin. Thank you so, so much. András Schiff developed long ago, as he says, a “third ear.” I’ve not come across any other pianist who listens to himself so well. Again, thank you!

[@SandWolf_]

Agreed. I'm often amazed at the range of dynamics, the characters and the colours he invests in any single piece. Not to mention, hooked on his signature clarity! This is someone who listens to himself for every pitch he is making and calculates (for lack of a better word) how musical his playing can be and how it comes across to the audience acoustically.

His third ear is in his soul!

[@user-dy3wh4lp5b]

I'd say he even has a fourth and fifth ear. I think that the acoustics of the room are not easy at all. And even less easy to adapt the Suite to each place. He not only adapts the work in terms of resonance but also in many other respects. He use ornamentations, tempos and articulations depending on each room. At least I have that impression. I play a lot of Bach works and I would only be able, for example, to modify the tempo and pedal issues but I would not have such a wide range of possibilities regarding ornamentation or articulation. Sometimes I think that I agree so much with Schiff's criteria that I tend to resemble my vision and it is impossible for me not to copy many things; so I hope they are just fun copies but not bad copies. From Spain, in my room with coronavirus but listening to Schiff and reading C. P. E Bach.

Very well said. And get well soon!

Einer der absolut besten Künstler am Klavier für ein paar Zombies mit Masken und Distanz, was für eine Verschwendung. Perlen vor die Säue.
