She always takes me to the deeper parts of music, especially in Bach...

[@philipmulville8218]

A stunning performance. Full of emotion. Clean. Beautiful.

[@gfweis]

Nikolayeva and Tureck are my favorites on piano. Desert Island stuff.

[@paulparoma]

Nikolayeva is like the finest caviar. Tureck is like canned tuna from a discount store.

[@dvdgrog]

I don't think it's possible, at this level of playing, to say that something is 'better.' Maybe you prefer another version for some reason; it's subjective. I love Perahia's Bach, perhaps more than Nikolayeva's, but I wouldn't call it better.

[@kentayagyuu]

Thank you ! I could not purchase this excellent album. I believe Tatiana really enjoys playing BACH.

[@ethansaltmere]

Why don't we get pianists like her these days! Really wonderful Bach, articulated, insightful playing.

[@stonefireice6058]

Try to listen Grigory Sokolov, especially Golberg Variations, that Glen Gould was famous for. The precision of the play and control of sound make him the best Bach players these days. Gould was very impressed!

[@qiuyandai1888]

@@stonefireice6058 Yes love Grigory and Glen Gould. Also Piotr Anderszewski and Yuan Sheng.

[@marksmith3947]

​@@stonefireice6058generally I quite dislike Sokolov in Baroque repertoire, but oddly I haven't heard much of his Bach

[@taurih630]

I completely agree with you, enormous number of experts and common people.who share this opinion.

[@cortootify]

Very cheerful performance..really wonderful.Unique touch, very interesting interpretation..Thanks for uploading..

[@garyrogers4928]

The courante (and others) is always interesting on piano to see what performers do dynamically. This interpretation is quite animated and tells a complex story.

[@Jaimejimmyjim]

How much I love this Bach!! and what a wonderful interpretation

[@MarcusHK1]

Yes you are probably right. This is especially true of music of the complexity of Bach's. For instance in the WTC, there are several versions which I find outstanding: Richter, Hewitt and Gulda, but I would find it hard to chose the best. Each sheds a different light on the work.

[@umegghju]

Metà dei commenti parla di quale sia l'interpretazione migliore di tutte. Che stupidaggine, ci sono ottime interpretazioni e lo scopo non è quello di trovare quella migliore

[@neosannyasin8022]

Def one of the most underrated and under-appreciated pianists of the 20th century. Outside of Russia, that is, of course.

[@Elisa-xw6ek]

Je découvre cette pianiste . Très belle interprétation.

[@abirdthatflew]

Sublime.

[@stevenmark5904]

Interesting so much staccato, well before Gould made it fairly commonplace. A nice way to set off the voices, but to do it in the allemande and courante? And after the sarabande, back to it in the trio and for much of the gigue. A different touch would be called for, I would think.

[@mishpatim123]

I heard everything and it's soooooo much bach and soooooo Tatiana. I love the mix, it's great !!! toda !!!

[@goognamgoognw6637]

I own Tatianna Nikolayeva WTC I & II CDs set for 12 years. She has been my Bach (virtual) teacher and (real) inspiration from the beginning.

[@richardboaz2074]

me too. she was the first recording i heard of book II and i was immediately and forever mesmerized by her. that was 20 years ago, and no one has replaced her.

[@MarcusHK1]

I don't have a copy of the CD. I heard it on YT, but it was later removed due to copyright issues. There's another outstanding version of the partitas I heard recently by Angela Hewitt (on a CD I borrowed).

[@alexanderalenitsyn9053]

There is much in common between of playing by Glenn Gould and Tatiana Nikolaeva. But there is also a significant difference: 1) Gould first recorded Bach's Partitas in the middle of the fifties while Nikolaeva made her records in 1980, so she had already heard Glenn Gould's interpretation; 2) Nikolaeva sends to us very much open feeling and expression while Gould keeps mostly his own emotions inside. Nikolaeva stands on the Earth, Gould lives on the Heaven. I prefer Glenn.

[@cambiohome]

Tatiana trabaja desde el legato , Gould desde el portato-stacatto son dos conceptos muy diferentes , Gould es más rítmico y Tatiana más lírica. No se pueden comparar las dos interpretaciones son las mejores de la historia de la música.

[@JDCullum]

Lucid and pure Bach.

[@micaelabonetti949]

Sublime 🙏

[@elmiramuradova561]

Это лучшее исполнение Баха❤

[@taurih630]

Long time ago she proved she's a right person to play JSB.

[@taurih630]

I don't agree, but I appreciate your opinion.

[@АлександрЯрков-ш2з]

Духозахватывающе

[@hdholl9696]

The end of the prelude is pathetic. The allemande too fast: it is an elegant dance, not a rush to catch your train.

[@neosannyasin8022]

Have worked on this partita for many years. It is so difficult.

[@ЕленаА-л3ъ]

очень гармонично и глубоко. могу бесконечно слушать...

[@crvarela430]

Yo pienso lo mismo. Es muy bello. Yo no conocía a esta concertista. Es exquisita.

[@ondionda]

Maravilhoso

[@dpk84]

Superb!

[@ccastillop]

Excelente!!!!

[@saltburner2]

I presume this is the 1980 performance issued in the UK on CD by OLYMPIA? Sadly, only the first three Partitas were issued in the UK.

[@やましたまこた]

素晴らしい音楽ありがとうございます

[@MarcusHK1]

It's very good, but I think Ramin Bahrami's version is better.

[@francoispallud1215]

du grand art

[@JuanMarcello]

very good! Landowska is too much better, but not human. Nobody in the history of world has like Landowska. Nicolayeva is superb, but human, like us. believe in me.

[@goognamgoognw6637]

Then you have not heard Tatianna play the WTC. It's like a visit to heaven without using the one way only pass that we all have.

[@marcruel5096]

Quelle musique! Quel grand art!

[@gojewla]

Very interesting performance.

[@goognamgoognw6637]

your cat is very cute.

[@neosannyasin8022]

My favorite Bach pianists: Gould, Richter, Tureck, Schiff, Nikolayeva.

[@paulparoma]

Gould was an amateur and a freak, and Tureck was just a joke. Schiff is not in the same league as Richter and Nikolayeva. No one is except Sokolov, perhaps.

[@flachi32]

Is this on any album? Is it available to purchase?

[@j.marin.8150]

Great, but please look at the Rosita Renard version. in my opinion the best of all...

[@jeffingber1173]

I have that performance on CD. I agree that it is a great performance.

Thank You!....

[@brunodonderi9869]

Interesting performance. Anyway the allemande is somewhat too fast in my opinion.

[@willstone7451]

you dont get pianists like this today... because the human sensibility has been abused by an evolutionary deformation caused by a rash of holocausts and world wars in the last twenty seconds of the earth's life...most musicians are not artists, nor are those calling themselves poets, occasionally there is an exception such as Glenn Gould or Nick Drake...in the same way you cannot have a painter like memling or van eyck anymore but you can have damien hirst.all the best for the future!

The allemande is taken much too quickly. It’s a stately, processional dance, it should flow.
