Friedrich Gulda: J. S. Bach - "Air" from Suite No. 3 in D major for Orchestra No. 3, BWV 1068

[@reinhardheiderich1879]

Genial. Gulda spielt Bach. Es lässt sich mit Worten nicht mehr beschreiben! Außerirdische

[@yutsuhaya]

The most beautiful Air on the G string I have ever heard…

[@winstonwolfe2537]

I thought I heard them all. Those dozens of beautiful interpretations of Bach’s famous “Air”. And then I stumble over this amazingly precious piece of Gulda! What a complement!

[@TroelsNybo1st]

If you are fortunate enough to be in resonance with Gulda, he can bring you somewhere that I have not experienced with any other musician.

[@ghoshneh]

How many times I've listened to this performance?! God knows! And the phrase coming in my head about Gulda (without even knowing him or having seen him in person) is this: "What a beautiful man!" . The irony here is he's joking a bit with the other pianists while playing, and through the humour of his joke, STILL, comes out such a beautiful, natural, balanced performance for which he needs very little help from his body language or facial expression while playing. This is the most beautiful performance of the Air I've heard to this date on the piano. R.I.P Gulda.

Ein Stück von J.S. Bach für die Ewigkeit. Und dann Gulda, völlig abgeklärt und ruhig spielt er ES. Grosse Kunst. R.I.P

Another Planet. Thanks Gulda.

Thanks for saying what i ran out of words for

And it exists people who don't like music...This music is perfection on earth as majestic as the sound of the ocean.

[@TroelsNybo1st]

We all have our limitations. I am fortunate enough to have a decent level of musicality. Nothing special, but decent.

[@peterhorten]

Er hat das Stück verstanden. Langsam, aber mit Zusammenhalt. Er war einer der Besten.

[@b.murenthaler]

"langsam" ist auch wichtig , damit es seine "wirkung" entfalten kann ... viele jüngere heutzutage verstehen das halt nicht mehr oder haben das gefühl dafür schlichtweg verloren ... wundern tät's mich nicht !

[@coomamusic]

Besser geht nicht. Hätte Bach ein Hammerklavier gehabt, hätte er es vermutlich genau so gespielt. In großer Ehrfurcht lieber Friedrich Gulda, unvergessen.

[@paularoberts320]

You honor Bach in your playing. Thank you❤

[@barbarafuglein3918]

Er ist ein wahrer Künstler! Mit Herz und Seele beherrscht Friedrich Gulda das Instrument!

[@CptHook-1149]

I have a CD of Gulda playing Concert no. 5 "Emperor" and I think it's the best execution of it I ever heard..., great pianist and man he was. R.I.P.

[@tjmanou6422]

OUTSTANDING performance.

Glad I found this interpretation. It's the best one. ❤

[@irenenaselli2429]

Gulda !! tan simple, tan complejo, siempre asombroso.

[@richardbeer2549]

einfach wundervoll

[@motaku7525]

As I say somewhere else here, this is my favorite interpretation on KZbin besides Stokowski orchestration. And I must actually rank this higher because he is alone at the piano, making it sound quite improvisational, which is very much in tune with baroque style, and the feeling, the ornamentations, almost as if here were playing a stringed instrument sometimes; the bringing out of unexpected inner voices, some of which might be improvised....... Just beautiful. I don't care whether it's faithful to the baroque style or not. Many have their own interpretations, including Siloti and Busoni of Bach.

[@losberju]

Cómo se hace suya la pieza... Íntima pero sobria, sin caer en ningún tipo de apasionamiento gratuito. Maravilla.

[@אליעזרקנטור]

He was one of the most underrated pianists of his generation .......an absolute master.........and a superb musician!

[@TroelsNybo1st]

I venture to disagree. I first came across him 50ish years ago and he was highly rated at the time. It may be a question about the context in which you know him. He may have been misunderstood and disliked by people who couldn't handle his style, but he was always very highly regarded by very many music lovers.

[@liraidaratchinskaia8926]

Beautiful!

J S Bach sounds so lovely on the piano. I'm currently learning the Prelude in B flat minor, BWV 867, and would also love to learn this Air.

[@masterofgenres8130]

same here, only right now

[@rebeccatrimikliniotou618]

Perfect 🌹

[@dlozada1]

Best arrangement of the Air. Better than Martucci’s (imperial) and Siloti’s (blah), better because it is peaceful, measured, without an excess of ornaments. Magical. Does anyone know if there is a transcription of it anywhere to be purchased or downloaded ? Many thanks !!!

[@keva.3856]

PM me

[@stringsandpipes7548]

Where can the transcription be found?

[@CINEMATOGRAPHERGR]

that its true

[@organboi]

Siloti "blah?" It's exactly what Bach wrote in the Suite. Nothing much different at all.

[@johapet]

Probably this is Friedrich Gulda's own transcription! :D

It is clearly his own trascription !

This is most likely an improvisation. The closest you'll get is Alexander Siloti's transcription.

[@motaku7525]

Relax. It's obviously a casual and informal environment where he's a guest on a show or something. And it actually kind of goes with the very improvisational style he shows. Absolutely beautiful, the best interpretation I've heard on KZbin besides Stokowski's orchestration.
