J.S. BACH Concerto Italien BWV 971 / Glenn Gould

[@patriciap6519]

Glenn, yesterday, today and tomorrow.

[@biopolis7]

These notes are the same for all pianists; but under Gould's fingers they are added the magic of his touch and produce a sound nobody can reach.

[@antonwills-eve124]

my favourite keyboard music by Bach and played by the greatest exponent of the art of playing his piano music. What else can I say except that I have downloaded this and will probably listen to it at least once a week.

[@ChristopheStrobbe]

"And you've been listening to Bach's Concerto Italien, interpreted by Glenn Gould, piano and vocals." (That's a joke I heard on BBC Radio in the 1990s.)

[@alexandervonkarnstein]

Genius at work.

[@mariovalencia7167]

Increíble la finura, las dinámicas tan bonitas y el gusto por el detalle y la transparencia de Gould. Hace sencillo lo complicado, escucharle no cansa, es un bálsamo su Bach. Un clásico.

[@BakusZD]

I’m leaning this concerto right now and have been listening to many pianists performing this piece. And by far Gould’s interpretation is the most closest to me. I might play the left hand slightly with a lighter touch though. Everything else is so perfect 👌

[@stutti42]

It's an amazingly beautiful performance. A convincing interpretation in every way. No notes are neglected, and there is no mention of undernutrition. Guld has a great command of the overall structure of the music and doesn't waste time telling you what it is. Thanks, David!

[@mareksirotiar9550]

If you have good headphones, you can hear someone humming melody in the background troughout. Is that Glenn gould singing while playing? sounds like that person understands this piece very well.

[@paulperi5947]

C'est Glenn GOULD lui-même.

[@bigtombowski]

It's one of Gould's famous quirks.

[@sisfantasto7004]

Gould sang with Bach. I do that too. It's very refreshing.

[@pierrechiasson6192]

His singing along his playing is legendary and has caused many headaches for the recording sound engineers!

[@andrewgraham1418]

Yes, and you can also hear him crooning along with some sections of the Goldberg Variations. Just irrepressible I guess, and touching.

[@debviolot3123]

The combined accomplishment of both composer and performer here is simply unworldly. It is beyond art. The word “genius” has been so corrupted and downgraded in modern parlance that it’s application here seems ironically inappropriate and trite.

[@romanhugodiazg.1281]

La interpretación del segundo movimiento es profundamente espiritual. Lo tendré que poner como obra aparte. Lastima que la calidad de grabación es un poco mala. Debería ser rescatada por algún especialista.

[@macarenagutierrez5310]

Dos genios unidos❤️❤️

[@pigiz64]

Sotto quasi ad ogni video di Glenn Gould si possono leggere sempre i medesimi commenti: dall'indignazione profonda, alla lode sperticata. Posso anche capire che per alcuni non è così che si interpreta Bach (gli Accademici sono sempre esistiti e sempre esisteranno...). Ma Gould è così: o si odia, o si ama; o si vorrebbe annullarlo (sulla base di una presunta maggior conoscenza musicale e competenza interpretativa della sua), o si esalta rimanendone ogni volta stupiti e affascinati. Una cosa è certa, in ogni caso non si resta indifferenti e ciò fa profondamente bene alla musica e alla musica da lui interpretata.

[@maddalenasodo9566]

[@jrb748]

I don't personally love his take on the second movement, but the sensitivity on both the first and third are marvelous. The delicacy and clarity of the different parts are stupendous.

[@robinthomsoncomposer]

Nobody plays Bach quite like GG does. You just hear everything such clarity

[@PointyTailofSatan]

BTW: Gould really disliked the Italian Concerto, and rarely played it. He called it "Bach for people that hate Bach". This is true to some extent, as it's probably the most "style galant" piece Bach composed, excluding transcribed works from people like Vivaldi. Still, it's a fantastic piece, so Gould could just dislike it more on principle than on quality. lol

[@voidisyinyangvoidisyinyang885]

only Gould properly plays the 2nd movement slower than most people. I memorized this piece and really it's only the 2nd movement that I treasure. thanks

[@engobeats]

😂😂😂 i feel him

[@AlecNicholson]

i think one always has to take what he says with a pinch of salt. certainly you can tell how much he loves playing the quieter introspective moments in Bach's work. but like the 26th Goldberg variation or the Bb major prelude from WTC1, i think he must have enjoyed ripping into the lively stuff, and the robustness and vigour of the Presto certainly doesn't sound to me like someone who isn't enjoying the playing. Surely not everything has to be the 6-voice Ricercar of the Musical Offering to be worthy of his attention haha.

[@shigaro4407]

[@melliotbarrett]

Funny how is tempo are so much more reasonable for Bach as compare to what he does either Mozart.

[@lisztfestivalschillingsfur2473]

Listen to Perahia, Schiff, Michelangeli etc. Gould can never compare, plays like a machine, especially 2.mvmt.

[@charles-valentinalkan5681]

Schiff? Seriously? The pianist with a shallow touch and so little understanding? By mentioning him you dug your own grave. Horrible taste.

[@EliSpotts]

I agree, all of his interpretations either have too much rubato or are very staccato. I question why his partitas are so revered, I take Gould and even Zimmerman over him. I personally have been listening to Zimmerman's Bach partita number one and prefer it over Schiff. @@charles-valentinalkan5681

[@robinthomsoncomposer]

It is baroque music it is supposed to be somewhat metronomic not destroyed by romantic orientated pianists

[@vydonjabugerrov]

Honestly one of the most idiotic responses I've ever heard in my life. If you don't understand Gould and the way he played this piece, I genuinely feel sorry for you.

[@AtheneNoctua7]

Gould wurde gut vermarktet. Ich habe nie etwas mit seinen Interpretationen anfangen können. Ich spiele lieber selbst, und zwar nicht auf dem großen Podium, sondern "zur Ergötzung des Gemüts".

[@enriquei.moreno6268]

Truly uninspiring. Allegro: mostly boring, aggressive banging, lacking any subtlety--piano sounds like a rickety old box. Andante: he plays a very slow 6/8, instead of 3/4. We need 3 beats, Mr. Gould! Otherwise dementially slow. When I woke up, the Presto: played faster than what the counterpoint can support. The result is unbearable. Most other recordings of GG are genius. This one is not good.

[@einherijaar]

Do it better

[@vydonjabugerrov]

Agreed. This is probably one of Gould's most brilliant interpretations. Please anyone, anyone.. please play it better.

[@virtuosacoloratura9740]

Non si può suonare Bach pestando così, non si dovrebbe suonare nulla con questa foga. La trova una pessima prova di sensibilità musicale.

[@randomyoutubeuser4033]

Every musician have their own style of interpretation…. You don’t have to be on their side, but to me you shouldn’t be criticizing their style. Glenn Gould was controversial for a reason, but he was also one of the most celebrated pianist at the time for a reason.

[@eltiogottlieb.4911]

¿Golpeando? En el clavecín mismo (sé perfectamente que no se pueden hacer dinámicas en él) hay partes de este concierto que suenan poderosísimas en el teclado con registro forte. No creo que el sonido perlado pianístico característico del clasicismo al romanticismo tenga que ver con Bach, desde el momento en que ni eran para piano sus obras. Creo que ese ímpetu que le da le va bien y de alguna forma no sólo se adecua al ímpetu que se siente en el clave, sino que hasta queda por debajo del mismo.

[@silviapavani-devisser1150]

finalmente qualcuno che la pensa come me.... lo trovo irritantissimo con la sua "unique" interpretazione. Il suo ego sembra frapporsi tra la musica e l'ascoltatore
