Sokolov makes me feel great again about life.

[@excelsior999]

Sokolov and Bach, I'd say.

[@marygrace3088]

Bravo bravissimo

[@TechnoRaabe]

He plays it so nicely, it's almost like he has never played anything else but Bach.

Григорий Соколов-драгоценнейшая жемчужина в диадеме русского исполнительского искусства♥️♥️♥️🥀🌷🌸🌺🌹💐

[@markdenemark7298]

Да. Ничего более Божественного, чем это исполнение, не существует...

[@sdnikko8960]

I just love the precision and contouring Soklov gives to ornamentation.

[@excelsior999]

"Contouring." I like that.

[@binaku50]

Marvelous interpretation, its like magic sometimes!

[@Muzyk005]

Gorgeous interpretation of Ouverture

[@democolor42]

coming back all the time, can not live without hearing this!!!!

[@DanielStipe]

I love this playing. The rise and fall of the melodic lines always feels just right. I don't know he keeps the gigue so together at that tempo! (Although, if you want a really fast gigue, listen to Gould--his is really too fast, while this one, again, feels just right.) Thanks for posting.

[@excelsior999]

IMO,, when GG first came on the scene he dazzled (some) listeners because he played the GV faster than anyone else had ever done. People like that.. They will pay money to watch horses, greyhound dogs or eccentric pianists do what they do with lightning speed.

[@Altagraciadeorituco]

Great Sokolov. Great!

[@c.g.marseille4510]

only Sokolov can bring this in such a nice form

[@moreira7daniel]

Ouverture simply perfect.

[@MA-uc3ep]

Daniel Moreira

[@helenknown5611]

Master of master.

[@ugo957]

Браво! Это играет гений пианистического мастерства. Супер ! ❤🎉😮😊

[@titusbeertsen]

Great depth of playing, and the gigue: wow...

[@moreira7daniel]

titusbeertsen The Gigue: impossibly perfect.

[@reventlov3969]

That calm my tinnitus, thx.

[@yogi3463]

beautiful! love Sokolov

[@jogobonito1234]

this is just marvellous

[@nicolasvanpoucke.pianist]

If this guy would play concerts 365 days a year we would all be without gigs.

[@antonellamajorano5348]

Bellissima esecuzione. Bravo 👏👏👏

[@TechnoRaabe]

5:58 - 6:20 Very neat!

[@MrPalika123]

Great upload, thank you!

[@MootPoot]

this gives me so much life

Introduction: 0:00 Allemande: 6:26

[@thepianocornertpc]

Benjamin Grosvernor also gives a very inspired performance of this Partita.

[@flemmingranch8777]

Let, lys og venlig hjertevarm musik, der er lys forude. En lys fremtid venter forude......

[@Renee2004lr]

To The Nimble Turtle: ......." and continues to the end of the work." Don't know if you are a big fan of lots of counterpoint or canons (like I am) or just Bach in D major, but I can almost feel that keyboard 'cadenza' from the 5th Brandenburg in this Partita.

[@Musicman180]

That's a fast gigue!

[@TechnoRaabe]

Then listen to the gigue of the first partita

[@wcsxwcsx]

A strange sounding piano, but it works.

[@c.g.marseille4510]

de Allemande is heel romantisch

[@user-rl2xr6pw7g]

❤

[@user-bq6kq7nl3u]

👍👍👍

[@alexreik424]

why sokolov when credit is given to Yuan Sheng Album Bach: Complete Partitas Licensed to KZbin by Kontor New Media Music (on behalf of Piano Classics); Public Domain Compositions, and 1 Music Rights Societies

[@lpa56]

An unfortunate error it seems. This is Sokolov, definitely not Yuan Sheng (also available on KZbin).

[@moreira7daniel]

Wonderful. However, though the Allemande sounds the way an Allemande should, it doesn't feel like the appropriate tempo to me... A bit slower, perhaps...

[@sergiocattapan1192]

Giga come palestra di esibizionismo, è ancora musica??

[@yogi3463]

Does anyone know the painter of that picture?

[@pilarsantiagonosti849]

Me gusta más la versión de vedernikov

[@ohsnapdude1601]

Is this from a cd?

[@reaganwiles_art]

is this Sokolov or Yuan Sheng?

[@TechnoRaabe]

Sokolov

[@steveg5453]

I’m confused: who’s playing this? It says Sokolov in the title but Yuan Sheng in the credits.

[@TechnoRaabe]

its sokolov if you listen to all the partitas by Yuan Sheng, Partita 4 sounds very different.

[@danilorongo3644]

Bellissima. Wonderful but gigue too fast: gigue is a dance.

[@RalphHancock]

There's a lot of wonderful playing here. But the Gigue is definitely too fast. It loses detail, for example the enjoyable syncopations soon after the start of the second half. In the performance as a whole there seems to be some influence from Tatyana Nikolaeva's splendid interpretation of this Partita -- and no wonder, Sokolov must have heard her often -- but she took the Gigue at a more rational, though still fast, speed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnO1iqKAj5eha6M Her performance of the whole Partita is at kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2rMpnyshKqYfq8 and all her Partitas are on KZbin, to our great benefit.

[@marionieto1]

dont agree :)

曲の途中でコマーシャル入るのは興ざめですね💦
