Tatiana Nikolayeva plays Bach - live recital 1984

[@elmiramuradova561]

Человек оркестр. Просто невероятное исполнение. Гениальная Татьяна!

[@tagaudi]

listening to her playing, so many times I get the feeling there is no person there. Only the music, the spirit of music, the intention of the composer. This must be a noble, higher mind playing that piano.

[@alexreik424]

one of the great comments ever on youtube...congratulations

[@andraszempleni1503]

Thank you for your great comment! (I couldn't agree with you more. She was an extraordinary master.)

[@JoshuaSobel]

I feel much the same about Schiff's later recordings. It really takes a special kind of musician to achieve that level of transcendence.

[@elmiramuradova561]

Thank you ,nice comment...

[@jorgeurzuaurzua4011]

The old lady with the children and myself being shown the toccata and fugue in D minor under a new light. A nice association, although I ceased to be a small child seventy years ago. Tatiana was a master musician and a lovely human being. Besides being one of the greatest piano players in history.

[@ayanalowe6886]

Wow, how lucky you were to have met and heard Tatiana. I am glad to hear she was a nice person. No one plays Bach like Tatiana. She makes each note sound luscious. She tells stories.

[@jorgeurzuaurzua4011]

@@ayanalowe6886 Dear Ayana, I never met Tatiana Nikolayeva in person. I have never been in Russia. In fact, the first time I heard of her she was already dead. This did not prevent me from declaring my love for her, her music and her love for Russian children. I love her playing Bach and playing Shostakovich. And she was known to be a lovely, warm human being, besides being a world class piano player. Thanks for your comment.

[@ayanalowe6886]

@@jorgeurzuaurzua4011 Hi Jorge, Thanks for your quick response. So you are a lover of Tatiana's music like I am. I can listen to her all night. She played with so much truth and power and warmth. I am new to Tatiana's music, too. I play the piano and I sing. Do you play an instrument? I'll have to listen to Tatiana's Shostakovich.

[@jorgeurzuaurzua4011]

@@ayanalowe6886 Dearest Anaya: I did have an early and short singing career. When I was seven (1948) I sang in the radio Al Jolson's song Swanee. More or less at the same time I saw the movie FANTASIA and fell in love with Beethoven's sixth symphony. I played the guitar and sang, not great but not awful either. My main interest has been classical (mostly Bach). I am now retired and quarantined and write short comments in youtube to fill my empty hours. I googled you - did not know the origin of your first name Anaya - and to my great surprise and delight I saw in the 55 Bar this fantastic descendant of Aretha and Ella, you singing soul, jazz and gospel!!!!! What a treat! Now I will have to fall in love with you! As to Shostakovich and Tatiana, you may find in youtube the 24 preludes and fugues by Shostakovich, played by Tatiana, there are also CD's available.

[@markdrinkwater1508]

@@jorgeurzuaurzua4011 I saw Aretha twice, nobody emotes through song like she did, there were moments when she sang from the soul of humanity itself.

Quel bonheur de voir Tatiana Nicolayeva jouant Bach, entourée d'enfants, de petites filles fleuries et de plus gds !... Bach c'est pour les enfants immédiatement et pour les adultes en inquiètude, dans la mélancolie du Golgotha, je me dis....

Татьяна Великая.

[@marcaurele3115]

Le Bach de Tatiana Tatiana nicolaieva est tout d'humanité , loin de la sévérité, des spéculations intellectuelles , des oukases des gardiens du temple ! Ce Bach vient du coeur et , bien que très maîtrisé , est de l'ordre du vagabondage , de la rêverie , loin des grandes routes , sur les chemins herbeux de la liberté. Ce talent unique reste une référence pour ceux qui regarde Bach comme un compagnon du quotidien ..

[@danielao9585]

Bravissima, la bravura della signora Nicolajevna la trovo nella sua semplicità ed accuratezza di interpretazione, senza applausi. Foto commovente...

[@grahamcombs4752]

In the 1960s in my working class suburb of Detroit, we were exposed to the Leonard Bernstein Young People's Concerts. And they were broadcast on CBS, one of three nation-wide broadcasters in the U.S. I suspect that is not the case today, more's the pity. If music is ugly, it is played. You hear at the mall, in traffic, on high school and college campuses. But keep the faith; the beauty and genius of classical music is there if you want it. Accept no substitutes...

[@розамимоза-у9ш]

Спасибо, это прекрасно. О таких мастерах нужно рассказывать по ТВ.

[@torealmgren3838]

I have been the lucky one to be her producer in the middle of 80th. She gave me the music of her arrangement of Bach.

[@ayanalowe6886]

Ah, how lucky you were to have had the chance to hear her live. I bet you have a few good stories about Tatiana. To have produced her must have been a big job. What did you do with her arrangements? I am gaga over her music!!!

[@danielaamandola3576]

Lei grandissima. Bach è di una modernità eccezionale.

Tatiana Nikolaeva a defendu l' art européenne et russe toute sa vie. C' est une femme qui a transmis tellement de bonheur aux gens qui pouvaient oublier leur quotidien et detresse pour un moment; cette femme merite d' etre vu comme tresor de l' humanité.

[@LAPEYREdidier]

Oui, un trésor de l'âme humaine, tout comme mère Thérésa

How to play Bach as it should be. Total knowledge, complete understanding, zero pride. She is like a mathematics expert, a heart surgeon. Impassioned. Precise. Relentless. Doing what's right.

[@metteholm4833]

Bach - mathematics? Bach himself said: "My music is for the heart".

What a joy to hear this artist perform so beautifully. I am curious. I wondered if I saw her in New York city on the boardwalk with her husband who captivated my attention to his sweetest violin music that seem to emanate from his soul. This would have been in the latter part of 1992.

Bach convida a mirar dins d'un mateix, si un es dolent potser encara ho serà més. Voldria pensar que pocs malintencionats escoltin Bach i si hom ho fà després d`escoltar aixó, potser que s´ho faci mirar. Només hi veig bellesa, art i amor; vaja, que la Nikolaeva és un gran exponent. Gràcies per a deixar-nos escoltar meravelles com aquesta, aixó no es veu cada dia.

[@seabird052]

Fantastic rendition of Bach, particularly the partita no 2. She plays nearly without legato and sustain pedal, like Gould. In my opinion, Nikolayeva is far better playing Bach than Richter or Sokolov.

[@СергейТропинин-э7э]

In my opinion, Nikolayeva is far better playing Bach than Richter or Sokolov. maybe ... just not only - Richter - The Well Tempered Clavier

[@dr.peterjosephzisa7947]

Great pianist and interpreters of Bach, but I agree she tops them all, including Gould!

[@schrysafis]

I always wished Richter recorded at least a part of Art of Fugue. It would be an interesting approach thinking that his counterpoint clarity is good.
