Tiffany Poon plays Bach French Suite No. 5 in G Major, BWV 816

[@kriteon]

I'm learning this whole suite now for school. Her interpretation is exquisite. Her execution of the baroque trill is going to be my template

Thx

[@水戸修平-g8k]

Great performance Tiffany 😊 I think this work is different from Six Partitas. What is the difference? I think these are the pomp, and used harmony occasionally in this work. I love both of them. Thank you Tiffany 🎶😊

She has grown into a beautiful lady with never increasing and amazing beauty in her performances. I can only imagine how proud her teacher and parents must be. This ia clear result of having the CORRECT teacher. Beautifully played, the best Tiffany, and my congrats to your teacher excellent job! I love watching you play... you whole soul, body everything is all in harmony with your instrument producing PERFECTION. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. GOD BLESS CHILD !!

[@olivialee1056]

Tiffany, thank you for blessing the world with your wonderful music that is perfect to study to.

[@HidekazuOki]

This is one of my favorite Bach pieces, and you play it so gracefully! thanks for sharing!

[@georgeharliono]

I really love the way Tiffany Poon plays this.

[@LemonJanet]

I just love how you played! fantastic.

[@blackblurable]

I love this piece. Played beautifully

[@john-patrickdickson9663]

Miss Poon has a strong left hand, and, relative to the right hand plays everything with a fractionally louder left than right hand. These little dances benefit from this characteristic enormously. For me this clarity of the lower part makes this performance of the French dances the best I have ever heard. The sophistication and musicality of her music performances contrast with her childish scat performances in interviews and pop programs. Poles apart. I takes all sorts to make a world. We are lucky in our time; lovely comfortable music halls, KZbin, Steinways, Faziolis, wireless. The music of the masters.

[@RevantuZ]

Well said. The bass really brings out the harmonic progressions and provides an excellent baseline for the higher parts, just like in choral music.

[@mencken8]

John-Patrick Dickson I am attracted to her playing, possibly because of that left hand. Perhaps the reason Glenn Gould has always been a favorite of mine.

[@DangerRussDayZ6533]

Baroque music, especially Bach, was all about multiple voices singing clearly. His work is dense with counterpoint and so a clear left hand is extremely important.

[@ianbell4816]

I've just been listening to this on Idagio (from 2019). Absolutely stunning. Your Courante has a wonderful interplay of lyricism, precision and power. The Sarabande is more bittersweet than melancholy and all the better for it. Bravo!!!!

[@richard0807]

So clean. Nowt wrong with that! Tiffany displays absolute technical mastery in this performance. Bravissimo! Really enjoyable.

[@lardyify]

10 minutes of pure delight! These suites are not performed enough at the highest level. Wonderful.

[@jihanjoo]

My favorite Gigue in all of the suites!

[@JA-nn8ys]

Love the Gigue. You really have a beautiful unique style and interpretation and have helped me considerably with my own feeble attempts to learn the piece. Thank you!

Bach è bello da ascoltare e tu lo suoni davvero bene. BRAVA

[@lorenzomedelpiano]

Beautiful .... you have a great feel for Bach.

I love your playing! I play Allemande, gavotte and gigue 🎹❤️😄

[@MusicistaCSH]

Absolutely amazing!

The only interpretation I thought was most beautifully delivered was yours and Andras Schiff's!

[@normsantos1274]

What about Murray Perahia?

[@eytonshalom]

listen to murray perahia

@TheTage Show and GG. every last smidgen of all of his Bach...

[@dibaldgyfm9933]

@@eytonshalom :: I listened, but the video on KZbin w. Perahia is probably not what you intend. Perahia has got some illness and shakes a bit, but plays beautifully. What I like at Tiffany's rendering is the Gigue's dynamics, beautiful curves, and it is simply wonderful, I have never heard it come so much alive. Very inspiring and AWEsome!

[@Goldberry-T]

Have you ever played an instrument like a piano? Moving one's head and arms like that are kind of just inherent. You feel the music moving through you and the song coming through your fingertips! Like all instruments, it's rather a personal connection with the music and the instrument. I don't think Tiffany's really trying to draw attention to herself... she made a remarkable performance and played quite flawlessly, I thought.

what a gentle girl! after cutting the big and famous for some Bach I came across this one. I hope she continues to play for herself and keep loading on that fish. … what a light lightly Gavotte! I like. I am gonna send my mom and my grandma.

Play more Bach please! (God, i'm so jealous of your talent...)

[@artisanauto]

I like her Bach renditions, which are very respectful and accurate, contrasted for instance by Glenn Gould's versions, which while extremely virtuosic, sometimes seemed to be a bit irreverent?

[@artisanauto]

***** No argument, I am just expressing my personal preference. Gould's performances are engaging, quirky, and unquestionably virtuosic. A true musical savant.

[@yandon8878]

Comparing Glenn Gould to Tiffney Poon is like comparing a limited edition Bugatti Veyron to a Chevy Impala. There is no comparison.

[@o_polichinelo]

I prefer Schiff

[@dawnwei4309]

Have you ever noticed that Tiffany always moves her hair, pulls her dress up to look at the pedal, adjusts the bench, looks up then starts at 0:53

[@Alban436]

Have you ever tried to ignore all that and just listened to her music? :-)

[@marcorotondi7613]

Dawn Wei E quindi? Marco Rotondi

[@yingfanbai3434]

She starts like a few seconds earlier than 0:53 like at 0:50 is her first note😍

[@marcos27041983]

Ótima expressão! Parabéns.

[@kaitoxxjeanne]

how can you play it so musically??? T_T i'm so touched with your playing, tiff :')

[@reneeya5947]

Lol I love it how everyone else commented on this like seven or five years ago and me just commenting😅😅

[@neonRTowner]

If not the equal (well yet anyways!) of Andras Schiff playing Bach, she captures the fugue elements and well tempered clavier components quite well. She is indeed excellent.

[@henrystoll5807]

I love Tiffany’s playing in general. However, I prefer Rudolph Serkin’s 1950 version of this piece, also available on KZbin. The slower movements are deeper and more profound. Tiffany was so young when she recorded this. I would love to hear her revisit her interpretation now that she is older.

Out of curiosity, I was wondering if the last phrase of Sarabande is improvised or from a specific edition.

[@yuritaguchi21]

+Seung-Hwan Lim What do you mean?

[@shlim76]

+Yuri Taguchi I just noticed the last phrase of Saraband is slightly different from some other performances and the score that I have. So, just wondered if it is her own or from a specific edition of this piece. it is nothing special since I enjoyed this performance a lot.

It's a revised version

[@peterfreyhan7562]

Why does nobody, but really nobody from more than 20 of these KZbin videos, perform the Gavotte from this 5th French Suite as a true Gavotte? Well known or unknown, they all get it wrong. Is that too strong language from an unknown like myself? But read on, and I'll prove it. Like all Gavottes it starts with a double upbeat, three-four-ONE-two, three-four-ONE-two. But everyone plays it as if the first note was the first beat of the bar, the DOWNbeat. Prokofiev got it right in his 'Classical Symphony' parody: "diddle diddle DUMPy DUMPy DUMPy", now THAT's how a Gavotte should go. Peter Freyhan.

@Miyu Soh Bach didn't have pedal XD

[@stevefoley4073]

+alcyonecrucis But if he did have a 20th/21st century piano, you can be sure he'd have used it to the full.

[@kriteon]

+Steve Foley his music would be completely different though, it wouldn't be this

[@stevefoley4073]

May be so, may be not. His favourite instrument wasn't the harpsichord, as is generally believed. It was the clavichord, which is a big step towards the piano. We'll never know of course, but I take your point.
