This is one of my favorite performance and I'm glad to see it on RUclips. On my CD (which has the same picture) she plays the first canon after contrapunctus iv, the second after contrapunctus vii, and the third and fourth after contrapunctus xi. But here all four canons are moved to the end, after contrapunctus xiii. Why? Did she record them more than once?

Wow!!! Beautiful goldberg variations😊

Richter must have respected Britten as very good musician and pianist.All of us do our bit,me an amateur tackling the works as best as I can-mainly for my enjoyment and mental health. Thank the creator for the experience we enjoy.

I was stunned when I first heard them play together. I had no idea Britten was such an excellent pianist. Especially the Grand Duo blew my mind.

Beautiful.

I came across this gem while visiting a disk store. It talked to me in the deepest of myself.

Impeccable intonation.

카세트 테이프가 늘어지도록 들었던 첫 골드베르그예요. 정말 오랫만에 듣게되서 기쁩니다. 이 버전과 함께 했던 옛 추억이 새록새록.. 💗💗💕

Stupendo!!!!!!!

A wonderful performance, contrapuntally clear, unhurried, beautifully characterful.

What sort of brain was/is it that can think of such complex music (fugues in up to at least eight parts to my recollection) which draw you in to listening more, not less....

Grandissimo Kempff

Fantastic

Il ne faut pas oublier que Liszt a fait 3 versions de ces études et que la 3ème ( celle-ci) est l’aboutissement suprême : le but de la virtuosité n’est pas de se donner en spectacle mais de créer de nouvelles sonorités et, je pense que seul Arrau l’a compris. Pour moi qui ai écouté une multitude d’enregistrements de jeunes et aciens pianistes c’est le seul qui sache jouer chasse-neige et se soucie de la couleur des pièces

To me,the best upload to yt ever...The music and the performance feed the heart and the soul ❤❤❤

Nothing better the this...❤

At lecture in Berkeley, CA Alfred Brendel mention Wilhelm Kempff. The audience never heard his name. Sic transit gloria mundi.

Pas certain de la source... Il y a des ajouts pas très réussis.

Muchas, muchísimas gracias, esta grabación es exactamente lo que buscaba. Un abrazo desde Chile.

The first piece that I learned on the harpsichord was Contrapunctus I from KdF and this recording was my performance 'model.' Leonhardt left an amazing legacy.

What a strikingly beautiful interpretation it is!

Your channel is an amazing resource and learning tool, thank you for the time you put into it.

Migliore esecuzione di kunst der fuge. A seguire l'esecuzione di Isolde Ahlgrimm.

Thanks!!

Y a pas à dire, je me sens très old-fashioned !...

Thanks!

Le phrasé est magnifique…. Le son est jamais heurté…. Toujours dans la douceur… la polyphonie est toujours remarquable. Interprétation très originale… très inventive… c’est celle qui m’apporte le plus par rapport à toutes les interprétations récentes… son physique était assez froid mais ses interprétations à l’opposé! C’est très reposant de l’écouter… jamais d’agressivité aucune recherche de pseudo virtuosité comme chez certains!

In this later recording Leonhardt omits the unfinished Contrapunctus XIV, which he believed was not intended as part of the Art of Fugue. Thus the AoF should be considered a completed work.

Wilhelm Kempf with our great Dutch conductor Paul van Kempen. I love this version!

Easily the best recorded performance of the piece available. Leonhardt excelled himself with this. But how many people know of this...? Thanks for posting!

The Genius means Bach, Mozart , Beethoven

Is there a more perfect interpretation os "Feux follets"? here's a pianist that is not tempted to show off and go crazy, bracing his ego for all to see, but a musician that, despite being a slower tempo than normal, is able to hear the music and show us EVERY single note, clear as crystal. BRAVO!

That unique quality of Bach's works that once you start hearing it connects mind and soul in an instant. Everything goes silent, your attention is immediately drawn to the music. And the performance does perfect justice. Thanks for the upload.

Bach must quench the dryness of the soul of modern people

Por eso algunos traducen kunst como elaboracion,o sea en abstracto para los instrumentos pero en concreto para el trabajo de composicion.

The original edition of the Art of Fugue sold about 40 copies and then the plates were sold for scrap metal, which only confirms the anachronistic nature of Bach's late style.

I wish I can hear the completion of Contrapuntus 14 completed by him.

Amazing

Magnific !! Here, music holds the middle between material nature and intellectual nature. It can strip love of its earthly crust, or give a body to the angel according to the disposition of the listener, his chords are thoughts or caresses 🔥

This important set of three sonatas for violin and piano is a complement of the set of three trios op. 1 and of the set of three sonatas for piano solo op. 2. Note that he wrote only two sonatas for cello and piano op. 5.

The last violin/Piano sonata by Beethoven was written during his transition from the so-called second to third manner. Its way back to some sort of simplicity hiding writing treasures is typical of th researches of this transition.

L'une des plus merveilleuses intégrales des concertos pour piano de Beethoven, tout ce monde en état de grâce

Sans doute la version de référence absolue malgré d'autres très grandes versions, un état de grâce pour tous, l'orchestre, le chef et le pianiste

Bach n'était pas le compositeur dont Kempff laissa des interprétations mémorables , retour à ses Schubert, Beethoven évidemment, Brahms, et quelques autres

Miraculous. Sublime. Genius.

This will quenche the dryness of the soul, and be a panacea to purify the soul

Listen to this made me realize how influential the Gould version was. It seems every subsequent version has been at least remotely inspired by his, whereas the versions before his showed truly different ways to understand this masterpiece. Thank you for the upload.

I enjoyed Minsoo Sohn and Bach together.

The great thing about Bach is the many ways in which his music can be played. It makes for an ever new approach. I'm a Schiff/Pheria fan when it comes to Bach Gould I find interesting but nothing more then that. Kempff is as always unpretentious. There is never any kind of show off or unnecessary notes. For Kempff there is never just piano playing. This is some ways quite dry but at the same time clear and without any exaggeration. In that way it's refreshing.
