So refreshing to hear Bach played on a piano without concern for being historically “correct,” or trying to imitate a harpsichord. Feinberg never forgets to make beautifully singing music-and winds up making the most correct interpretation of the WTC to my ears.
In my youth, the summer I struggled to pass the enroll exams at the musical college I used to listen to LPs with WTC rendered by S. Feinberg which I believed was the only true interpreter of Bach to humanly understanding. Still the same way of feeling.
Now, bless the heart of those who publicized this jewel. My God, it is Sebastian himself playing that keyboard. Never have I heard such intimacy with the music of Bach. Comparable, perhaps, to Cortot playing Chopin, or Schnabel playing Beethoven...but surely, this is a desert island record. No two ways about it. Thank you for posting it!!!!!!!!!!!
А я ровно столько же лет назад приобрела эти два диска и это было одно из сильнейших впечатлений. Самуил Файнберг, Бах, рояль Бехштейн , молодость. До этого прелюдии и фуги звучали только в моем исполнении переигранные за все годы в музыкальном училище и консерватории. Надо понимать мой школьный уровень! И вдруг...открылись горнии выси и высота Небес! Неземная красота музыки Баха в исполнении Самуила Файнберга, этот океан чувств и эмоций и образов предстали в масштабе, неведанным раннее провинциальной девочке. И вот снова те же чувства! Глубокая благодарность за эту запись фирмы "Мелодия"!
Thanks a lot for this transfer, the sound dynamics are in their place. Two weeks ago I was lucky enough to come by 3 of the records form the 6 LP set on the old Melodiya label (in fact, it's MK on the label, while the logo is a torch) and bought them instantly. Yours are in a better shape. This is fantastic!
Je trouve que Danièle Balavoine était tout comme Samuïl Feinberg un Archange. Bravo Samuïl Feindberg, que votre époque à dû vous faire souffrir et au lieu de vous tourner les pouces vous avez retournez vos doigts dans un élan de lumière de toute clartée , de toute beauté et vous deviez être un bon compagnon. Bien à vous Monsieur Samuïl Feinberg, je cite Danièle Balavoine comme un autre être capable de merveilles sonores différentes, moins riches en harmonie mais plus direct avec l'appui du réseau hartman radio-televisé. Merci encore pour votre force d'âme.
That Dark forces suppressed this man's ability to be known throughout the world is a travesty.He was a first rate composer and his music has been championed by Marc-Andre Hamlin the brilliant Canadian pianist.
Je voudrais juste savoir pourquoi il n'a jamais enregistré l'Art de la Fugue Cela nous changerait des platitudes de quelques pianistes de 15° zone que l'on trouve ici; La question ne se limite évidemment pas à Feinberg mais dans son cas, le regret n'en est que plus fort.

Feinberg was s genius, his interpretation of the WTC Books 1 + 2 is a precious treasure.
This is one of the most magical piano recordings ever made.

He brings out the hidden romance in what is otherwise a 'study' prelude in no 1
Kinda have to agree.
BACH WAS A ROMANTIC, GODAMM !!! ALL GERMANS ARE ROMANTIC !!! ALL OF THEM !!
I think his interpretation is not the original idea of Bach
Bach is very classical
He plays more romantically
Arguably the most poetic recording of WTC 1
True! without forgetting Edwin Fisher...
Ha! Someone who doesn't bang the hell out of the second prelude. I like this interpretation
Feinberg and Landowska - same age...same class..... Feinbergs voicing is .... simply DEVINE!
Merci beaucoup pour la qualité de la reproduction sonore... En plus du reste !

What a beautiful comment!
У меня такие же ощущения.
For me no better recording of the WTC! Feinberg at his best here.
MAGIC from the earliest notes on
This is such wonderfully human, honest playing.
Thanks ADGO , Magnifique interprétation de Bach,par un grand pianiste Samuïl Feinberg dans nos coeurs
Un génie trop peu connu sauf des connaisseurs. Autant il avait de talent comme pédagogue et interprète, autant il restait discret.
What a beautiful discovery of wonderful Well-Tempered interpretation! Thank you.

Какое прекрасное звучание инструмента!живое,тёплое,человечное..
This, and the Richter recordings. Gold.
Absolutely!!
First heard (was dazzled by) this LP at the old U.of Toronto music library, about 45 years ago. Your LPs ARE in great shape.

Thank you for this recording. I have just fallen in love with this genius.
Way better than Richter, better than almost everyone else, maybe even the best...
Wonderful, so imaginative and fluid.
Thanks so much for this magistrial rendition of the WTC
Immense thanks for sharing this magnificent rendition of the WTC.
Amazing sound and performance!
WOW incredible transfer
The feeling of hearing these played by him hits different when you've played some of them before... I will never hear them the same.
Phenomenal musician!
ADGO, thank you so much.

Une absolue merveille.
Celestiale interpretazione. Bravo!
This is wonderful. You should find and rip Book 2!
спасибо за музыку очень умиротворяюще и красиво.и вдохновляюще...спасибо!
Wonderful. Thank you.
¡Maravillosa interpretación! Sentimiento y técnica.
Absolutely amazing
This is truly lovely. Thank you for sharing.
It is a form of revelation…

Aparte de un célebre pianista, Feinberg fue un notable compositor.
Thank you so much!
May we hope that you will also post the LP transfer of Book 2?
Thanks so much for this!!!! Amazing.
The man was such a poet!
that is so good
I like! May be to mach soul for this work.
Thank you.
Miraculous.
I like Book2 too!

Avez-vous écouté l'Art de la Fugue par Tatiana Nikolayeva?

Not steynway, clearly!
Bachstein
@@sasha42196 Yes probably Bechstein(clarity and singing low medium.
👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋✅
Is Dinu Lippati sitting beside Samuil Feinberg!
L école russe du piano reste la meilleure merci
"Он не ручей - он океан"!!!
Er ist kein Bach, er ist ein Ozean!
Really?
On dirait Dinu Lipatti sur la photo
Русская пианистическая школа.
Só perde para Sviatoslav Richter...
Nice but not quite the otherworld of Gould
Gould's "otherworld" could be eccentric, idiosyncratic, and neurotic to boot. Let's not measure all interpretations by one yardstick.
I would argue that JSB would applaud Gould’s “neurotic “
mastery of his keyboard works
