  • When Bach arranged a work, or rather rewrote it, he couldn’t resist giving it a personal twist. This was also the case with this Concerto in D major, a harpsichord version of Vivaldi’s Concerto in D major for violin and orchestra, RV 230 (concert no. 9 from Vivaldi’s collection L’estro armonico). Harpsichordist Richard Egarr explains, for example, how Bach added an interesting part for the left hand in the third movement, and how in the first movement he fitted a whole string orchestra onto one harpsichord, while also making the music more appropriate for keyboard.
    Recorded for the project All of Bach on 11 May 2018 at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

      James Flores this whole concert was superb. This particular performance stands out to me though; I followed along with the score and this piece strikes me as very difficult to play musically and with interest (middle movement in particular). He did such an outstanding job.

    Wunderschöne Aufführung dieses fein komponierten und perfekt arrangierten Meisterwerks im lyrischen Tempo mit klar artikuliertem doch etwas warmherzigem Klang des historischen Cembalos und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Bestimmt die beste Kombination der höchsten Technik und der angeborenen Lyrik!

    Belle interprétation de ce concerto italien. Bel instrument d’époque aussi. Dommage que l’acoustique de cette salle emblématique du Rijks Museum soit trop réverbérante et assèche quelque peu la sonorité de ce magnifique clavecin. On croit aussi entendre un léger bruit de fond en provenance du musée. Je préfère les enregistrements dans la sublime ex-demeure de Gustav Leonhardt à Amsterdam.

  • @paulcaswell2813

    Wonderful instrument. Sad to see the old girl in a museum though - until recently it was in the hands of the same family who originally bought it in 1640, at the Schloß Ahaus, Westphalia. (O'Brien 1640b IR).

    What's the point of playing a beautiful double like this if you're going to subject our ears to three movements in a row without ever uncoupling the manuals?

    • @soundknight
      @soundknight 4 года назад +1

      Are the manuals the mechanism that makes it play two keyboards at the same time?

      @Beach_comber 4 года назад +1

      @@soundknight The manuals are the keyboards. It's perfectly normal for a player to use both keyboards for a whole piece like this. At the start of the Allegro, Egarr plays on the top keyboard only (though you can't see this) and this only sounds one set of strings.

      @BachFlip 3 года назад +1

      I think his tempo in the third movement was far too ambitious - it is just an allegro after all. The music is absolutely loaded with 32nd notes, and the left hand at the top of page 3 is a killer to play. He is not the only one though; Many, many players (including the great and the good) play this as if they have a train to catch, and most of them, quite understandably, cock it up!

  • @MrMASSEYJONES
    @MrMASSEYJONES 2 года назад

    I should be impressed, but not really.
    While I thoroughly love Bach, this artist constantly refers to his sheet music, and seems to labour at it.
    Meanwhile, young Elisey Mysin from Russia, who is now around 12; and has been playing Bach since he could hardly reach the pedals, would do it easily, without any sheet music whatsoever.
