Ho letto 3 biografie in tedesco su Karl Richter e centinaia di recensioni relative alle sue interpretazioni ma che il suo Bach o il suo Haendel somiglino a una marcia militare è una enorme sciocchezza...Mi faccia un esempio, di Richter conosco tutte le registrazioni, sono curiosa... Di solito la sua musica è considerata piena di erhabenheit=sublimità...E poi, per chi forse non lo sa, Richter ha studiato con maestri leggendari, si è diplomato al conservatorio di Lipsia con votazioni mai raggiunte prima, è stato organista nella Thomaskirche di Bach, nel '56 lo volevano nominare Thomaskantor come Bach, ma lui ormai era fuggito in Germania OVEST, il pubblico i colleghi musicisti lo veneravano. Ripeto, lei afferma grosse schiocchezze, e credo di sapere a quali fonti si abbevera.E quando ascolto Bach innalzo un Te Deum di ringraziamento a Richter che mi evita di ascoltare le penose interpretazioni cosiddette filologiche. La discussione è in ogni caso inutile. Se lei non capisce la grandezza di Richter e come abbia eclissato gli altri interpreti bachiani mi spiace per lei.
(Coro): O ewiges Feuer, o Ursprung der Liebe Maybe this is too slow, with undoubtedly too many voices, for purist Rifkin. But the first night I heard this, late at night, with all lights out in the mid-60's, and eyes closed in bed, I had the sensation of seeing flames dancing. Try replicating that with your one-to-a-part, and significantly faster "Truer to Bach" performance. Richter's cantata recordings rule in many respects; perhaps Bach would have concurred
I equally like the Bach-stiftung performance of the BWV 34. This is one of my favourite modern performances of this cantata. Rudolf Lutz has done a great job with Bach cantatas. He should record the whole of Bach's choral work on cd. At least the cantatas.
@@frenchimp Kuijken and La Petite Bande have recorded it 1VPP, but it needs a little more fire than they give it. (You certainly can hear all the parts well, though.) I'd like to hear the Ricercar Consort/Pierlot, Concerto Copenhagen/Mortensen, Gli Angeli Genève/MacLeod or (especially) Concerto Stella Matutina do it.
Dear Annam Cancarini: Karl Richter was a fundamental piece to revive Bach. In my modest opinion this cantata is one of the most beautiful of its composition. If we add to Anna Reynolds (mezzo-soprano) and Peter Schreier (tenor) ... then we touched the sky with our hands. Regards....
Hi. I agree that Karl Richter is the best conductor for most J. S. Bach music. But he is also a great « organist-pianist ». His rendition of the Harpsichord solo ( from what I know Bach is the first composer to put a « piano » solo in a concerto) in 5th Brandenburg concerto is beyond believe. And I don’t mind about the 1960s sound of the harpsichord. It is historical musical jewel. The video is still avalaible on RUclips.
@@annamcancarini6953 and @Frank Kuhl: I thought you were sincere enthusiasts of Bach's music, while evidently this is just a club of hooligans with little inclination to confer with the novelties in the interpretation of ancient music. Moreover, using offenses shows that you have no other arguments.
@@himmerod9117 I do not understand the need to resort to offenses towards those who do not think like you. Many of you express unflattering judgments about modern interpreters but do not accept criticism concerning Karl Richter.
Immenso Bach con il suo, a mio modesto parere, insuperabile interprete. Grande Richter con eccellenti interpreti...
Thanks for showing pictures of the soloists!
Las interpretaciones del maestro Richter son insuperables
O Eterno Fuoco o Principe dell'Amore,ennesimo grande capolavoro di Bach. Al settimo cielo. Immenso.

This is the right tempo for the great opening chorus. Fifty years later the norm is much faster and wrong.
Wie stark ist nicht dein Zauberton, Herr Bach!
Nicht Zauberheit/keit, sondern Gottes Segen! Auch aus Australien^^, Weltes am riesigste Wueste......
Rigtig pompøs storslået majestætisk smuk musik og korsang. Dramatisk men smukt......

Bach=Richter=Erhabenheit. Y como dijo Cioran:´´Bach creó a Gott´´,Ciaoooooo.

Compare with the Windsbacher choir's recent recording.
Compare with the Bach Stiftung performance, much faster.And the flames dance himmlisch like hell! I don't know of any 1VPP performance of BWV 34.

sometimes when I listen to Richter, I find myself checking whether I'm not accidentily watching the video in 0,5 speed ;)
Rifkin? How can a sensible human being listen to such a Bach's music butcher? Richter is the best, period.

@@MiguelAngel-fg3ue I never heard the introducing Choir sing with such passion, love and ardour than here. Ciao my friend!

Poor Richter, makes Bach's music seem like a Wehrmacht's march...

Confermo il giudizio dell'amico Frank Kuhl.
