Claire is Claire. Ever since I've known her from her performance I think 13-14 years ago now at the Hamamatsu international piano competition, she remained so excellent, consistent and very proficient pianist for me with her virtuous, uncomparable technical abilities. Fantastic job!
Великолепно, очень яркая, эмоционально наполненная, драматичная интерпретация! Прекрасная, необычайно одарённая, тем перамент ная пианистка! Очень интересно было услышать такую трактовку шедевра мировой Музыки!
The Fugue may begin at 02:24, but it's all Toccata - touch simply does not get more virtuosic than this. Claire's performance is enthrallingly, beautifully expressive. BRAVO!
Splendide interprétation! Je ne suis pas très fan de la transcription pour piano de cette sublime oeuvre de Jean-Sébastien Bach, mais la version qu'en donne Claire Huangci est extrêmement convaincante!
This is by far my favorite version. Alongside Moonlight Sonata's 3rd Movement by Beethoven, this is my favorite piece in classical, and she did a wonderful job on this. Bach would be pleased, I assume.
She plays very cleanly, and she has a really effortless technique. There is vitality and sparkle in her interpretation of this famous 'big stop' toccata and fugue. Her use of dynamics and texturing is what really stands out, and the fluidity is gorgeous. I have heard other pianists, through the use of the sostenuto pedal, able to get more carry in the bass line, though not to the level of a pipe organ's pedalboard. If there is one critique that I will put forth is that it somewhat lacks the foundation provided by the bass line which is what imparts such gravitas to this composition. She does carry a strong bass punch at the 6 minute mark. But also, I realize that on the pipe organ, that is accomplished by the pedalboard and voiced through massive 16', 32', and sometimes 64' pipes. That can't be replicated on the piano. That said, I am in awe of this pianist's prodigious talent and technique. She is truly a gifted musician and just, in my opinion, completed a tour de force interpreting the great Toccata and Fugue in D minor.
I love it! If you’re going to play this piece, then Dramatize the Hell out of it. Just like this! I’m so Jealous. It’s all about the performance. Go Big or Go home! Thank you
Unbelieveable. i did a search and was just amazed....incredible performance. These days there are so few musicians...now just trying to rhyme ....glad i am old and really can appreciate talent and music that the latest generation will never know. Ty for this.
Shows how different a piece can sound when played on different instrument to that we are used to. Check it out on violin and a small orchestra ruclips.net/video/Hg8Fa_EUQqY/видео.html Or a full orchestra ruclips.net/video/i0nRPDfpbkY/видео.html
With all due respect, this is a truly bastardized version of this piece of music. Toccata and Fugue in D Minor is meant to be played on a full sized pipe organ. A piano is not the right sound and is tremendously limited in the level of instrumentation it can kick out with respect to the range of notes required for this piece. A modern day equivalent would be like trying to play Neil Peart's legendary drum solo in Frankfurt on a 4 piece drum kit. It just doesn't work and is simply impossible due to the limitations of the instrument. You need the whole monster kit to play it because he uses it all! Moral of the story here is: If you want to play this piece, use the PROPER instrument. For heaven's sake!!!
Bach: Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, BWV 565 (Arr. by Busoni)
00:07 01-Toccata
02:24 02-Fuga
It is you wonderful beautiful musicians that make life worth living.
Busoni's arrangements are so challenging!! Claire plays fantastically
2:35 is where Bach turns music into magic such a simple phrase yet so much

Jesus! What technique and passion! Perfect!
C'est une interprétation remarquable qui favorise Busoni tout en respectant l'esprit de Bach et son génie.
Wer oder was ist der Geist Bachs?
Stunning virtuosity and exprssiveness, while remaining true to Bach. The old man would be beaming!

2010년 쇼팽 콩쿨 파이널에 왜 못들어갔을까 싶을 정도로 잘치는 고수, 언젠가 독일에 연주 보러 가고 싶네요
Absolutely beautiful. I have no words.
Gorgeous Claire!
Absolutly perfect. Thank you very much!
Excellent !!! Très bien senti. Impeccable ! Merci et bravo. Cordialement. Olivier F
The Fugue may begin at 02:24, but it's all Toccata - touch simply does not get more virtuosic than this. Claire's performance is enthrallingly, beautifully expressive. BRAVO!
she plays with so much conviction . amazing to see , not only hear . thanks you .
So beautiful à real pleasure thanks you very much.
Amazing! She is so elegant
I can't decide whether to praise her Busoni or her Bach but this is possibly the best version I have heard. Superb playing.
it's played too fast for me but art is all personal tastes
@@FredThomas-x8v I personally found it wasnt fast enough. I really fast tempo on the Fugue bit.
The best piano playing ever! Fantastic!
Grand performance
What a superb interpretation of this piece! Congratulaions on a deeply sensitive and intellectually fulfilling performance.
super super version
Beavissimo!

I do share your assumption :)
@@danielgronsfeld Glad to see others that understand talent properly executed...;)
@Mazzel Tov There’s more than one definition for the word execute.
@@danielgronsfeld bruv can i get the music sheet
@@shujabhatti536 check out imslp :)
Buoancy and brilliant execution of a rarely played Busoni masterpiece!
@Mazzel Tov well it is rarely played, especially the busoni transcription.
Brava veramente !! Complimenti!!
This is my new favorite take on this song since trying to play it since childhood

Üben
Practice
Und Talent!
Without words. Amazing.
It’s Tiffany Poon incognito!
I feel enveloped by her mastery….C seems to get more out of the piano than a grand church organ!
There's only one REAL arrangement. The way you feel like playing it at the time.
Chúc thầy 20/11 sức khỏe và thành công :)
Now i can die happy.

Надеюсь она успела. По крайней мере очень старалась
Bach au piano
It's a great lie that Bach composed Tocatta and Fugue with a helper one.
It belong only to Sebastian Bach.
With all due respect, this is a truly bastardized version of this piece of music. Toccata and Fugue in D Minor is meant to be played on a full sized pipe organ.

i agree. not only that, her interpretation is so stupid that it doesn't even sound like what Bach would intend.
3:37 why would add a note!??!?! You destroyed one of the most beautiful melodies. The rest is fabulous though, great work!
0:42~ の三連符をほとんどのオルガニストは間違えて弾いているから、この演奏は正しくてよい。でも何故 0:10 のように無駄な力を込めるんだ? 残念!!
О боже, дрожь по коже
Peccato per il suono del pianoforte davvero scarso
Trop rapide..
Es esta Rapsdhia. Aporrea. el piano. ,El piáno no tiene buen sonido.
Cosi' si suona una Rapsodia di Liszt...
Horrible interpretation. Bach would be rolling in his grave. ugh.
