- Amsterdam Prinsengracht Concert 1992
The so-called Suite de Pièces was not actually assembled by Lully. Lully's fame was so great that his editors often collected his dances and published them as keyboard suites. These transcriptions from Lully's operas and ballets were particularly abundant in the nineteenth century and appeared in editions produced by Théodore Lack and Louis Oesterle. Shura Cherkassky permormed Lully's Suite de Pièces utilizing as a point of musical departure Oesterle's edition published by G.Schirmer un 1904. Cherkassky changes the order of the pieces, making the suite more cohesive, and adds his own touches of ornementation in a very Romantic style.
N.B: In this concert, S.Cherkassky doesn't play "Sarabande" and "Gigue".
La soi-disant Suite de Pièces n'a pas en réalité été assemblée par Lully. La notoriété de Lully était si grande que ses éditeurs rassemblaient souvent ses danses et les publiaient comme suites pour clavier. Ces transcriptions des opéras de Lully et des ballets étaient particulièrement abondantes au XIXe siècle et sont apparues dans des éditions produites par Théodore Lack et Louis Oesterle. Shura Cherkassky a joué la Suite de Lully en utilisant comme point de départ musical l'édition d'Oesterle par G.Schirmer en 1904. Cherkassky change l'ordre des pièces, rendant la suite plus cohérente et ajoute ses propres touches d'ornementation dans un style très romantique.
N.B: Dans ce concert, S.Cherkassky ne joue pas la Sarabande et la Gigue.
I watched this on TV and swore that I would hear him live the next time. A year later I heard him in Utrecht, Holland, shortly before he died. Haendel, Chopin, Liszt, Stravinsky. It was transcendental.
wonderful and elegant, a joy to hear such playing. A big compliment also to the audience! They are really listening, concentrating and appreciating the concert. Unfortunately his is not too often the case.
beautiful ... very sensitive and intimate playing... full of colors
I heard Cherkassky perform this Lully Suite in London. An amazing pianist who could play everything from Baroque to Boulez and beyond. The sound quality in this recording is very good and gives a true image of Cherkassky's tone production.
What an extraordinary pianist Cherkassky was!. Every note note lived in whatever style of music he performed, indeed he could be wayward and somewhat capricious but always in a way that drew the listener completely into his unique sound world.
Amazingly beautiful
Very musical. A great artist!
What a lovely experience.
I'd rather play all Rachmaninov concertos than some of this baroque pieces. It is soooooo hard!!!! Bravo maestro!
Sublime!
Maravilloso, muchas gracias y saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
What a gorgeous video! The music and the very individual style of Shura's pianism is captured perfectly, (i heard him play this in London, like piano345), and the quality of the audience listening is amazing. Shura would have loved the idea of boats and klaxons to greet him, and been ravished by the silence once the music started. The atmosphere is vividly caught. I'd love to hear more from this concert.
BTW, are you sure we don't have the Gigue here? I'm not intimate enough with this suite, but altho i can understand him leaving out the Sarabande, it seems he ends with the Gigue......(?).
You wouldn't believe this man was 83years young here!
Cherkassky said: "You can tell I'm did'nt play well, but you can't tell me I bored you".
True, he plays Allemande, Air Tendre, Courante and Gigue here. Having checked with the music, it seems that they are by Loeillet, not by Lully. It makes sence to omit Sarabande as it is in C major.
Yes indeed, not being a specialist or particularly knowledgeable about this repertoire, i've often been confused by the Lully/Loeillet question and now it seems i'm not the only one! Thanks for clarifying the pieces played, and many thanks for making me listen again as i write this! I can only repeat what i said before: a gorgeous video, a unique event and every note played as a unique event also. Very characteristic how he seems surprised to have finished the piece and stands up suddenly as if waking from a dream. In any case, this is a dream audience, listening with intensity in wonderful silence.
Some of these pieces are by the Ghent composer Jean-Baptiste Loeillet, not by the great opera composer Jean-Baptiste Lully. The two were confused in late 19th and early 20th editions and anthologies.
Which ones?
@@RazomDoPeremohy The third and fourth pieces, Courant and Gigue, both in E minor, are by J-B Loeillet (1680-1730) and are from his Lessons for the Harpsichord, c1712.
CHERKASSKY... LE GRAND-MAÎTRE!
Holly fucking shit !
Perfect
Begining the day discording this is a good way to do it!
😍😍💕👏🙏
How can I get to the score?
That's what i wanna know
where can i find the music sheet for this?
Here is the Oesterle's edition published by G.Schirmer:

But as described above, Cherkassky changed the order of the pieces.
musica barroca al piano? No se si sera buena idea
no se xk, pero al piano me recorda! 1 poco a J.S.Bach
Bueno, parece que el piano fue el único instrumento en el escenario en ese concierto, por lo tanto, sin otras opciones, ¿qué podía hacer? Menos mal que era pianista :) y todos parecen haber sobrevivido a la experiencia. :)
Y renunciar a los logros de pianistas como Cherkassy, Gould, Fisher, Sokolov, Richter, Schiff, y otros?
En mi caso, al menos, va a ser que no.
Los demás, vosotros os lo perdéis...
Giovan Battista Lulli was Italian
