    Like the first movement in this series, Gould's choice of tempo is amazing. There's no need to rush! You can hear every single beautiful note! 3:18 cracks me up every time. I never noticed any other performer employing rubato in the last measures of this movement. Brilliant.

      I've heard Martha Argerich do it , albeit within the context of her typically suicidal tempo. It works far better at Gould's tempo. And so do many other musical elements. I admittedly love a good fast romp of this movement, but this was an eye opening interpretation.

    I didn't think I was going to like this, but having listened to it a couple of times, I get it. It has a weight of intellect which is rare and certainly trumps most modern interpretations. The macro-crescendo over the whole course of the movement is breathtaking.

    It's interesting that his interpretation of the Precipitato here is quite different from the recording he made several years later. But that's no surprise given the very different ways he approached his two recordings of the Bach "Goldberg Variations", one at the beginning of his career and the other near the end of his life.

      The sheet is always the same. It is not a live concert. In the complete video Gould talks about this sonata explaining this Prokofieff's work. After explaining, he puts the score on the piano and starts playing. This is why the sheet is there although Gould plays by heart as usual.

    • @Molybdaenmornell
      @Molybdaenmornell 4 года назад +2

      @@gene397 I know the Sokolov version and have loved it for years due to its very sharp articulation and fascinating contrast between varied dynamics and absolutely constant tempo (i.e. it has no rubato at all!). It's like a relentless machine: no matter what happens, the pace is constant; not fast, perhaps, but utterly uncompromising; like a freight train lazily, driving through all sorts of rubbish people have thrown onto the rails.
      As for the Slavic soul: I don't have that, but this piece gets me going all right and I think the limitations of my own performances are technical (I'm a decent amateur, not a virtuoso pro) rather than expressive. I'm not that keen on invoking insurmountable barriers between the souls of different nations. I think soul varies a lot more within countries than between them.
      Have to say, though, that I was also surprised to find Glenn Gould playing this, because I associate him with Bach. Though Bach can be pretty motoric (e.g. his C minor prelude and fugue). I also admit that I have little idea why Gould puts in that solitary rubato. It sounds like he brakes to let the music change direction. But I don't see his face doing anything wrong at that moment, nor does he seem to lose control of his body in any other way. Gould is famous for humming and generally doing odd things while he plays and I wouldn't read too much into his expressions. To me, they look like he's acting a madman, which seems fairly appropriate to the music.

    普通のピアニストは、左手のメロディーラインを、単に楽譜に書いてあるから、目立つように強めに弾いているだけの事だ。そこに、弾きながら演奏が美しいと思えるように、歌ったり音色を変えたり工夫をしている。でもそれだけだ。グールドは、この曲がそういう構造を持っている事に興味があり、だから対位法的特徴付けをして演奏している。順番が逆になっている所が面白い。似ているのはソコロフ位だね。
