Oh boy, that guy Johann really knew which way was up. I never tire of listening to talented musicians keep his music alive. I say "Well done, Sandra, well done!" Thank you for posting.
A technically strong performance of two great pieces of music.I loved Sandra's light touch and the power of her inner emotions that she added to her performance as well..
What? Bach in San José? In California? Culture In the USA?? Unbelievable. There is hope for America still. As for Sandra Wright: splendid playing. She brings out the melody very clearly above the accompaniment in 'Sheep'. Not easy. Technique and maturity.
About the tempo. I draw you attention to Schumann's suggestion of how his piece "Traumerei" should be played! www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php?PHPSESSID=78ascj9vd1nd2932kqaq887fc0&topic=64437.msg683210#msg683210
God help us if we were condemned by you to listen to this piece at just one speed. Note also the changes in tempo within the so-called fast performances and the so-called slow ones.
Don’t agree at all. Slower isn’t always better. Many seems to believe that slower is equal to more musically. The same way that sadly many believe Antante means“slow”, when it actually means “going”. Although it may be played slower, I doubt that it will made more debt to it.

Awesome! And congrats Sandra, on winning the 1st prize at International Piano Competition of France recently!
Lucky you! To have such a great loving teacher. Praise the Lord.
beatiful!
So very enticing and beautifully played! Such elegance and restraint is refreshing in today's world. Merci mille fois ! madame.
How I regret neglecting my piano studies when I was younger. I'm glad some people were more diligent.
+David Lucey it's never too late when it comes to music!!!
haha .. sounds like in my family, I told my wife not to make me choose between the piano and her. She gave up ... for now!
piano playing is perfect, great, i was amazed

How wonderful to find you again, this time on the computer. What a great concert you gave us in San Francisco yesterday.
Lovely.
Just about the same length of time as the sung aria itself. Lovely!
Une belle interprétation comme toujours, Sandra!
Divine....
Incomparably greater
Indescribable comfort
She used to be my teacher!
Wow. What a lifetime memory.
Beautifully fone. Just a little fast for sheep safely grazing. Watch Allessio Bax and Leon Fleisher.
Sheep may "SAFELY" graze, so it does not need to hurry up. Still a good performance.
genious!

Jesu, although very well played, is just too fast.
dont think so- about right i think

Is this a Busoni transcription?
Petri is who did "Sheep May Safely Graze"
Too fast
