I think Zimmermann's Bach is very good. Pace is superb. These sonatas are not so famous, not "Bach's biggest hits", but they have a mood of their very own. One more aspect of Bach's mega-diverse musical output.
Bach never wrote for piano. Thank goodness. He wrote for the instruments he was familiar with, as all composers do. This recording, while wonderfully played, cannot represent Bach''s intentions... only a distant view, through 19th/20th cent lens. Of course everyone knows this, but few people seek to learn what Bach wants to tell us...
Bach is playable and listenable on every instrument. It means piano, also. You probably never listened to, e.g. Tatyana Nikolayeva, so from the depths of your ignorance tell us what Bach wanted to say and "thank goodness, he never wrote for the piano". Being a listener from 20th and 21stcentury, I really don't mind that music is played this way, nor I feel at loss if it is not played on "original instruments".
@@MilanMinic-kk3kh Of course Bach is playable on every instrument. But if you think about how what was in Bach's head when he composed it, he can only have the sound of instruments of his time in his mind. As with any composer. When you play Bach on piano, harpsichord, clavichord, organ, as I do, it becomes obvious that the old instruments can uncover subtleties that the modern ones cannot.
What I don't like is that the tone and the volume of the piano makes it a bit unbalanced with the violin's melody, but I don't think the problem is the staccato itself. Contrasting articulation can create a cool effect: the second movement of vivaldi's winter is very lyrical, and the staccato of the strings accompainment makes it even more beautiful. An harpsichord would sound staccato as well, and I wouldn't mind a soft staccato on the piano if done in a way that enriches the violin melody. It's not the choice of staccato but how it's done, for me.

Why do I dislike this music ?
This can only be discovered b yourself.
I felt more like St Mathews passion 🫶🏼

How can a poser watch Bach on UA-cam, if there was no UA-cam in the time of Bach?

The piano staccato destroyed the lyricism of the first movement.

Then you can just listen to a version with harpsichord.
I kind of like that piano is just as important as the violin.
In bach u can't really play emotionally and legato is rarely played in bach
No, I dont thinkso
The piano imitates " Lautenzug" a possibility of a clavicembalo to imitate a lute, very poetic, like a serenade
no, it didn't. you just don't know how to listen
