Intelligent and beautiful playing. I didn't know Piano Classics was owned by Brilliant. I don't imagine anyone is getting rich off of classical music, creation and distribution. So Brilliant is making great art pretty much for its' own sake. Thank you.
After Tatiana Nikolaieva, following Grigory Sokolov, yet another Russian giant piano player teaching western Europeans how to be faithful to the spirit of the Goldberg variations. No frills, no drama, just the music. Thanks Brilliant Classics.

Very nice, each artist has their own interpretation, and like Goldberg, 32 variations, I've come to appreciate them all, like different flowers...how boring life would be if they were all the same...but we do have our favorites... Good way to start the day!!
This was a great performance thank you. Clear, and held together convincingly throughout. I enjoyed it far more than most versions, and felt JSB would have approved it wholeheartedly.
Absolute crystal clarity, beautiful without being ponderous or plodding. I just ran over after listening to Tureck's version, yee gads what a difference.

This is one of my favourite recordings of the Goldbergs - others are Pierre Hantai, Gustav Leonhardt and (absolute favourites) both of Angels Hewitt's recordings.
This is my favorite rendition of Bach's GBV, on the piano. Thank you for releasing it! My favorite rendition on the harpsichord; the one by Pieter-Jan Belder, is another one you released.
another great interpretation is Claudio Arrau - poor quality recording but worthwhile listening, Tharaud's has been my favorite, this one a bit slower but magnificent....
Para mi humilde gusto esta de Koroliov es la mejor interpretación de Las Variaciones Goldberg y tengo su presentación en el Bach Festival Leipzig del 2008 en CD y DVD
Je to moc hezká hudba. Škoda, že hlavní účel často byl k tomu, aby fráterníkům nalákala ovečky k jejich nečistému činění, hlavně tomu katolickému. Tak je znásilnili, když ne doslova, že jim musely platit desátky a já nevím, co ještě. Pokud k tomu ještě skutečně nebyly fyzicky skutečně znásilněny tak, jak se to dnes s "duchovními" často provalí. Také se jim určitě líbilo, když mohli někoho nechat týrat, třeba mladou krásnou ženu a dívat se na to - inkvizitoři slavní bratři kazatelé třeba. Ono to ale není nic nového. Třeba pohanští kněží ve starověké Alexandrii zase najímali génia starověké mechaniky Heróna. Ten jim zase vymýšlel a dělal zázračné mechanizmy, například automaticky otevíratelné dveře do jejich pohanských chrámů. Na tehdejší dobu to byl div. Historie se s obměnami opakuje. Ale krásná hudba, opravdu.

I loved Evgeni's live video of the GBVs the first time I heard it and it became my go to...Great that you have released this on CD. But, to allow YT to put a commercial in at the very end of the oopening aria, before the dramatic first variation is one of the worst intrusions I've heard on YT. Sirs, please right this gross injustice to Mr. Koroliov Respectively, Jake
Hello from Pennsylvania. This music was written for the harpsichord. They should be played on that instrument. How about a rendition on the tuba!! CAS.
Adrian Grant Hello again from Pennsylvania. You comment makes no sense. I was commenting on the version which was uploaded. My comment would inappropriate if I made it referring to a version already being performed on the harpsichord. I guess you got an F in the course on Logic! Happy New Year to all. Even you!! CAS
Rodrigo Damasceno Once more note from Pennsylvania. Thank you for the compliment, I think. UA-cam Classical music is about as close as I get to so-called “social media”. I have no idea what “trolling” means as you have used it, but thanks for writing. CAS
Please mention that it is a piano version in the description of the title next time. I am a heart patient and this is seriously damaging my constitution. Thank you.
@@mrJohnDesiderio I the description it reads only "J.S. Bach: Goldberg Variations" and although the blue letters are saying something of "Classical" in the miniature that is ofefred you might presume it is the original performance with that short description instead of an arrangement for piano. UA-cam is very good in remembering what you have clicked and wll offer the same player over and over again unles you mention several times that you are not interested but in that case you will exclude any original hpschd Goldbergs as well :-( It can be easily avoided with a good description..

I don't know what is the 'magic' of Glenn Gould version. Is it the speed? Certainly he used half of the time that other players to play this masterpiece. Koroliov: 1:25:15; Arrau: 1:17:57; R. Tureck: 1:31:10; Sokolov: 1:27:50; Ishizaka: 1:22:10; Zhu Xiau Mei: 52:22; Gould: 47:19. So maybe a masterpiece in speed but not in clarity. At least you can hear each single note in this version! That's not putting down Gould version, simply he is (was) on the minority. Most "virtuoso' players take well over one hour to play this piece!
@@JosFer-om7ir if you listen to his interpretation of 1982 your can clearly see that the speed is not the point. The point is that every notes volumes, time and ornementation is analysed to serve the melody, every voices volumes and presences is perfectly masterd. Its such a perfectly clear and beautifull speech, that is extremely difficult to obtain with such pieces that are made from so much differents Voices… playing slower some of the variations can make the speech of the music meaningless and cold like in this album; Also the big difference in this is due to the fact that glenn gould didnt include the 7 canons of the original piece in is recordings
@@psypau Well, I have listened to that version of Gould and many others beside. What many people don't realise is that these variations were not written to be played on a modern piano; they were written for the harpsichord. Any player who uses forte to play them is wrong, as the dynamics of the harpsichord do not allow to play louder, or softer, only faster or slower to achieve the same effect. No matter what my opinion is, it is a piece of music very demanding for any player to undertake. What I do not like is when people dismisses a work of this magnitude just because they prefer other version. i.e. Callas was the best, the rest are rubbish sort of thing. But we'll agree to disagree! Do not take personally! Regards.
@@JosFer-om7ir i respect and will take your advice about not dissmising some great work like this one, it was an impulsive reaction cause realy did not appreciate the interprétation. Otherwise if u dont use volume on the piano then dont play it cause it will sound terrible this is not an harriscorp, the sound can not be beautifull and without nuances because the strings are not pinch but hit..
I'm sorry, I don't see how. The modern piano is a powerful machine, and hence obviously the only qualified for `racehorse' in your metaphor. What could be thought donkey-like about the very crafted, but fertile, Goldbergs? What on Earth are you trying to say?
@@TheDavidlloydjones I agree with you when you say that the piano is a powerful instrument, but for Debussy and Rachmaninoff. I am trying to say that the piano sacrifices dynamics and transparency of the counterpoint in the Johann Sebastian Bach's music. These kinds of executions should be called transcriptions or arrangements and nothing more. Please, try this ua-cam.com/video/1AtOPiG5jyk/v-deo.html or this ua-cam.com/video/N2Txp5UlB40/v-deo.html
Listen to fine variations played by Andras Schiff on his Bösendorfer piano. No instrument of this fine kind could be produced at Bach’s time. Instruments can improve, can ! A Stradivari perhaps not again.
Intelligent and beautiful playing. I didn't know Piano Classics was owned by Brilliant. I don't imagine anyone is getting rich off of classical music, creation and distribution. So Brilliant is making great art pretty much for its' own sake. Thank you.

L'onda sonora si frange in una miriade di altre onde in modo catafratto . È un gioco di riflessi un rimandarsi continuo che trova una unità apparente.
Such an amazing music!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
incredible musicianship, although with a sometimes too heavy sound for my taste. Nonetheless, a wonderful recording and reading of this masterpiece!

However Perahia interpretation is my absolute number one, this one can be easily located on the 2nd position. Beautiful
Keep coming back for the 1st, and 2nd, and the 3rd… the lot
Thanks.
Sovrabbondanza barocca, enfasi.
È un gioco di possibili, una unità senza unificazione.
Nice tempo. So similar to Goulds 1982 performance.
At last at a tempo I can manage! Most of the other artists played it so fast that discourages me to attempt this work which I love. 😀

I like this version also very much quite different to the version of Andras Schiff, who is certainly the master in playing the piano.

What many people don't realise is that these variations were not written to be played on a modern piano; they were written for the harpsichord. Any player who uses forte to play them is wrong, as the dynamics of the harpsichord do not allow to play louder, or softer, only faster or slower to achieve the same effect. No matter what my opinion is, it is a piece of music very demanding for any player to undertake. What I do not like is when people dismisses a work of this magnitude just because they prefer other version. i.e. Callas was the best, the rest are rubbish sort of thing. But we'll agree to disagree! Do not take personally! Regards.
@@JosFer-om7ir i respect and will take your advice about not dissmising some great work like this one, it was an impulsive reaction cause realy did not appreciate the interprétation. Otherwise if u dont use volume on the piano then dont play it cause it will sound terrible this is not an harriscorp, the sound can not be beautifull and without nuances because the strings are not pinch but hit..
Playing Golberg variations on a modern piano is like putting donkey ears on a race horse ...
I'm sorry, I don't see how.
The modern piano is a powerful machine, and hence obviously the only qualified for `racehorse' in your metaphor. What could be thought donkey-like about the very crafted, but fertile, Goldbergs?
What on Earth are you trying to say?
@@TheDavidlloydjones I agree with you when you say that the piano is a powerful instrument, but for Debussy and Rachmaninoff. I am trying to say that the piano sacrifices dynamics and transparency of the counterpoint in the Johann Sebastian Bach's music. These kinds of executions should be called transcriptions or arrangements and nothing more. Please, try this ua-cam.com/video/1AtOPiG5jyk/v-deo.html or this ua-cam.com/video/N2Txp5UlB40/v-deo.html
Listen to fine variations played by Andras Schiff on his Bösendorfer piano. No instrument of this fine kind could be produced at Bach’s time. Instruments can improve, can ! A Stradivari perhaps not again.
He plays it too staccato and percussively. Unmusical.
nicht so doll. Ach Mensch, ist es so schwierig, das gut zu spielen?
square and totally boring
ANOTHER boring rendition of this annoying work.Only Yuan Sheng sets the milestone.
