This concert is a testimony. He was obviously at peak form, the music is just sensational. I first listened to this music with his cds back in the nineties, but this is something else. The Italian Concert he plays here, to me, is the best rendition I have ever witnessed. A video to be remembered and shown to young pianists. Also, the audience seems to be very aware that they are watching something special. And in top of that, Mr. Schiff was enjoying the music he was playing. This is a Celebration
The Courante from the 6th suite has an amazing performance, but the whole thing is completely remarkable. This has to be one of the finest things available on You Tube.
I don't know why, every time when i listen to Andras Schiff playing Bach, i feel myself sitting in a church, praying God and surrounded with angels. Thanks for uploading.
Es gibt wohl keinen anderen zeitgenössischen Musiker, der eine so intime Beziehung zur Musik von Bach hat und mit ihr so by heart vertraut ist. Nicht weil er auswendig spielt, sondern weil er eine organische, natürliche Inklination zu Bachs Werk hat, das nicht er interpretiert, sondern das ihn, Sir Andras, auslegt. Einzigartig.
Ich stimme Ihrem Kommentar zu. Herr Schiff hat ein tiefes Verständnis für Bachs Musik als Ganzes. Ich liebe Bach und seine Musik. In diesem System der Dinge wird es nie wieder einen Bach geben. Wir sind gesegnet, beides zu haben. Nochmals vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Kommentare mit uns geteilt haben.😊
Благодарю! Но не только за исполнение,но и за тёплую,мягкую улыбку. Когда Андраш Шифф улыбается,то улыбаются и его глаза. А мне это очень нравится. И я желаю ему долгих творческих лет. Спасибо Вам! 22.10.2023.

I cosign, 100%! That was the greatest rendition of the Italian Concerto I have ever heard, and live no less!

La magie du Maître Bach sous les doigts d'A Schiff. Merci. 🙏

I love his playing here. Look how relaxed his hands are. No tension whatsoever. The music just comes out of his fingers effortlessly.
He was on fire that night, the overture is sublime, my personal favourite recording
13 years ago, but Bach is timeless and so is sir Andeás Schiff.
Wonderful
What a gift from Mr. Schiif for this wonderful performance.
did this guy really just play for 2 hours straight? what an amazing achievement
He accompanied in Winterreise, then played a complete Schubert sonata. (Wife reported)

I've been listening for the third day in a row. Ingenious.

I love this recording of the French Suites. That frrst Allemande gives me goose pimples every time, divine.
Enjoying every note. My deepest gratitude!
Ln'excellence avec Andras Schiff s'invite à l’interprétation de Bach dans le palmarès des meilleurs
The man has the touch. Such magic! I'm going to find his CDs.
Not the touch is magic but the flow.
Wow!.. Sencillamente maravilloso! Gracias!
Excelent and virtuos
Magnificent
If Perahia's DG album is a textbook, this surely is a book of poetry (I love both).❤
GODLIKE MUSIC
Hermosa y maravillosa interpretación de Schiff, Bach es sublime. Gracias, gracias
Great music and playing
I think he has done different renditions of the French Suites. The present one is of a high order. Humbled. Beautiful !
Спасибо большое, чудесное исполнение!
no pedal and the piano sings with that beautiful bel canto legato ...!how he gets that singing tone is a mystery to me.
Amazing ! 👏👏👏
Thank you, Sir!❤
És com escoltar al propi Bach tocar la seua propia obra.
Extraordinario❤
Wonderful
Heavenly❤
The World just stopped! Wow.

maybe u can be like chopin, solo artist touring europe
only certain plp can get away with doing that, if i were to select piano, i would select a gloss finish because it's gonna be furniture anyway
no point selecting piano, i think it brings the value of piano down when u do that
1h 20 bourree out of Solar System
Second to none
Why in the world do they linger on a close up of the face of Schiff? I want to see his fingers - not his pores!
is the piano going out of fashion
No
God DAMN baroque music sounds bad on a Steinway grand. This is not music. It's a bunch of notes put together.
