I cannot listen to this without balling my eyes out... what you are doing for world culture, for Lipatti, for beauty, is the most beautiful gift I could ever imagine
Nel 1947 aveva 30 anni...suonava così a 30 anni...a 33 anni ha seguito il suo onnipotente Maestro. Nessuno come Lui ne prima né dopo... davvero nessuno...
Always the pianist I love the most. Thank you for sharing these recordings. A great gift. I can never (as I’m sure like many others) hear enough of his playing. Thank you!
Absolutely marvellous and interesting enough I just played this 78 over my equipment to some friends and they were just bowled over of the beautiful sound and the radiant playing!! Pure bliss!
What a Chopin! Elegance and bravura at the same time. And of course this Bach-Hess, fenomenal... the recording that started this craving of mine for Lipatti's interpretations. Your contribute to piano culture deserves so much distinction! Thank you
If you read the notes in detail, you'll find that this 1947 Bach was never on LP so you surely have the 1950 version; and the Chopin Waltz was only on LP twice ... the Liszt, however, was much more available. All great performances!
This has been widely available in Europe over the years but was on LP in North America only once in the mid-50s and then again in a box set in the 1980s... and then regularly on CD - but a whole lot of people missed it because of its relative scarcity in the vinyl years.
@@ThePianoFiles Hi. A bit of a random question, but a significant point of interest for me, so if you could help I would be eternally grateful. Namely, do you have any anecdotes/accounts of Lipatti's use of the una corda? I'm pretty certain I saw some photos (from the last concert, I think) where his left foot is over the top of it, i.e. he was clearly using it or about to use it in that very moment. I'm fascinated to know what his philosophy was and what he would have instructed his students regarding the use of the una corda. For example, what was his opinion on correct use, was he keen to apply it or used it sparingly, what did he consider to be it's true function on the modern piano etc. etc.? Also, I'm pretty sure during his lessons he would've spoken regarding the sustaining pedal, but that's a lot easier to discern from the recordings (at least to my ears), thus I think I have a fairly clear idea of his sensibilities there. However, it would of course still be great to know his exact opinion on the use of that, too. Thank you so much for all and any information on this.

何度聴いても、涙が止まらなくなります。あまりにも早く天国に旅立たれてしまいましたね😭😭😢😢😢
The perfection is achieved by genius only. Bach with Lipatti is unbelievably unique.

Благодарю!
Мне,так,жаль,что он так рано ушёл из земной жизни.
Но его душа,запечатлённая
в звуках музыки, продолжает его жизнь.
we owe you so so much Mark for your work on this , and bringing the amazing artistry of so many pianists to our attention!
Such exquisite fluidity
If you have lost your faith listen to this.

Habe ich auf LP. Schöne Erinnerung hier. 💕

удивительный пианист.
столько нежности в звуке..и неба
безмерно жаль, что так рано ушел..
A treasure chest for 75 years.
Thanks for a beautiful upload!
fabelhaft
Liszt? Interesting! Thanks for sharing!

J. S. Bach. Choral Jesus bleibet meine Freude aus der Kantate Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben.
Extraordinary session! Thank you for this wonderful rendition!
fielen dank Dinu
I like the fuller bass in this recording of "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring."
Thank you very much for your interesanting explanations.
Bravissimo
Talentul face diferența!❤️
Thanks!!!
sensacional
The inner voices in the Bach seem to come out more clearly here than in the 1950 version.
The Chopin is more hectic here than in 1950.
fire
L'ETERNO ci volle aiutare e fu il nascituro di Eisenach, e fu l'angelo di Bucarest
How different this Jesu is from the 1950!!!
Abbey Road existed in 1947?
Since 1931!
