A thoroughly magnificent and powerful performance by Kissin. At the beginning the audience applauds loudly but after a few moments they seem to realize what they've heard and begin to shout, and had I been lucky enough to be there I would have been on my feet screaming my head off.
This is a conducting masterclass, only those who really understand conducting will appreciate this interpretation
This is some of Kissin's very finest work, surprising and revelatory of Kissin's inner musical heart imo
Восхитительно, вторая часть Adagio, более чем, настоящая возвышенная, траурная музыка, возводящая душу в заоблачные дали нездешнего бытия! Фуга - отменена! Благодарность Великому Баху и Евгению Кисину! 🎹🔝🎶🔝🎶🔝 💖

In the thumbnail the light is shining into the camera in such a way to make him look like he's shedding a tear.
He probably was. Inside.
It may well be that Bach wrote this piece for an organ. But Kissin plays it brilliantly fully using the power of the piano. It's a perfection for me!
No he s destroing it :-(

7:26 = *Adagio BWV 564 : sublime !* 🎹🌈
Brilliance. He makes one feel. The Busoni arrangement is different from the Bach in some ways, but Kissin does so much with piano technique, that it all works to a fantastic degree.
Gorgeous performance of a gorgeous transcription. Among other beautiful moments--the chords that start around 12:18, OMG. So much wonderful, imaginative voicing in his playing. I love the way he fully inhabits the slow tempo in the sections before the fugue.
I came looking just for this section because it's so stunning on the organ, but pp in the organ, not loud. Listen to Hans Andre Stamm performance of this section. Not sure why Busoni chose to make a forte section out of it.
*Kissin butchered the Back transcription, OK?? Obviously, @Fred Maus, you don’t know very much about the music of Bach, but don’t feel too badly, because Kissin didn’t either, 20 years ago. Let’s hope he’s received instruction since then. Bach wrote nearly everything using a compositional technique called *P O L Y P H O N Y,* and you can look up the definition of that word. Every single voice, plays it’s own melody; when played individually, they sing….the sustain pedal cannot ever be used, or only sparingly, because it turns the delicate, stunning musical architecture into a thick mud of resonance. Pianists have to play Bach, and composers of his era, _with a completely different technique, in order for each voice to be heard._ Kissin played this piece as though it was a Liszt etude, or even Stravinsky’s “Rite of Spring” four 4 hands, just pounding and pounding and pounding, with constant use of the sustain pedal-NOT APPROPRIATE-and with zero understanding of how Bach’s music is constructed, theoretically, because _that is what informs the keyboard player how to play it!!_ if you want to know how Bach _should_ be played, listen to the Well Tempered Klavier as played on grand piano by Murray Periha and Glenn Gould.
@@voraciousreader3341 Too bad your many "shoulds" prevented you from hearing this magnificence. As for polyphony--large parts of this piece are not polyphonic. When Kissin gets to the fugue, he plays mostly without the sustain pedal, and the texture is crystalline.
Wow, just wow! I love Kissin's interpretation of the pedal section of the Toccata, guessing it's the Bussoni transcription? .. The one time I saw Kissin play live in Birmingham's Symphony Hall in the early 90s brought me to tears of joy and ecstacy. His flawless Rachmaninov's 3rd Concerto took my breath away, totally stunned beyond any words I have - a great pianist full of talent and integrity .. how lucky are we all to hear this great musician time and time again on platforms including UA-cam..
Superb!
Bravo..
Busoni was the "Pink Floyd | Dark Side of the Moon" Prism for Bach.
what an interesting metaphor
so touched💜

Et que pensez-vous de cette interprétation ? @
The best romantic young pianist
Wonderfully played, but justice must be served on the organ♥️
Did you come here just to put down the piano because it is not the king of all instruments? I mean, really... justice is always served when BACH's music is played anytime!
@@enriquesanchez2001 Yes. In the hands of a great performer Bach's music will shine on any instrument and in any arrangement. Its perfection cannot be destroyed.
I completely agree. The piano transcription takes way too many liberties with the piece.
@@enriquesanchez2001 Wow, relax. Putting down piano? What a rude response. If you ever heard the original you would see how much it differs from this piano version, which is over the top Romantic and with incorrect dynamics.
@@bercg Not every transcription of Bach works well. Not if it actually strays from the original in numerous ways.
love the fugue
Magic
Three geniuses unite - Bach, Busini and Kissin.
Bach is the true genius here. No performer will ever equal him.
@@organboiyou’ve never heard him play bitch
Is it the recording or the piano that makes it sound like Glen Gould's damn harpsipiano?

Interpretation is interpretation. It is a contradiction in itself to say someone interpreted wrongly.
Ugh. Not quite.
браво
Bach is the music of God Bach always believed in the eternal Kissin is the best interpreter of this piece
KISSIN IS THE BEST,,,,,,,IIS UNIC NEVER NOBODY LIKE HIM
muito bom '-' realmente
Die Fuge ist grandios auch und gerade auf dem Klavier. Viel besser durchhörbar als bei mancher Orgelaufnahme, vor allem dominiert der Bass nicht so wie auf der Orgel.
17:25 that trill tho
High level Artistry
Si Bach hubiera tenido un piano, ésta tocata hubiera tenido la interpretación que imprime Kissin.
It was an ecclesiastical piece written for organ, but Busoni removed it from the church venue by transcribing it for the concert stage. He did this for many fugues and choral preludes. That seems to upset some people. Well, you can't please everyone. For atheist music lovers like me, it's actually preferable.
For a Christian like me it is lovely as well ;)
Bach the fifth evangelist)
I generally prefer busoni’s version over the original
You have no idea what you're talking about. Bach’s organ works have been played ENDLESSLY as concert pieces all over the world ever since they were first composed, especially after Bach’s death, and well before Busoni or Liszt or anyone else transcribed some of them for piano. Busoni did not "rescue" Bach’s music from religion. Please. And your opinions on God and religion have nothing to do with the matter.
What does instrument have to do with religion? Stop making fun of yourself
The first movement is the least popular according to the playthrough histogram. Why? 😢
ПРЕВОСХОДНО )) !!!
Not the biggest fan of this piece played on the piano. The main problem for me is the grave part of the second movement- there are so many harmonics on the lower notes of the piano that it is almost impossible to hear the harmony- it kinda just sounds like noise.
--- loud is allowed, not noise annoise
Listen to Gyorgy Sebok's interpretation, it's so different than this one.
it starts from 0:43
I prefer Gyorgy Sebok's (György Sebők's) interpretation.
Technically excellent, but the Horowitz interpretation is vastly superior in emotional impact.
Unusual playing for Kissin?!?
13:10
このバッハのオルガン曲のピアノ編曲は、ホロヴィッツのヒストリックリターンが最高だと思う。この編曲は、華麗なピアノ曲として弾くか、オルガン曲として弾くかによって変わる。キーシンは嫌いだが、テクニックは抜群だ。ホロヴィッツと同じ華麗なピアノ曲として弾いている。ちょっとホロヴィッツに似過ぎのようにも思う。一楽章は一緒。しかし、何も感動しないのは何でやろか。

But the fugue...... devine!!!!!
buono
ブラボー！！！
Fun! Prefer the organ much better. Why does Kissin shortchange rests?
Heavy bass octaves (with the fifth? why?) in the adagio. I don’t think a transcription calls for too much pretensions as to being an organ.
The technical perfection is not the emotion The people should learn this :.
Give me an organist and a decent organ ANY DAY
7:26 intermezzo

BWV 564 is not by Bach.
What are you even saying
@@GTXTi-db5xu Exactly what I wrote. The piece is misattributed to Bach. You can Google the topic and find scholarly articles.
@@Oldman808 I think you're thinking of the wrong piece. It's BWV 565 that arguably isn't by Bach (the D minor Toccata and Fugue) not BWV 564
The Adagio is at an absurdly too slow tempo. Just wrong.
the Adagio was so laboured and overdone ...! he is not in the same league as the likes of Gregory Sebok ...!
I completely agree! Gyorgy Sebok's interpretation is simply another dimension, so profound, simple and pure at the same time. Seriously, that's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. It brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it.
Not a good performance style for Bach. Wrong in so many ways. Wouldn't mind listening to him play the Romantics but this is not good.
It's Bach-Busoni, not pure Bach.
Nope! Not the Bach! It _cannot_ be played as a Liszt etude, it _cannot_ be strum and drang….that’s not what Baroque music is about! Bach’s music is *P O L Y P H O N I C,* ffs, and you cannot hear the opposition of the counterpoint in his music, all of the different voices that rise and fall back _CANNOT BE HEARD VIA ROMANTIC PRACTICE!!_ Kissin should have asked Vladimir Ashkenazy or another wise pianist who understands the performance practice to coach him in the way of interpreting Bach….anyway, I hope he knows better now, 20 years into his career.
Organ music especially in the baroque has sturm und drang (and dynamics) in abundance
Si , ma con la giacca che ha...sembra piu' un cameriere...e poi col piano si perde questa meravi
Bach's not his composer.

G.G. ...
キーシンは、ホロヴィッツのヒストリックリターンの真似をしとるだけやないか。音楽性はホロヴィッツには遥かに及ばん。キーシンの演奏はアクロバットか？和音がうるさすぎる。キーシンはオリジナルのオルガン演奏を聴いたことがないんか？オルガンはこんながさつな音がでるかい。キーシンはテクニックはあるが、全く感動がない。他の全部の演奏も同じや。音楽性に乏しい。
おじさんうるさいよ😅
Dear listeners! It's only people without any knowlegde that waste their time on this nonsens! Bach composed this Toccata to show people his technical skills - on the pipe organ, with a pedalboard. 1:38-3:05 is original for pedal solo. To play the pedalsolo with ten fingers is ridiculous! He even play the pedalsolo more slowly with his ten fingers than many of the organists play with their two feet! A complete misunderstanding, it's not a challenge at all! Please listen to organists who perform this composition the way Bach original had in mine.
the question of instrument is irrelevant to Bach music, are you people ever gonna understand this!
I certainly agree with you.
But are we aware that there is absolutely NO document whatsoever to support the conclusive confirmation that Bach wrote this piece for organ??
With it's vividness it's much more tailored for the idiom of a pedal harpsichord (harpsichords& clavichords with pedal keyboard were absolutely usual in Bach's time, and the sources show clearly that they were well used to PERFORM, not just practice). Indeed several manuscripts (with variants of the same BWV 564) may convince us that a pedal harpsichord or clavichord is ideally suited for lively tempos expected for this show-off pedal soli - the style here is quite of the Vivaldi's "dialect", which can be splendidly rendered by a good harpsichordist. Of course, Kissin's rendering on piano is really boring for most of the time, for it's lack of understanding the relationship between Bach's style and Busoni's romantic reaction.
One shouldn't play music for the sake of the challenge.
@@paulomtts One shouldn't write ignorant words for the sake of the challenge.
Enrique Sanchez One shouldn’t forsake arguments for a show of charisma.
