Bach is great, Trifinov he does not play music, he is music.

[@artysanmobile]

I’ve studied and fallen in love with JS Bach’s music my entire life, or at least from the age of 6. Long ago, I came to grips with the notion a human lifespan isn’t sufficient to hear all of it, particularly as it continues to write itself anew in the minds of great performers. I’m in my seventh decade of utter fascination and have just heard here yet another understanding of my beloved Bach. Life promises only to get better.

[@iguarni]

Come dice Helene Grimaud Bach è il Padre della Musica. Dopo di Lui tanti immensi compositori però tutto comincia con lui. Lo stesso Mozart che reputo fuori dal nostro sistema solare, tuttavia quando venne a conoscenza dell'Arte della Fuga rimase attonito per l'equilibrio delle voci e la perfezione armonica. Bach è un vero genio del Genere Umano.

[@iguarni]

Daniil at his best

[@jrodriguezpiano]

Genius = clarity + tenderness. Really? Its that easy? What the hell is tenderness? Clarity is a basic necessity when it comes to a fugue. It takes genius to be clear? Then every pianist student on planet earth must also be a genius, since being clear with your playing is lesson 1 on performing from most teachers.

[@mysticmouse7261]

[@samuelfabian9737]

Mehr als das. Es ist sozusagen ein Sieg über den Tod. Trifonov ist einer der ganz wenigen, der den letzten Satz, den Bach nicht mehr vollenden konnte, fortgeführt hat und auch vorspielt. Bachs Sohn Carl Philipp Emanuel schreibt dazu: „Über dieser Fuge, wo der Name B A C H im Contrasubject angebracht worden, ist der Verfasser gestorben.“ 1:04:58

This interpretation is so *new* ! Although these variations have been played by so many musicians, in such a diverse variety of instruments and formations, this one, back to the simple piano solo, really brings a novel, refreshing view about this masterpiece. At some point, e.g. around 18:00, I even hear a "romantic" feeling, it's so new! the nuances, tempo, sentiment... looks nearly "moderne" to me, although I love so much baroque...
