    Lucky to be able to hear these pieces put together with David Russell's masterful skill, care and precision.

    This is the most beautiful piece of Bach. So very difficult to play and hold together. Great played by David.

    I keep coming back to David’s interpretations of Bach, he has something most other players lack. Truly masterful playing.

    A marvelous rendition. The more I listen to David Russell, the more I like him. I notice that, unlike every other guitarist I know (myself included), he plays the Prelude with no lefthand slurs. Very nice.

    • @antione101
      @antione101 7 років тому +3

      I dont either. I don't believe that Bach ever called for slurs in this piece. According to a masterclass I attended with Parkening, this was a Segovia introduced idea.

    • @robertoalexandre4250

      Absolutely! And he pulls it off masterfully. Among the few satisfactory renditions of Bach on the guitar. But then again, Russell (I would say the same of Manuel Barrueco) seems to think in terms of keyboard clarity (I wouldn´t even want to say a guitarrist is trying to sound like a piano) in all his transcriptions of the Baroque. I think this kind of learning from other instruments is what makes the guitar evolve. It´s also good that in his phrasing, the guitar´s colors are still there (obviously not in the Segovian sense, but this is a swerve from the Segovian influence, and a good one at that). But Parkening´s version (minus the Fugue) is also awesome and shows how Bach can be approached from many different angles.

      lol you guys are crazy worrying about the slurs and what´s the "correct" way to play the piece. The piece can be played with different techniques and the spirit will be there. What it asks of you is focus, emotion and clear "cantabile" melodies.

    As always with Russell, expressive. Brings out the fugal entries and subject entries gracefully and with more amplitude.

    Julian Bream brought musicianship, rythm and beat awarness, interpretation, bass and inner voices influced by early counterpuntal music and JS Bach, in the same evolution path one finds David Russell, with certainly the most refined sound combined with flawless thechnique

  • @yakupdenizkahraman9495

    those pieces are just mindblowingly rich.
    every player has differences, some slight some big.
    among all interpretations I listened, I'm guessing almost all of them available on youtube, David Russell's Prelude is my favorite.
    I am worried about that guitar on the cover, I hope someone was holding it on the other side. this is no way to treat a guitar, so recklessly just for the sake of aesthetics. come on photographer, give more respect :)

    Splendid allegro with two clear and clean voices. Although I prefer the version of Bream, who uses left hand slurs, I enjoy Russell's slur-less version as much - though at the very end he is overdoing his ornamentation a tiny weeny bit. Just an itsy bitsy bit.

    Sort of a Julian Bream with technique. Not saying Mister Bream has no technique. He is certainly able to wield it enough to be credibly considered one of the greatest musicians in the world. But Russell has the interpretive sensibilities of a Bream with a little more refinement.

      @@mykultrashe7320 i think he means cleaner, in general. just a little bit more control too maybe. and i will obligatorily note that technique is simply one small facet of music, and that once its sufficient enough to not get in the way, its not as important... to my ear anyway.

    De acuerdo a lo que escucho, la Fuga está tocada en forma romántica, pero debería ser más clásica o barroca. Es mi modesto parecer.
