This is a nice rendering of the Goldberg variations in a harpsichord by Scott Ross. He was a splendid organ and harpsichord player, and his variations sound beautifully alive. Arrau initiated his brilliant piano career in Berlin playing in the piano the integral Bach keyboard works , but afterwards he said he would not play again Bach works in the piano, as they belonged to the harpsichord. Rosalyn Tureck said, on the other hand, that Bach believed his works were to be transcribed for other instruments, and there are innumerable instances of works that the same Bach transcribed to other sometimes very different instruments (like the transcription for the lute of the violin partitas). Tureck made a very appropriate comparison. She stated the Chopin piano music, for instance, was critically dependent on the instrument timbre, warmth, sound, while Bach works, on the contrary, are more abstract, and less dependent of the instrument than on the musical structure and architecture.

Bach making arrangements is such a red herring. He always rewrote the piece to suit the technique and sonority of the new instrumentation. To simply change the instrument while trying to keep every note in the score the same is the reverse of Bach's practice. Here, the pianist has to fudge or simply omit several notes in the two-manual variations and has no resource to make up for losing the subtle contrast in tone colour between the two registers. It is even more of a red herring to suppose, in the face of his detailed and enormously effective orchestration in cantatas and Passions, that Bach didn't much care about instrumental timbre.

I love the harpsicord sound, but I think there is no reason to be as narrow-minded as many people who always claim that baroque music must not be played on a piano. Bach was quite ahead of his time and therefore IMHO he would have followed the evolution of the modern grand piano whith great interest; I even think that he would be very curious about contemporary electronic sound devices and their possibilities.

La version enregistrée en studio en 1988 est nettement plus calme, plus tranquille et plus claire que celle enregistrée en public en 1985. Toutefois, j'aime mieux la version de Masaaki Suzuki, qui prend des tempos légèrement plus lents, ce qui me semble préférable, tout en restant très vivant ! Ce sont les deux meilleures interprétations que je connaisse. J'ajouterai, pour répondre à un commentaire, qu'il ne peut y avoir de "jeu académique" en musique baroque, puisque c'est de la musique que l'on vient et que l'on ne cesse de redécouvrir et qu'aucun académisme n'a eu le temps de s'installer !

His live recording from 1985 is certainly one of the best recordings of the Goldberg Variations. There is a lot of good recordings, Leonhardt, van Asperen, Hill, Staier, etc. My favorite recordings are, Scott Ross, Isolde Ahlgrimm - kzitem.info/news/bejne/tX-Kyod8knOaoYY - Alan Curtis kzitem.info/news/bejne/yYCPzpOjp2eHZKg and the Bradford Tracey recording (not on youtube). Good also the underestimated recording by Christiane Jaccottet - kzitem.info/news/bejne/1JlvypyIjIN0go4 -, who was a great artist but never succeeded with the big labels and who never got the glory she earned. But Scott Ross is really a great harpsichord player.

Which of Gould's piano versions are you referring to? He recorded it twice -- first in 1955, which was his "break-out" recording when he was really young, with relatively fast tempi; then again in 1981, obviously a more mature man, where he really, really slows things down, in a much more contemplative mood. Both are wonderful, you should be sure to know both, if you are to understand Gould's transformation over the years. It shouldn't sound "weird" on a harpsichord -- it was composed for the harpsichord, and was only later transcribed for modern day piano keyboards. Either way, piano or harpsichord, it is beautiful listening.

In the one hour film documentary about Scott Ross (which is on KZitem) Scott said that Gould didn't understand anything about Bach. I wouldn't go that far, but I am sympathetic to Scott's criticism. Yes, Glenn Gould was great, but I do think that he is over-rated. What dazzled people after his first recording was not just that he could play fast (which many keyboardists can do), but Speed ≠ Quality, especially when it is inappropriate, or just "showing off." I didn't know Scott Ross, but I miss him. Considering the amount of Baroque recordings that he made during his tragically short time on earth, it is hard to imagine how much more great music he would have created had he lived to old age.

"Weird"? Some people would probably say that the Goldberg Variations sound weird when played on the piano. As another Commenter here wrote, late in his career Claudio Arrau said he believed that Bach"s keyboard music (except for organ compositions, of course) should be played on the harpsichord. Living in a modest-size apartment with his wife and many children (and music copiests, during working hours) Bach probably wrote the GV using a clavichord, a small and not very sonorous instrument which by today's standards looks more like a rich kid's Toy Piano than a modern Grand Piano. Furthermore, I am getting a little weary of hearing people say that Glenn Gould"s recording of the Goldberg Variations. are The Gold Standard. I think a lot of people who say that are simply repeating what they have heard others say about the GV.

Anyone who feels that since pianofortes were for the most part unavailable for Bach, renditions must take place exclusively on an instrument of his time, should consider the extra degrees of freedom afforded by the piano, and how Bach might have used these. Moreover, virtuosity does not necessitate speed - Tianqi Du exemplifies this, so even the culturally distant Chinese have become enlightened about such things. Too loud, too fast, too mechanical!

This no doubt is a tongue-in-cheek reference (almost certainly apochcryphal, IMO) about the origin of the piece. As the story goes, the Count of Saxony told his chief attendant Goldberg that he had trouble sleeping and wished that he had some clever but soothing music that would help him fall asleep. The Count knew that Goldberg was a friend of J.S.Bach and asked him to persuade J.S. to write some music that for that purpose. Bach agreed and wrote a theme (the Aria) and 30 variations on it, concluded the work by repeating the Aria, and - voilá - produced what came to be known as the Goldberg Variations. This tale always sounded a bit fishy to me. At least one contemporary scholar maintains that J.S. actually wrote the work as a practice exercise for his son W.F. Bach, whom J.S. believed had the most musical talent of his sons. [KEYBOARDISTS - Can you imagine your music teacher handing you the Goldberg Variations and saying , "Here's a practice exercise for you."? (It was a different world.) ]
