Thank you for this, Sylviane. I must say, you’ve saved my life with this performance. It’s so pure, so unique, so exquisite. The melody, the middle notes, how you sing with the architecture of the whole piece and the sections, it’s almost magical and unreal. All I hear is barricades of love, of life, of passion and barricades of what making music is. Thank you, thank you so much!

Sometimes an exceptionally gifted, perceptive person can see something in a composer’s music that perhaps they could not see at the time themselves. The spirit of the original is the same & in no way demeaned, but by your interpretation you have given us a different perception of this wonderful piece. I think you’ve recognised that its beauty is best evoked by this tempo, thus letting the melody unfold slowly & gently. Congratulations, and thank you for posting this highly enjoyable video!

after having started to learn this piece, I more and more believe that this is the version that matches my taste the most of all available versions here on youtube. Sylviane brings a lot of subtle details to the surface that are often neglected superficially or killed by speed. Of course this is interpretation of the artist and maybe was not intended by the composer. At least Couperin was not able to make himself heard in the same way - simply because the technology of instruments was not developed yet at that time. This would by the way be my answer to criticism like "this is not Brahms": music is always transporting emotions from the artist to the audience. If Couperin had had a modern piano, I am sure he would have been glad to have so many more possibilities to express feelings than on a harpsichord. Thank you, Sylviane!
@Renshen1957
5 жыл бұрын
If Francis Couperin had a modern piano, he would be perplexed by the heavy, sluggish action (as heavy as an organ with the manuals coupled) compared to harpsichord, the lack of clarity in the lower tenor and bass, and the necessity to play a piece with the tempo indication of vivement (deeply) more slowly by comparison. He might recommend as he did in his written directions to play his works on other instruments an octave higher. He would inquire where was the level to engage a four foot register, where was the the second manual, and why was the instrument built with only one basic timbre for both 8'choirs, without the presence of two somewhat contrasting colors (nasal and flute like) similar to the instruments known to him as well as the absence of the buff stop. He would comment that the distance of the octave is wider than normal, similar to the Hamburg builder Fleischer is of late reputed to use. The presence of extra keys in the treble and and bass would be as equally perplexing as the natural keys being white, instead of a black color (ebony) and the accidentals keys being black instead of having white tops of either bone or ivory. The left pedal withdraws one of the two indistinguishable registers, but doesn't produce any noticeable change to speak, the right pedal sustains the tones by lifting the dampers, special effect of little utility other than a novelty. His final query would be why instrument was mis-tuned tuned so strangely instead of being in Mean Tone temperament, which his compositions exploited the colors and associations of emotions with the keys as he originally conceived. He would also relate how he believed the harpsichord to be an expressive instrument, that this "piano" is anything but quiet, might be of utility to practice on to play the organ, but lacks the directness of speech of either the harpsichord or a clavichord (a practice instrument of some French organists) which the half vibrato of the latter instrument likewise is missing. I have read a variety of similar comments about how so and so (J S Bach, D. Scarlatti, et al) would just love and prefer the "modern piano" by 20th and now 21st century individuals taken out of context of individuals who lived and died centuries ago. Bach (who initially criticized the fortepiano, only to find approval for an instrument that has little in common with the modern piano other than a partially shared name, but never wrote music specifically with the fortepiano of Silbermann mentioned by name), Scarlatti (who wrote some music for the earliest of fortepianos and still composed music outside of their keyboard compass, for harpsichord and the collection from Venice list the work as Sonatas for Harpsichord in the 1742, and the second 1749, subsequent books of Sonatas have a different format and no designation). I do believe if through a worm hole time vortex a modern piano did appear to both Couperin, Scarlatti, and J S Bach, they might be intrigued and curious, and after having the instrument tuned (a hazardous predicament) to their preferences, they might write music specifically for the instrument, but unlike the music they wrote for the harpsichord or organ.

Really we have no way of absolutely knowing how Couperin or his contemporaries would have reacted to hearing their keyboard mucic on a modern piano. We can easily argue that they would love (or hate it), but maybe that's more a justification of personal preference than anything else. We can obviously get some information from historical sources and so on, which is valuable. I would however pose the question, why do we need to put so much effort into validating or dismantling a certain interpretation? I feel we as musicians or music enthusiasts often place unnecessary emphasis on something being "right" or "wrong", as it's an art form we're talking about, which by definition I would say makes most of that very subjective. For me, this interpretation and the piece are both something I enjoyed very much.

This is one of my favorite pieces. I first heard it played by Skip Sempe, who also uses a reasonable pace. I like the stately pace of this performance, too. Wanda Landowska also played it slower than the breakneck pace that so many others use. It would also be interesting to hear a piano version without the trills, since I thought they were used on the harpsichord because you can't vary the loudness. Or even a trumpet, violin, or woodwind version. Or Steve Martin or Bela Fleck playing it on the banjo (!) Or am I now just plain crazy?

Alexis Weissenberg would have acknowledged this- not really his style- but the interpretation of interval and timing- he would have appreciated. His mindset- but with an independent mind. The tempo, like Landowska's recording, suggests a feeling of repeating ' discovery... then awe '. Pausing to take in something new, then relishing it... and the rush of endorphin that follows. Many play this piece , few interpret it.

Where can I find the sheet music for this divine piece played so beautifully by Sylviane Deferne. I have listened to her play this at least 50 times I believe and I never grow tired of hearing this piece. It is so haunting yet so comforting. Words cannot adequately express what one feels hearing her play. The emotion she is able to express is wonderful
