This is the page of my Bach hobby.

Whatever comes into its mind is written.

　

My favorite

�@The Well-Tempered Clavier Book 1　No. 4 in C-Sharp Minor BWV849 (Especially Fugue)

PIANO：Sviatoslav・Richter

Since the melody of a left hand which flows starts among music

A debt of the submelody which comes and surpasses out of it,

and the main melody is liked.

Melody in which this left hand flows, and a near thing.

It appears also in the fugue of BWV883.（Book 2, No. 14, F sharp minor）

Both of the music is very favorite.

Although the Well-Tempered Clavierheard how many recording of that pianist,

I am this Richter board. It is heard best.

Even if it is said that it elapses [ lyricism-] even if ...

　

�AThe Well-Tempered Clavier Book 1　No. 24 in D-Minor BWV869

PIANO：Friedrich Gulda

The excellent piece of music which has the same jar as No. 4 of the point pushed.

Especially charm of the music which a fugue part's grand deployment brews

Especially Charm of the music which a fugue part's grand deployment brews

Bach's true value-- I am here and think that you may shout, !

Since the music itself is grand,

the performance of Gulda somewhat lighter than Richter is good.

�B Partita No. 6 in E-Minor BWV830

PIANO：Glen Gould

This music is most pleasing in my Gould's performance secretly.

Although there are many critics who recommend Goldberg Variation

if it is called Gould, I do not so like Goldberg Variation.

The combination of a performance of this partita of No. 6 and Gould is my liking

most a frank place.

�B Overture of the France Style in B-Minor BWV831

PIANO：Glen Gould

Grand -- a drama -- a tech overture It can be comfortably immersed

in the rhythm appropriate for the lyricism-theme and dance music.

By Gould's performance of crisp tempo,

the idea from which the theme of the whole suite

and deployment differ can be experienced, without becoming sentimental too much

�C Chaconne in D-Minor BWV1004

(　Sonata and partita for Violin-Solo No,2 The 5th movement ）

LUTE: Masaki Kikuchi

Since as for this music that is an excellent piece of music of a violin

many noted performances exist

and any performance has each charm -- A and B -- the price -- being hard .

Under these circumstances, For the first time

in [ empathy with this simple performance that met by chance ],

and the tone of lute were pleasing.

It is often heard with the Walkman etc. at the times, such as a sketch.

Only the 1st edition seems then, to sell it, without selling,

since the album containing this performance is not seen once at CD shop etc.

(At the design of a jacket having been too bad, it is ?)

�D　The Art of Fugue　ＢＷＶ１０８０

PIANO：Zoltan Kocsis

About the compositional technique-thing of this music

of becoming the compilation of Bach's counterpoint, it does not understand at all.

Although what is depended on strings, the thing to depend on organ were heard,

charm was not unsatisfactorily felt.

(In the case of the music which develops the same theme stoically like a fugue,

I do not make a tone rich recklessly, but the direction which it kept flipping

in a single tone rather feels that

the real thrill of music deployment can be experienced for it.)

In the piano performance of Kocsis,

there is a feeling of construction by which fugue deployment was stabilized.

It is performing, and the contrast which separates independently

with the intellectual place which is depended on a single musical instrument,

and which melts as a chord, and goes is felt full,

and is performing this difficult music of a clear expression attractively.

�E Matthew Passion Music BWV244

Conductor: Carl Richter The Munich Bach orchestra

Although it is rarely let pass and heard

since the whole Matthew Passion music is Omagari of about 3 hours "

of the overture of chorus-- coming -- hanging down -- my daughters -- it is not known

how many times "has already been heard

The dreadfulness drawn in the world of the image whose music of this has those

who hear it at a stretch is overwhelmed whenever it may hear it.

If it goes to a concert, the children of lovely boys' soprano will appear

and will tell the clear singing voice.

Liking of a performance is good for the way with dignity like Richter

and intensity being drawn into the tragic world.

Although Richter is recording the "Matthew Passion " twice

-- chiefly -- the first 1959 board Reputation is said and needed.

To be sure, both are heard, and if compared,

contrast is dramatic [ the way of a 59 year board ] at a strong performance.

I feel that depth which meditates to a slight degree is searched for a 80-year board. ）

�F　 Cantata No. 150 BWV150

Conductor: Masaaki Suzuki 　Bach Collegium Japan

Cantata of very delicate and beautiful deployment.

Charm which has announced bold and warm deployment is felt

limiting the width of amplitude.

The most favorite place is a place of the chaconne

in which the vocal music of a finale and a violin are involved.

Dramatically, also now, a feeling increases in miraculously quiet climax.

It was a program of "the baroque of the morning ”of NHK-FM

that I listened to this music for the first time.

Even now, it is worrying to have explained

"There is Bach's work or a person who suspects" then.

　

�G Prelude and Fugue in E-Flat Major "St. Anne"

BWV552（ The Schonberg Arrangement Version ）

Conductor: Esa-Pekka-Salonen 　Los Angeles philharmonic

The feature of Bach's music is "image construction by contrapuntal deployment structure."

I think that it is in the place which should be said but.

So, it is seldom influenced by the tone of a musical instrument,

but many arrangements by the composer and player

in future generations are performed in it.

Although this music is composed for organ,

if the performance in the direction of a prelude is listened to,

the way of "Schonberg's orchestral music arrangement version" will think

that the fun of the composition of music and a spread of a tone are felt by it.

However, the portion of a fugue is the same reason as "The art of a fugue",

and likes the single musical instrument (organ).

�H　Erbarme dich mein Gott　BWV２４４　　arr.Yuji Takahashi

PIANO：Yuji Takahashi

This excellent piece of music in Matthew Passion music part II was impressively

used on the movie "sacrifice" of A Tarucofuski supervisor.

Since the original melody is beautiful music of a debt of a tone called

alto and a violin solo,

I think that the arrangement to the piano version will be difficult.

As long as this performance is listened to,

it is thought that it cannot be over the original melody.

It is to still have thought that it would add to this "favorite"

because of the completeness of this whole album. After this music,

the PUZONI arrangement version in the excellent toccata of the excellent

"chaconne" organ of a violin and a FUGANI minor key introduced previously continues.

If these three music is listened to right through,

there is no superfluous ornament of Yuji Takahashi,

and the respect for music construction of Bach and positive approval are felt,

and it is full of the charm which it keeps hearing comfortably.
