Glad I found this interpretation. It's the best one. ❤

I thought I heard them all. Those dozens of beautiful interpretations of Bach’s famous “Air”. And then I stumble over this amazingly precious piece of Gulda! What a complement!

The most beautiful Air on the G string I have ever heard…

How many times I've listened to this performance?! God knows! And the phrase coming in my head about Gulda (without even knowing him or having seen him in person) is this: "What a beautiful man!" . The irony here is he's joking a bit with the other pianists while playing, and through the humour of his joke, STILL, comes out such a beautiful, natural, balanced performance for which he needs very little help from his body language or facial expression while playing. This is the most beautiful performance of the Air I've heard to this date on the piano. R.I.P Gulda.

Thanks for saying what i ran out of words for

And it exists people who don't like music...This music is perfection on earth as majestic as the sound of the ocean.

Besser geht nicht. Hätte Bach ein Hammerklavier gehabt, hätte er es vermutlich genau so gespielt. In großer Ehrfurcht lieber Friedrich Gulda, unvergessen.

Er hat das Stück verstanden. Langsam, aber mit Zusammenhalt. Er war einer der Besten.

"langsam" ist auch wichtig , damit es seine "wirkung" entfalten kann ... viele jüngere heutzutage verstehen das halt nicht mehr oder haben das gefühl dafür schlichtweg verloren ... wundern tät's mich nicht !

You honor Bach in your playing. Thank you❤

Now. These three fantastic talents are playing together on the heavens. Yes. I truly believe in the afterlife.

Oh my god, this is the perfection rip Gulda

As I say somewhere else here, this is my favorite interpretation on KZread besides Stokowski orchestration. And I must actually rank this higher because he is alone at the piano, making it sound quite improvisational, which is very much in tune with baroque style, and the feeling, the ornamentations, almost as if here were playing a stringed instrument sometimes; the bringing out of unexpected inner voices, some of which might be improvised....... Just beautiful. I don't care whether it's faithful to the baroque style or not. Many have their own interpretations, including Siloti and Busoni of Bach.

Er ist ein wahrer Künstler! Mit Herz und Seele beherrscht Friedrich Gulda das Instrument!

This is heaven

OUTSTANDING performance.

Gulda !! tan simple, tan complejo, siempre asombroso.

Cómo se hace suya la pieza... Íntima pero sobria, sin caer en ningún tipo de apasionamiento gratuito. Maravilla.

goosebumps Best performance ever I heard

einfach wundervoll

Tellement émouvant. Merci. Cordialement. Olivier F

Beautiful 🎶

Merci mon Dieu... Merci Gulda.❤

How thrilling!

Kissing the sky.

Beautiful!

einfach wunderschön

Für Augenblicke wie diese Darbietung der berühmten Air aus der dritten Orchestersuite des Fünften Evangelisten sind Worte "Schönheit" und "Tiefe" geschaffen worden.

Perfeito em cada detalhe

J S Bach sounds so lovely on the piano. I'm currently learning the Prelude in B flat minor, BWV 867, and would also love to learn this Air.

A virtuoso he is.RIP

Celestiale....l anima tocca il cielo❤️ Grazie🙏

2:37 "oh yeah, that's the stuff"

The best version on the world

Best arrangement of the Air. Better than Martucci’s (imperial) and Siloti’s (blah), better because it is peaceful, measured, without an excess of ornaments. Magical. Does anyone know if there is a transcription of it anywhere to be purchased or downloaded ? Many thanks !!!

Relax. It's obviously a casual and informal environment where he's a guest on a show or something. And it actually kind of goes with the very improvisational style he shows. Absolutely beautiful, the best interpretation I've heard on KZread besides Stokowski's orchestration.
