Rameau's music is beautiful beyond any human words...

What magnificent playing. I particularly admired the majesty and surprising tempo at the end of the gavotte and doubles. How he brought this magnificent passacaglia (essentially) home for a splendid and rousing finale. M. Haas is a great maestro, and the authority of his interpretation will be a source of delight for years to come, I am sure.

I´ve heard incredible interpretations on the Piano....but this interpretation on the hapsichord is superb, so beautiful you just don´t get tired of hearing again and again and again...

All areas as good as it gets - a special tip of the cap to the recording engineers as the harpsichord is not an easy instrument to record well. Wanda Landowska was particular about which carpets rolled up, which curtains pulled and specific furniture placement and above all, where will the microphone go? In 1952!

29:24 - Rameau was visionary. The last two "Doubles" (or Variations) of the Gavotte sounds like music from the 1980s!

Such great music, praise Rameau

I'm reading I. Berlin's 'Roots of Romanticism' and hearing Rameau in that context (17th c. Germany v France, Rameau v Bach, worldly music v pious music) is fascinating.

I always think that Rameau is akin to Boucher. Diderot said that Boucher was the greatest living painter but so dishonest. It was the entitlement to sensual delight, to color and taste and texture without moral purpose that offended...and Rameau in his music is as voluptuous and indulgent. I call it a generosity. Keep your high flown Greuze moralities...give me Venus ini pearls!

he plays it with a lot of feeling, it's really good.

Barbastre made the transcriptions for harpsichord of his operas, but that's all… (Sorry for my awful english.)

The Courante is too fast. Part of the reason there are so many ornaments is because the Courante is a slow and stately dance, and the notes can be sustained with them. This tempo isn't nearly as extreme as you can get with other modern performances, but the ornaments still sound cluttered.

Insensé.. l’ornementation est partie intégrante de la musique pour claviers de cette époque là, et la liberté en est laissée à chaque interprète. Je vous en prie, renseignez-vous sur les pratiques d’interprétation fort intéressantes de la musique baroque.

Ok, modern ears here so I cannot listen to more than 3 movements of this wonderful suite. The harpsichord, especially when it goes very fast on “Les Trois Mains”, is almost unbearable to my ears. But this is just me, of course. The other “issue” I have with this interpretation is that there are many embellishments improvised into a score which already has plenty, imo, of them. So why “tax” the listener’s ears with constant ornamentations? Makes little sense to me not only as a performer but a listener. However, the playing is flawless and expert so that I cannot argue with.

@phebus2005

5 жыл бұрын

Carl Bowlby ... About those "embellishments", Huguette Dreyfus, whom I studied with, would tell you to carefully read introductions and treatises, which we extensively did at her class. Early French music was formerly, so Couperin himself says, meant not to be played as it's written. Great freedom of expression is expected from the performer playing Rameau who didn't always filled in what could be imagined by his player. That's the idea of live music : do not play it twice the same way. A harpsichordist, and an organist, must know what to do with what's not specified. In a way Chopin continued the tradition, but then his text had become unbearably impossible to adapt to the spur of the moment.

@CarlBowlby

5 жыл бұрын

thierry guffroy hello, and thank you for not “shouting me down” if you know what I mean. Of course I understand the concept of embellishments and do so myself on the organ and piano, but I guess my exception to this interpretation was that they were too much to my ears. Simply a subjective response. I also love Couperin and Rameau’s clavecin music as they wrote it. But if historically they expected more ornamentation than what was written then that’s an issue concerning my own tastes. However, all that said, the music played is beautifully rendered. And yes, yes I have read countless introductions and early books on ornamentation which was never truly agreed upon by all those considered, so there was no one set standard of executing trills, mordents, etc. It’s new to me when you say that Chopin expected embellishments in his music. Is this true?

Thank you for acknowledging that. Here may not be the ideal place to debate and discuss. I'd be awfully sorry to realize that people would think of me as not interested in everyone's remarks. I am no specialist of Chopin. But the way his music is conceived seems to lead to much more liberty than it looks, perhaps with other means. Then again, the comparison only came from pianists. Let's stick to one style and one instrument for now. Nice talking to you ! (And forgive my English. Hard to be clear when you think in a language and write in another one !)

Carl Bowlby ... If of any interest, speaking of embellishments, let me give you two examples : We know that Bach published very little of his complete organ work. Many copies were made by pupils, family and friends, which says a lot on the popularity (or not) of a piece. Take the "Pièce d'orgue" in G Major. The Bach Gesellschaft Edition (I hardly know of a better one) published what seems to be a fair copy in which the counterpoint is left rather "clean". The Neue Bach Ausgabe though later reveled and released a copy with an ornament on each note !!! See ! In his organ chorales, Bach sometimes produced two versions of the exact same one (which he called "Alio modo", another way to play the same thing). It occurs in the Orgelbüchlein and in the Leipzig collection ... I like to suppose that the idioms Chopin used were just examples, his technique being new, as did Haendel, Bach and ... Rameau ... What do you think ?
