Bach, Gould and Menuhim...no words can pay justice to their legacy...
After Glenn's death, Yehudi Menuhin wrote of Glenn " . . . his was an ephemeral presence and only the recorded echoes of his thoughts and passions remain forever to enlighten and inspire us." I am so glad they made this recording.
This is so beautiful ! I am overjoyed to be in Heaven and to listen to these two great masters of their arts playing J.S. Bach. Many Thanks to Glenn Gould and Yehudi Menuhin for this magic moment.
Gould is something out of Central casting! The eccentric long-hair with all the relevant quirks. The mumbling, the facial tics and that stupid, beat up chair. Lol! What a character! The gloves, scrambled eggs, overcoats in July! What a wonderful KOOK! Oh, by the way, one of the greatest musicians the world has ever seen! My absolute hero and idol!
agree completely!
Yes! He was all that and more. But you have to wonder -- with that incessant humming, what if his parents had bought him a a kazoo instead of a piano? Sure, we gained some wonderful piano performances, but did the world lose the first titanic kazoo virtuoso in the bargain?
@@edwilliams9914 Truly, this shifts my perspective on what music could have been. Though please consider this: what if they'd got him a kazoo *in addition* to a piano? Bach would never have been the same!
@@erikpost1381 HAHA! Can you imagine him on stage at the piano (on his irreplaceable fragment of a chair) sitting in stillness, gathering the power he will soon unleash with his fingers poised above the keys... but ALSO with one of those little wire contraptions around his neck that Bob Dylan used to play the harmonica except fixed up with a kazoo!?!?! It would have been priceless if he had done that for a prank at one of his big concerts! His audience would have ROARED with laughter -- and loved him even more (he was actually quite a mischievously funny guy!) Someone should do a deep-fake video of this immediately!
@@edwilliams9914I will carry that image with me for a long time to come. XD
Never a day without Bach.
Божественная красота Менухин а завораживает!
Not to be irreverent, but can you imagine how much fun this was for them? How lucky are we to be able to view this! Edit for spelling.
The collaboration of two of the finest musicians that ever lived.
Please don't take this the wrong way, but I would have said, the collaboration of three of the finest musicians that ever lived.
@@JohnMcPhersonStrutt what do you mean is one of them schizophrenic
Johann S. Bach + Glenn Gould + Yehudi Menuhin = 3 of the finest musicians.........
К ним ещё добавьте Ойстраха!
@@JohnMcPhersonStrutt The One in the Very Best. He was a gem of mankind
Спасибо создателям канала за возможность слушать Баха в исполнении великих музыкантов. Прослушала сразу несколько раз взахлёб!
My soul is elevated listening to this concert
@@LuluBodhi Sie irren. Komplett.
What a stroke of genius! The music composed by Bach, and performed by Gould and Menuhin, it doesn't get much better than this.
Yes Sir
Bach and Gould and Menuhin.a dream come true!it's my oblivion of restlessness
The more i listen the more i think within myself:sublime...
Yes, It does. Look for the Chaconne by Isaac Stern.
@Graeme Brodie You are fed up with idiots. How pitty...
marvelous, brilliant genius both Gleen Gould and Menuhin!!! I can listen thousands of times!
ГЕНИЙ НАПИСАЛ МУЗЫКУ. ДВА ВЕЛИКИХ МУЗЫКАНТА ИСПОЛНИЛИ, а мы слушаем и впитываем в себя Энергию ВЕЛИКИХ МАСТЕРОВ.💥👍💥
One of the GREATEST moments in 20th century. Very close to my birthday. Nice!
Brought tears to my eyes!!! Fantastic!
Three Genius Bach Gould and Menuhin
STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL! JUST PERFECT! TWO GREAT PERSONALITIES MATCH WITH THE BEAUTY OF BACH!
I enjoyed that they played facing one another rather than (when an audience is present) in typical concert formation. It makes for a more direct musical conversation.
Tres inmortales: Bach, Menuhin, Gould. No hace falta más para un disfrute pleno
Definitely
You miss many musical universes😔
Two Great Musicians and the Divine Bach
A symbiotic performance. Refined and elegant!
Beautiful performance of this piece by my favorite musician,J.S. Bach!
Two of my favourite musicians plays Bach ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Просто прекрасно а скрипка просто солирует . Спасибо
Wow, what a treat! I also saw Menuhim a long time ago, he was so generous he kept playing each encore this was mid 80s. R. I. P. both of them. ❤❤❤💐💐💐🙏🙏🙏
I love all the music of Bach, it is the best and this Sonata blows my mind...
Exceptional. Stuns me every time.
Obviously, Glenn Gould's perfect dedication to the Johann Sebastian Bach's spirit! Thanks so much for sharing!
Love Menuhin’s inscrutable face-the music says it all
Very nice, a dream of harmony and peace 🌺🎶...Bach
Se si ascoltasse più musica come questa il mondo andrebbe meglio...
Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli diceva che la Musica deve essere per tutti.....ma solo per chi se la meriti!
So beautiful and bright
Спасибо , волшебная музыка, чудесное исполнение...
Beautiful. What a start of the day.
This kind of music is not produced, is a revelation from God.
It is a revelation from nature. God is an unnecessary assumption, my friend. I know it is tempting to think that something so sublime can't just come from nature, but it does. Evolution has done amazing things, this is one of them.
Hate to break this to you, but “God” has nothing to do with it.
Потрясающе,гениально,божественно!.!!
Já perdi a conta de quantas vezes eu voltei aqui para assistir estes dois maravilhosos virtuosos tocando Bach. Todos no reino dos imortais
Glen and Yeudi are two pure geniuses.
Thanks for sharing, such a treasure!
Both, such powerful forces. It's an almost perilous dynamic!
Me encanta esta obra sin igual, la escucho todos los días sin falta y solo logra cautivar mi mente más y más...
INMORTALIDAD: autor, obra y músicos. De colección! Para volver a ello una y otra vez
Amazing!💗
I am puzzled by some of the comments below. I am a classical pianist, BM, MM in piano performance, studied with great teachers, and this channel is FABULOUS. I am playing Bach sonata in Emajor BWV 1035 for flute and piano (klavier). When I was learning it I listened a lot to Gould's performances of Bach such as this one, to help me find the right touch on the piano! Yes Menuhin has a more "old fashioned" approach to this music than one would hear now due to all the study over the past many decades now of the urtext editions, treatises, performances on original instruments, etc. But I find this performance lovely, and a wonderful duo!! Thank you for this Glenn Gould channel--when this was broadcast on the CBC I was 6 years old in Washington DC, heard lots of Bach as my dad was a composer, choir director, and music librarian, but we did not own a TV! (until a bit later....)
By the way, they both play totally from MEMORY!
What are urtext editions?
@@crimsonlyyours original
Менухин красив невероятно,любуюсь и наслаждаюсь его виртуозной игрой,а Гулд давно украл мое сердце,Россия.
Любовь и восторг!!!
Exzentrische Klavier-Legende trifft auf introviertes Geigengenie. Großartig!. Vielen Dank auch fürs Hochladen! Ich hatte bisher gelaubt, alle relevanten Bach-Aufnahmen von Mister Gould zu kennen. Dies war ein Irrtum, diese Aufnahme kannte ich nicht!
Beautiful👌
Que dire ? La perfection. Un sentiment de bonheur.
I have always loved Glenn's choice of performance chair ;)
Magnifique pianiste et violoniste merci à dieu d avoir créé de tels etres
Outstanding!
so sweet
Momento de belleza eterna
Merveilleux
이 귀한 음악 영상 올려주신분께 거듭 감사 !!
el sonido de Menuhin no tiene nombre, sencillamente monumental!
Oh my God, 1st movement is the music of Cosmos😍😍😍music of soul, not from this world 😍😍😍
wow!
Perfect combo
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 My favorite pianist(Glenn) and composer (Bach)
Are you Iranian?

Magnificent ❤amazing composition and amazing performers ❤
Memorabile esecuzione.
Thanks for shared!!!! It's great
I'll never understand the sad compulsion some people have to find genuinely compelling performances and leave comments like "This is an inept and weak performance," "He's not in the same class as X," "If you want to hear what this music is supposed to sound like, look up Y," or "Can't hold a candle to the immortal Z." 😐
Партия фортепиано исполнена очень очаровательно! Лучше чем партия скрипки.
Una de las Sonatas más bellas ❤❤❤
Wonderful
Браво
I’m always amused at people who comment that a great musician like Menuhin plays “badly” or doesn’t understand the music, or .... It’s one thing to say you didn’t enjoy the performance, or understand it, but to raise oneself to a level above the musician is just a comment on one’s own smallness. Go ahead and correct the performer if you are a better musician by any other standards than your own misguided hubris. Otherwise, keep your humor to yourself.
When William Kappel played in Australia n 1953 he received bad reviews and vowed never to come back. That was the flight in which he was killed. I wonder what he could have done wrong to displease the critics?
Menuhin surely understood the music, however this performance had some blemishes on intonation and bow control unfortunately, especially in 2nd Mvt., and the interpretation was maybe a bit too romantic-concerto-like for some people. Though he was way better than a lot of violinists anyway:) , and I am confident to tell this sonata is more demanding for the violin than the keyboard
I didn't enjoy the performance. hope you are happy.
@@alwt1991 haha no it is more difficult for the piano in the fast movements... The piano plays two voices which are very difficult to play musically (articulation, phrasing) without any room for breathing and it does not come easily under the hand. You must add to that the fact that the pianist must have third voice (the violin) in mind...
A little research on baroque performance practice shows that Menuhin does not follow any musical rules that were applied by then. It does not mean that Menuhin is wrong or that his performance is bad. But I personally find good performances where baroque rules are applied much more musical than his performance.
I prefer the Gould with Jaime Laredo performance but it's always wonderful to hear him. And this is beautiful in its way.
Genial, bravísimo, muchas gracias, perfecta interpretación de Gran Maestrió, Johann Sebastian Bach!
Amazing 🥰😍💗
WoW❤
BELLISSIMO
el genio de bach fue fuente de inspiración estoy segurisimo que muchos de estos compases fueron usados como fuente de las mas famosas melodias. se adivinan melodías de canciones del este europeo, de música gitana , de canciones de amor de occidente de musica de peliculas, etc . genial es tambien la seleccion que cada °plagiario° hizo gracias a BACH
If I close my eyes I hear more of what's happening in the music, which is a great deal.
Belleza
The first movement sound pretty romantic to me
Gould,Menhuin e la musica di Bach si diffonde eterna bellezza della vita e dell'universo.
Cheers and Vivat for The Masters !
Magnifico
Meraviglioso...
Allegro is my favorite
Durduk yere gözlerim yaşlandı.
感動を有難う♪
Great.......
Mina
Kai and sparrow. I listen to this for you. I listen because if God gave us one gift it was this.
Beautiful...remind the erbarme mein gott...passion mathieu 💗🔥
The pieces are very similar and both absolute masterpieces.
First movement violin melody is strongly reminding me of the violin solo in Young Frankenstein...I suppose one should beg, borrow, or steal from the best.
OMG GUYS I FOUND A TREASURE!!!!1
Maravilha
🙏❤️
❤❤❤
As a Collector and Admirer of the late Yehudi Menuhin,is there any chance of getting a copy of this Recording on Vinyl? If yes,what label is it on as its so Beautiful and I've been Collecting Yehudi Menuhin's Records for over forty years both on Pre War 78rpm and LP Vinyl and I haven't got a Video Player
when in the very beginning gould interrupts menuhin, as soon as he cuts him off he drops his voice to match menuhin's pitch, so it doesn't feel interrupted. it took me a couple listens to understand the interaction
Gould is an expert at Bach and to compare the violin playing of Menuhin to Gould's piano playin is like comparing apples and oranges. Nonetheless they are both sweet in their own unique way.
This is a beautiful performance of course. I do wish we could have heard a Bach duet with Gould and Hahn. Then again, that would probably be the musical equivalent of drinking from the fire hose.
@@dmwalker24 Or Gould and Perlman...
Bravo Yegudi,Bravo,Maestro !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The beginning sounds so much like a variation of the musical offering
素晴らしい 私の 好きな曲です。
I hear you, masters.🙏
Yes, yes , ahammm , yes ...
グールドの歌声が！きこえます。
Can someone give me a link to the full dialogue between menuhin and gould? Please? 🙏
