Sviatoslav Richter, Bach - French Ouverture BWV 831 Toccata BWV 912 Sonata BWV 966 Italian Concerto BWV 971
Review by Christian Bogeberg
Sviatoslav Richter's performance of Bach's French Ouverture BWV 831 Toccata BWV 912 Sonata BWV 966 Italian Concerto BWV 971 is a stunning display of technical mastery and musical sensitivity. The album features some of Bach's most beloved works, performed with the precision and emotional depth that Richter is known for.
The French Ouverture is a grand, majestic work that sets the tone for the album. Richter's interpretation is powerful and bold, yet he also brings out the subtleties of the piece with his sensitive touch. The Toccata is a virtuosic display of keyboard technique, and Richter handles it with ease and finesse.
The Sonata is a more introspective work, and Richter's performance is contemplative and nuanced. He brings out the intricate counterpoint and delicate phrasing of the piece with great skill. The Italian Concerto is a joyful, lively work, and Richter's performance is full of energy and enthusiasm.
