Song detention, lyrical, relish

Ship succeed in this new recording of the Well-Tempered Clavier a wonderfully singable, lyrical and organic realization of this work. Sound and sound are excellent - pleasant course, space and presence. Ship succeeds in the 24 Preludes and Fugues repeatedly to elicit from both parts of new colors (in the booklet with observations on the color spectrum of the WTK in some detail), which this recording so eminently catchy (we may say: entertaining) and is entertaining. The in some interpreters sometimes so rigid and in the long run a bit tiring joints breathe here great vitality and joy of discovery. From the smallest motivic cells, the music develops freely and organically - but without mannerisms. The highly sensitive touch culture ship revives the melodic progressions often by small nuances and shades. Incidentally waived ship largely on the (right) pedal, which he justified in detail the history of music in the booklet. Me have interested such historical and academic credentials Korrektheiten never particularly. Me only interested the audible result, and that is almost always convincing in this case. Almost - because the C Major Prelude from Part II, which has always been one of my favorite pieces by his affirmative gesture and its cascading melodies, even at Gould has a rather large, decaying sound - this magnificent prelude loses ship by Non -Legato game and the lyrical tone but slightly in size and splendor, it unfolds to little force. Even the nameless melancholy in B flat minor Prelude from Part I (Track 19) falls in my opinion, from a little dry and harmless-conventional. Enough gemäkelt - this recording will find their place and is recommended strongly!
