Music reviews of Bach: Das Wohltemperierte Klavier

Music Review: contemporary bach
Rating: 5 Stars

i'm also a strong partisan for this recording. the general presentation is one of high technical control, excellent sound and a fine instrument, though the sound is a bit hard in the high, loud notes.

the three features of fellner's interpretation are a continuous and clear separation or layering of contrapuntal texture, a beautiful rapport between tempo, dynamics and articulation, and a subdued romanticism of interpretation. the voices all sing as independent lines and melodies are brought out of arpeggiated or complex textures (as in the C prelude); the interpretations all have a wonderfully organic conception, without any displays of technique for its own sake; the contrasts in mood are subtle but distinctive, and there is a lovely use of long, carefully prepared melodic narratives (as in the E flat or f sets). yes, pedal is used to provide sustained voices, but the interpretations are hardly soft and are never blurred or murky. pellucid, flowing, eventful, sensitive, spontaneous, unaffected, absorbing, shapely, subtle, unhurried, poised, heartfelt -- all come to mind to describe these performances. perhaps the only mannerism is a tendency to finish every fugue with a ritardando.

i suggest that there are three ways to hear bach performed: for the musical content, for the instrumental character or a "historically correct" interpretation, or for the player ("wow, how does he do that"?). fellner is representative of the first camp, which includes richter, brendel, schiff, perahia, kempff and pollini. most harpsichord performances (leonhardt, pinnock, gilbert) cater to the second. performances by feltsman, lipschitz, tureck, zimerman, anderszewski, nikolayeva and of course the compulsively moaning maestro gould stand for the third. this last camp seem to find fellner bland or faceless; but after listening to any of the players i've listed as his peers, you may find performances in the third group mannered, willful and histrionic. the issue isn't so much the quality of the performance as the temperament of the listener.
