Music reviews of J.S Bach: The Well-Tempered Clavier

Music Review: Bringing Bach back to Earth
Rating: 5 Stars

After recording almost the whole canon of classical and romantic music, Vladimir Ashkenazy finally turns his gaze to Bach; it was worth the wait. Naturally one is inclined to compare it to the great versions of other pianists such as those of Gould, Richter, Tureck, etc... and allthough I am quite familiar with the first two and some incidental listening of others, I am now inclined to say that this version stands completely on itself.

Ashkenazy approaches the music with an ease and elegance that is seldomly heared. Bach's transcendent compendium of the "klavier" is a world of such depth and infinite musical possibility one can easily get lost in it's vastness. Yet, "the language of the universe" has never known a more humane and ardent advocate, unveiling it's multitude of mysteries in the light of contemporary life...

When listening to Ashkenazy's WTC, progressing through the keys, as Bach presupposes and elaborates, I feel rejuvenated almost instantly - sensing a spirit of exuberance and vitality, where other recordings seem dogmatic
- feeling warmth and optimism where others despite of their obvious virtuosity and stylistic correctness seem cold and aloof.

Vladimir Ashkenazy has gone beyond just the notes, creating an atmosphere that is flowing and natural... sounding almost as if both Books were played from beginning to end on a sunny afternoon...without rehearsals, editing or over-analyzing the music. And thus a world originates, a kaleidoscope of images, so rich in depth of colours and inherent understanding of the human experience - the palet and mind creating them are indeed those of a Great Artist.
