Review:
Very good Bach playing
I was very pleasantly surprised by how good this disc
is. I confess that I approached it with
a little scepticism because I have heard quite a few pianists trying to produce
an "individual" interpretation of Bach with rather unhappy results,
but Yulianna Avdeeva plainly "gets" Bach and this is a quality
recording.
The three works here are reasonably varied but Bach's
dancing pulse runs through them all.
Avdeeva catches it very well so each movement moves as it should and she
has the musical intelligence to phrase and project so that of the intellectual
weight and emotion comes through too.
Yulianna Avdeeva may not have quite the dancing elegance of
Angela Hewitt or Murray Perahia's wonderful grace, but I am still very impressed
with this disc and I look forward to her recording more Bach. Warmly recommended.
