Youtube comments ...
Kioooi: This is how Chopin played bach ;) XD hahah
just fucking with you
Kioooi: Wow you give the piece a whole new feeling!
leopoldraphael: J.S.Bach war kein Romantiker!!! :-))
viborrr: The arhitecture of music stays the same,
regardless of the tempi, chosen instruments
etc... You can stick historic performance in
your historic ass! :) GO cubus! In my opinion,
romanticism and retardation of tempo often
brings out beauty present in Bach's music that
otherwise remains hidden, ran over, just like
by a speeding truck. His melodies are so so rich
they need slowing down, in order to be fully
percepted
pozsoz: it's easier to play when you're playing it
wrong. not that bach requires to be played by
robots, but you can still play it in the
right tempo and give it your own
interpretation
MIXOLYDIAN123: Anthony. This comment is unhelpful at best. I
both know and understand this music & I LOVE the
style of this performance. Maybe you meant to
say "...people searching for this song who know
and understand it in its original form would
notice this isn't an authentic historical
performance". But that's so obvious is doesn't
need saying. Cubus knows HOW he's playing so why
comment? Why should Cubus spend money on CD's
only to recreat a performance that the world has
heard many times before?
ChristianSojourner: I rather like it played this way - a bit
slower. I like this tempo more than the faster.
AndreaZ64: I'm a Bach devotee myself and indeed this
obviously is historically incorrect, but
nevertheless it is interesting to listen to this
anachronistic interpretation. And as always
cubusdk plays very good.
I like it. 5 stars.
kaman1002: I think you play chopin's better than bach's
itsanthonyhere: Yea we can give him credit but he wouldn't be
able to perform this anywhere. You can't play
Classical Era music in the form of Baroque
style, and vise versa, just because it's a
personal choice. You'd be disregarding the
entire era of music...
sexorcista: u might b right, but u re forgetting that music
is a personal experience, so i believe he is
plauin it in a way he enjoys it the most. he is
not tryin to b like anyone and we can give him
credit for that, can t we?
sorry bout my bad english, greetings from
Mexico.
xbox2xbox: toooooooooooooo slow man！！
itsanthonyhere: Glenn Gould..his interpretation of this is what
it's supposed to be. Also, go on itunes and type
in this song..buy all the versions. You're
playing it romantically when it is Baroque. I
can understand if you enjoy it ands that's cool!
But, people who knows and understand this song
and are searching for this song wouldn't
enjoy this style.
PAGATY: doe you have an example?
itsanthonyhere: C'mon man. You're really good but you have to
remember this is BACH...not Chopin. They were
both angry men. Give them that at least.
Invisionary: Very nice. I like the tempo you chose.
ajoylessparade: Im from america but im mostly danish Holm is
family name.
And I love this shit.
klaverfar: En elektriker, der spiller Bach -- nu står
verden altså ikke længere!
Phone your electrician and he'll come and
play some Bach for you!! A typical Danish
phenomena - an example of our high standard of
culture and education
