rosalyn tureck - wow !

[neil@thump.org (Neil)]

Anyone heard the partitas yet ? I have and they are really outstanding. She's a
very very wonderful Bach player with so much imaginiation, technical equipment
and the right feel for gravity of these masterworks.

What's doubly fascinating is to hear so much of GG's interpretations. I'm sure
he must have known them very well before he set down his at least of 1-4 (5/6
are pre-Tureck). I have a strong feeling they, if you'll pardon the phrase,
cross pollenated if each other's feelings on the music.

I do recommend them though. perhaps on balance GG's are a little more exciting
and daring, but Tureck has the spiritual side wrapped up and when she comes to
the 6th she's just as moving as GG I think. What a splendid day I had listening
yesterday !

Cheers

Neil

Ps any other tureck recommendations.
