This Friday, more fundraising. But well get things rolling with a substantial music segment, featuring a 1950 performance of Bachs Concerto for 4 keyboards in a minor, BWV 1065, after Vivaldis b minor Concerto for 4 violins, RV 580 (op.3 no.10). Pianists: Rosalyn Tureck,William Kapell, Eugene List, and Joseph Battista. , This performance, which sprang up like a mushroom on YouTube recently, and has been entertaining our little informal online keyboard klub, was possibly issued on an Oblivion LP in the 1960s. Indeed, LP record clicks are audible before the NBC announcer speaks. Well compare BWV1065 with RV580, and peel back the surface of BWV1065 a bit to see how Bachs genius takes it to the next level, focusing on one particularly beautiful passage (get ready for some bad singing). This is one of the great Baroque concerto performances, of a remarkable piece of music... a piece so nice it was written twice.
