Saw Pierre-Laurant Aimard last night

At 92nd st Y with Bootsy. Smallish venue.

Program was WTC Book 2 in its entirety.

[89th]

What kind of forum do you think this is, talking about piano?

[Klaus]

How was it?

[jon-nyc]

Very good. I’m not as familiar with book II, it’s so much more expansive and difficult-sounding than book I. He used quite a bit of pedal.

[Klaus]

I know you are not necessarily the biggest Bach fan, and neither am I.

I find some of the fugues particularly annoying after a while.

But you enjoyed it, obviously.
