Wow. I thought I was a heretic for getting into the whole Bach-on-a-piano
thing. I can't say I really enjoyed that interpretation, but at the same time
I don't see the whole point of strict interpretations. I was reading about
Sviatoslov Richter the other day. Among other things, he insisted on putting
an apology with a CD of the Italian Concerto for a single note he had missed
unnoticed for forty years. I mean those composers were pretty incredible, but
it seems wrong to elevate their works to that of unerring perfection. If you
have something to add, then why not?
That said, it is possible to go too far:
