To end for now with Umberto Boccioni’s birthday posting, here is one more of my very favourites by him : the Portrait of Ferruccio Busoni, Italian composer, pianist and conductor, best known for transcriptions of Bach’s music to piano. And, since it is Emil Gilels birthday as well today - here is his rendition of these transcriptions to accompany the painting :-) Not the best video but, well, it was 1969 after all, when this was filmed ;)
Gilels - Bach-Busoni - Prelude & Fugue in D major, BWV 532 - Prelude (1/2)
Gilels - Bach-Busoni - Prelude & Fugue in D major, BWV 532 - Fugue (2/2)
