  I listen to Bach a good part of my time. (at 97 there isn&apos;t much else for me to do)<br>The partitas are an eternal delight.<br>I love &nbsp;Mr. Schiff&apos;s &quot;touch.&quot; <br>My father was a pianist, I once asked him to referee a high school dispute between my band and orchestra buddies.<br>They disputed the primacy of Beethoven or Tchaikovsky. <br>He said:<br>&quot;You kids can argue all you want; but BACH IS THE DADDY OF ALL MUSICIANS.&quot; <br>In later years I met one of his pupils in a restaurant and it seems he was more formal with him than with me.<br>&quot;I remember professor Valderrama telling me Bach was the &quot;Holy Spirit of Music.&quot; (might sound even a bit bombastic, but that was my intro to Spirituality even though I turned out an atheist like him)<br>One certainly doesn&apos;t need a church or a dogma to feel &quot;Spirituality&quot; (or transcendence) when we have Bach.<br>Real tears course down my cheeks whenever I hear Bach mourning the loss of His Savior.<br>Makes me feel &quot;Christianer&quot; than my religious relatives.

  I think that the greatest thing that a pianist can do is to convey the impression that a piece is being shaped and created at the moment of performance. You do that Mr. Schiff!

  It is hard to believe that there is a human being behind this sublime interpretation. One would tend to think of it as something of a divine nature. Bravo maestro.

  How could Bach write so many pieces of music that all sound the same yet are so different! Amazing…..

  I love his interpretation. Clear , well structured, balanced but warm and sensitive, at the same time. absorbs my attention throughout the play. I feel as if I were hearing a good old story.
