Having been prepared the entry by that invitation to indulge in fancies contained in the Toccata, the Aria rose as a prodigy of soft cantabile attitude tended to find its "da capo" ...

His lecture of Concerts is scrupulous in evading every expressive derivation that seems improper by a stylistic point of view, romantic, but able to outline a world of fascinating sound. His touch is dry, not skinny: the well-used colour, often with delight pearly or pastel shades (the use of pedals is almost absent); his phrasing is clear, of remarkable significance for the left hand and crystal clear precision. Tempos and rhythm are lively, not without the necessary hesitations to define the poetic elegance of melody in slow movements. ...

Bacchetti firmó una interpretación deslumbrante, por brillante y por exacta, dejando en el aire su ya habitual incógnita de su decisión por lo que al aria se refiere, por completo carente de los trinos y los grupetos que parecen pedir su condición a ultranza barroca y que la mayoría de los intérpretes ejecutan.

It does not take many word to introduce to MUSICA readers the Genoese pianist Andrea Bacchetti, with whom I had a long conversation at the start of February. Enfant prodige and pupil of Luciano Berio, one of the most exciting Bach interpreters of his generation, Bacchetti is a shy man, strict with himself in a very singular way. But in his words, in his so rapid and captivating talk, a total dedication to music and a sharp awareness of the major actual problem of classical music - communicating with the audience - shine through. Also for this awareness Bacchetti chose to participate in many episodes went on the air between autumn 2010 and spring 2011 of the multi-coloured TV circus of «Chiambretti Night Show»: in that atmosphere, smartly dressed in his concert suit, Andrea interacted with other guests of Piero Chiambretti in a way that was now surreal for some uncertain duets with the starlette on call, now amazing with a Toccata by Bach that reaffirmed his value in a true sonorous chaos.

... Bacchetti shines a light on Scarlatti's music which seems to me at times entirely new, and with no enlightenment to be had from the booklet about his approach to these performances I decided to go the extra mile and ask him why he went for these tempi. This is Bacchetti's fourth in-depth single composer exploration after his work on Cherubini, Galuppi and Marcello, and his long reflection on these works has included comparisons with other theorists and interpreters as well as immersing himself in the original extant material. Bacchetti sums up his performances as a synthesis of this wide background and detailed examination of the sources of the music and its times - something which has brought him "inside" these pieces as much as anyone. Interpretation of these works is of course something which remains intuitive and intangible, and as we don't really know how fast or exactly in which manner these pieces were played there is no-one who can say Bacchetti is wrong in his performance decisions. I for one salute his occasional abandonment of accepted trends. With the utter conviction of these performances there are none which seem "wrong", and certainly not after the initial adjustment has been made to your expectations. ...

Bacchetti comes across being perfectly at ease: he found a difficult balance between intellectual asceticism (which he is inclined to) and a rare introspective finesse ... the exact meeting point between rational control and sensitive abandon, between being cantabile and clear, between vitality and Apollonian objectivity.
