Era, mi è sembrato, come se l’armonia universale si intrattenesse con se stessa, un po’ alla stregua di quello che deve essere successo nella mente di Dio poco prima della Creazione del mondo». Lo afferma Goethe. Dopo aver ascoltato alcuni brani del Clavicembalo ben temperato. Ascoltando l’ultima fatica di Ramin Bahrami risulta difficile non pensare a quell’altezza siderale. Entrambi i Libri, che notoriamente indagano tutto l’indagabile sulle tonalità dello strumento a testiera, si addentrano in sentieri mai battuti. Ma se quell’altezza viene lambita da Bach nella prima silloge, nella seconda, posteriore di più di vent’anni, è la cifra stilistica. Altezza siderale. Chiaro che non mancano molteplici e continui riferimenti a forme e stili del proprio tempo, dalla danza alla Sonata bipartita (spunta addirittura un Mozart di là da venire nel track 9): imprinting riconoscibili e orgoglio di un uomo aggiornatissimo quale Bach era. Ma su tutto governa il molteplice che procede dall’unico, secondo il principio dell’identità nella varietà approfondito dalla scienza filosofica di Leibniz. E l’identità, in questo Bach, è un’entità superiore. Tant’è che dopo i multipli cd dedicati al Kantor coi quali il pianista iraniano ci ha deliziato fino a oggi – interpretati in maniera sempre poeticamente intensa ma anche molto “terrena” nell’estrema confidenza col linguaggio d’autore – questa doppia registrazione perde volutamente contatto col reale. È il personale dialogo di Bahrami con l’Assoluto. A noi, semplici ascoltatori, il privilegio di esserne testimoni.–Nicoletta Sguben “amadeusonline.net”
