You'll get no arrogance from me - learning should be fun, not a trauma. I'd be delighted to answer your question. A de-crescendo is where the intensity/vol​ume of the music steadily decreases. In this video you can therefore hear one from, I guess, 1:11 through 1:37. A crescendo is obviously then the opposite: the intensity builds to a peak. You can hear a small one directly before he starts the de-crescendo.​ I particularly love it at 1:24 where he makes it echo away, just incredible.

I heard the term de-crescendo being used by one of the best conductors of all time, Herbert von Karajan, in this video: /watch?v=Shc-​4AZVaNk Listen​ from 7:20 for the de-crescendo being played, then here Karajan discussing it. It's quite interesting watching a good conductor talk an orchestra through a piece.

They were clearly completely in the zone: clarity, sensitivity, precision. The orchestra was in great harmony with the soloist in terms of timing and mood, it's all very structured and to the point, very focused, at the same time very expressive. You can't really top that. You can, at best, interpret it differently, but this one works for me.

Gould mastered Bach like no one else... He's living the music, each note is like a ripple through his body. Just look at him. Sheer magic.
