Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! @Jack Stewart Thanks, Jack. My approach has always been the opposite, preferring to play intermediate pieces. While I love listening to the prelude, I'm not really enjoying working on it yet.…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! @Olli I actually listened to the Allegro first, then the Fugue, now your Prelude. How amazing that you're playing all three of these monuments! I know the Prelude is played much more often than the…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! @Olli Really beautiful, Olli! I'm guessing your left hand is a bit sore at the end of playing that?

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! @Olli Incredible, Olli! Great sound on the recording. I love your dynamics and variations in tone color. That piece seems like an real workout, like trying to keep up with a speeding train.

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! Prelude BWV 997 measures 1-32 Mar 19 Pressing onward. I'm not too happy with the progress. If I'm going to continue working on this, I think I may need something easier to work on at the same time,…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! @Moyses Lopes Thank you for the encouragement. I honestly am not too sure that I have the technique for this yet, and I'm not having a lot fun playing it. I haven't moved on yet.…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! Prelude BWV 997 measures 1-16 only (Mar 18) The last couple videos of the Sarabande that I posted give a little hint at what I'd try to play next, and that's the Prelude to the same suite.…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! Sarabande BWV 997 Mar 18 I've been a bit sick for a couple days (not Covid) so I haven't practiced as much or as well as I'd like. Here is an update of the Sarabande.…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! Sarabande BWV 997 Mar 16 Here is today's update. This video is seventeen seconds longer than yesterday's, so apparently I played it slower today. I did a little better job today on the short bits in…

Re: WEEK 2: The Depths of J.S.Bach's Music! @Moyses Lopes Thanks, Moyses. That's what I am doing, actually. Below I posted an update from yesterday that just has a little bit of ornamentation on the repeat of the A section.
