So beautiful.

So beautiful, as always. You encapsulate that stillness so effortlessly. Difficult to hear it any other way.

Beyond beautiful. I keep coming back to your acoustic recordings - they are so great! The expression together with the tempo are just magnificent.

Great performe thanks

Andreas as I slowly work my way through all of Your RUclips concerts, I am always surprised at the Gems of pieces You find on the road less traveled. I was not very familiar with this piece, and yet the notes arrive as though familiar faces welcomed home from a long journey, I am guessing he wrote this in the last 10 -15 years of his life as it has all the hallmarks of his later style, with all those mediant transitions and semi-cadences that move onward through not quite resolved suspensions. As to the temperament question. Werckmeister slightly favors the near keys (C,F, &G) while the far keys, F#(Gb). C# (Db), and B suffer a little, as some of the thirds in those keys are over sharp, compared to equal temperament, (the 5ths are a little squashed). The advantage of the sustained "misty" "strings" or choruses of "oboes and chaums", voices on this synth, or an organ with several not perfectly "zero beated" pipes is that, the ragged beat notes of quarreling mistuned notes are spread out into the "mist of voices", and are not quite as jarring, when there is a multiplicity of near mistuned unisons rather than perfectly tuned unisons, As one of the piano tuners, that I queried about piano tuning, stated,: that by slightly spreading the mistuning of a tempered scale across, the three strings per "note" one can make the beat notes in chords less noticeable. So if this piece is in "G" for instance, (one of the "near" keys Bach favored for Werckmeister temperament), the "wolf tones" would be less evident even though Bach is so exploratory in his beautiful chord transitions, and modulations in this piece. We don't know exactly what was Bach's method of tempering, but it seems to have been somewhere between Werckmeister , and modern 12th root of two per semitone "equal temperment". As there are only a few cents difference between the two, and a synthesizer using some number base can only approximate the irrational relationship of note values in an equal tempered scale to a degree (albeit- nearly perfect). If Bach planned for a concert at a church in which the tuning of the organ was Werckmeister, he would deliberately choose a key that showed off the organ in it's best light.

Thanks so pecefull

Alessandro is in my opinion a better composer than his son Domenico ! Speed this up and it almost sounds like J S Bach. He really was a generation ahead of his times. Well played!

SUBLIME !

Yes Andreas, this music gives one the feeling one is wandering around in an iridescent nebula made of incandescent dust, and a million stars. It is the LONGING to know the essence of what is this strange beauty ...?????

Semplicemente stupendo! 💞 Musica sublime! 👍💯

Beautiful!

There is so much incredible music out there, and a lot of it is unknown to me :/ Thank you Andreas!!

Very nice!

Thanks great and pacefull music

Somehow everything You upload belongs to a UNIQUE UNIVERSE ! Even the pieces I have heard many times before are transformed to exist in a PEACEFUL PLACE of long ago & far away. I LOVE. that universe. I think I can hear the water in the background, but at a level of perhaps minus 48 db..... is that my imagination ??? ... the music and the water open a certain space.... tranquility....sublime with a dash of turbulent flow....

All of these Prima Toni fugues of Pachelbel are gorgeous ! Several phrases in this are very reminiscent of the Mozart Requiem. It is probably more than coincidental. Mozart studied Bach and with Bach's son, and Bach studied with Pachelbel,... and beyond that.... they all tapped into the sap from the wellspring of All knowing unknown.

Andreas, There is something so special about Your Art ! You have found all these beautiful pieces to reveal from an almost forgotten past, and the way You play and accompany them with images,... always brings out something eternal... there is longing, sweetness, poignancy, hope and a sense of eternal connectedness. I feel like I just went for a long walk, on a beautiful crisp, sunny but cool day. All alone, but a part of a friendly UNIVERSE.

Wonderful !😀

Very "far out"!

Yet again ,it is really relaxing.

Wonderful interpretation.

So beautifully played. Maybe a Steinway would be better but I've heard many performances on them that don't get even close to what you've done with this. Superb.

In other words: "Memento mori" :) beautiful and calming rendition of a piece I am not sure I knew before.

Sehr schoen

Just sublime. The music and visuals are transcendent.

Curiously, what my mother told me about the wonder of the madrigals and others about Palestrina, I feel fulfillled by these pieces by Pachelbel.

This would be for the chill-out of your disco, the after party :)

Some beautiful veiws and serene music .

I love your posts, and beautiful landscape. many thanks.

I L O V E. this piece and what You have done with it. !

A sound journey linked to images. Your videos hypnotize me, Andreas. Many greetings!

The most calming playing I know. Love it!

love the temperament. perhaps just my prejudices, but would love to hear this on harpsichord.

Andreas, such a LOVELY and deeply moving fugue. You have made it a priority, for me, to find complete works by Pachelbel. I was just reading a bit about him today. Apparently he lost a young son and his 1st wife to a plague that hit the German states in 1682-3 just before Bach was born on March 21, 1685.

I love this Fugue SO MUCH ! Filled with so much sad longing, who would ever have guessed Scarlatti had this in him ?

Who played this? Mr. Andreas? Wonderful. I am into this fugue f minor rarely played by other pianists.

Fantastic, as usual - I wonder how many takes it takes to play a whole fugue in real time without mistakes?

Yes, a really interesting piece, I don't know it. Beautifully realised, those higher registers sound particularly intimate and haunting. Superb, Andreas.

Thanks so much for Your devotion to the fugal Art, and bringing the works of composers other than Bach out in the open where they can appreciated, and reincarnated into OUR HEARTS .!

It looks like fugues are not an exclusive territory of the master of all Fugue composers :)

What a FABULOUS piece of music. i am just discovering this ! It begins with a chromatic crawl upward , and yearningly mysteriously evolves slowly and appears to majestically resolve at 2:40.... then it seems to start again but now crawls chromatically downward, I am guessing as I am relying on my ear alone,... that it repeats the earlier sequence but in its inverted form ! This has to be one of the most SUBLIME pieces I ever heard.

Beautiful sound, performance and fantastic images. Always high quality work, dear Andreas. It sounds so mysterious and deep! Thank you for that.

It's unfortunate that whenever I try to listen to the music in this video on RUclips, it is brutally interrupted by aggressive advertisements in the middle of the piece, which really doesn't fit to the mood of these meditative sounds. Would it perhaps be possible to arrenge the settings of the video so that the advertisements only start before and after, but not in the middle of this heavenly music?

Thanks for sharing Andreas. Very beautiful.

Scatti fotografici importanti e decisamente bellissimi,di alta qualità! 🤩

Incredible music as always man. It makes me dream of a different world

Thanks for sharing all this music of Pachelbel. One thing I will never understand: a person composes some beautiful piece of music that is much beloved, and very popular. And 99.99 percent of the people who listen, enjoy it (or are sick of it), and then it never occurs to them, to wonder if that person ever wrote anything else, or are curious enough to try to find anything else by that person to listen to. About 38 years ago I found a book of scores by Pachelbel. There were 600 pieces in it. I would love to find a collection of scores by Pachelbel with all his known works. He was certainly a genius. I also hadn't realized for a long time that most of the interesting measures in the score "composed" for the brilliant film Kyonoskostsi "by " Philip Glass were in fact penned by Pachelbel.

Thank you for this lovely version. By the way: I like the type of synthesizer sound used here better than in your more recent videos, in which the change in sound quality and pitch of longer notes creates a certain restlessness that distracts from the actual music.

Really enchanting - thank you!
