ive watched many of this womens videos on bach , very interesting , i would love to get the book she advertises on all backs pieces put it is very pricy
She has a video playing the whole 1001 fugue, like an actual playthrough! I would enjoy watching you reacting to her arrangement and playing. I think I even left a comment in that video too haha
Closest equivalent in modern German would be 'so' or 'also'. But Bach wasn't speaking modern German, he was raised in an area that spoke the Thuringian dialect. And Thuringian is kinda... weird. So, like, who's to say?
Bach slayed more poon than me and wrote better music, but I'm still not a Bach fan. I find his work mentally exhausting because you have to put effort in to enjoy it. Music is supposed to be like popping oxy where it just takes over and youre there for the ride. Also, high bass notes are for the truly enlightened
@marcossidoruk8033 of course i dont automatically get it. You have to think about what he's doing the whole time to get it. I had to do research on the Harmonies created in counterpoint to even understand a single piece. I had to write a shitty fugue to really get a grasp on it
@@HelplessHarmonies No. You don't need to think about anything. I don't understand even 1% of the technical aspects of counterpoint and I can still recognise Bach as the greatest composer that has ever lived. If you are used to listen to 4 chord music (nothing wrong with that) of course its going to sound weird and unintelligible, but if you are used to do active listening (which doesn't mean rationalising everything you listen) its great.
I guess if by "effort" you mean you have to pay attention, then sure. But like, really all that's being asked of you is that you sit there and listen and don't do anything else. Ya gotta put yourself in the shoes of someone living in the early 1700's. You don't have video games. You don't even have electricity. You don't hear music most days. If you do it's because you are rich and are studying music as a hobby. When you do hear music, it is from a single person playing a lone instrument. Often they're just practicing so it's not especially interesting to listen to anyway. Then you go to church, your one day off from all the menial labor you do, you sit in the seats reserved for your family and then this crazy genius sits down at the organ and starts playing. The reverb from the organ blasting through your body as it reflects off every surface. And your face begins to melt. Ya don't gotta "think" about anything. If you're trying to analyze, you're kinda missing the point. Bach didn't write his music to impress music theorists centuries later. He wrote it as a religious person trying to commune with his god in the best way he knew how. You're definitely missing a crucial aspect of the music if you're not sitting in a church with an organ vibrating your bones. But these sorts of performances are not uncommon and depending on where you live, you can likely attend one, often completely free. The main point though is that nothing about this music is outside of your grasp. If some poor German muck farmers could appreciate it, you can too. Also, familiarity is a MASSIVE part of the whole "it just takes over and youre there for the ride". If you're not that familiar with the musical language being employed, of course you're going to have a hard time. You need to acclimate yourself to music that is outside of your cultural norm. If all you've ever listened to is thumping house music, then that's your musical language and everything else is going to be unfamiliar and thus difficult to digest. Fortunately, brains are plastic and can pretty easily be molded to appreciate new things. You just need to make a regular effort to listen to new things.
@rainbowkrampus you've convinced me to give bach another try. I'll focus less on the theory and more on acclimating to the experience. I mostly like 4 part harmony like the other guy said. But I've started incorporating more counterpoint into my music that I write after listening to bach, so i can't deny he's influential. Something about his style begs to be imitated. I'll listen without dissecting it or judging it until I get used to it and then I'll reconsider

audience doesn't care bout your chords, they care what you say with em
My favorite western artists in order: Bach, Francisco Tarrega, Raulin Rodriguez, Anthony Santos, Romeo Santos, Zacarias Ferrera, Guns N Roses

Who knew the voice actor for the dad on Bob’s Burgers was so into Bach
Wow nice find, just subbed. Thank you! Love your channel btw.
I'll second that!! Going thru and analyzing the music would a great use of time. Never forget...It's not about the notes. It's about the music.
RUclips premium is relatively inexpensive and would improve your viewing experience. especially when listening to music.
no way he forgot this is the reaction log haha
he's so quirky
I really like her channel. Lots of nuggets in there especially with 1001 and 1003
I wonder if Bach kept constantly saying LIKE in German !

time to learn the fugue in all 12 keys
Can I retune 12 times?
@@Sorhands Just buy 11 more guitars. Easy.
dumb clickbait.
But you did click?
I want to get your reaction to guitar in La Diabla by Romeo Santos
garoto garoto garoto. nice video
Bro let's listen to Bachata together

You don't have to put any effort into enjoying bach, you just don't get it. Probably as a consequence of listening too much minimalistic music.

Gilfoyle.
The downfall of Western Music?
First inversion is pretty devious imo
I understood almost nothing :)
