      and contrary to others Bach believed you must have the whole music in your head before writing it down while most and today maybe all musicians sit for example on a piano and create along the way by playing and listening and experimenting. Bach didn't allow his sons to do that :D this really blows my mind...to create all this in your head....some of his stuff is 30min+

      You are right, but given some of the slower renditions of Bach (e.g. Varnus, Trifonov), I lean much towards the latter. Life is too short to play Bach too fast.

      xD .. do you make your statement out of your own experience? I mean do you play organ yourself?
      this question is not intended to be provocative if you guess so. The reason is instead, that i startet playing organ about 3 yrs ago. After i first listened to Bachs Passacaglia and especially the monumental final of the Fugue, i said to my sister: "when i will be able to play this Passacaglia one day, i would die happily." Spoken, i bought myself a midi-basspedal and an e-piano (both together for about 1k euro). Then i started practising very hard (when i had the time, because i actually was studying chemical engineering, which was allready pretty time consuming) and to my own surprise i could play the Passacaglia and the last 1 1/2 pages of the Fugue after 8 months or so, but i never thought, that it would be one of the hardest pieces written by the master Bach.
      Maybe i have to add, that i played allready piano back then when i was younger for about 7 years and unfortunately made break of about 10 years.
      I would appreciate it, if you would take your time to listen to my test-recording of the Passacaglia, which i uploaded on my channel (better the piano version and not the organ version, in the organ version i did plenty of mistakes :S). Even though i was enthousiastic after learning the Passacaglia i didnt start to learn the entire Fugue yet (because i prefer to play more piano literature) but soon i want to be capable of playing the whole BWV 582. I hope i will make it through it soon ^^

    the crazy part of this piece is that he is playing on and original organ. usually the ones we have today, the keys are of equal weight. If you notice that he has three rows of keys. some of them are connected to the middle keyboard, which he is playing out of. The knobs to the side are telling the pipes how much air is going through them. so some of the keys would be harder to push down. the top and the bottom keyboards represent higher and lower notes. So when he plays on the center keys, other pipes open up to give a fuller sound. thus you would have to push down harder on that key. crazy!

    • @LS-oh8kv
      @LS-oh8kv 7 лет назад +13

      It's called a mechanical action organ. The keys within a keyboard (proper term is a manual) are all the same, and the middle couples to other keyboards by pulling a coupler lever. If you couple both manuals to the great (middle keyboard) the actuation force is roughly 3-4 pounds per key, but it's the same for all of the keys on the keyboard. The bottom keyboard is called the ruckpositive and the top is called the swell. The great is always the most powerful, usually followed by the swell and then the ruckpositive. No matter what you do with the stops and couplers, all the keys on a single keyboard will be the same weight as the rest, the only difference would be when one hand is on one manual and another is on a different manual. This organ reminds me of a Brombaugh organ which I play quite often, very nice instruments.

    Man and machine and nothing there in between
    The flying circus and a man from Prussia
    The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain
    The western front and all the way to Russia
    Death from above, you're under fire
    Stained red as blood, he's roaming higher
    Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies
    That's where the legend will arise
    And he's flying
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast and he's flying too high
    Higher, an eye for an eye
    The legend will never die
    First to the scene, he is a lethal machine
    It's bloody April and the tide is turning
    Fire at will, it is the thrill of the kill
    Four in a day shot down with engines burning
    Embrace the fame, red squadron leader
    Call out his name: "Rote Kampfflieger"
    In the game to win, a gambler rolls the dice
    Eighty allies paid the price
    And he's flying
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast and he's flying too high

      I heard someone play this in public and I immediately thought hey were playing Red Baron. But it was a little off, so I decided to look it up and discovered that the intro was heavily inspired by this composition! It’s interesting how classic music can make it into every genre without people even knowing. Also, I’m so glad I found another Sabaton fan. The Red Baron is one of my favorites.

    This is an exceptional performance and do not drop the pedals. Some pianists are not accustomed to hearing music written on three staves. The second bass clef adds depth and is an integral part of the song. Thank you for the performance as I am currently learning this piece (for pipe organ). This video has helped me with some technical aspects of performance as I just started taking lessons a few months ago (I used to play piano/synth).

      Certainly not to us, but it was to Bach. His inspired genius defies measure, much less comprehension, especially in counterpoint but no less in text inspiration, despite texts penned by others; he still had to ingeniously set the music to it, e.g. the great BWV 248 Weihnachtsoratorium. I've studied him for >50 years and his inspiration is so indescribable I almost feel like I know less than when I started! It's always hilarious to hear the so-called Bach "experts" make fools of themselves so easily (e.g. the phony "BWV 1096"), proving how vastly superior he was, though folk who quickly cow tow to "experts" sadly blindly commit the authoritarian logical fallacy.

    Lyrics:
    Man and machine and nothing there in between
    A flying circus and a man from Prussia
    The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain
    The western front and all the way to Russia
    Death from above, you're under fire
    Stained red as blood, he's roaming higher
    Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies
    That's where the legend will arise
    And he's flying
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast and he's flying too high
    Higher, an eye for an eye
    The legend will never die
    First to the scene he is a lethal machine
    It's bloody April and the tide is turning
    Fire at will it is the thrill of the kill
    Four in a day shot down with engines burning
    Embrace the fame, red squadron leader
    Call out his name, Rote Kampfflieger
    In the game to win, a gambler rolls the dice
    Eighty allies paid the price
    And he's flying
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast and he's flying too high
    Higher, an eye for an eye
    The legend will never die
    Higher
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast, again, he's flying too high
    He's flying higher, an eye for an eye
    The legend will never die
    Higher
    Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies
    And the legend never dies
    And he's flying
    And he's flying
    And he's flying
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast and he's flying too high
    Higher, an eye for an eye
    The legend will never die
    Higher, the king of the sky
    He's flying too fast and he's flying too high
    Higher, an eye for an eye
    The legend will never die

      @@rubiksmaster301 heute vor 2 Jahren (03.09.2017) ich kriege die Nachricht von Peter (Name geändert) "Jürgen (Name geändert) muss um 17 Uhr gehen deswegen um halb" so was gab's noch nie und sollte in der Form auch nicht wieder vorkommen. Dann trifft man auf irgendwelche arschgefickten Hurensöhne, die einen ähnlichen (oder noch besseren) Prozess/Situation als am 09.04.2017 verhindern ...
      Mögen sie auf ewig verflucht sein und in der Hölle schmoren. Denen sollen als Vorspiel die Augen verbunden und die Schuhe ausgezogen werden, um sie in einen dunklen Raum oder Zimmer (Ich berichtete: ruclips.net/video/ZTNej2USaYk/видео.html ) voller Legosteine zu schicken.
      So viel dazu. Am 06. April 2018 sollte alles nachgeholt werden. Aber jedes Ereignis ist einzigartig und umso bedauerlicher ist es dass solche Arschgeigen da einschreiten.
      Naja damals war man noch zufrieden mit allem und dankbar für alles was man an Js kriegt.
      Daher als Markierung des Ereignisses diese Musik (Ich verzichte an dieser Stelle bewusst auf direkte Parallelen zu Bn, Ln und co!). Ich war damals in so einer Piano tiles Phase. Und als Ohrwurm hatte ich keinen blöden Schlager, sondern diese Fuge Nr. 16 von J. S. Bach in G-Moll. Das Repertoire von Afric Simone schien ausgeschöpft gewesen zu sein ("Shaka" sollte mich ca ein Jahr später eines besseren belehren, ruclips.net/video/pxvZaKj9zAM/видео.html Ich schweife schon wieder ab...).
      Ich schreie anstatt zu reden und körnigen Frischkäse kann man auch aus Quark und Mais herstellen. Da spart man Geld. Mal eben das 2000. Bild auf der SD Karte schießen. "Nickel(II)Chlorid-Hexahydrat-Unterhose". Schönes Grün. Übrigens am 03.09.2017 fand die allererste "Geschichte"-Fahrt statt. Ich eschauffier mich allerdings auch leicht über Peter (Name geändert). Es hatte 2 Tage nicht geregnet und da soll es nass sein???!
      Gut. Der Whatsapp Nachrichten- Austausch war eine kleine wieder gut machung für den 04. Juni 2017. Was fällt mir noch ein...? Ach ja spontan wurde eine fast schon neue Kategorie eingeführt und zwar BC. Kurioserweise ging es fast in Richtung A. Ja, Eckenschießen ist schon irgendwie seltsam (Danke, ihr Hurensöhne). Und das r ging gegen 17 Uhr, wenn ich mich net täusche, Richtung b.

      Fun fact btw, at first, I was wery confused about tone, cuz first note soinds neither like clear Ab or A. After checking hzs, I found, what hear there ~420-424 hz. That means he plays a bit higher than Ab (~415 hz), but lower than A.
