Prelude 0:00
Fugue 1:53
In this recording I used the 4th harmonic pedal in resonance position only. The harmonic pedal was invented by Denis de La Rochefordière.

Bach was a big fan of D minor. The D minor prelude and fugue from books 1 and 2 are all memorable.
Exactley!
Yes! ❤
Yys !! Y ou are so right!!:) , Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue (D Minor) ,Organ Toccata and Fugue in D minor, Chaconne for unaccompanied violin in D Minor ..... and more !:)
@@pianolessonsboulder1894 don't forget his magnum opus, the art of fugue, was entirely in d minor:)
@@Winston_Polymath Thank you so much, Wiston !!! I didn't know !! I am deeply moved to learn this !!!
Im left speechless by both your absolutely amazing technique and your equally amazing musicality, simply incredible
Musicality is very important, even in Bach ❤
Amen!!! Heartily agree !!!!:)
@@njmsj Especially in bach!
Fantastic performance, one of my favourite by Bach 💕
Bravissimo!!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing, Maestro!!
Wow, excellent work, virtuous and admirable!!
Oh my gosh, Paul you clearly improved a lot ♥ i don't know why, but the sound coming from the piano is way different, way clear and confident.
And you are so modest! You never show yourself! But the total body of your work is super impresive ! Bravo !!!
lol
He shows himself, but he is modest ❤
Sooo impressive how you learn these pieces and perform them so well in such a short period of time
work work and work
Amen!
If paul has been playing piano for most of his life then he has probably played the WTC for most of his life. Relearning a piece is a lot quicker than just learning so it makes sense how quickly he can upload these
@@natf8950 u only achieve that studying really far
It's quite obvious that he already played many of these Preludes and Fugues, so it's not impossible to record them.
My favorite prelude
Thank you Paul!
you deserve one million subscribers
I’ve been learning this for two months and can play it very well, I’m very happy with your performance of this!
Bravo! I like especially your interpretation of the Fugue. It’s always a bit of a puzzle to have triplets with straight sixteenth notes...but, and I hope I have this correct, the WTC is-paraphrase-the “Piano/Harp/Cem Bible” according to Schumann. Very inspirational.
If such as thing as 'PURE MUSIC" exists, then this is it!
NOBODY BEATS BACH!!
Thank you for posting!
Myra Borisute I prefer Beethoven but this was played very well and all the notes are very clear.
@@lavender_rosewatermoon2486 so you think Beethoven beats a man who IMPROVISED a 6 part fugue, wrote MONTHLY cantatas, and completely changed the history of music by introducing the concept of tonality to people like Beethoven? Fuck you.
Exactly why Bach is much better the Beethoven
@@mr.clasher-clashofclansboo7286 Tonality has been developed for many years. If someone says Beethoven is the greatest composer of all time, they're not wrong either.
Bach and Beethoven were good for the opposite reasons. Bach may be the one who kept to the form, while Beethoven is known for doing the exact opposite, which literally lead to the romantic era.
I agree with Lavender. I personally think Beethoven was greater than Bach.

Beautiful
1:53 fugue
How can you hold 3 voices in such a masterful fugue?
Simply J. S. Bach.
And yet your profile pic is Beethoven
Not to be rude
Bravo Paul 👍
Raman Hamo jhyhjku
Excellent!
A virtual hurricane of transcendent energy and of course beauty
this is just dazzlingly good innit
Good version. Very clear. 👍👍
Bach is so amazing!
Only Bach can make a fugue on a theme like that in 3 voices and make it work that nicely...
Thank you!
Que linda música.
Thank you so much
I'm going to learn this today, I hope I do well
Wow! This was played so beautifully! I've been studying this prelude and fugue for a while already, but I definitely don't play like him! I hope one day I get there!
Se encuentran y se enamoran; se desencuentran y se desenamoran; pero así es la vida! Una historia de encuentros!
Bach's name adds up numerically to 14. The top d of the rising notes of the 1st bar of the fugue is the 14th note. The descending chromatic passage then spells Bach's name twice in different combinations. It's fascinating how he structured and embedded so many ideas so artfully whilst creating beautiful music at the same time.
Wanna make some lore?
Bach wrote 1000 (and most probably more) pieces, this could most definitely be a coincidence
Best morning tea ☕️ watching this “mmmmm” /bow....!!!! You didn’t update us, has youtube quit harassing about copy right since the name “band”? Is it working :-)
That was perfect
Hi Paul ! Once again, you played beautifully :) Could you make a video like this for Chopin's Etude op 25 no 5, with sheets and this camera angle ? I'm looking for indications about pedalling and fingering for the first and last parts !
Best regards and thank you for your great work :)
Hugo
Would you consider the first to measures of the fugue itself to be the subject of the piece?
Bree Coke-Attewell Yes, the subject is two bars long. There is also a counter subject at half bar 3.
I'm an amateur and I'm learning the dminor book 2 but am uncertain how to get it faster. I seem to have solved the tecnicalities but have trouble (it seems) getting it up to your speed. Do you play slowly then rise up to the desired result with aa metronome? And do you stop to fix any uncertainties before continuing....THANKS :)
damn i gotta learn this one
where i can fing tutorial for this .?
I have to learn this now and so I searched it to listen to what it's supposed to sound like... now I want to bury myself and cry :,)
O l l Y I have to learn this as well :)
O L Y SAME
Same
I'm able to play that fugue but i cannot master this prelude. i can play it a few times correcty but i cannot do it every time :(
what can i do ? i m playing the piano since 2018.
Wonderful! I have a question Unrelated to your performance, but how often do you tune your piano
You should tune it at least once a year, if you can after the summer.
(I'm a piano student)
Sometimes I feel it gets overlooked more than it should
John Field first nocturne plssssssssss
1:53 - 2:10 doesn't this sound rather similar to Mahler's string quartet in a minor? Love this piece, well played btw;)
yes, actually it does! I listen to it
ruclips.net/user/clipUgkxcLfqFEdo6g3zOBouKQAWPuz9RxZ_52CO
the chromatic descent is the same, just in other pitch 👍👍👍👍
The hand independence is real
Hello, Mr. Paul Barton, I'm very fan of yours, I'm called Alexandre Sousa. I play Clarinet but I'm also studying Piano, but what I really want is the clarinet, but as I've seen it's very good, I propose the challenge of one day playing some of Stravinsky's work one of the pieces for Piano and then? Do you accept the challenge? I really like hearing you play believe me. I'll be waiting for an answer from you.
1:53 Fugue
0:32 - 0:34 (watched at the speed of 0.25): it looks to me that there is an error in the 3rd beat of the measure 15. Instead of A3 G3, A3 C#4 was played. I was watching in the slow motion to see what fingering Paul uses. Of course, this is just nitpicking and I value very much what Paul is doing!
Wow

Oh-this is so wonderful showing the music and your playing! Great playing. I was curious as my version does not have most of the very important mordents(book1 and 2 /Dover pub).Also was curious about them being 1/2 steps and why the music does not show the flat
Hi Sandy. I don't know how well i can explain this. But my Henle edition also does not show any flats for the mordents. The critical commentary states that all mordents (except in Measure 1) in BWV 875 were added by Anna Magdalena Bach later. Also, no original autograph survives for this piece.
So maybe playing the mordents half step (semitone apart) in this piece became a convention over the years :D
@@shreyaskaushal1657 thanks for the research knowledge!
@@shreyaskaushal1657 I just googled that crital commentary book-wow!too intense ! So what's with the movable clefs?Also measure 37 (in this prelude)is strange-with a flat added to a B that is already flat
@@sandydileo5961 Ah! Yes, bars 37-38 were added between 1742 and 1744, when Bach decided to revise the prelude (according to the commentary in Henle).
If you look at bar 37, the 3rd beat in treble clef and the last semi quaver (sixteenth note) of beat 2 left hand are flattened, because the B on second beat right hand has a natural mark.
So the two b flats are there (in bass and treble clefs) to ensure that the earlier natural is ignored!
I hope your edition shows the same, Sandy!
@@sandydileo5961 also, what do you mean by the movable clefs, Sandy?
I’m learning this piece right now and damn is it difficult to play it spot on
yea the voicing is difficult to control whilst maintains clarity and fluency.
Muscle memory is good for Bach
@@santiagobalbi3798 if you practise correctly, otherwise it’ll be hard to fix
@@okaybuddy6027 play slowly without errors and get good muscle memory more easy
Could you please play Debussy ballade?

I feel two times but there are three
It goes up to 6
👍
The fugue reminds me of Beethoven's 9th symphony, second movement.
your rhythm at 2:29 is incorrect

I played it better. Both pieces. The theme was heard better in my playing.
post it pendeja
speed 1.25
no this is perfect
lacks rhythm
When playing Bach's pieces, stop using pedal please. And you know why.
Keep on coping, pedal in Bach is usable and even necessary sometimes. He's playing on a piano, not a harpsichord, so he can make use of tools that harpsichordists don't have, because harpsichordists use tools WE don't have. How will you make legato when it's impossible for the fingers to do so?
It's a dull performance.
Why?
Stop reading partition for more viewer
Are you dumb ?
