I can not stress the importance of the donations my project receives from very truly generous music lovers worldwide. I do my best not to spend on unnecessary things. Today, I will tell you that I used $200.00 of donation money to pay for a license from Naxos of America to keep my animation of Bach’s Clavieübung III up for the life of the posting. Without commercials and free for those who want to see the secrets behind this most misunderstood composition.
I thank all the donors who made this possible! You help me and my project so much. I do not know what I would without all of you. This animation is yours! Please enjoy it… as long as you want!
gerubach You truly are a generous youtuber....and you have done so much to preserve Bach's works....I don't think any RUclipsr would try so much to reupload a video....You are really one of a kind. I wish you lucky for channel.
May God Bless You!😊
I can't thank you enough for what you're doing! You really are a wonderful person.
Thank you so much for all your Efforts ! I just donated something to you.
I've said this before, but please make a Patreon. Patrons would probably donate a few hundred per video. I would love to automatically donate $5 to you for every video.
Why is this composition misunderstood? Oh and even though I'm too poor to donate (I don't even have paypal) I very much appreciate what you're doing.
People often note how humbling it is to see impressive works that composers made when they were young (Mozart, Mendelssohn, Rachmaninoff, etc.). That's definitely true, but I think if you really want to feel mediocre, just look at any fugue/canon/etc. by my boy J.S. Bach.
Exactly. The prodigies’ early compositions are so impressive because of the ages of their composers, while Bach’s are incredible simply by their existence.
Bach isn't only the most stupendous miracle I'm music. He's the most stupendous miracle in the known universe.
Yes indeed!
our boy
I love this channel. When I searched "clavier ubung iii" I didn't expect to find a full video of the work, organized as it should be and with score on top of it. Cheers

Wow that first piece is so........ wonderful, marvelous... like a flight of angels.... have no.words for describe
What I love about that prelude is the form, it mirrors the previous Clavierubung by starting with a French Overture like BWV831, moving to an Italian Concerto style like BWV 971, and then the third part is a German fugue, his home turf. He condenses his previous years work in a minute or two and then moves onto something fast paced and exciting, all while connecting the 3 themes in such a genius way. The form and structural logistics of the piece are astounding, but it is not even the main attraction for me personally, the melodies and subjects are so expressive which is why I keep coming back.
YES, IS GLORIOUS! THE FIRST PRELUDE LIKE ANGELS IN THE ORGAN! IS WONDERFUL.
"We all believe in one God" Choral is beautiful
27:25 to end of piece. Holy shit, that man was legendary.
Η χυδαιότητα σας είναι ιδιαίτερα εκτός τόπου σε αυτήν τη σελίδα.
@@notlih11 Some cannot find words to describe how unearthly good was Bach. I found the closest I could and some people seem to agree too. It's not that people don't use the word or it isn't daily reality.
I also praised a human being, but your politeness did the opposite. :)
I thought it was the most engaging up to that point in the video. Was looking for a comment about it!
It's that kind of mega-chord resolution I like most about organ music.
@@goldenstone7094 So unexpected. Reminds me of the fugue in bwv 552. Not necessarily harmony, but the time changes and feel changes, yet the fugue remains
🙂🎹🎶👍👍👍 Bach ist Bach!
Gerubachs Arbeit ist ALLEINE schon ein Grund, warum der Computer und das Internet sinnvolle Erfindungen sind :-) . Einfach genial wie einem hier das Werk Bachs nähergebracht wird.

A subscriber just notified me via private message of the errors that have now been corrected. Thank you for filling in the time index info whilst I neglected to provide them in the first place (a whole month ago!!).
Sorry for the late reaction, but it is no problem! ;-)
Martijn Pieterman You're a hero we need, but never deserved
So glad to see this back up! I love what you did with the chorale pairing. Great work!
this is by far the best recording of Clavier-Ubung III I've heard! truly refreshes the soul.
Well, I have an even better recording. I recorded it live in concert, without the organists knowledge or permission; to this day he has no idea that it exists. It is one of my most cherished recordings and I have listened to it probably a hundred times. I suppose I should feel guilty, but I do not. Shame on me!
@@bachkirche I must hear this
Will Martin: I am sorry but I recorded it without the organists knowledge or permission so it must remain in my private collection. I have some guilt for doing this, it’s not typical of my behavior, but the performance is so wonderful that I have managed to forgive myself.
@@bachkirche I think that if the organist knew how dear your recording of it is to him, he would be moved. Enjoy the performance!
It was my intro to this work - bought at exorbitant price from Heffers in Cambridge (remember that?). Subsequently I have acquired a few more versions - Alain, Hurford, Bowyer, Johanssen, Bohme - all have their plus points.
O love the First praeludium pro organo pleno! Is glorious and divine! I 💛 BACH! - 1:39
This is sound that communicates deeper than can be fathomed. Many thanks, many thanks.
Probably the most remarkable organ masterpiece of J. S. Bach (and one of the few works that he decided to publish).
Pure thrill for mind and soul (just two examples: Vater Unser at 56:06 or Jesus Christus Unser Heiland at 1:23:56 ).
Thank you for this superb effort!
Wow!! What a fantastic video! The recordings are the best I've heard, and the animation is stellar! I love that you incorporated the original hymns in your video with the translation. Thank you!!
A huge work as always. Thanks, Geeubach
Objectively speaking the German Organ Mass might be Bach's greatest composition.
feel free to write something better
I just came from an organ concert where 12 of this pieces were played, beautiful
Superb videos and use of the sung chorales. Very fine organ and performance. Outstanding.
Amazing work gerubach!
This is truly a healing and a blessing for me... Thank you, Gerubach.
I like so much the first 32 bars of the first organ piece!
Anni fa, ho eseguito il Klavierubung III ma in tre concerti...criticatissimo sin dal praeludium 552... secondo quei "signori " il fraseggio, il tactus le registrazioni dei 21 choralvorspiele669/689 e dei vier duetten 802/805 ...Non avevano mai eseguito ne sentito ...tronfi anche nella ignoranza abissale ! Io non ho mollato e sono rimasto tuttora quello che pian piano , con studio e fatica e sopportando umiliazioni anche da chi poteva solo andare a pascolare le pecore ma insegnava a scuola con la terza media e teoria e solfeggio….. J.S. Bach ne ha passate tante , è finito pure in carcere, ed era BACH! Beh, questa esecuzione mi piace moltissimo, tempo ok! tactus e tempo nonché ritmo stra OK!!le fegistrazioni...beh abbiamo un illustre italiano napoletano che a 23 anni scrisse il trattato …. ed. de samtis, ROMA!! di cui il V volume non fu più pubblicato Hanno criticato anche lui, il grande Fernando Germani…. io sono solo un mediocre , ma lo so, loro non esistono e non lo sanno. Grazie di questi doni . Complimenti vivissimi al maestro organista . Dio vi benedica, sempre.
This is more than a treasure. Thank you so much
Porque ele era o maior, porque só ele era gênio, porque construiu toda uma arte sobre o legado de seus antecessores, porque os que vieram depois aprenderam com ele como se fazia, Johann Sebastian Bach.
Sem dúvida, o maior de todos os tempos, o gênio supremo da música.
Great job! Divine art!!!
com certeza
gosto bastante do 51:48
Excellent!
wow another masterpiece, composed by Bach, animated by gerubach! ;D
Excellent work as always!
Thanks :)
I've been lookin for decades for a sun version!!!
Thank you very much!!
Great work, i really love it, thanks!
It's just exellent!
Wasn't it pretty radical to put a Kyrie with German lyrics in between? That's a pretty big statement.
Yes, Luther was pretty radical regarding theology, but don't forget, it wasn't him who wanted to leave the Catholic church. He was excommunicated because he wasn't willing to revoke his teachings, but he the schism wasn't his intention. He has kept a lot of traditions of the old church (including the ordinary of the mass which includes Kyrie), even reinstated some then forgotten ones. The "Kyrie" chorales merely follow this initiative and add explanations to the Greek/Latin mass texts in national language - in line with Luther's principle that church services, public and private prayers and sacred texts should be translated and explained in a languge spoken by the members of the local congregation.
I should also mention that the practice of "troping," adding newly written texts to parts of the Mass Ordinary, was already an longstanding and well accepted tradition from at least the establishment of Gregorian chant. These "tropes" would sometimes relate directly to the portion of the Mass Ordinary they were added to, but other times they would relate instead more to the Mass Proper for the particular day they were sung on, calling on particular saints or mentioning seemingly unrelated biblical passages. And though they were written in Latin, they were often written in highly regional Latin dialects as spoken by the monks in a particular place, with many words recorded in these tropes for the first time. The practice of troping wasn't abolished until the Council of Trent, decades after Luther. What is most significant about including German words is the same thing that is significant about translating the Bible into German, which is that it begins involving laypeople in religion without the need for a translator.
It was that legendary WTF moment after the reformation around the 1550s when ordinary citizens in Germany, Britain, Scandinavia, etc
suddenly realised that they actually don't speak Latin and Greek.
Several decades after the 30 Years War and protestantism firmly embedded into the German religious landscape, it probably wasn't very shocking to anyone.
2:59-3:04 is something heavenly
That progression at 25:20...
It made me shout, "woohoo"!
In the Prelude “Kyrie, Gott heiliger Geist” The pedal part was rather easy compared to the previous preludes. But, Bach makes up for the lost complexity with a rather difficult manual part. I thought that was so cool.
This is universe.
Boy I clicked this video so fast
C' est si rare d' entendre le mésotonique !!!
Wunderbar!
MAGNIFICO
50:11 and 23:44 very good
1:32
It starts at 1:40
Amazing.
Monumental
could you please make animations with higher resolution? like 720p? it's kinda blurry using 360p(already the maximum).
you might want to change the first timestamp to 0:00 so that labels are enabled in youtube :)
It also doesn't help that the runtime appears first, and it looks like an out-of-order timestamp, which also prevents chapter labels.
So, are these something like church etudes? To practice but also be good enough for liturgy?
48:15 my favourite part
1:04:50
Good
Emil Cioran was right: God owes a lot to Bach!
You can add a scrolling of the Third Simphony of Beethoven?
Shocking and gorgeous amount of chromaticism in the first duet.
The German word "Clavierübung" (also written "Clavieruebung") means "keyboard practice" (cf. "étude"). Bach's third volume of this work is referred to as an organ mass.
None of the volumes of the Clavier-Uebung contain any pieces that a knowledgeable musician would categorize as etudes or practice material to develop keyboard skills.
An apt translation of title page would be: "Third Part of the Keyboard Practice [a better translation might be "Keyboard Treatise"], consisting of diverse organ [chorale] preludes on [Martin Luther's] Catechism and other [Lutheran] hymns. Composed for music lovers, and especially for connoisseurs of such work, for the refreshment of their spirits, by Johann Sebastian Bach, Royal Polish and Electoral Saxon Court Composer, Capellmeister, and Director of the Choral Music in Leipzig. Published by the author."
Not a word in the title page suggests that the purpose of the work is to provide practice material to develop keyboard playing skills.
I don't want to dispute what you say, Mr. Inman. I am not a keyboard artist, and you certainly seem to know whereof you write. My main point, the reason I chimed in, is that "Clavierübung" is not German for "organ mass". Whatever the intent of the composer or performer, "Übung" does mean "practice"; a treatise is generally a Handlung, or Abhandlung. And with respect to the term "etude", aren't you familiar with quite a few pieces called etudes which you would not categorize as practice material to develop (keyboard} skills?
@@notlih11 I know what _Uebung_ means, Ms. notlih11. In the late Baroque _Clavier-Uebung_ was often used as a title for a collection of keyboard music. Bach published four collections of keyboard music under the title "Clavier-Uebung," yet none of these collections was intended for "keyboard practice." This is evident not only from the character of the music, but also from the title pages, each of which states that the collection was composed "for music lovers to refresh their spirits." The title page of the so-called Organ Mass adds that the collection was especially composed for connoisseurs. My point is that a literal translation of _Clavier-Uebung_ is misleading and naive.
Is not the same that Scarlatti’s “Essercizi per gravicembalo”?
The word “Essercizi” = “Ubung”?
@@ruperttmls7985 There may be a shade of difference between the English terms "exercises" (essercizi) and "practice" (Übung or Uebung, not Ubung), where the former may put emphasis on variety and the latter on repetition; but where different composers are using different languages, I would not make too fine a point of it. They may well mean the same thing.
A great job! Please let me know who plays and on which organ.
Ya, excuse me!
Performer & Album Info - 1:48:43
Did you transcribe the Chorale BWV 371 to c-minor? I remember that the one in CPE Bach's book is in a minor.
Mi esteemed Gerubach, what's happened with your video BWV 997 ????
1:33:39 !
The singers deviated quite drastically from the instructions.
Hi! Who is the organist playing here?
Yes, please! Who is playing?
Masaaki Suzuki
1:14:16 Chord

5:05
organist please
Masaaki suzuki
1:13:13 Is it just me or does this sound incredibly rushed. Auf tiefer Noth is funeral music. Can't bury the piece fast enough the rendition misses the whole point
There's something wrong with the software you're using to display some of the music. Some of the semibreves (whole notes) are incorrectly shaded, making them look like minims without a stem. Semibreve noteheads are shaded from top left to bottom right, and minims are shaded from bottom right to top left.
It's just a small thing but it's quite off-putting, maybe you should use some different software for future videos.
I think these animations are made from scans, meaning Gerubach has no means of changing the shape of the notes unless he finds a digital version of the pieces and typesets them anew with musescore / lilypond.
Piano Telope shut the hell up
These editions were made from the 1853 edition of the _Bach-Gesellschaft Ausgabe._
