Das war eine fantastische Leistung vielen herzlichen Dank dafür. Ich habe das so oft auf der Orgel gespielt, aber bei dir hört es sich ganz neu an. Herzlichen glückwunsch aus Schweden. Rasmus aus Schweden 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🎹💯🥇
Isso é muito mais lindo do que eu lembrava. Quando escuto as variações de Goldberg inteira, não noto como esna variação em específico é celestial. Vou estuda-la!
I've heard it said that the pianoforte allows for more expression due to the dynamics of the instrument. There is certainly truth to this, but I think that the lack of such a possibility with the harpsichord actually lent itself to the harmonic and melodic depth of baroque music.
Thanks! Please, take a look on my (long) reply to one of the other comments below (or above, I don't know). I try to explain why I chose that fingering.
I notice you do a lot of 1-1 and 5-5 fingerings rather than 1-2-1 patterns where the hand turns. I'm impressed how fluid is sounds but is there a reason for this?
Thank you for your comment! Of course, there is a reason: It’s all about the understanding of music and aiming keyboard technique at making music sound more natural (and above all not vice versa, i.e. adapting music at the technique). Historically, instrumental music developed from singing. Therefore, the logic how the latter works (phrases, caesuras, melodies, breaths, etc.) can be also largely used for understanding the former. In comparison to, say, flutists or singers, however, keyboardists develop a technique which is, from this point of view, quite unnatural and mechanical: Hands and fingers don't need to breathe, and you may theoretically play through a whole piece of music by chaining all notes with 1-2-1, 1-2-3-1, etc. fingering, without even the need of taking the fingers off the keys. Yet, this eventually leads to the fact that keyboard technique, differently from the technique of other instruments, happens to be rather an obstacle than a help for understanding music and making it sound “humanly” natural, with necessary breaths and so on. So, the reason why I tend not to “take advantage” from apparently more logical and technically direct solutions like 1-2-1 is that I try to find instead alternative solutions where technique helps me automatically making music sound more natural, as I were to sing it with my lungs. (Obviously, I avoid unnatural fingerings or technically wrong solutions, as this may undermine a clean and stable performance). In this case, making the arpeggios that way helped in obtaining this effect. Of course there are other (better) solutions and today I would maybe use still another one. This time, it was just a choice where to put those (by the fingering automatically produced) micro-breaths. Finally, there is also the philological problem of conforming to early fingering styles (which were partly also conceived for making music natural), but this is actually a too big topic for a RUclips comment!
Hey please, can you to make a try playing Gavota-Chôro by Heitor Villa-Lobos on the harpsichord instead of the guitar...? I like so much of the guitar sound, but this is an evocative piece of the baroque and Bach music. I only had listened in MIDI, but not in a real acoustic instrumente. What do you thing abou it? ruclips.net/video/eKwVI4y2ldY/видео.html

Only a genius could write it, only a genius could perform it. Thank you both ❤️
Thank you very much!
Your ornamentation is excellent!
var.1 is so nostalgic for me as my dad would always play it when i was very little
edit: u play very well too!

Fantastic! Great played ❤️🎶🎵
Lovely instrument, terrific playing and of course-Bach!
That was incredibly good!
Great performance!
Superb performance. Great choices of ornamentations :) You’ve gained a sub.
Thank you very much!

Beautiful. I like harpsichord
Complimenti e bellissimo clavicembalo.
Grazie!
LOVE IT!!!
One genius can write it and play it and a good player can play it. Wollte ich nur mal so los werden:)
Complimenti!!!
Wonderful!!!

I never thought about fingering that right hand arpeggio in m. 9 et al. 1-1. Seems very easy for you; I might try that.

Brava.
🖤
Enjoyed that.Ta.
i love these variations. Could listen to you all day.
Btw, That’s not a virginal?
Thanks! No, this is a harpsichord
Bravo! Il clavicembalo é ben fatto? Dal suono sembra di si
Who's handwriting is that in the score? It doesn't look like Bach's handwriting from what I've seen. Also, great performance.
Thanks. This is from Balthasar Schmid's first edition
do all of them plss, mr nerd
I'll do!
