i love your videos absolutely! there are so many musicians, who play bach just way too romantic and don't actually think about the structure of the music. btw could you analyze some fugues of the art of the fugue as they are also both extremely complex and unbelievably beautiful.
I loved your remarks about Bach: every time we sit down to discover a new piece of his, we can't help but exclaim how extraordinary his music is. ❤
Thank you for this video, one of my favourite fugues for sure! There is so much emotional contrast, it explores the entire human being.
The harmonic progression is rich and varied indeed, moving from F minor to related keys like C minor, B-flat major, and D minor. It is a miniature masterpiece-a testament to his contrapuntal skill and emotional sensitivity. Its intricate interplay of voices and harmonic exploration make it a timeless work.
Thank you for the video! Excellent music
I don't know an appropriate place for this report, but "The Box" has arrived, in perfect condition. I'm listening through it. The level of obsessive accuracy does wonders to my neuro-divergent brain. Both Beethoven an Czerny have made an impressive statement with this arrangement.
There is no question that listening to, playing, and understanding music like this makes us better people. We are striving towards something which is almost beyond our ability to comprehend.
I really enjoyed this video !
Just to remember u im so thankfull and i love u ❤❤
You mentioned a composer wishlist at the beginning. Mine is very short: Domenico Scarlatti. Positively no one plays him at the correct speed, there are now competent editions of his work (Fadini is just the latest catastrophe), there have been no competent studies on him since Kirkpatrick's mostly conjectural novel. DS's sonatas, or rather compańeras, were for the most part mispaired. DS more or less stopped composing by 1738, and the official and hurried archiving begun a dozen years later initiated an incomparable allegro di confusione. One can find more correct information about lesser known composers, such as Francisque, Chambonnières, Louis Couperin, Schuyt, Sweelinck or so many others than DS. Love to have your thoughts on some of the less known pieces, not K9, 380, or that silly piece K141 which is not even by DS, but rather such authentic gems as K246 (first compańera of K247), 212 (of which Bartók made an insanely fast, but musically intuitive recording), of the harmonically stunning K260 (not a pair with 259) and the harmonically equally rich 240 or of the compańeras in g, K234 and 196. Scarlatti's music has an extremely haunted quality, alot to with the early Portugues influence. - A few dedicated words by you - such as you dedicated to Bach's fugue in f - could do minor wonders for the great Domenico. He needs a few wonders in his favour, quite a few! What is written about him and how his music is played is a true musical catastrophe. - Thank you for reading.
Wim I think the word you were looking for about the 3rd theme coming in is Redemption :)
Boy, you really are into this darkness thing.
At bar 21 Bach reaches the highest note on his clavichord in the countersubject, then at bar 48 he balances that by reaching the high C in the subject. Just another interesting observation I obtained while studying the score of this fugue.
I play the prelude and fugue in F minor on the piano and wrote a transcription for string quartet. I tried to play it with you while watching the video, but my piano was not in tune with your clavicord....
