Just discovered this, looks great, been working on this piece for a few weeks, like many others (I hope - please let it not be just me...) I'm finding the dexterity a challenge. Recently found that concentrating on the musical line makes the fingers follow. Also, trying not to get bogged, yes, I practice a problem section for a while, but then play without stopping. I also try not to always begin from the same spot. Playing staccato helps, I also sometimes have fun swinging the notes (I'm old enough to do what I like, or what I'm able) Easier said than done... Thanks for the video 🙏🙏
wow...bravo. Such an inspiring and totally brilliant lesson. really hope I get even to medium level tempo....I would be more than happy. I m finding it very hard indeed but this video will certainly help motivate me. Very much appreciated!
I don’t know why I have so much trouble getting this piece up to tempo. I just always get slightly out of sync on the longer runs when the two hands descend together in time
Do scale and arpeggio drills with both hands moving at once, and slowly increase the tempo. Play what's comfortable at first, then slow it down. Also try staccato while you slowly increase temp. Staccato forces you to be accurate
I could play as fast as your medium and no more. But sometimes when I'm used to doing it fast I find it hard to play it slow again, or maybe one hand, usually left, would be faster than the right hand causing total mayhem.
In case anyone's interested in music for 2 pianos... I've just completed writing arrangements of all of Bach's 2 part inventions. One piano part remains as Bach's original, whilst the other plays a new additional piano part. Available via my website: www.simonpeberdymusic.com
Thank you very much for that lesson :) As I'm learning by myself I was asking about that same F played by both thumbs in the same time on 4th bar - what is exactly your move ? Which is the active finger ?
I love this video! love watching you/hearing it in ALL 3 speeds (this amazing piece of "mathematical" beauty🎶 by j.s.bach! ) ***A Perfectly Elegant teaching video!
hey david I have a question, I used to play hanon exercises on my technique practice every day, do you think it's better to switch the hanon for bach inventions? thank you
Hanon is a very good book. It has many exercises to make your fingers better on many categories. As Educator said do both Hanon and Bach. Bach has a very good technique on his books. So you should play the two part inventions. I also suggest you to play the Anna Magdalena book and the Small Preludes and Fouges. Both of them made by Bach.
Most people don't play it staccato when it says to do so, but here it says not to play staccato in the first few notes yet it's played staccato. It looks like there is no staccato or dynamics in this video. Weird.
Why your rhytm is beat per quadruplets instead of semibreves? This is not teaching, this is ruining possible career of a beginner. Any musician -ESPECİALLY- pianist, has to know how to count properly according to the time signature.
I think the fingering is great! I own this book and he does exactly what the book says. I also play baroque flute, you should see the sheet music, it's terrible 😂 Most of it is handwritten, the bars aren't straight, there are extra dots everywhere because of copying the pieces too many times... This is actually pretty clean sheet music in terms of baroque music.

I have been looking for this song for 34 years!
Bro I can guarantee you’re twelve
If you continue to search classical music pieces as "songs", I am sorry but you need to wait for another 34 years.
oop- OOF!!!
You mean “ this piece”
Oh I was playing this when I was 8 sound good after all this Years
I wish i could play as fast as your "medium."
locomojoboy2 his medium is literally the normal speed
i cant even play as fast as his ‘play along’
@@Nalikaplook SAMEEEEE😭

excellent. thank you so much!
Nice ! Going to learn it right now
Extremely helpful. Thank you very much!
True. My teacher has given me homework to play the last part BY MY OWN. But with this, it only takes me a few minutes and, voila, all finished.
Fabuleux ! 🤩
That's the piece Arthur had to play for Dr. Fugue in the Arthur episode Arthur Plays the Blues.

Try tempo 100 The 108-116 its too fast
OR BELOW
Amazing!
Wow superr, thank you 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Great video
So cool!

I wish the "performance" was slower with more musical interpretation rather than rushing through

Thank you! 🙏
Nice!
Wow! Big like! Great!👍♥️👍
so cool🥰🥰
감사합니다.
He plays so fast 💨
Yeah
My version is a little bit different but I like how the staccatos sound here!
In baroque pieces staccato symbols would be interpreted as non legato
his stacatos suck because this is a baroque piece......
@@jelenapetrovic9046 Bach didn’t actually write staccatos but the piece has it maybe the editor did it
Nice
😍😍😍😍😍
สุดยอด
fast version is not original tempo ; here true tempo is Between slow and medium but mainly not fast
Hay
hey david I have a question, I used to play hanon exercises on my technique practice every day, do you think it's better to switch the hanon for bach inventions? thank you
from another teacher... keep doing Hanon forever so when you get old, your fingers still work. Great exercise. Do both Bach and Hanon forever.
Hanon is a very good book. It has many exercises to make your fingers better on many categories. As Educator said do both Hanon and Bach. Bach has a very good technique on his books. So you should play the two part inventions. I also suggest you to play the Anna Magdalena book and the Small Preludes and Fouges. Both of them made by Bach.

Easy metode with X2 its like medium
😮
Tandy 1000 RLX music program had this as a sample!
He plays FAST 💨
Yeah 🤩 😮
@@jodyzhou3761 why did you reply to his comment
why you play stacato please ?
its the tradition of the style, 8th notes staccato 16th legato
Most people don't play it staccato when it says to do so, but here it says not to play staccato in the first few notes yet it's played staccato. It looks like there is no staccato or dynamics in this video.
Weird.
@@sapphireenvy It's a tradition for Bach, Handel and one more composer in hundreds of years ago during the uses of Harpsichord.
Come on... it's Bach, really?
I mean, that's what makes it sound special.

@Michael Zhang i just left a bookmark for me and why are people liking this.

This isnt a beginner piece. Its quite tricky in some parts.
Set playback speed to 2x lol
I’m totally not here from Arthur or anything.
What’s up with the thumbnail tho 💀
no dinamics what so ever
Good that you have a 3 different tempos but the sheet music is horrible and the fingering too! Very bad!
I think the fingering is great! I own this book and he does exactly what the book says. I also play baroque flute, you should see the sheet music, it's terrible 😂 Most of it is handwritten, the bars aren't straight, there are extra dots everywhere because of copying the pieces too many times...
This is actually pretty clean sheet music in terms of baroque music.
Yeah, the fingering is perfect, it's exactly how my teachers tell me to do it
