    In this recording I used the 4th harmonic pedal in resonance position only. The harmonic pedal was invented by Denis de La Rochefordière.

    One of my favorite preludes in WTC. Puts me in the state of being of water.

    Every time I listen to Bach, I just can't help but marvel at the sheer genius of his mind. You play it with skill, and thanks for sharing your talents with us.

    Paul, Youre honestly great inspiration to a fellow piano player. Just seeing how your hands move under the pieces you play help give me great insight on what ive been looking for. Just starting out piano at 18 y/o is a daunting task, but i make efforts for at least 2 hours a day to start to perfect myself not only techincally, but musically as well. A shame i didnt start piano when i had the chance almost 10 years ago, but better now than never🤷🏾‍♂️. 5 stars for you Paul.❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️

    Beautiful, thank you. Since watching your videos, I am converted to the concept of the Harmonic Pedal. Somewhat the opposite of the Sostenuto pedal, to my (uneducated) mind, it makes more sense and seems much more readily useful, than the Sostenuto pedal.

    Hey, Tritone: If you're still at it ( the piano, I mean ). Lots give up prematurely. Practice all the keys, scales, both hands, parallel motion. Then, contrary motion. Every day, all of them. Then, in chords, same way in opposite, hands: solid chords and broken. Afterwards you'll have no trouble playing in any key. Your fingers will know what your mind has drilled into them. But, especially the three versions of the minor keys: Natural, Harmonic and Melodic; check canceling the seventh when descending. The 7th raised ascending. Lowered descending. You'll get it.

    excellent performance. I like how you play almost every 8th note with very sharp staccato, definitely what Bach intended. too many performers of Bach nowadays legato every note as if they were pedalling a romantic era piece

  • @SPscorevideos
    @SPscorevideos 6 лет назад +4

    Does someone know the story of the source from this prelude? There are like 3-4 slighty different versions of it, it looks like every single copyst made up a personal interpretation of what seen in manuscript...

    • @jacklevinson1
      @jacklevinson1 6 лет назад +1

      Stefano Paparozzi your best bet is to find an urtext edition (i.e. Henle) which takes directly from the manuscript

    • @SPscorevideos

      Jack, I found it! Just search "Andreas Bach Book" on Google, you'll find it.
      And the B is flat as in the Bach-Gesellschaft Ausgabe versione used in this video. :)

  • @paulfievet9301
    @paulfievet9301 6 лет назад +16

    Very beautiful ! But on bar 24 (1:31) of the prelude, you play a g natural instead of a g sharp. It’s a small mistake but it totally changes the tension of the end of the phrase (g sharp to f double sharp) and the harmonic atmosphere. Looking forward to hearing the other 2nd book’s pieces !

    • @legostory33
      @legostory33 5 лет назад

      why would someone critique on a youtube comment, like you found a single mistake , congratulations. It just sounds ill intended. "Yeah youre a decent player, but you made a mistake there"

    • @paulfievet9301
      @paulfievet9301 5 лет назад +9

      InTheNameOfFate Everyone makes mistakes. The best pianists in the world make mistakes. My point is that some of them are more important than others and you should point out the ones which can directly affect your hearing and vision of a piece. Never intended my remark in a negative way, unlike you.

    • @peterwalker738
      @peterwalker738 5 лет назад

      E Rautavaara I haven’t seen that video but there are sometimes variation from edition to edition. These pieces were first published more than 50 years after Bach’s death. Early copies were written longhand, often by his students, copied from the original.

    • @DanielCallejasSevilla
      @DanielCallejasSevilla 5 лет назад +1

      I agree, this changes the tension. I'm used to the Glenn Gould recording (g sharp like in the score of this video) and this recording here immediately sounded different.

    • @MR-si2xx
      @MR-si2xx 5 лет назад

      I agree - it's not nitpicking - perhaps the pianist was using a "Sonder-Edition" (yet the accompanying score suggests otherwise). This piece works with carryover harmonic tones and the g-sharp makes more sense.

  • @horatiohornblower868
    @horatiohornblower868 Год назад

    The prelude and fugue number III from Das wohltemperierte Klavier is written in C sharp (seven sharps) but is also often published in D flat (five flats). In terms of sound, this makes no difference due to the equal temperament.

  • @arthurhogan2133
    @arthurhogan2133 4 года назад

    @Tritone: More, specifically in A Minor, book one; the Fugue!!! Try to handle it up to speed, like Mr. Gould. It will kick your butt. Even Richter doesn't play it that fast. And it should be played THAT FAST. Gnarly as it is to handle, it's the only way you'll feel rewarded after its learned.

  • @paulbyrnesrmt2929
    @paulbyrnesrmt2929 2 года назад

    Love your work Paul. Question as I'm learning it too. In bar 8, 4th beat, you play a G# but there was a G ## (double sharp) at start of the bar? There is no natural symbol or natural with a sharp courtesy symbol. I had a listen to Andras Schiff's recording and I think he plays the G##. Usually wouldn't comment but every note is so important with Bach. He knew what he wanted

    • @phillipbrandel7932
      @phillipbrandel7932 2 года назад

      The G#(#) is just functioning as an ornament on the A#. So whether you play it G## or G# the harmony and voice leading remain essentially unchanged.
