Does anyone know how to get YouTube to sync the sound to the video properly?  Every time I upload a vid to that site it gets out of sync just like this vid is...

Now seriosly,  there are some point on playing Bach that you should notice.

Itīs nice that you play it very even, and controled. You already got the notes, thatīs half the way, but theres is a hole bunch of stuff that you must work yet in this piece:)

Along with the ornaments that are very good to help developing our technique, you could use some dinamics to. I listen the hole piece going mf. You can show phrasing better using some crescendos, and making it softer towards the end of each phase.

Also itīs important to breath, so break each theme consecutively playng non legatto when one stop and the other beggins.  I have an urtext edition, with a revision by pestalozza, where he added some little dashes to identify the phrases. your teacher might help you identifing where the themes are.

Another important thing: in Bach inventions the hole idea is about showing these themes, going from RH to LH, so you can learn to "sing" diferent voices, using both hands. Thats the most impostant thing at all. I donīt see it in your playing, its like, every thing is the same.

I would also, play the 8th notes non legato, in order to make them diferent from the 16th notes. Thatīs going to hlep you make the themes more clear to.

You now, the idea, is to articulate the phrases, to show the themes very clearly, using some mechanisms to do it. showing the themes going from one hand to the other, showing the progressions. Donīt playng it mechanicaly, just the notes. bring it some more life ;)

Hope it helps!
waiting to see your progress here in the future.
