Bach - Fantaisie BWV 906 [VIDEO]
on: July 24, 2009, 09:43:01 PM
and Here it is
I grabbed it from my practice today. As usual, the treble from my mic sounds a bit strong...
Any comments/critiques/advice?
I've got more from today's practice that should be up later.
Thank you.

Hi kard
That was a wonderful performance, the different parts of both hands were very clear. And by the way, this was the first time I heard this piece so thank you for this wonderful piece.
.
However, (as you said) you do have some wrong notes and unclear passages sometimes, and also your dynamic range can be a bit wider. Both of these problems can be fixed once you memorize this piece. So keep on practicing and I hope to hear your better performance real soon

It's already quite good, but still needs a lot of work - I'm sure you can do it.
Generally, besides clarity etc. I would say it's a little flat the way you play it, should have more contrasts. The tempo while consistent sometimes feels unsure. Then try to seperate the main 2 parts that consist it - different touche and sound. Then also notice the tonality C minor, the minor par excelance, I feel it a little darker, there is a dance quality in it but maybe more solemn, more powerfull, I think you feel it too Scarlatian if you know what I mean...
Then again that's personal opinion.
Keep up the good work.

so the issues are:
tempo - i could hear this one on playback lol...it was a bit rushed sometimes. usually my main focus is on working with the feel of the triplets. for that performance though, i ended up focusing more on the hand and keeping control. obviously i lost it at times.
dynamics - thats an interesting point. and as im writing, im realising i never followed up on the first video i posted, which also got similar responses. so its definitely an issue so ill make a better effort as far as dynamics goes this time around.
how would that play out in Bach's music though?
contrasts - what would you suggest? maybe changing the shape of the phrases? doing something other than the sharp entry of those descending lines?
lastly, i wouldn't mind a Scarlattian feel
. one of my favorites. ill take in what you're saying though.
the rest of the selections will be here later. i guess i had more work left for me than i thought. thanks guys
