(VIDEO) Bach Prelude & Fugue no.2 WTC II BWV 871

Hi,

Please comment, criticize my performance of this piece.

It was one of the pieces I had studied for the Paris Concorus that I had attended this year.

Regards,

Don't be afraid to play it a bit more free, and maybe a bit slower. And listen to the left hand in the prelude, it's just as important as the right..

That was wonderful Bach.  I liked that very much.  I also listened to the d minor concerto.  You have a particular affinity with this composer, I think.  Perhaps the right hand can lighten up when you want to bring out the left hand - particularly in the prelude.  But all in all it was very fluent, musical, and limpid playing.  Bravo!
