Books/info on how to play/teach Bach's music

[rebecca]

Can any one of you advise books or information on how to play or teach Bach's music?  For example, how to phrase or when to detach the notes.  I live in Southern California.  If you know someone who is expert in Bach's music, please let me know too.  Thanks...

I just uploaded a copy of Rosalyn Tureck's 3-volume series "An Introduction to the Performance of Bach."  You can find it here:

You will need a Bit Torrent Client to download it.  You can find one here:

bach didnt write anything on his notes (books), he didnt write dynamics, ffs, pps, phrases, so if u find a book that tells u how to play or teach his playing would be just an opinion or how a person thinks it should be play, or a way to

Richard Troeger's Playing Bach on the Keyboard (I think that's the title) is excellent; very readable. He includes playing Bach on the modern piano.

Worst first post ever.

[emmas_dad]

Could you please explain why?

[thierry13]

Could you please explain why?

Because it was blank, useless, and bumped a 4 year old thread.

I provided the name of a very good book; I saw no reason to elaborate. Yes, it's an old thread, but people (such as myself) will still read it looking for answers.

I don't understand why I deserve to be insulted for trying to be helpful.

No one was insulting you, the comment was aimed at the guy who posted a blank quote  (cobitron i think his name is) in a thread that was 4 years old just to bring it to the top of the board. Your post was great and I'm sure helpful to anyone interested in the topic, no one was aiming anything towards you.

OK. Sorry. I'm new to this forum business. Forgive my lack of experience in reading the posts.

Well since we're here, Angela Hewitt has a DVD about Bach performance.  Sounded interesting when I heard her being interviewed on the radio so I've got one coming in the mail.
