Bach-Busoni Chaconne

I'm aware of the imperfections, but I hope you enjoy! I'd love some comments. I wish I played the violin, but this will do. ;)

I was hoping for some responses. I deleted the recording from Box, and re-uploaded it to YouTube

Very impressive performance! Thank you for sharing. :)

Oh my! That was terrific!!!  Any imperfections (I'll take your word that they were there  :P )were only skin deep - the overall performace was stellar.

Have you tried any of the other Bach transcriptions of Busoni? I see on the YT page that you really liked this (and it shows in your performance), so do try and look at some of the others if you get a chance. His transcription of the St Anne prelude and fugue is astonishing.

Thanks for both of the responses :)

Yes, I would love to play the St. Anne Prelude and Fugue arrangement.

I'd also like to play the Piano Concerto, but I don't think that will happen, LOL
