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. :)
No amount of how-to information is going to work if you have the wrong mindset, the wrong guiding philosophies. Avoid losers like the plague, and gather with and learn from winners only.

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
