Bach - Little Prelude in F Major bwv927

[deandeblock]

Hi lads,


I am slowly starting practicing again after a busy holiday season.


This prelude is a work in progress. Still not fully convinced of the sound I am creating:

Hey, it's good! I like it!

[deandeblock]

  Thx

just got a reply from my teacher, she thinks it's horrible!


Just gonna leave this damned piece for a while now

is she telling you to lighten up your LH?  shape the phrases with a bit more dynamic range? it is much improved over the first recording, no doubt.  I like your playing and I am not just saying that for your beautiful comments on the other thread... although that was great.

it just does not sound like you enjoy playing this one.  Not to say you don't enjoy this piece...

Hey thanks for your comment. Well, to be honest I am quite frustrated with this piece.

Here is one version I really like

It's really energetic and lively but still very beautiful. I don't know how I should achieve this kind of playing as even my teacher can't even put her finger on what I am doing wrong :s

then I think maybe you should leave this one alone for a while.   Just take a little break.   You will forget some of the frustration and you may find that you have a lot more control if you just give it a week or two.

that is a nice version.
