New Bach Video Fugue n 8 in E-Flat Minor, BWV 853 Pianoteq

[carmelopaolucci]

Dear Friends,

I'm publish this piece to continue my dream of recording the entire Well Tempered Clavier,to achieve this feat, I didn't choose a famous acoustic piano, but simple entry-level digital piano, because I'm convinced that even with "cheap equipment" but with a lot of good will, it's possible to overcome the difficulties and achieve appreciable results on a collection that often makes even professional pianists tremble.
The fugue (à 3) is possessed of the same earnest mood, but it is milder, softer, and refrains from all sharply marked rhythm or bustling figures, pursuing its course from beginning to end in quiet crotchet and quaver movement. This fugue is noble, deeply pensive , breathing so fully the spirit of the tonality. The theme was not shaped in order to allow of many combinations; rather did the mystic character of the key compel the master to display the fullest wealth of his art; and thus the workmanship became unusually profound. As a matter of fact the Eb- minor fugue became, as we are about to show in detail, a wonder-work of contrapuntal art.
It was really fun to study it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Greetings from Italy
