Bach Prelude&Fugue Pedal

on: June 15, 2005, 01:39:39 PM

Dry = no noticeable pedal

Damp = noticeable pedal

I prefer my Bach on the dry side. I've heard some versions where the pianist used lots of pedale and it sounded a bit out of place.

well i do use a little bit of pedal. not too much, but to say that you should play it like one plays a harsichord is ridiculous. You're playing a PIANO. that's all there is to it.
