In every single KZread video ever where there is a comment that makes a joke like this, there's always at least a few replies that take it seriously

I'll tell you a trick to this piece how most German pianists teach it. For the Prelude... You use your fifth fingers as pedals, while holding those top notes... only with fingers 5. The harmonies sing that way. Also, the very last note, do a small trill playing E natural, F, E natural and hold it with a pedal at a softness of p. For the Fugue. Live and breathe the voice' theme. Familiarize yourself with each voice by actually taking staff paper, and composing out the voices yourself. And that is how many strict German pianists teach their students this Bach piece.

Playing this piece well looks like a great struggle, what did you think? I always was afraid of Bach, even a bit of Mozart, mostly playing pieces like Mendelssohn's, but THIS prelude of Bach (yeah forget about the fugue) looks like once learned a big trouble to maintain; play it correctly all long AND making it sound not dull, adding creativity.

One of the best performances of Bach I've ever heard

Beautiful. This music really opens my very soul. .. Something very magical about this piece, the way the key changes occur during the fugue section stirs me deeply!

This is a very beautiful melody -- the pianist who plays it makes it the most beautiful way I've ever seen and heard.

A renowned work and beautiful performance. Thank you so very much for sharing.

my favorite performance of this prelude. i feel like this tempo is perfect; love the smorzando done when going to the presto and the smooth transition to the adagio! i feel like most pianist play all the piece in a allegro-presto dynamic and the difference between parts is hardly noticed. really good work !!

Paul, thank you so much for these WTC uploads!! I've been waiting patiently for these without asking. I still continue to revisit your treatments of GBV, Inventions, and Sinfonias. Bach sounds so lovely on that Feurich and without doubt, beautifully played. Keep going if time permits. Thank you for your selfless contributions to this community. Cheers and Happy New Year to you and your family. -Stephen

The presto movement of this prelude gets me every time! So happy you're uploading stuff from the WTC. I just started learning the 48 by Bach using the progressive order of difficulty that Bartok used to teach with. So it's perfect timing!

You have incredible control over this instrument. Beautiful piece, well done

outstanding performance! for me, J.S.B is the pinnacle of what the human brain is capable of. To create such a thing from nothing truly is miraculous

My teacher always insisted that each note should be played as staccato,exactly the way you're playing it. I imagine this piece being played in a more agile way. Hearing the notes played in a legato manner makes me think about a boiling soup,while each note should be perceived like putting pearls on a thread to make a necklace,lol. That'd be my way of seeing it. English isn't my first language so I may not have expressed my thoughts accurate enough,but you probably got the point. Piano isn't my first instrument either.I specialised in violin The piano was mandatory so I had to study it.

The thing is, this is baroque music. This wasn't meant for a piano. It was meant for a hapsichord. And if you ever heard that instrument, you might have noticed that the sound dies quickly. I think this guy ( and your teacher ) is trying to mimic the sound of a hapsichord by doing staccato. That makes complete sence in my eyes, as it was written for a one. But if you prefer legato over history, I mean, that's fine. Who knows, if there was an actual piano in Bach's time, would he make this legato? We can't know. Whatever sounds good to your ears as far as I'm concerned. In the end, it's about how YOU interpret it.

the "slow" tempo makes it incredibly beautiful!

Wow the voicing in the fugue is absolutely out of this world. I am also practising this piece and my god the way you bring out the lowest voice from 2:39 to 2:45 is incredible. This fugue is pure art and to play it well takes a great amount of effort and energy

Those bass runs are just so satisfying

I am currently learning this piece, and I must say that he plays it amazingly

A little advice for the fugue: Sing the main theme and it will be clear to you and to anyone who's listening. Anyway, this performance is stunning!thanks

a totally flawless composition... mind blowing

Thoroughly enjoyed!

I LOVE the way the video is set up!!! It's nice to see the Pianist's hands...it looks so effortless.. but I know, it's not. Bravo! ♥
