@fishyflappers What do Asians have to do with anything? We're talking about vestiges of Western glory here...

[Gloinnlight]

Sadly, I actually play piano. I've mastered pieces such as the Rachmaninoff prelude in C# minor. I just felt like trolling some noobs. aww 3 dislikes.

[madmusic22]

@briannAHHH7 this prelude isn't a show off piece at all... it's not overly difficult!! and put the meaning in the piece when you play it if you want to. just because you can't see the meaning doesn't mean it isn't there....

[briannAHHH7]

This is a all-round shit song. No feeling, no meaning. Songs like this are for show offs who play to impress other people rather than because they love it. I can't believe I have to fucking learn it :(((

[MisterYoupinet]

@briannAHHH7 Later, when you'll be more mature, maybe you 'll understand ;). bach isn't show off, bach is soul's music.

[ImCalebRosengard]

@briannAHHH7 I can't believe you acctually said that

[QueryMeThis]

@briannAHHH7 Learning this will make you a better player. Thus, you'll be able to more effectively play those styles which you DO love playing. Plus, once you can play it smokin' fast...it's rather a funny way of sayin' "raise up off my chops, bitch."

[QueryMeThis]

@briannAHHH7 And plus...it'll teach you a lot about how lyric the left hand can, and should be.

[connie3112]

@briannAHHH7 Of course you feel this way because you have no heart for such a glorious piece! I am ten and learning this! It's hard, but if you love the music it's easier.

[hbmp88]

@briannAHHH7 really when you mature musically, it will be your life... trust me, and stop hating it. you will see truly how musically genius multiple voices can be... its also about religion too. bach was extremely religious and his music reflects that. its truly beautiful... you will see

@Gloinnlight FUCK YOU

[MrAnhNguyen]

@Gloinnlight Is it me or am i the only one noticing the satirical-ism in your comment? Whether accidental or intentional, you are making sport and mockery of the narrow minded and arrogant individuals like your pretentious self, and with that, we music appreciates give you our sincere gratitude :)

[tootintrumpet]

I played this for my trumpet exam a few years ago ... I became a human metronome! Wish I could play it on the piano though!!

[kinkajoes]

some of his pieces are just the most addictive thing I have ever experienced in my life.

@Gloinnlight you just showed your lack of culture

[th1nker21]

@Gloinnlight it doesent burn anyone from us... the thing that you have never heard classical music burns you and your culture not us.....

[Esperu2008]

@Gloinnlight fuck you

[chantipanda123]

@Gloinnlight Youre a jerk ! I doubt you can even play one note so its your loss if you have no taste in music

[Ianthe22]

@Gloinnlight Kindda funny character you are:D. A bit pityful. I encourage you to do it on all piano videos!! You could become a legend. Do it! At least show some dedication. No one will remember you for this one little comment.

[Darkboy2525]

@Gloinnlight Do you think a reaction of you can even hurt Bach it self a little ? haha Bach is soo huge, and he is the master, you are just a little little little little magot in his eyes, and Gulda would love to hear why you don't like it ... tell us that, because a dislike without a opinion is nothing... but well ... sadly we have to see you are just nothing. so go fool somewhere else mr,

[JonTheDane]

@Gloinnlight Lol that made me laugh

[Mikematerno]

Great interpretation,

[luzkiki]

FAntastic!

[codycrowder]

okay, this song is being played on the piano. Originally written for the harpsichord, why don't we take advantage of this modern instrument, and use dynamics, this is way to black and white for me

[sebustienus]

the prelude is played a bit too fast, you can't really enjoy what Bach wrote, at least that's my opinion. and there's nowhere written to play staccato in the fugue ...

[more4fats]

Ahh the Well Tempered Clav. If there is a book written in the history of music capable of building more patience, presicion and technique, while inflicting a higher level of personal torment upon me, I want to see it.

[Pianoviolinflute]

wonderful playing

[Liptonical]

very brilliant

[aslanbc]

I love the additional ornaments. They're very tasteful and give the piece some real character.

[AhhThatGuy]

Does anyone know what type of piano this is?

[rainbowfeather]

Awesome...I lovedyour expression...your personality shines during the piece...

[jacomijn2009]

The lightness is amazing !!! tokketokke tokketok, beautiful

[Ant2101]

Wow!! This a brilliant piece =) lovely playing.

[beethomozart]

Gulda a great pianist and very peculiar in his way of conducting and performing at his instrument many a times, here with the prelude and fugue no.6 from the book no.1 from the WTC

[moglis07]

he is playing too much staccato in the fuge. his version is different to richter's.

[qw3rtydud3]

amazing piece thank you :)

[94wang55]

Fantastic!!!!!I love it so much!!!!

[Concinnitech]
