[gtrfgtrfgtrfgtrf]

What is the song you played to??

[realwoz2]

Very long introduction .. but fast forward to 3:55 to get to the very interesting approach...

[LeChat084]

Nice idea to get the dancing mood when playing !

Kisses from France !

[jolandamusic]

Very creative approach! I adored it!

[TheBranquignol]

Please, can you play for us all this tune in a Ian Anderson's style ?

It will sound great, no ?

Love & support from France :-)

[DonnaRiben]

Nina I just found you ! truly inspiring.. I am a mature student in England studying under the "established" olde worlde British music establishment.... your teaching is truly "out of the box" incredibly brave and incredibly "right" thank you for your considerable time making these incredible videos......

PS: move to the UK !!!!

[fluteloose]

Wow... very enlightening, thank you! The whole partita is my favourite classical piece for flute! =D I've always considered Bach to be absolutely danceable... He was such a visionary in so many ways! And we do need more "non-tradicional" approaches, as you say! Well done!

[flowertjeO]

I really like the melody :)

[rabbiblake]

You are a gifted teacher.  Thank you.

Shabbat Shalom!

Man! You really know how to convey your ideas and inspirations. I just wonder - how many people could have pulled this off?

[ccsclow]

can i ask for the sheet music of the piece?

[BlackRaven87]

Thanks for this. That is so cool.

[dolceflutist]

Thank you/ I really enjoy your version of interpretation.

[yjloiselle]

Nina, that was the most thrilling (and educational) video I've seen from you. As a French-Canadian singer/songwriter- and having opened for Barachois in Alberta, Canada- I am honoured that you would use such a descriptor to draw out the groove from Bach's "dance" music.

Thank you, thank you!

[etherberg]

Nina, that' s great!

Thanks, your THE master!

[kaduflutist]

Thank you, Nina!

It was a nice thing you shared with us. I'm so glad you're not ashamed of showing it to a worldwide audience. Your tips are always welcome!

Have a great season!

[kfunk01]

Okay that is so cool... I have taken a tin whistle and made my own melody with music similar to that... But now I want to go take out a couple Bach pieces and try that out... Neat!

[joethemusician]

This is such a great practice technique. I think I am going to do this with some of my students this week.

[tubonianflute]

Wow that's a brillant and unique idea, lol. And it looks fun!!!

[flauto2]

Bach and Barachois...a great match!

Send your video to Chuck and Albert, brothers

and Albert an ex-Barachois member.

They also are a performing duo.

[ninaflute]

flauto2: Thanks, I just sent them a message!

[strav12]

Superb - really do need to look up Frank Zappa's edit compositions on Sheik Yerbouti and how he put the triple instrumental album 'Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar' together - there is a world of composition and performance here.............

[Rsmith19756]

Thnx so much for the videos on THe ABch Partita in A minor, Movement 4. I'm playing around with adding trills and turns or gruppetos in my style, but it's very difficult.

[BenChanViolin]

DANCE, DANCE! Very enlightening video, Nina- thank you! I completely agree with capturing the energy of a Bach piece. I still think that my self-incriminating video was much more embarrassing than yours :-)

[ImkeFlute]

yes, yes, yes! :) alright. that's what i'm telling my students every day. sing & dance. ;) they are often laughing about it, but maybe in some years they will understand what i mean....

wow. what a good idea, playing with the bach bouree and the music on your ipod. :) great.

yeah! party!!! :)

i'm afraid, i have to overthink my work. ;)

[onimotoko]

very interesting! never thought of playing like this!

[moonsister83]

This is fantastic!! I definately gonna check out this group!! Ur amazing as always!

[m0byby12]

dance like beyonce Xd never knew u had such personality XD very interesting XD

[NicaFlute]

you are awesome!

[Rodier1128]

Nina has a big Ipod. I can imagine the ammount of music she has!! Lol.

Thanks for this. Did Ian Anderson derive his Borree from this piece. I want to learn the original before I do the jazzy Ian Version.

[snufkin789]

no, this one is the bourree anglais in a minor from one of bach's partitas. the bouree Ian Anderson is playing is from a lute suite, originally i e minor.

[Baggs4299]

Ian Anderson's Bourree

Jethro Tull: Bourree (07/09/2005)

Derived from this following piece

Search YouTube for>

Bach: Bourree in e-minor

From a Lute Suite BWV 996.

[Rodier1128]

thanks, specifically, I was looking for sheet music. Preferably from a free public domain, but If i cant i can buy it from our close-enough-to-be local music store. They have everything. I currently do own the Ian anderson version.

[Baggs4299]

Just to be clear....

This Bourrée Anglaise is the 4th mvt. from BWV 1013

The Ian Anderson Bourrée is the 5th mvt of BWV 996

They are two different dance movements that are both basically called a Bourrée.

[jprush]

I love Barachois! You might want to check out the group Lunasa. They are from Ireland and play some really great stuff!

[xNefarious]

Nice :)
