I am composer & musician. Sometimes I hear or compose classical music in my dream. I enjoy it and listen to it but when I wake up I forgot almost everything expect the enjoyment of the music that came to me in my dream. Does this happen to anyone else too?
One thing I've always wanted to hear, but do not have the skills to play, is a harpsichord solo for this song. I have been looking for one forever! Do you think you could upload this with just the harpsichord? I would love to hear how it sounds and I think it will help me learn it myself!
@JGBaroque Thanks! I see that you're into contemporary baroque composition. I am as well. I take it that you're familiar with Vox Saeculorum? I'm still fairly new to composition so I don't have much real works written yet. I'm currently taking time to study counterpoint and thoroughbass to make sure I have a solid understanding of those things before I proceed to the fun stuff. Currently working on the exercises in Jeppesen's book on modal counterpoint. About half way through.
Excellent interpretation! I can see why you say you "would stay away from the popular recordings of this concerto by pianists such as Glenn Gould or Andras Schiff." Indeed Gould is a speed demon without enthusiasms and Schiff is dry and tasteless.
By the way, not all modern pianists should be avoided. You may want to hear Sviatoslav Richter's performance posted to YouTube by twotea22. Caution: the title says "Bach - Concerto no 1 in re minor - 1st mov", no mention of BWV 1052.
@VERITS99 Gould does have a tendency to play some pieces by Bach ridiculously fast (such as Invention no. 10). My complaint with Gould and Schiff is that with this concerto, they play too slow. But more than just tempo, my main complaint with performers such as Gould is they play too coldly, stiffly, and plainly. Their generation and most classically trained players today are under the mind set that the score is to be taken literally as written.
Gould was under no illusion that the score was to be played as written. That becomes *painfully* evident when you listen to his interpretations of Mozart's piano sonatas.
@colourfulwithaU I'm not familiar with Gould's recordings of Mozart. I'm only familiar with his recordings of Bach. Perhaps Gould isn't the best example of the style of playing I'm referring to. What I'm talking about is what Bruce Haynes calls in "The End of Early Music" modernism (as opposed to romantic, and baroque performance style). Characteristics of this include seamless legato, continuous vibrato, lack of beat hierarchy, unyielding tempos, and nearly mechanical playing of 16th notes.
@VERITS99 But they fail to realize that baroque scores weren't meant to be taken literally. Baroque notation is somewhat like short hand notation. It almost always simply contains the notes to be played but rarely are they notated with how to play them. They expected the performers to know how to properly perform the scores based on tradition but still allowed them a fairly wide degree of interpretative freedom.
You're an excellent player. I wish your MIDI was better, though.
I am signed up to play this piece for a piano competition in December, but I haven't a clue where to start. I rarely play baroque. But I really do want to do this. any advise?
@colourfulwithaU I recommend that you familiarize yourself with performances of baroque music by historically informed orchestras such as Concerto Italiano, Europa Galante or English Concert. They play baroque music in its original style and on original instruments. They play much more passionately and movingly compared to modern classical orchestras. For this concerto, I recommend listening to the performances of Rinaldo Alessandrini or Richard Egarr. You can find both recordings on YouTube.
@colourfulwithaU Even though you're performing on piano, you can bring the style that these performers play in to the piano. I would stay away from the popular recordings of this concerto by pianists such as Glenn Gould or Andras Schiff. The way they play is contradicted by historical evidence.
@colourfulwithaU In terms of keyboard technique in general, baroque music requires a good finger independence and a left hand that is equally as good as your right. If you haven't already, try learning a few of Bach's inventions. Also, I highly recommend the piano finger exercises by Erno Dohnanyi. They're a set of short but very hard exercises that develop finger independence. The thing is that you must play them exactly as written. But be careful to not strain your fingers practicing them.
Sounds like a good time. What do you think of the recording by Trevor Pinnock with the English Concert? That happens to be my favourite interpretation.
@colourfulwithaU I have that one and it was the one I imitated when I performed this one. It's very good too. You also might like Ton Koopman's performance of it too if you can find it. It's not here last I checked. Baroque music allows pretty large degree of individuality and creativity so there are several acceptable ways you can play the music as long as it fits within the basics of the style.
Holy shit. You did that with garageband? Hats off to you my friend, you made a computer program sound like an orchestra. Also, I loved watching some of the faces you made while you were playing this. A look of horror seems to wash over you as Bach's melodies flow from your fingertips.
Sheridan, you should get an Honorary Ph.D. just for doing this. The orchestra is VERY espressive[sic] ...hey email me dude!! evanrommel@yahoo.com; I had been wondering if I could create something for Rachmaninoff #4 [we call it 'Rocky 4 :) ] which I worked on for about three years, so far, including when I lived across the street from NewCollage [ New College] of Florida. Y'know I gotta get a Mac and ditch the PC. Anyway YOU ARE BRILLIANT Sheridan!! Nice Work!!
@graveswill You can find it on IMSLP dot org (can't post the url due to filters). Make sure you don't confuse it for the other simplistic version of this concerto transcribed by CPE Bach which is called "BWV1052a".
Hey dude, that was awesome. I'm trying to learn this right now and it's harder than I thought lol! When you learn pieces like this one, do you learn it all the way through first and then get it up to tempo, or do you practice each bar until it's up to tempo? I was wondering because it usually takes me a long time as as far as getting things up to the speed that I want while still being perfectly clean.
@CapnKeys I find it helpful to break the piece into sections and then learn each section one at a time until it is at a good quality (but not necessarily performance quality yet). You don't have to learn the sections in sequential order. You may find selecting the more difficult sections first to practice to be more efficient. Also, as you're learning each section, try playing the entire piece once through without stopping at least once everyday so you understand how it fits together.
I am very familiar with this piece. It is evident that You HAVE worked very long and diligently to produce such a fine result. Congratulations on your musicianship and focus. I'll bet you learned a lot putting those parts together.
I don't know much about music, but my mother plays some of Bach's music on the piano and I just wondered if the sheet music is the same for the piano and the harpsichord since they both look the same? Could you make a keyboard sound like a harpsichord?
Usually, editors will add phrasing and dynamic information to Bach's keyboard music. All the dynamic and most if not all phrasing information wasn't in the original score written by Bach because you can't play different dynamics on a harpsichord and back in Bach's day, most phrasing was up to the choice and invention of the performer while following some general performance rules. If your keyboard is digital, there's usually a harpsichord sound you can set it to.
Thanks. Have you heard Alessandrini's recording of this concerto? He's the only one I've heard so far that has exploited the fiery, dramatic and flamboyant Italian character of this concerto. Also, Fabio Biondi did a great violin concerto version of it.
@MacLinuxDude Well I haven't heard so many famous recording of this concerto, but I saw a guy here on youtube from Israel how played it very well and I have a nice recording of Bachs harpsichordsconcertos, and the harpsichordist in that recording which I have is called Ivor Bolton. And I have heard your version. I also but some cheep sheetmusic in my local sheetmusicstore. Its hard! :P
Alessandrini's recording isn't very famous. It's similar to Trevor Pinnock's. You can find it on YouTube. Search for "alessandrini harpsichord concerto".
It was great to actually see you play the no. 1 in D Minor. I can't even remember the main melodic line. I can't imagine someone playing the other orchestral parts.
I would like to hear more the Cello and the Bass on the orchestra though. My favorite versions of this concerto have a bold "menace" of the lower voices.
That is just beautiful!! You should get some kind of award for this. We plugged you into our 42" TV to watch and listen in surround sound. Awesome!! Thank you for all your hard work.
In this recording, I recorded the harpsichord part in Garageband along with a recording of the orchestra that I imported into Garageband that I originally recorded in Finale. For the first cadenza to allow for rubato I recorded my self playing just the cadenza before the final recording and then I edited the orchestra part to start playing again at the end of the cadenza that I recorded and I used this recording as a guide during the final performance.
The orchestra in Finale sounds this good? I'm impressed, the version of the program my friends used to use just had the built in computer midi sounds.
Also, great playing, that was really enjoyable to watch and listen to. Thanks for uploading :)
Fabulous! Brings a tear to my eye. I love Bach and play it on the piano and my old Z-Box Harpsichord, but I doubt I'll ever play it like this on my Axiom 61! BRAVO!
Instant J.S.Bach seal of approval. The sound quality, as well as the musicianship, is equal or better than a number of professional recordings using costly period instruments played by the best musicians who have centuries of experience amongst themselves. Thank you.
Sheridan, you really nailed it here, man. This is one of my favorite pieces, and I know how hard it is, especially when you're doing all the parts. It's quite clear how much time and effort you put into it, because it shows. Beautifully done! Hopefully, there's more where this came from.

Sheridan, you really nailed it here, man. This is one of my favorite pieces, and I know how hard it is, especially when you're doing all the parts. It's quite clear how much time and effort you put into it, because it shows. Beautifully done! Hopefully, there's more where this came from.
