JS Bach Prelude and Fugue XVIII in G-sharp minor

[Vampiresss8]

could someone analyze this piece by mid august? history,countepoint,the musical form,harmony anything.i would be very gratefull

[metteholm75]

I agree with the others, - a little less pedal, - but keep that deep, relaxed breathing of the music. It works wonderfully.

get off the pedal!!!!

[bigbrotherbp]

Thanks!

I don't know why you break legato so often in the fugue, but overall, a good performance!

[veljac84]

Hey,great job! but too much legato and pedal... amyway,I admire your hands being so wonderfully relaxed.

[BachScholar]

This is good playing technically, but it's stylistically strange. I think the prelude could be more delicate with less pedal and the fugue could be more playful and less legato. Try this and see what you think.

I really mind the pedal, the rest is just cool!

Im learning it now,and I fucking cant get it into my head,its the first 4 voiced fuga I learn though(or however you say it in English)

[MoonShaddows]

Hey, we played at the same masterclass about a month ago, I played the Beethoven Opus 10.3.
