Truly my favourite piece of music after the Dorian Toccata. While it is excellently played, I must say that it being played on the piano rather than the harpsichord disgusts me. I commend you highly for your playing but must chastise you for your choice of instrument.
i could definitely hear the polyphony there, i don't know what Blade887 means. despite a few errors/slips, i thought it was very good. hearing this was what made me want to play it. and the starting was so mysterious and burdened,the feeling of bach was captured well. great job.
already the beginning is very unprecise, its not chopin, its bach, it has to be absolutely correct rhythmically. and its boring, there is no phrasing whatsoever. listen to martha argerich playing it, there is a very nice recording for deutsche grammophon.
Is there any chance of finding video of this played on harpsichord? Because it sounds way more beautiful on harpsichord.

Very fine. This playing speaks to me. Is there a bio of this pianist? Is he a student? Professional pianist? I would like to hear more and know more.

Hmmm I would like to hear more Bach's Toccatas, but so far there is only 911 and 916 in youtube. I guess this i s way better than nothing.
P.S. may I ask who is playing?
