What a shame your Bach is cut short. The beginning sounds a little bit mechanical, but then from about 2:45 you suddenly show us what Bach's 2-part voicing is all about (did you know that this Prelude is, in fact, a strict 2-part invention?). I would love to hear you play the rest.
You handle yourself beautifully against the inept interviewer. Well done. Not at all your fault that her questions are close to meaningless. She could have asked how you practice or how you handle performances, etc.
@gerardbedecarter Thanks very much! They recorded a lot longer interview and the entire I. Movement of the Bach English Suite, but then had to cut it to make it fit into their three minute timeframe.
