This guy is gifted,talk about bringing the spirit of Bach back

Ah, this is the only performance of this work on YouTube I've heard that I'd give the tick to. This guy has got it. Manuals coming over too legato, though: this may be due to the recording/acoustics. Either adjust your playing so it's *too* detached from where you are (so it's good for the mike), or experiment with the mike location. Aim for crispness in the semiquavers. (Watch the redundant body-movement.) WELL DONE INDEED. I've looked you up on Wikipedia.

This is a brilliant performance of one of Bach's greatest works. I have heard so many performances of this over many years, and it is rare to hear someone who captures the emotional and structural spectrum of the work so completely. These 'concerto' preludes (c.f. the B minor bwv544 and the C minor bwv546) are, I think, amongst some of Bach's most beautiful output. Many thanks for such a majestic performance.

1. Gute Artikulation der Pedalstimme - ein sprechender, mitunter singender Bass. Die Stimme hat Bewegung und ist nicht einfach die Unterlage für die übrigen Stimmen. So entsteht für den Hörer eine gewisse Transparenz. -

2. Leider ist die Gestaltung der übrigen Stimmen und deren Klangfarben etwas gleichförmig.

Many greetings from Berlin (Germany).
