Little Prelude in C Minor, BWV 999 (Slower Version)

I've been messing around with this prelude for the past couple of weeks - above my grade really, but thought I'd post given that I haven't put anything up for a while. This is the slower (blurrier :0)) version that I've just cut after a couple of glasses of wine. Comments, thoughts much appreciated. Be interested to hear how other people think this should be interpreted for the piano, given that it's a lute prelude I think(?)

This is my favourite piece of classical music EVER! I've heard it played once to perfection before by my friend's sister. I've been looking for a slow version on the piano, it's really haunting and gorgeous. Yours is one of the closest! Maybe try a little slower with more pedal? <3

Thank you for your kind comment. I've actually given up piano for a while, but if and when I go back to it, I'll see if I can polish this up a bit. I really like it also - the chordal movements in this piece are amazing, but I guess that's Bach for ya. :0)

If I could play it, this is how I would do it.

I hope you do not stay away from the piano too long. I just got re-started piano after more than 35 years. I was thrilled to come across your uploads which have some great material to inspire me to get going. Thanks!

go back to it and never leave it!!!  you need the piano it is a language everyone knows but few can speak, you have made yourself clear to all. I might suggest too, that you get an accoustic piano. They really become an extension of yourself.
