  • I agree, for 1,5 year it's quite good. I have the same piece as you play, but when I try to look it up through the browser, it can't find it...although I have it in "My Videos". Maybe you can help me?

  • i can see your clip!

    it seems that you already found the way:]]] bravo!!!^^

  • Sorry! I didn't knew that you're just playing organ since an year and half ago. In this case, I must give my congratulations, because you're going pretty well so far. The fugue is more complicated. On the last page, you have to articulate both hands with both feet and...it's a bit more laborious...So, you have problems with your pedal tecnique...I know a book which has a lot of pedal exercices. It's the "Gradus et Parnasum" of Remondi. Did you ever heard about it?

  • I didn't know that book:p I will go to scores shop to look for it:) I just put Fugue for you, please give me your opinion, thank you!!:)

  • WTF?

  • I agree with you on the stretching of the tempo, but where on earth did you get the idea that "it's suppose to symboolize Jesus being crucified."? Bach's music is to performed at the will of the performer, with absolutely no true "correct" way to do so. It's an interesting interpretation, but it does not "have" to sound in any one way.

  • Oh! how I USE to enjoy sitting at the organ and performing all the works of great composers, until one day I ran into some Music Teachers and life has never ever ........been the same again!

  • no trills, other ornaments?...

  • Or rushing through it while we're on that note.

  • I suppose each 'artist' is 'free to explore their own ways of expressing....' but that doesn't IN ANY WAY mean that the results are what the composer had in mind. I personally do not believe in 'interpretation.' 'Interpretation' is an excuse for not knowing ABOUT the music - particularly its structure and style.

  • Forgive my typo, I meant "I have NO set tempo for this piece".

  • No, I think I'm right. The structure of the music dictates how it is to be played. You don't have to tell me anything about interpretation because I am usually the one who stresses the point you made here.

    Look at Ton Koopman, he plays it fast but I can still feel emotion. I have set tempo for this piece. Why? Because I want to find the best one so that people can hear the counterpoint and polyphony at work.

    I am afraid you have no idea what you're talking about. No offence intended of course.

  • I think you're wrong. Into every generation, each artist has their own defining mark on how they craft their work. ou play this pieve slow. He plays it faster. Marie Claire Allain loved to do frilly ornamentation on her Bach organ pieces, and her German counterparts were about to have a stroke. The point is...each artist is free to explore their own was of expressing their interpretaion of the music, even change it if they so choose. Toscanini's tempo's kept getting faster with age.

  • Its too fast, this piece deserves more sympathy. Even-time.

    Forgive me if I sound rude but even I can play this piece better and me compared to you.. is saying allot.

    Nice organ though, who is the builder?
