Just me playing Bach's Toccata and Fugue, I know it probably sounds better on organ but i had to make due with a piano, In my interpretation I tried to omit any sort of emotion, and wanted the quality of sound be sort of mechanical yet contain flexibility and contrast in dynamics, also I thought playing the fugue a bit faster sounded better, after all it is marked Allegro con Motto. Well hope you enjoy it anyways and my apologies to Bach

  • shapo !

    

  • I think the reason for the dislikes is only because so many people are used to hearing this piece on a pipe organ... pay no attention to them... you did a good job.

  • that was incredible! take NO notice of the dislikes!

  • I am almost done leatning this piece... at first it looks hard but when i can actually play it im like "this is sooooo easy"

  • Wow! That was so awesome! I started learning it last night (didn't get far yet) and I started to give up and think to myself, "I can't play it, and it doesn't matter, I can just listen to it" but after watching this video, I don't think I will stop trying! Thank you whoever you are! I wouldn't give up so easily if I had sheet music, please help if you can...

  • Well played, you are very talented, it doesn't send the same sort of feeling as the pipe organ, but that doesn't mean it's worth less than what it is, besides it would be the same only that with some other sound, I support the other comment about the clear understanding of the piano, it's great to analise the construccion of the piece, and the pipe organ just gives it that darker, sort of sound, it changes the mood of the piece. A really great video! Try to get your hands on a pipe organ! :D

  • I think that listening to this on the piano helps one to understand that amazing structure of this piece because it is a bit clearer :)

  • what was the sheet music you used to learn this?

  • Omg this is incredible. going on my favorites

  • How youtube changed society: People will so violently defend something heard on youtube simply because it was heard on youtube, while ignoring the 100s of better versions on youtube. Everyone wants to stick up for the underdog even when the underdog admits he played it wrong.
