@peppersax haha that little "touch" is actually written in my music for this. i didn't play it, but i like it too!

[courters1204]

this is great and all. like you played it perfectly.

but i'm just saying, its not as impressive as people think because he's 10. its impressive that he played it this well.

bach wrote this FOR his 10 year old son to learn.

and, he's been playing since he was 3. that's 7 years. that's pretty normal for 7 years.

even with that being said, you rock. :D

OMG, I was awed by this. Great interpretation. I wonder if you figured it out by yourself? Since this seems like an exercise piec, it's pretty hard to find the right way to express. But again, you just did it fantastically well!

[peppersax]

Excellent interpretation young man. I liked your style and the added 'touch' on the end.
