Practice with Me | Bach Presto BWV 1001 (Real Time)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- This is an unedited and realistic glimpse into one type of hour-long practice session on the Presto from the 1st Violin Sonata in G minor by J.S. Bach BWV 1001. The only difference between what I do when there is no camera vs this video is verbalizing my thoughts so you know why I'm repeating something, or what I'm trying to achieve. Keep in mind this is just one type of practice a piece goes through. There are multiple ways that a musician works on any given piece - including playing very slowly, playing with the metronome at various tempos, applying dotted rhythms, playing back-to-back run-throughs of the whole piece...
The transcription I'm using is Manuel Barrueco's. You can find that on his website here: www.tonarmusic...

It is good to see your practice sessions. Makes me feel not so bad when I struggle to memorize and make it sound good. It shows me that excellent players go through the same.
This was very useful insight into your practice methods, Gohar... please do some more when you can find time... it's very much appreciated...👍
A wonderful insight into a professional's mind, and the awareness you have of your physical situation: the need for relaxation, so that each section becomes "easy". Thank you Gohar.
Thank you for your excellent tips and advice, Gohar.
Most grateful 🙏
Your commentary as you practice is very useful to me. It provides insights on what to listen to as I practice and to how to spot correct the issues.
I enjoyed watching and listening!!! Thank you Gohar!
Listening to you explaining your practice regime brought to mind some difficulties I had to overcome as a student. A good practice session is always more fruitful if you zero in on the problem note’s, bars, and phrases instead of playing the piece over and over hoping the piece will eventually work itself out. Evan with a good instructor telling you what to do, having the mental discipline to practice intelligently falls on the student.
Eres espectacular. Amo mucho tu música.Gracias
It is interesting to see how you do it, subscribed, greetings.
Very VERY useful. I did no fast forwarding. Because I found it helpful seeing decisions you made on a section. Anytime you want to do this I will watch!! I would love to see how you start a new piece. Thank you for doing this. You can’t know how much it helped make me feel pretty good about how I am practicing and made me feel better about my practice because I knew what you meant every time you mentioned something about a section and what you were going after. I was like “oh yeah I know what she means about X thing”. Fantastic.
That’s great to hear! Thank you! keep on practicing !!
Saludos desde Ecuador , soy tu alumno desde hace muchos años... Gracias por todo
Wonderfull, thank you so much Gohar!!!
Great Gohar!
Seeing you work away helps me,reminding,I.m not the only one toiling away lol.
Just a thought,doing so much can be mentally exhausting,ending up playing my preferences anyway,then having to play catch up.
Great and very informative video. Will you release the finished product on UA-cam? Would be great if you could upload more of these practice videos now and then. Hope to see you live one day!
That’s the plan, but need to get the whole sonata down first
Hi Gohar. First of all how's it going with a lot of concerts? You are always kind with the technical explanations. Excellent video.
🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏
Thank you gohar, always so helpful. I haven't played this piece before, I'll definitely try it at some point.
Very very helpful ❤❤ keep going on this content
Thank you so much for sharing your practice session. It is incredibly informative and affirming -- we are all doing our own versions of this at our respective levels of ability. It is wonderful to know that we share this hard work in common with someone so accomplished.
Thank you, Gohar, for posting this. Very informative and fun to watch. All the best, Will.
wow! you normally never see the work artists put behind their work, just the polished end result. Very informative video. Great!
loved this video i am just learning this piece and found this extremely useful, thank you for sharing your pracice of this ,
Thankyou Gohar this is very informative and helpful to me...
The wizard's curtain lifts! Very interesting - thanks!
Thank you very much. This is great for many reasons. I hope you do a lot more of these.
Great Gohar, o like your vídeos e your performances
Thanks
I love bach pieces
I believe he is the best musician ❤❤❤
looking forward to see this!! its been long time and trying to get back on it!!
Wonderful
Hi again Gohar :). When you are working with your metronome what does it mean to increase tempo by "one setting"? When move up, I move up 10 beats per minute. How do you do bump up tempo?
Usually that means one notch on the old school metronomes that have specific numbers, like 69, 63, 66, 69… etc… at faster tempos the numbers are bigger distances apart; 138, 144… I like two move the metronome at max 2 bpms… but if I’m practicing something really slowly and I’m not playing too many notes per beat, then I jump by 5 bpm. Depends on what you’re practicing 10 is usually a big jump.
me encantan mucho tus tutoriales ...te estoy siguiendo hace años ya..y solo puedo decirte que muchas gracias por tu aportación a este mundo de la guitarra . que como yo en etapa de adulto y estudiándola . me apasiona .. la pena es el idioma , que me pongo los subtítulos y me pierdo mucho ...pero bueno ..con paciencia , tranquilidad todo sale y mucha práctica , me encanta como interpretas y explicas . desde murcia españa muchas gracias y no dejes de ser así de profesional . 😉
Thank you very much for the kind words!!! :)
If you were learning a piece with a lot of melody in the bass and treble at the same time,how would you approach it?Would learn the bass parts separately and then put them together with the treble melody,or would you take each section altogether?
First learn together just so I know where the notes go, then play the melody to know what it sounds like, and then the bass … I guess the order doesn’t really matter. You can do bass first… the important thing is that you know what it is.
Thank you, Gohar! ❤
How can I see your music charts
Great thx!! It is very useful!!!
Since you have been so kind to answer a couple of my questions, I have another one. Do you put your guitar back in a case when you are done with all your daily teaching and practice hours at the end of the day or does it rest in your room on a stand until the next day?
My guitar is always in its case, with at least one closed latch, unless it's in my hands. No exceptions.
Oh wow you are excellent
I love the advice to move on after working on sections I know I spend too much time in one area
It’s a balance, you can’t always move on because you still need to improve something, but sometimes lingering on the same section ends up being counterproductive. So I go in layers …
Great video!
Eres la mejor...
Eres buena
Gohar i want learn guitar with you, i'm your fan i'm loving listen guitar your technique its clean and you are the besti good bless you i want learn play guitar with you Gohar
❤ Grazie Mille ❤
Do you do any transcription by ear only, Gohar?
No, not really.
Thanks Gohar... *_*
I wish if I could hear you playing the Chaconne BWV 1004
Why do you not stay on a problem area for long time. Wouldn’t you want to get it correct first, then move on?
It's not the only time I'm going to practice this piece, I can tell from how it felt playing if it's time to move on and come back to it later. If I had never gotten it right I would have stayed longer, but most of the time, I did get it correct enough to know what I'm supposed to do. In another practice session, I might spend more time on a particular spot, go slower, or take bigger chunks and see if I can get it right in the context of a longer section. So each time it's different, I work in layers, making it slightly better all across then coming back and making it even better next time around. Also, I often find that giving time to my brain to work on the problem passively (when I'm not actually playing), fixes the issues, like learning something and sleeping on it, the next day the information is more solid. So instead of beating something to death, I let time pass and see how much of it solidified while I took a break, and if it didn't, then I'll continue working on it next time I practice.
@@GoharVardanyan interesting, that is really helpful advice. Do you use any specific practice sessions you have developed since you were a student at Juilliard and Peabody?
Not anything specific, but what stuck with my the most is SUPER slow practicing and learning to pay attention to EVERY single little detail, especially in the technical execution so that you have more freedom musically to do what you want.
Could you please guide me on the name of the piece at 36:20' which is played by John Williams students, thank you.

No idea…
You seem very angry when you practice. You are angry with your hands and you are commanding and threatening them to do what you say and get the job done.
I Would like to see you but at the time, I have to go to play the songs in tha mass. I Will see you tomorrow. God bless you my dejar Gohard.
Thank you Carlos! You will be able to watch the video at anytime you want! 😀
@@GoharVardanyan ,thanks too much to take a little of your time and answer me. That make me very happy.
