Coming from a professional career playing flute to learning piano repertoire, this tip and how you show it is of great benefit. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Bach didn't write Minuet in G Major or Minuet in G Minor, he merely compiled these two minuets in a book for his wife to use when learning to play, they were actually written by a forgotten composer named Petzold
Coding for Kids We’ve known Petzold wrote it since the 1970s...
theyre both dead who cares
@Coding for Kids huh? We knew that since the 1970s?
Robert is right, of course.
I find myself playing like this as the piece appears to invite it.
The wrist action advice is apt in this instance.
Age should NOT MATTER. Young or older students can practice this piece.
Great little video, I'm learning this piece now, thanks!
You are very welcome! Glad you fond it useful :)
I know this is an older thread. However, I just found this video as I am now learning this piece.
Bach did not compose this piece, despite it being found in the notebook he made for his wife. This was pointed out by another commenter. However, it is also important to realize that it was written for the clavichord (or perhaps the harpsichord, but likely the clav). These instruments operate by plucking a string, rather than a modern piano which strikes the string with a felt covered hammer. Therefore they can only play at one volume (which was actually whisper quiet). Thus there are no dynamic markings in the original. There is also no sustain pedal - the slurs and staccato markings were not in the original manuscript either. These were all added by future editors. The ornaments, though, are authentic.
The piece should be played non-legato with a steady tempo. The dynamic, slurs and staccato markings should be taken with a big grain of salt. I recommend consulting the Urtext versions of any baroque repertoire. Urtext is sheet music that is authentic to the original composer’s score.
Awesome! Thank you
You're welcome!
Excellent and clear tutorial

I bought a piano two days ago and I am learning this piece. This video will help me to get a soft staccato.
Excellent teaching

Thank you for the tip mr.estrin
You're very welcome.
So is it Bach or it is Pezold? Helpful video anyway.
Petzold
@Kevin Thomas he's just asking a question...
Kevin Thomas The truth always matters. Every time this tune is publicly misattributed, it perpetuates false information.
@@rapscallionrobby How do you feel about that Bach had 20 children and all of those that composed music are also called Bach? It's technically correct to call all of them Bach, but does it make you feel uneasy?
cool tips. thank you
Thank you so so much
great teacher
Yes, I agree, Robert is very good in teaching and explaining things in a easy way. Be sure to checkout all other videos by Robert on VSM: www.virtualsheetmusic.com/experts/robert/
thank-you good tip will incorporate it into my (a level 1 to level 3 student) playing
Great to know you liked this video :)
i've seen a lot of scores from this minuet and sometimes there's no legato at all, it's all non legato, and sometimes there's legato, but everyone plays the melody with legato none the less, i'm wondering why
if you do the melody in non legato it sounds very akward to me
got my aswer: basically because this piece has been likely written for the clavicord that is incapable of handling dinamics
the guys playing it now have simply added it to sound better but there is this debate going on if you should or should not add dinamics to bach because bla bla bla
I play the staccato by rotating my wrist.
Here’s a tip: stop misattributing this piece to Bach
here is another tip you have already said this in a post.
Tom Kelly Yup, but that doesn’t make it less true.
I am such a scrub. Never was taught this wrist staccato.
Christian Petzold dislikes this video.
Sad
