  • This Harpsichord concerto in F minor BWV 1056, performed here by Siebe Henstra and the Netherlands Bach Society, is in a melancholy key. Although the plaintive character is noticeable straight away, the sun does shine through in several places. “The whole concerto hangs together perfectly”, says soloist Siebe Henstra.
    Recorded for the project All of Bach on 3rd February 2017 at Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

      Right, certainly because here the harpsicord is not playing continuo, as often happens in the Baroque Era, but solo.
      Anyway it's true that its spiky precious sound often disappears under the shrill of the strings.

    What I would give to be able to go back in time, sometime around 1725, in the town of Leipzig. A "must visit" destination would be, Zimmermannsches KaffeeHaus. Maestro Bach and his musical cohorts (wow, to be able to be a member of that special group...lordy) most likely played this great concerto there, to the delightful astonishment of all the lucky patrons. My guess?...numerous encores. Until the time machine gets perfected, I'll simply come back to this wonderful, live music making, performance. Many, many, thanks...please keep posting.

      I certainly understand your reply...the loss/misuse of many of his compositions is obviously a monumental tragedy. Actually, I was really attempting to compliment this ensemble's performance. However, being the selfish soul that I am, I'll admit that I'd rather meet the man when he was fully alive...I'll let you go back and retrieve...hey, I'll even leave you some clues. See ya's in a few hundred years.

      Worth looking at iconic bits of all kinds you can imagine and look for some commonalities.
      When I did it then I saw that to create a melody that sounds closer to iconic it's worth taking into account the implied harmony and how patterns are used...
      I find Beethoven and Bach very iconic even in their less known music so I looked at those and found those general ideas to be effective in making something I find more iconic.

    It's always weird (and boring) to see people get stuck on the question of tempo in nearly every performance of classical music uploaded to YT, as if that were the most interesting thing to focus on. If you don't like the flow of one performance, you can quite easily to switch to something else instead. There is ample room for all approaches to such music, and the existence of one approach you don't like doesn't nullify all of the approaches you *do* like! Let it exist. Anyway, I like what I've heard of this ensemble's playings of J. S. Bach's music. Thanks for sharing. The first movement of this piece in particular has always struck me as having a peculiarly sinister bent, even among Bach's moodier stuff.

Mejor es el realzar el contrapunto y temas con las variantes que Bach maneja. Y , esencialmente, que quién lo escucha pueda sentirlo.

And I love the the role the harpsichord plays at first these low acompining chords and reverberation to the the leading fast scales but for the first movement I prefer glen goulds version because it’s a lot more weighted and firm like how most Bach is but I prefer this recordings third movement because of the tone that you can only get from small ensambles but excelente performance

    이 중 2악장은 사연이 깊다. KBS FM 93.1에서 이 음악이 어쩌다가 클로징 음악으로 나왔는데 제목을 알 방법이 없었다. 클래식에 대한 일천한 지식으로 다만 멜로디만 기억하고 있다가 대학생이 되어서 레코드 샾에서 이 노래가 다시 나왔을때 곧장 샀던 기억이 난다. 지금이야 인터넷 발달로 무슨 어려움이 있겠는가.
