  • In this recording I used the 4th harmonic pedal in resonance position only. The harmonic pedal was invented by Denis de La Rochefordière.

    Excellent control and confidence over the Prelude. Enjoyed the pace and the dynamics of Fugue.
    Another welcomed and refreshing interpretation.

    Hello My friend Paul Barton, I'm a big fan of your work, I learn a lot with your tutorials, I live in Brazil, and I would like to see you play a composition by a Brazilian pianist, for example. (Ernesto Nazareth - Odeon), and thank you for your videos.

    There are two things that are very hard to compose with any success. The first is two-part counterpoint and the other is a fugue that doesn't sound mechanical or contrived. Bach does both so well I am tempted to warn: Do not try this at home!

    Hey Paul. I have little observation. Sorry if this give you a iritation or some other negative feelings but. I watch your hands while piano pllaying and i need to say. The doesen't look like a typical master piano player. The look like hands of Craftsman. Of course your play is one of best in youtube. But i thnik maybe you did start a piano playing not in early times of your lifes when you were 5 - 7 yeras old but later and if my thinking is coreect i think you have very, very, very good technique. My dream is to get piano technique like your. Thanks

    • @PaulBartonPiano
      @PaulBartonPiano  7 років тому +7

      I am certainly no master, as you correctly observed. I'm just a regular guy that likes playing piano music and my hands are, as you can see, far from being an ideal size or shape for playing piano. That said, each and every day I wake up the very first thing I want to do is play the piano.

    Nice! One thing I would have liked to see is the differentiation between the voices in the chords in 0:51 for example.
    Bach, even though of course knowing about chords, thought polyphonically. Thats why the the passage sounds a bit too "chordy" to me.
    But that would just be icing on top of this awesome bach cake :D

      @tuenhanvo9310 4 роки тому +1

      Wow, so you really havent really learnt anything about music history, Bach existed before Chopin, also Chopins torrents are all based on some poets (i think) so yeah

    • @johanssoncisneros1489
      @johanssoncisneros1489 4 роки тому +1

      Thank you for the history lesson kid, I think there's a comment there where they say that Chopins impromptu sounds similar to Beethoven's passage of the moonlight sonata 3rd mov. Why don't you go to apply some of your masterclass and tell them that Beethoven existed before Chopin?? hahaha :p, cheers kid, no hard feelings of course I know Bach was before Chopin, everyone knows!! It was a random comment that maybe Chopin really took this as inspiration, sometimes they find inspiration on common finger exercises and not a piece in specific.
