Eine einzigartige und wertvolle Serie, mit Aufführungshinweisen zu jedem Stück einzeln und zu den Präludien als Ganzes. Es gibt nichts anderes wie es auf YT. Vielen Dank für all die Arbeit und dafür, dass Sie sie zur Verfügung stellen!
Glad you're enjoying the series! It's not my place to criticise the work, but if the composer had asked for feedback I might have suggested that bars 6-8, with those descending chords in "closed" patterns give an uncomfortably stop-start feel, that the first semiquaver of bar 10 might have been a rest rather than an A because the note arrives with a bit of a jolt after the pattern established in bar 9; odds and ends like that. It's just a few odd places where you feel that the music doesn't flow quite naturally; where you're suddenly aware of the composer asking "what do I do here?". Tim
@@malcleitch7106 Sorry to be so slow in replying: I've been away! No, I refer to "closed patterns", not to harmonic positions -- the musical equivalent of writing a succession of short statements that don't propel a narrative smoothly forwards, but instead create a feeling of stopping and starting.

Herzlichen Dank! Ich freue mich, dass Sie die Filme nützlich finden. Tim
Nice with the pedal trills in the fugue!
Yes, not heard that done before. Sounds good.
Glad you like it! Tim
Nice registration.
Thanks! It's a good instrument, which easily sounds right! Tim
Thanks for your comments and playing. Am wondering what is it that Bach would not do?

Thanks. I have at last looked at the bars you mention. When you say chords in closed position is that root position (left hand bars 6+7)?
So the chords result in parallel 5ths?

@@malcleitch7106 I don't just have the score to hand, but I don't think so. As I say, it's more a problem of expressiveness than of grammar. Tim
