And it was great

@@dang1861 It lacked a Grand. But we don't. Now Bach's played on one. And it was Grand.

... and in 1685, Bach said, "Let there be real effort" And it was greatly productive.

TRUE!!!!

Leather biba

Indeed, he was not American.

Kevin Afton He was a genius

Had 20 children and still managed to have such significant and massive output in music? I reckon he's more than just an alien. xD

lol

I wonder if through the fire and flames was taken from that lol, sounds just like it at the start.

fugue is a type of music, not a piece

@@bruh-th5ft thats right,but i meant in context of this video in which fugue is part of this piece

+1

sometimes the rest of the piece is there to lead up to the „best part“. ;)

ikr!

The conclusion of the Fugue has always been very special to me. I don't know why.

Parece com a musica do orochimaru

i absolutely agree.

Mozart and beethoven composto really good fuges too, tre listening the synphony 41 4th movement by mozart and the grobe fuge by beethoven

-Except that this fugue (BWV 565) doesn't sound like Bach at all!

@@chipensemble please explain

@@everytimeieatsnowitscold5277 The famous Toccata and Fugue has too many elements that are highly unusual of Bach, such as lacking counterpoint, minor plagal cadences, plagal fugue answers, etc. That has lead many people (including myself) to think that Bach is not the composer of this work, but someone else - or it's an arrangement of a Bach original that has been lost in time. TLDR: this work, as we know it, may not be penned by Bach himself but another composer.

@@chipensemble I know this controversy but some people are always too confident about this. Bach wrote it when he was young, so there's no point in saying there is lacking blah and blah. He was influenced by the artists he used to listen. And there is a resemblance with other toccatas, like E major and C major. There is also many other things that I have read somewhere that are telling that this controversy is very far from a consensus

You'll need a couple more years though

YOU CAN DO IT!!!! I as a fellow piano student will believe in you!

Anyone been playing for five years like me?

i ve been playing piano since i was 12 years old, now im 26 years old :S

To the sky my friend believe like baby steps to giant strides

Math son!

Amen!

do you have the fingering sheet

holy damn im not even 16 yet

@@fakiAZer that makes you a certified little person, congratulations

@@thomas3601 The sheets came with some on it.

If the guy that has the top comment on here where to read this he would freak out lol.

et moi j' en suis dingue. Pour arriver à composer comme lui, faudrait déjà avoir son inspiration mélodique hors du commun.

his fugues especially

Me too my dear! But I'm going to need to take a couple of counterpoint/fugue classes first, in order to accept that it is impossible to compose as brilliantly as Bach second! :')

easybullet3 thank you!

Bach won't play it with a piano :)

Karnak07 he would exclaim "this is an abomination " lol.

David Smith Right! XD

David Smith you are an abomination

Bach in the Saddle Again

BaCh, himself, had TWENTY CHILDREN with TWO WIVES. He was never well paid. Never recognized and appreciated for the incredible genius he was, and in additton to composing vrtual FIVE-FOOT SHELF of great masterworks, for organ harpsichord, chorus and orchestra in a mere sixty-five years, he played churuch services for which he composed new, often large-scale coal works each week. He rehearsed the choirs, and the orchestras, he taught the boys latin, and managed to teach all of his to bcome musiclly literate, NDseveral of his boys to become first-rate composers in their oWn rite.

not quite my tempo!

Great movie. Must see.

de hash Which movie?

Whiplash

But why so much sustain pedal?

thanks!

***** I would like to concur with the guy above As I've said on another of your videos, your accenting is so immaculate. Very "clean" player. I wanted to here you playing a fugue to hear you articulating each individual voice, and you have not disappointed. This is very beautiful squire, thank you!!!

***** Sir you make it seems easy. Seriously awesome.

+Byron Callahan Makes you realise how far ahead the likes of Bach and Motzart were. And again Paul, thank-you for a great transposition from organ to piano.

I can’t stop listening to this. This is epic. Nice work my friend.

Hey, im from the future. How it goes? Are you still a beginner?😅

Although the work is written for the organ, but personally I prefer to still arranged for piano. On the piano phrasing can be more accurate which does not reach on the organ.

My dad used to play this on a Hammond C3 with Lesley Cabs. Fantastic!! 👏👏👏

rjpadanova it may be easier for a musician to affect phrasing on a piano, but I am of the opinion that the organ is actually much more flexible and wider in dynamic range than the piano. One could argue that the piano is simply an upgraded harpsichord.

How is it an upgraded harpsichord ? They are completely different instruments.

David Smith. You're not wrong, harp is to harpsichord as harpsichord is to piano. But the piano is one of the best instruments ever invented. Having said that however, I love an organ. As this piece was written for organ there is no way that a piano could ever be better than an organ at this specific piece. To even suggest anything alternative shows a lack of judgement and intelect.

That is my favorite part

ending is dope!

No the first part

Not taking anything away from Paul but listen to David Hicken's interpretation. Its phenomenal!

Too much damper pedal altogether

Some songs don't need words. Love from a hot sunny road in India.

@e causey what

Wouldn’t that apply to music in general? Because scientifically spoken, it is.

lol

True :)

That Liszt had big hands.

Absolute madlad

Lmao

This doesn't sound like Bach's music and it's very unlikely it's by Bach. Attributed to him almost a century after he died.

😄

It doesn't make sense

There are many ways to play great music

Plug In Baby anyone? haha

It’s the easiest part but probably the most beautiful as well

Arses A.R. Honestly I’m obsessed with the start because club penguin was my childhood and the start of the song was on it for some reason.... lmao

Bleach

*and the easiest but its still good. Fugue is better

Well, mainly because it has a so-called "harmonic pedal" and Mr. Barton makes proper use of it. Here is how I explained it to a friend a few weeks ago: The reason for why let's say the note A (440Hz) sounds different on a piano than on a guitar is mostly the fact that depending on the architecture of the instrument it adds many other frequencies to that base frequency. Most of these added frequencies (we call them "overtones") stand in specific mathematical relations to the base note, and the most dominant intervals are the octaves, the fifths and - considerably weaker - the major thirds, and I think there's a seventh somewhere, too. If you're interested in the mathematics behind this, you can look it up on the Internet. There's quite some literature about this effect. You can experience this with any acoustic piano and the better digital ones, as well: Gently press an A note in a way so that it does not produce its tone (or wait until it's gone) and then shortly hit the formerly mentioned intervals one after the other, in this case C#, E, A while holding the A down. Also try other notes as well. You will notice that not every fifth or major third resonates, but the octave always does, even though you may not hear it anymore since the interval becomes too big when you go up too far. Actually, Wikipedia has a nice sentence which summarizes it quite well: "For example, an A string at 440 Hz will cause an E string at 330 Hz to resonate, because they share an overtone of 1320 Hz (3rd harmonic of A and 4th harmonic of E)." So just imagine that the two notes share some specific frequency they both have in common (in their whole spectrum (base frequency + overtones)), and it's not necessarily e.g. the double of the base note (octave above), but it also applies to the other frequencies in the note's spectrum. Now for the pedal: Usually all the notes on a piano are dampened, so they can't vibrate unless you hit them. If you plant your foot on the harmonic pedal, all the keys can vibrate freely because the dampener is lifted. It's like that one A note you hold down, but in this case it's like you hold down every note on the keyboard. If you then hit a note, its string gets hit by the hammer but is immediately dampened again, but that short sound is sufficient to excite many other note's strings. So what you hear when you hit the note is the note itself (its base frequency + its overtones) plus its harmonic notes' overtones (like the overtones of the E in the Wikipedia quote). That's somewhat of a special feature because the usual sustain-pedal doesn't kill a note's base frequency right after you hit it, and because the base frequency is a multiple times more dominant than the "fragile" overtones you can't focus on the overtones. Jesus, I think I had too much coffee... Anyway, I hope that answers your question as to why that Feurich sounds so shiny :) PS.: I recommend watching Paul Barton's explanation on the harmonic piano.

Felix Sch My brain hurts trying to understand this :/

Felix Sch mais tu sais que c est pas besoin de nous expliquer tout sa on est pas bête nan plus

You're welcome. :)

Felix Sch great explanation, but you totally missed the joke, i think he meant "mad sounding piano" as the resonance box has a label that says "MAD" instead of FEURICH lol

Encore.

***** let's stop arguing technical and let's stop calling this a "song" !

+vulkanosaure Ahahah for sure it's not a song:)

+vulkanosaure Your an uncultured idiot, with no realization of what music is, I hope to god your joking. I can't believe this is what modern society has produced.

He's right. This is not a song.

+Undead Shaman dear friend of mine, I didn't totally grasp your comment. In my humble opinion I Think they're right (+vulkanosaure and +chish josh). Absolutely you cannot definitely define this a song. To write a song you need 5 min. of you life. To play this OPERA at least 5 years of studies and genius and passioned constantly dedication. plz have a nice time. ;)
