I would really like to enjoy the Great Repertorie with you
My piano teacher taught me this one when I was a teenager. First full-difficulty Bach piece I ever learned. He described the way to play the ending as "the whole song is a thunderstorm, then at the very end the rain starts dying down and the G Major chord at the end is the sun breaking through the clouds."
man I just was working in this piece today I wrote next to the G chord the word "sun" because I feel that!
Pounding this song out on my key board was my passive aggressive way of telling my parents I was pissed. I realize now as a parent 15 years later that they were probably amused and NOT appalled like I had intended. 😂
Lol
The whole left-hand melody from bar 2 onwards seems to sound like someone saying ‘I am pissed’ over and over!
"song"
@@27dimes I can hear that too!!
This is my I had enough of this shit piece... Probably the only piano piece I still know after I played it on my exam and whenever I am mad when I practice I just play this....
When i sight-read this
My eyes are like ↙️↖️➡️⬅️➡️↔️
I thought it was just me :-)
Helps to keep left pinky always anchored on the bass and sometimes only use thumb for tenor
literally me
You can change the speed
This is my favourite Bach prelude. I used to play this a lot, years ago. My teacher said that this piece messes with your head because Bach reversed the dominant hand: the emphasis in this prelude is on the left hand, not the right, as per usual. You need to use more force on the keys with your left and go lightly with your right. It's hard to play, but well worth the practice. It is absolutely glorious.
My favorite as well. Haven’t done learning it tho
@@fchild Keep going! It is SO worth mastering. I felt amazing when I could play it well.
I learnt this for my piano exam two years ago and the stress I was in because I was scared that I would accidentally emphasise the right hand....
@@fannikepenyes3152 I'm sure you played it really well! 👍😊
Thanks for the notes!
My professor gave me this piece to study for final piano exam (on music school)
I played this on a piano test. It was a bit stressful but I actually didn't mess up.
Same
It took me 4 month to learn it
Lol
I did this for my senior college piano recital. The song has an intense feeling that could go together with a stressful situation.
Phil_06 it shouldnt really take very long to learn this but okay
Sam Li Jie i know I’m just bad at reading music
I love how it ends on a g major chord. Like it’s dark and then it’s not
The G major chord is setting you up for another piece in C-minor, hence this being a “prelude”
@@harpsichordkid Bach often uses a major chord at the end of a minor piece.
welp i hate it
I hate it
@@pianoconcertono2 bruh
DOOD DOD DUUUN
Simple is best. Bach makes it look so easy. This piece even feels good under the fingers.
IT' SO TRUE I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY MY HANDS FEEL LIKE TINKERBELL'S FEET
@@martinasavarese6011 ikr my hands feel like they're dancing lol
Only when it comes to the repeated rythmic pattern and the form. The harmony is quite sophisticated. If it hadn't been that, it would have felt too simplistic.
Exactly ! When I first saw this piece, my brain was like oh this seems great and easy lol . Then when I started to play ... opps , did I say something wrong 🌝 My eyes were flying everywhere and my fingers were out of control tying a knot :)
But I’m finding it so hard to get it right… Beena month already
"Each morning I go to the piano and I play two preludes and two fugues by JS Bach. It is like a blessing, a benediction, on my house". Pablo Casals. I did this today, albeit with four beautiful renditions I found on TH-cam, not actually on the piano. What a wonderful way to start the day! Incidentally, when I learnt to play 999 on the Spanish classical guitar it was in D Minor.
Thanks for sharing!
Good! He was called Pau though, not Pablo. He was a Catalan independentist.
@@tonicorella2822 ok! Good to know!
It sounds great on the guitar.
Yes, it does. I think John Williams played it best. @RodericSpode
This is a deceptively challenging piece. I've learned this and performed this at a recital when I was much younger but I never truly mastered the intricacies of it. I am in awe of those who truly manage to make this piece sound as it should. This was an example of this piece being played properly. Excellent job! ❤
This is the best interpretation I’ve found on TH-cam so far, no rushing through the piece at a blistering speed. I believe the perfect tempo is a tiny bit slower than this and I like that the notes aren’t played as staccato as most performances. I believe this song should let the notes ring
At 1:00 I like to slow down a bit and play lighter and built up to the part at 1:06 and then just slam the G and repeat that measure a second time just to reinforce it
Dee doo dum, Dee doo dum, dee doo dum....
Siuuu
I played this 2 years ago in church, messed up. I was 9 tho, but...
It's very stressful.
Did you mess up Badly?
This piece is an easy way to summarise why I love J. S. Bach
So simple, and yet almost crystalline in it's perfection.
Playing this rn ! As a 13 yr old with tiny hands this will be hard
Such a beautiful piece of music! Timeless
When I started learning this there was no internet and I had no access to other versions. I played it slowly at the encouragement of my teacher, a bit like this version. I was very surprised to hear it played at twice the tempo when I finally got it on CD. I still prefer the slow version as it allows for much more nuance
My piano part in college. I had a hard time, but it was worth my work, it's a very nice piece😌🎹🎶
That bass movement cracks me up! I've never had a bass line crack me up before!
what is so funny about it ?
Yeah tell us what is funny
the absolute greatness of Bach!
I just started learning this yesterday and well... I am thankful my teacher gave me this opportunity🤭♥️
I, too, am learning this ☺️ Got the first eight or so measures down in seven-ish minutes
I haven't tried this on piano. I have guitar transcriptions which are transposed to Dmin (you've got to use drop D tuning for that). I've noted that a number of pieces that are relatively simple on paino become rather difficult on guitar. This piece pairs so well with the first Prelude in C. Also, I've heard this piece played rather slowly on the guitar. I thought I was playing it really fast. Apparently not.
Lovely! Short, lively and to the counterpoint.
lol
It has very precise and sharp staccatos not to mention...this piece is really a piece of art if u really know how to play it
No counterpoint in this.
@@escopiliatese3623 Actually there *kind of* is. It is just arpeggiated and hidden. Think of the voice leading of the chordal tones as subtle independent voices.
@@kiren3168 Indeed. You can even track it visually - if you focus on a particular note in the arpeggiated chord (that is, occurring on a specific beat of the bar) and follow it like a melody. Or, unarpeggiate (don't think I've ever used that word before) the chord, and follow each individual note as it moves through the chords - the uppermost/highest is usually easiest to follow. Quite delightful how you can imply movement in several voices using only a single voice.
Been searching for this almost for a month. Thanks a lot
Thanks this makes it easier to learn a song
Loved the rubato at the end
I learned this song off of The Faded cassette tape years ago, so I never knew the name of it. Now I do. I'm impressed with myself for learning Bach on a cassette tape. Haha. If I can do it, so can you guys!
Great, I have learned this piece and some days ago I asked you to do it and you have done it! ^_^
I'M STUDYING THIS RIGHT NOW I FEEL SO HAPPY
I just started playing it and I already really like it.
I like this piece, interesting that it end on the dominant
Love the phrasing
I found another great BWV just now 👍🙂
Although a popular keyboard piece, it was in fact originally written for lute. The J.P. Kellner manuscript gives the title as "Praelude in C moll pour la Lute di J.S. Bach". Most guitarists play it in Dm. More great fun from the master Bach.
i think you mean popular piano piece
@@celestyelle6164 doesn't matter really
Playing it in Dm would probably sound like the Cm of Bach's day. The WTC C major sounds more beautiful to my ear transposed to B.
This is incredibly sad and beautiful.
THANKS!!!!
So nice on guitar, so fun to play as well. 😊
Maravilloso
Here because of the French music group Polo & Pan! They made a song based off this prelude called Artemis and it is fantastic!
The sheet helped me know the notes. Very good👏👏👏
Great! I'm glad the video helped :-)
i'm learning it
How has it gone?
I’m learning it tooo
@@tiltedtowers1753 1 week after how is it ?
Good for you
I'm learning this too, I started it today
Really great
I love this piece. I insisted on learning it in my sixth month of piano study, over my teacher's objections and hot on the heels of the Minuet in G. Good times.
I'm starting my 6th month and currently learning this also
Lol you jumped from the first to the last piece of "my first Bach" music book 😂
The rhythm really sounds like his other piece Suite No. 1 in G major
Hahah that caught me massively off gaurd, i got taught the first half of this as a kid (5 or 6) by my parents, i never even knew the name or that it was bach (makes sense now i think about it) , but i played it all the time untill we moved and we didnt have a piano anymore, hearing it out of nowhere in this video which was just in my recommended, like i said before took me by suprise, i probably havent heard anyone else but me play this for over 13 years.
gracias por subirlo :D
genio
Very impressive!!
Que chopiniano era Bach...😃Como se nota cuan clasico y genial fue Chopin!!!👀👍🎼🌹🍃🌹🍃🌹🍃🌹🎼
IsaM Molina si no me equivoco chopin vino después de bach.
Nada que ver, Bach nunca conoció a Chopin, además de ser de épocas distintas
i Love it
I had forgot I used to have played this piece when I was little until I found this again
Very good❤️🔥
Another sick beats by Bach ：）
*:* - *)*
Es muy bueno la canción
playing this in 6th grade great peice to play
My twelve year old daughter just finished this piece. So I challenge her to who can play it faster! I'm still winning...but soon, alas, she will pass me
I played this on a piano exam two years ago and I practiced a lot and I was so annoyed that I tried to play it as fast as I could. Next lesson my teacher told me I somehow messed up the whole rhytm..... Well...
Loool the reverb
I remember my teacher wanted me to play this, i didn't, becuase it seemed weird to me. Now i see why she wanted me to learn it 😅
Jason Ullerich chill dude
@Jason Ullerich The harmonizations are weird and its important to appreciate weird things in art. Art is imperfect
It's funny that this is actually quite easy to play if you're a practiced pianist. Might as well be Moonlight Sonata. Lovely composition, not difficult to perform.
yeah I actually started to learn this piece today and I am almost finished. This "dee doo dum" is kinda addictive, couldnt stop playing.
fantastic work! thank you!
i am learning serious repertoire here thanks so much
Nice and good exercices piece of Bach prety easy! Idk why its stresul for u. If u are kearinig this good luck!
Estoy aprendiendo esta pieza para iniciar el 2do año de piano. Me parece muy interesante lo increíble que suena. Especialmente en las notas del 0:31
I play this. Your performance is perfect.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it :-)
Very good piece to improve your skills.
This genus
Nice! Thank you:-)
One of the few pieces of Bach that dont end on the tonica
Nice phrasing
Гениально
amazing, sounds like something out of Game of Thrones
C’est quoi le morceau ? Toute mon enfance defile sous mes yeux, seul devant le clavecin à bouffer du bach toute la journée pour préparer les concours et les exam
I feel good for you since I'm learning it and I'm almost catching up your speed
Waoo preludio #3 de Bach, el barroco tardío
Análisis please
Que bonito pena que não tenho menor vocação, mais acho lindo
Bach was a smart Composer
❤️❤️
Much prefer it at 1.25x speed
Agreed. This is too slow, which decreases the dramatic feeling. Also, playing too slowly quickly risks getting boring with that simplistic pattern.
@@NidusFormicarum I hate it when it's played fast, because it just feels strangely rushed and the piece doesn't have time to evolve and unfold itself
How difficult would it be to sight read this piece perfectly? I’m asking because I did it.
999k views, bwv 999 nice
Start: c minor
Ending: G major.
Nicolas Godin of AIR fame used Bach Prelude of C Minor in the tune Bach Off from his solo album Conttepoint.
Análisis please
Love your video! I think there's mistake with the note played at @1:15 though I'm not a musician. It sounds like that note is different (higher slightly?) than in other recordings but i could be mistaken!
Thank you for your video though I enjoyed how this piece was played
It is a mistake, the third note in the arpeggio should be a F
@@WolfieNamira Thanks for confirming this. I used to play this piece (memorized after learning it from sheet music), and I recognized that there was that one wrong note.
At 1:15 wrong note in the treble clef, it should be: B natural, D, F
Actually it is the measure with the a flat as the left hand note.
Oh yeah. Your right!
Análisis please
Кто ещё кроме меня слышит ангельское пение во время исполнения этой прелюдии?
Superv
Hay veces que no se en que periodo musical está Bach.
Trying to learn this right now because it’s good sheet music reading exercise and it’s beautiful but I’m a bit confused with the tempo. Other performances are so quick and I’ve seen it to be called con moto 112 bpm and I wonder if that’s a good tempo? I like the tempo in this video a lot though
If you intermediate level 4 and practice like minimum 3hrs per week you don't have to play fast maximum 100 per beat when it is learned and start learning in very slow tempo like 40-50-60 /depends on your pace learning skills/ try not to stop when u learn it will help you to feel the constant beat. If you will start playing fast you will learn with many stops mistakes wrong notes and wrong rhythms ....little by little step by step with time when you can manage to react and play with no stops you can increase your tempo by 10 when you can manage in this tempo add another 10 by speed
what soundfont is this
Maybe Max Richter took the inspitation from this to compose the Leftovers ost.
Great playing! I just uploaded this piece too :)
relantioship this piece: love and hate
like life itself - goes through all the tribulations and comes to a sudden peaceful end
That G hit me right on the spot
wow
Funny thing is he actually ends the piece on a G chord 😎
Análisis please
Beautiful peice! My teacher told me its a bit of a tough one to memorize, but i realized if you pay close attention to small groups you’ll fond patterns🤓
If you play it at x2 it sounds like its played on the violin, haha
Hello, friend.
Hi
Hi
There’s a mistake. The sixth bar counting from the end: There must be F instead if G in the R.H.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE ORIGINAL SCORE?!?! IF NOT THEN YOU HAVE NO PROOF
AceInTheHole , of course I have seen. You can find scans of original manuscript on imslp. BTW , you can look up other executions by prominent performers such as Glenn Gould’s.
Oleg Mariakhin it is g not f. I saw it in this book called celebration series: piano repertoire. 😝
Theres an F un the sixth bar, wheres the mistake
Análisis please
