Except for Bach. I say it like Arnold Swarzenegger says it: "I'll be Bach." The way many Europeans pronounce it sounds like a bleating sheep with a head cold trying to clear their throat: "BAAAHHHcchhe." It's amazing how long of a word they turn it into. I say it in a split second. Bach. They milk that one syllable, four letter word for like two seconds straight! They are talking...words are flowing out smoothly, and then you get the verbal stumbling block BAAHHHccchhe in the middle of a sentence that makes one question whether or not there was supposed to be a period inserted somewhere due to the awkward pause that interrupted their thought...and then you find out two seconds later that no, that sentence is still going on! It's like gargling AIR instead of water! In all likelihood I am the one saying it incorrectly. What do I know? I'm just a stupid American! It only sounds funny to me because I grew up hearing his name pronounced a certain way. And usually when I hear that harsh scratchy sound, someone with poor manners is about to spit. It is not a sound I like associating with a man whose contributions to music were so vast and who was the shoulders that future composers stood on. Music would literally notbe the same without that man. He even gave us Equal Temperament tuning! To me, Bach sounds elegant. To my ears, BAAAHHHHccchhe sounds as if it is an insult or a curse word. But hey, at least half of the world says it the long way. And I will freely admit I am no linguistics expert nor do I speak German. I do not mean to offend. I only wanted to offer my perspective in a witty way. 😊
What both delightful lady and explanation! I've just started to revisit these pieces to learn about classical ornamentatation and other technical reasons although i already play keyboards. Mostly pop and dance music though i remember playing some of these pieces in my early intro to the instrument. I'd certainly love a transcription of this including fingerings as i dont quite recall all those trills which are incidentally, quite wonderful.
This is by far the best tutorial and interpretation of this piece I have heard, until today. What an excellent teacher and wonderful pianist. Sincere thanks 🙏🏼
К сожалению, я не понимаю, о чем рассказывает преподаватель. Я взрослый обучаюсь в музыкальной школе. Minuet in G major, BWV Anh. 114 я выучил наизусть и уверенного его исполняю в любом темпе .Но когда я его исполняю в темпе Магдалены, моя учительница говорит, что я очень быстро играю. Надо помнить, что менуэт это танец. И с такой скоростью никто не танцует. В общем , я исполняю этот менуэт примерно в таком темпе, если даже не медленнее th-cam.com/video/LPpfXF4RYXA/w-d-xo.html В конце видео звучит менуэт BWV Anh. 115. Тоже самое касается и его темпа th-cam.com/video/35zbDdK-kwk/w-d-xo.html Unfortunately, I don't understand what the teacher is talking about. I am an adult studying at a music school. Minuet in G major, BWV Anh. I learned 114 by heart and can confidently perform it at any tempo. But when I perform it at the Magdalena tempo, my teacher says that I play very quickly. We must remember that the minuet is a dance. And no one dances at such speed. In general, I perform this minuet at approximately the same tempo, if not slower th-cam.com/video/LPpfXF4RYXA/w-d-xo.html At the end of the video, the minuet BWV Anh is played. 115. The same goes for his tempo th-cam.com/video/35zbDdK-kwk/w-d-xo.html
So the version I got off of IMSLP has a B half note as the penultimate note of the left hand in the A section, and a leap down a 10th to the low G. Is the version I found wrong (for those curious, it says page 47 on the top right of the page - Bunte?) or are there different versions of the piece? I can see that the rest of the piece is otherwise rather friendly for new players/small hands, but I kinda prefer the sound after all this practice. Granted, I'm biased but still. Anyone have any insight?
A very technical presentation of a complex topic. I searched for minuete in g by petzold “an analysis” and your presentation is outstanding. Thank you Magdalena.
The production team should learn how imbalanced is the sound level of your voice with piano sound. The speech is too low, and it should be equal in loudness to the piano. They should use a good close up for yourself and no mic for the piano, with good mastering for the speech.
I am only a medium beginner player. I thought this piece was easy to learn and play but it's a bit more complicated (even without the extra ornament notes) than what you would think when hearing it.
@@DrUkeMusicThe toccata in Dm (BWV 565) shows stylistic oddities compared to other Bach pieces, which lead some to believe it was not composed by Bach himself.
Of course J. S. Bach did not compose that Minuet. It’s not even remotely in his style. Also, in my Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, the minuet was attributed to Petzold, not Bach.
@@bsmusicdNot only that, saying it wasn't "remotely in his style" is quite an arrogant assertion. The diversity of his music, even if obviously and unequivocally baroque, is immense.
Hay quienes dicen que al minuet lo compuso Petzold que era aleman como Bach, Petzold murio, me parece, en 1733 y Bach fallecio en 1750, asi que es muy probable que se conocieran
to say this is his "most popular piece" is quite an overstatement. Even more so considering, that many do not believe that the Toccata in D-Minor is his...that should have been the piece for this video title, really. It is still a nice video, though.
The French and English suites are all composed in common dance forms of the time (except the English preludes which I believe are just meant to be audibly enjoyed)… however, if anyone wants to add to this, or correct me, please do. I play a lot of Bach but I’m not academically fluent in his catalogued musical output.
Anyone who wants to play it should care that it is not Bach's composition, since Bach has his specific style and you need to know how to interpret it. Also, anyone who ever composed something respects the rights and honors others composers, it is a "principle" thing. Also, some of us care enough not to be ignorant, especially if it is not such a hard thing in this case.
She’s a very good teacher .
She makes it all very clear.
Magdalena is local to my area and host local piano concerts. Cool to see her here.
I’ve learned so much from this tutorial. Love her scarf.
Listening to this Lesson, this Minuet is NOT child's play at all!!
I personally never learned these pieces, but they are true gems!
This was very well done. Very clear explanations, flawless pronunciation. Very enjoyable and useful. I hope you will do more.

I imagine Anna Magdalena smoking a cigar and the 13 children dancing the minuet in G major, like little demons around the room...
🤣
What a stylish lady!

Amazing that the book is still in such good condition! 🤯

Excellent!
A leap of an octave.
Kind killed me, but all the same, this is really interesting
Excellent! I recently started learning piano. 😊 this teaching is slow and tells all the important pieces.
Good camera work & editing
Well, he didn't compose the toccata and fugue in d minor either if you ask me, but that doesn't make it any less of an effective piece!
Wait what?

@@Isegawa2001 That's crazy! I'll be sure to look this up. I've been telling my students that it's been composed by Bach for over a decade. Thanks

Well I didn’t know. I figured he had simplified his music for his children, but I loved the backstory. And this instruction is so lovely.
The attribution wasn't discovered until the 1970s.

Thanks for posting 📫
🥰🥰🥰 😍😍😍 🤩🤩🤩
Merci.
Do we use pedal with this minuet?
нет не используется
to say this is his "most popular piece" is quite an overstatement.
Even more so considering, that many do not believe that the Toccata in D-Minor is his...that should have been the piece for this video title, really.
It is still a nice video, though.
How is it even possible to confuse composers?
No, ajaja pero que es esto ajaja toda la vida creí que eran de Bach ajaj
Actually Bach didn't compose any of his most popular pieces. He didn't compose the Toccata and fugue in d minor either.
💖🎶🎵🎶🎵
Wonderfull pieces. Yes , I knew it's not Bach .
I never once thought that minuet was by Bach...? 🤔 btw did Bach write any dance music? Not to my knowledge, but perhaps someone can enlighten me

@@benjamonpookoo2741the Bach's Partitas for harpsichord are movements of dance too, Alemande, Courante, Sarabande, Minuets, Bourrés, Giga
@benjamonpookoo2741 thanks!

Complimenti
I would enjoy this even more had Ms. Baczewska been wearing a gown from Bach's time.
Clickbait, it is not his most popular piece, by far.
Who cares, really?
Anyone who wants to play it should care that it is not Bach's composition, since Bach has his specific style and you need to know how to interpret it. Also, anyone who ever composed something respects the rights and honors others composers, it is a "principle" thing. Also, some of us care enough not to be ignorant, especially if it is not such a hard thing in this case.
Confused by your comment. The video is an instruction of how to perform a famous piece. It's clear who cares, people that want to play it. No?
