Hi Paul, a few months back I was practicing my first fugue (the one in cm of the WTC1). It took me by surprise how incredible these works are to play and listen to. These works become even more fun to listen to when you play them yourself. What a performance you gave. Giving each voice the attention it deserves at the right times. I am dying to learn more Bach because this music is just incredible
I used to love composing counterpoint for fun. Counterpoint was my absolute favorite course at university. I wrote an awesome 3 part motet that has been lost to time. I was so pissed when I realized that I lost the disk and hard copy (1999) we had a concert at the end of thr semester and my bass botched the performance. I later heard from my girlfriend at the time that the professor bitched him out because my piece was the best of the semester, including the one he (thr prof) wrote. True story. I was so proud of that
@@PaulBartonPiano If you don’t mind me putting it out there I’d love to hear you play some of John Field’s Nocturnes as well! I know their not as great as the Chopin ones, but I think it would fit your channel content great as you love to play some of the not so well known but still great content.
This is ALL what the comments say here; I always want to go back to the Artist’s conception when just playing it -as it came to him. Where were his thoughts? The total act of “opening” the door into Bach’s mind might just be in THIS one!! Thank you.

If you're taking on the kunst der fuge, you would instantly become a reference recording. Amazing as always!
My favourite Bach piece. Thanks for doing this one! Perfect tempo too, this should be played slow.
