Hi everyone, if you liked this video don't miss my latest performance: Air on G String by J.S. Bach to the following link! th-cam.com/video/cpAzRBgoHo4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=DarioRonchi
Dario Ronchi I like your moderate use of pedal. The overall sound is clear. But the recording is a little bit metallic. Tell your sound engineer to do a better equalizing and use better mics, maybe the hall is not fit for sound recording.
Martin Alvarado Probably because of the Yamaha, they have a really bright tone, Bosendorfer has a little muddy deep tone, Steinway is right in between, but I prefer my Gerhard Adam Grand!
I've always heared Bachs music as fire rap music. Mozart and Beethoven take a seat, the students should look up to the master, but the masters looks up to the God, Johann Sebastian fucking Bach.
" Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14, 27
I'm obsessed with Bach's "little" fugue in G minor. This is the music that makes me most want to learn to play the piano. Thank you for this beautiful interpretation.
I became obsessed with the "Little?" Fugue as a listening track after discovering it on a 1956 Eugene Ormandy LP then finding it was the first sample of melody given in an early edition of the book "A Dictionary of [10,000+ Classical] Musical Themes" [it headlined the collection because it had been accidently left out from publication and the starting page which quoted the opening bars was an "errata" section!]. To this day the Dictionary sample is the only part of the melody I can play but I binged on it for years when I wanted to put myself in a melodic creative mood then when the BACH 2000 Complete Works set came out I explored that regularly as well. To realise that the Little Fugue is one of Bach's earliest known compositions having been written when he was approximately 15 years old is awe inspiring.
I always come back to this great playing of this talented man...he really feels the baroque, sorrowful energy behind this notes. A talented pianist. Thanks for sharing this!
The term "little" has always made me chuckle about this fugue. In a few pages Bach has presented as grand a fugue as only he could do. Play this adjacent to the less well-known dorian fugue in D minor, an equally astounding fugue but one that is much more traditional and longer. They complement each other wonderfully.
my elderly grandfather who has played for almost 70 years was quite impressed at your work. he compared it to 2 pianists playing. you sir are quite talented as many pianists would never dream of playing the bass the way you did
Dario, your performance is without a doubt incrediable and unique. If Bach was here, he would be amazed how delicately you could transfer his soul and existance into air...
I don't usually comment on videos, but I have been listening to you performing this piece for weeks now. After all these countless youtube repeats, I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your performance. Absolutely magnificent!
My father's love of Bach has been passed on to me. He contracted polio when he was two which led to increased weakness later in life. When he was in bed, he'd request works by Bach to play on the stereo. Once I played your version of this piece, it was specifically requested by him atleast once a day.
I am listening to the Little Fugue with many different ensembles (Orchestra/Stokowski, Brass quintet and several more) and I am happy to listen to a "simple" piano version because it seems it would be impossible to tell apart the different voices but your interpretation is so good that it's really pleasure to be able to hear all of them nonetheless. Thx for the good interpretation!
The most glorious piano performance I have heard in a long while. I love how the individual voices are brought forth, as well as the unfussy elegance of the trills. Thank you.
Dear Heart, beautiful performance. You have a profound gift. This piece is very special to me thanks to a organ major who dedicated it to me for a recital when we were in college. He passed away several years ago and I miss him. I hear the Little Fugue and am transported back to that night when he allowed me to attend a rehearsal. The outer world was shut out for those few hours. All Love
Hi Dario, just wanna say you are the best pianist I found on internet so far! You are so focused, careful and emotional when you performing neatly and you make the music beautifully symmetrical. Morden but not too excessive, classic but not boring at all, calming and passionate at the same time!
Brilliant! Outstanding! Often, we are very accustomed to hear the organ, but this transcription springs out beauty genius and devotion your legato is marvelous and hugely enjoyable, the vibrato is perfectly well-marked, the section for the pedal bass your transcription is very complex and at the same time very clear to hear every single note and scale, the section for manuals is so overwhelmingly clever and delicate, I'm devoted and dilettante and an student of cello and contemplate this transcription is astonishing, I haven't seen any performance like this one, this surpass and overtakes everyone that attempts to emerge. We can regard Bach's style and his grandeur when you play as Reincken said to Bach when he met him: " I thought that Art was dead but I see it that survives in you". Thank you very much for share it..!
Thank you Alejandro for your deep observations, I can only add that in interpreting this little fugue I followed an old teaching: "We must play from the soul, not like trained birds."
Dario Ronchi You're absolutely right, when I mean to "accustomed" is a general term as well you know there is not very good performings for this fugue, yours excels all those.
Thanks for recording this. Great job. Much more difficult than it looks. Downloaded the score a few days and was looking for a recording of it. Excellent playing.
Hello Gary, thanks for the kind compliments, it makes me very happy to know that you enjoyed my recording. I visited your youtube channel and I found it very interesting! I think your interpretation of Claire de Lune by Debussy is really made with a lot of emotion and technical precision!
Dario, se mi chiedessero la mia canzone preferita io risponderei questo pezzo, peraltro interpretato a livelli altissimi da te, a tal punto da emulare Bach stesso. È un puro capolavoro, che dimostra cha Bach sia padre della musica e abbia inventato in anticipo accostamenti di note prima inconcepibili. Non riesco a smettere di ascoltarlo!!! (Inoltre tai facendo fare una bellissima figura all’Italia di fronte all’estero)
Commenting again just to say how stunning the video work and camera angle are as well as the music! Just re-watched this and was blow away all over again!
I'm starting to like this more than the organ version, it sounds sharp, pure and beautiful without the organ's delay.Thank you, you are a great pianist.
Dude, I don't know if you get this the same way as I do. I heard this fugue a long time ago, it was in my mind, a little bit of it in the most deep part of my brain. I found it, don't ask me why, but I got goosebumps while listening to it again. It made me really happy, I got a really great conditioning (psychologically speaking) with the piano, the fugue and your playing. Thanks a lot, your playing is extraordinary, have a great one! Greetings from México.
Many thanks Roger! This Fugue is for me a childhood memory that has always accompanied me throughout my life, I've only just decided to study and to record it. I'm delighted that you enjoyed my interpretation of this masterpiece of Bach!
Exactly the same for me.As a child, I heard an old 78rpm orchestral version of it again and again but had 'forgotten it till this moment. Thank you, Dario Ronchi.
I started learning this a couple of weeks ago and now I can finally play the part where the fourth voice joins in at 0:50! I keep coming back to this video to get myself excited to learn the rest. Very well done! edit: I learned the whole thing :)
Cue the person that says it can be learned in a couple of days :) Strangely absent. Someone must have bought him a piano. Keep going Eric! It can take me many weeks for even easier pieces and like you, I find listening to masters like this is all the encouragement I need.
@@PhilJonesIII I think that it could be learned without sheet music, in 1 sitting, after only hearing it once. "The rest is just the same right?" - W.A Mozart.
Bellissime riprese. Interpretazione sublime. Giusta Grinta. Confermo la quiete nel suonar tempesta. La serietà che manca oggi giorno tra i pianisti. Complimenti
I love this version! You have totally captured the divine majesty of this music. My cat, William, a short hair brown tabby agrees and loves this piece as well. Two more votes!
Excellent! Been wanting to play this for 25 years, but can’t play the organ to save my life. I have no idea why I never thought to look for a piano arrangement for it until now. Still beautiful, need to look for the sheet music myself now!
I think it's not a traditional way to perform fugue thus someone would criticize But I insist that it 's very good to try a new style. We shouldn't be restricted because the purpose of music or art is to bring people with beauty and pleasure. I think this version is a success!
This is brilliant. The way you articulate the contrapuntal texture of this piece really makes the lines crisp and crystal clear. Your supple technique lends a vibrant, lyrical quality to this piece. You incorporate the organ's pedal board parts into your transcription masterfully, too. You improvise with alacrity, and your trills and mordents are very tasteful. I am an organist, and this is in my repertoire. Although, I am not the reincarnation of Virgil Fox, I play well. I do play piano, but the only Bach I play on piano is Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. You play this piece, which is not as easy as many people think it is, so well and are intimately connected with it. Do you happen to have any experience playing organ? I know a lot of pianists that serve as church organists. Have you played the A Minor prelude and fugue or the "St. Annes" yet?
I really like your version! The way you play it is the best I found on the internet. You play it like my piano teacher who loves to play with a lot dynamics and some own interpretation. Of course he can also play it like a clockwork but that's not what music should be like. I downloaded this version and hear it every day in the city with my noise cancelling headphones and it's always a so great experience. Greetings from germany and sorry for my bad english ;) btw. I don't share the downloaded version.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that is obsessed with this piece. I can never get enough of hearing it and I just love this version.
I just started learning the piano because of this piece. Even though I can only play the first 8~10 bars, I'm really enjoying that moment.

My thoughts entirely.
One does not simply stay calm while hearing this super powerful theme, and this man made it even stronger with the octaves...
Thank you Maky! I am very pleased to have transmitted the power of this Bach fugue.
Just as one does not simply walk into Mordor! I agree with you, though.
Jesus, it's written for the organ! Two hands, no feet, WOW!
Thank you! I learned to play a very nice transcription for piano.
Dario Ronchi Where did you find the arrangement?
@@adamdonahue2079 on IMSLP petrucci website
@@Dario_Ronchi Do you remember exactly whose transcription?
@@t_mm_r this is the transcription by Philipp
This song blows my mind... Could you imagine being capable of creating something like that!? Pure genius
+McGhostluvin It is very difficult. Only two people can create such music: Bach and God
I always come back to this great playing of this talented man...he really feels the baroque, sorrowful energy behind this notes. A talented pianist. Thanks for sharing this!
hello Violet thank you very much for the nice comment on my video!
There are those who play music, and those who feel it. What a glorious rendition. Love the dynamic contrast. Fantastic performance.

Play this adjacent to the less well-known dorian fugue in D minor, an equally astounding fugue but one that is much more traditional and longer. They complement each other wonderfully.
It is called the "little" G minor fugue to distinguish it from the "great" G minor fugue, BWV 542/2.

Incredible power. Brings out the best in Bach, although we tend to think of this only in terms of organ and/or orchestra. I am grateful!
Fun fact: the Swedish Heavy Metal band, Sabaton, plays the first 40 seconds of this fugue in C minor, which leads into their song, 'The Red Baron.'
This also opens up to the song Father OSA by Styx

the way the camera is moving makes you look so epic and dramatic in the beginning! XD
