The introduction to Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, one of the most important works in keyboard history. Through his two books of 24 Preludes and Fugues, one for each minor and major key, Bach showed the world the possibilities of equal temperament, which is still used in almost all music written today, from classical, to rock, to pop. This concept of writing pieces in all 12 keys went on to inspire other composers too, from Chopin and Liszt, to Rachmaninoff and Shostakovich.
Wonderful, Rousseau. Simply beautiful.
Love it
I admire your work and been following you since I stumble upon your channel the day you uploaded fur Elise.
I would love to see you perform La cumparcita, a lovely tango in my humble opinion. Check the performance of Alberto Dogliotti.
Have a great one and see you next Monday, unless you surprise us again this Thursday ;-)
So you've gotta play Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier now :D
Thnx for fulfilling my request... ☺
One of my favorite pieces I wrote.
Bach came back from the dead just to listen to this song again

when the new ep droppin?
@@orochimaru8186 yeah
bruh
Do you want to hear more Bach on this channel?
Sure!!
Rousseau Yes!
yes
Yes please.
Yes please!
I believe this was published in 1722, so just over 300 years ago. That's before electricity, audio recordings, cars, planes, steam trains, phones, and most modern medicine. For me this is what is so incredible about classical music. The way it affects our brains hasn't changed. In another 300 years, people will still be listening to this.
How come everything Bach wrote sounds like mathematical perfection? He truly was a genius...
That's because my teacher said that the pieces by Bach need extra analysis and they were composed by an intellectual
Gould's second take on the Goldberg Variations, where he plays them with a very precise, clockwork perfection, often sounds to me as if it God is speaking. Chopin does that for me as well.
@@parkersmithphoto can you please link me?
@@The_Scouts_Code - Glenn Gould: A State of Wonder - The Complete Goldberg Variations 1955 & 1981 -- the 1955 version has a somewhat Romantic feeling, the 1981 version is more machine-like but I actually prefer the precision and clarity.
It's almost like it's just scales and yet it's transcendent.
I’m just starting piano and this is the first piece my piano teacher expects me to learn
Wish me luck😩
Good luck :>
I wish you the best but you don't need luck, just determination and passion

This was my first piece too! Once you get the hang of the pattern its not that difficult and is really soothing to play. Good luck!

Prelude in E Minor (Op. 28 No. 4) by Chopin
literaly tho
This was my favorite my mother played when i was younger. Now as an adult i’m teaching myself the piano and this is my goal. If i can play this, i will be happy.
i wish you the best of luck!
G luck ;)
have you succeeded yet?
learn the theory behind it's beauty as you learn this piece. To know why it sounds so beguilingly beautiful is a joy in itself:)
do you know a good lyrics for this plss that should incorporate musical elements adopted from the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. Do ypu know something? plss i really need it...our module is making me cry plsss
So simple yet so beautiful. One of the greatest pieces of classical music of all time in my opinion.
Barroce
Baroque music* but I agree with you
@@workislisve4059I p orrr t
There are echoes of this style in the music of ABBA. Maybe why they remain so popular.
Agree, beyond parallel, the ending was undeniable perfection.
I used to love really hard a girl years ago that tried to play this because she knew I was playing piano and that I was fond of classical music.
We eventually broke up and not so long time ago I couldn't even hear this song without remembering her negatively. During that time I really lost my mental and got into a depression, because of the break up but also because of a lot of unfortunate events that chained with that. Now I'm on peace, and re-listening to that brings me huge nostalgia of a very determinate past time of my life that I won't forget ever. Maybe this girl hurt me as much as good, maybe that I idolized her too much, and that today she no longer think about me anymore, but everything is forgiven and I know I will die with no hard feeling and regret.
Music isn't just melody, it's a lifetime.
That’s beautiful actually. Happy for u❤️
Lesson: Don't idolize a woman. Women can feel Obsessive/Possessive men.
Good thing you forgave her.

@@nandonunesz I don't see difference between pieces or songs, you can call in the way you want.
@@FranciescoGallo the diference is that songs go into albums and pieces no
This song isn't hard to play it's just a nightmare to remember
Yeah, I just said that right now while looking at the score
@August Miller It's kinda the same rhythm every bar, so once you get used, it goes quite easy. But I gotta admit I had a tough time memorizing the final two arpeggios.
Yes , absolutely . You've to remember the exact harmonics if doing without sight reading. Actually this is a level 1 - 2 piano piece. So, even any beginner might require 4 - 5 days , or even lesser to successfully play the entire piece , and once done several times, they will be able to remember and play the entire thing easily .
Lol! Agree. This piece like the easiest I learned as a beginner, yet I can't memorize them all even for months 😂
piece*
This piece portrays life itself..
At first everything is so simple, merry and fine..but
As you grow old.. things get complicated, sad... but you dont lose hope...
In the end nothing has changed.. its the same old life.. but you dont care now, it doesn't matter to you, because you've seen enough..
"There's not enough room for the two of us, lieutenant."
That explains why I was randomly scared when the song started. Holy crap

The piano is such an amazing instrument. I can’t wrap my mind around its greatness.
The piano derives from the harpsychord which as it name implies derives from the harp.
If you se a grand piano you can notice the form of the harp horizontally.
@@manuelvprits does !! i never noticed
When I was in high school, a girl who played piano was in my science class and I mentioned how I would listen to this piece often. She learned it alongside her tutor, and invited me to the music room at our school to play it for me. So cute

And Rosalind's hypnosis music...
forget twinkle twinkle little star. this is the perfect beginner's song. do not be intimated whatsoever. you can learn this in a day or few and feel like you've accomplished a lot. if you have good memory, whether by sound memorization or muscle memory in the hands, you will learn it very very fast. simply play it at the speed you are comfortable with. the progression is incredibly intuitive to learn. it is essentially left to right for 5 notes, repeat to the end of the song, at which point there is a minor reversal.

Even though the raw notes of this piece are "easy" it's one of the most difficult to master in WTC1. Getting the timing and feel just right is insanely difficult. Well done.
No it isn’t….
@@FirstnameLastname-jd4uq no
@@FirstnameLastname-jd4uq i agree that it's definitely not one of the harder pieces out there but this performance was pretty much perfection in every way, so still impressive in its own right
it's crazy how beautiful this sounds, because it's essentially just an arpeggio shifting around the tonic.
still better than most composers today could do.
Bach is both the master of complexity and simplicity. What a genius! Possibly the greatest composer in human history

I’m self taught and my friend told me to learn this piece. Started at around 9:30 last night and played to like midnight, then I practiced another hour today and I can play it almost all the way through from memory. Beautiful piece and so relaxing I can play it for hours. And it’s not too difficult so my fingers don’t start to hurt either.
You have crazy memory if you learned all this that fast. This is the first song my piano teacher wants me to learn and Im STRUGGLING 😂 You’re the man good job

I like the piece, but there's just something about it that's eerie to me. Like there is something sinister about it that it's not telling you.
Its getting deeper and sadder .. minor..
Have you seen TH-camrs play The Open House? The game is based on the exact same concept you just pointed out. Wanna know something worse? This is its background music
@@aeroslothy ah yes! I have seen people like Jacksepticeye and Bijuu Mike play it. Maybe that's why I think this song is slightly sinister
From a musical theory point of view, its (obviously) written in the key of C major, but it periodically throws a minor arpeggio into the mix.
Major generally sounds 'happy' and minor sounds 'sad'. So basically it has an overall happy sound with an occasional sudden sad turn. I think that's what gives it the slightly sinister feeling...

for another easy piece can you do 12 variations of little star?
Great idea!
Wait wha? The 12 Variations of Little Star, composed by Mozart, is considered an easy piece?! Hold the phone. Thank you for holding my phone, now let me have it back for a second, thaaank you. Now, how can Little Star (12 Variations composed by Mozart) be considered easy? Sure with enough practice, it would seem fairly easy after knowing how to play it with both hands and not just one specifically, but it's certainly not an easy piece. Not for me at least. If it is, I need to practice my butt off and learn how to play that piece once in for all!
I always wanted rousseau to play this too!
First and second variatiin is easy but later... Meh
@@loogey0375 I'd been having a crappy day and the beginning of this post really made me chuckle thank you.
This is the most nostalgic piece of mine. I remember when I was first learning the piano when I was six years old. I was always into pop music, but when I had my first lesson, my piano teacher showed me a genre that I never engaged in - classical music, this piece was the first one I learned. After every lesson on every Wednesday, my father would drive me home, picking up pizza for us to eat. My love for classical music came from this piece, so I always owe this piece a listen when times are rough, reminiscing about memories of long ago.
"How lucky you are to live by the sea. What I like most about the sea is its silence. I'm talking about what is hidden. What can be perceived underneath. One must learn to listen to it."

Just completed this piece, absolutely beautiful. The chord arrangement, patterns, and overall sound is so dreamy and calming. I always feel relaxed after playing it. The emotion you have put into playing it in this video is incredible. Wonderful job!
I have really been struggling with sight reading, especially baroque pieces such as bach prelude and fugues. I learnt that a huge part of sight reading is understanding the changes, especially the V to I progression and this piece makes it easy to spot them and understand ahead of time.
Absolutely agree

Rousseau, there might be a revolution if you don't play Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2.
I don’t get why people want him to play the rhapsody. It’s easier than La Campanella. For 1 mil subs it’s weird that he’s playing an easier piece than one that he did for 50k.
@@fallenangle5246 Actually, it is really hard to find pieces harder than La Campanella in technical terms, maybe only some insane jazz arrangements. Anyway, the audience is wide so he will select from the popular requests.
The rhapsody is more popular because of it's joyous pace and (probably more) because of Tom and Jerry...
I guess you could say it'd be a Hungarian Revolution...
I'll see myself out

there's something about Bach's music; it's really the best to get your emotions in check. I love romantic music, but I admit it tends to be a sort of joy ride of emotions. When I need peace though, I listen to Bach
