I redistribute some of the notes between the hands in the 2 manual variations and this new approach will soon be available from a music publisher publisher in the UK.
In this recording I used the 4th harmonic pedal in resonance position only. The harmonic pedal was invented by Denis de La Rochefordière.
The score featured in this video is Bach’s original version for 2 manual harpsichord and is free to download from the IMSLP Music Library: goo.gl/4ReT6G

Thanks!
@Madaduxum. THANK YOU!! My family and I really appreciate your generous support. It's very encouraging. Good luck with all you are doing - Paul.
What can one say? This is Bach. Perfect. Here you can hear the big advantage of piano over harpsichord: the possibility of stressing particular notes by playing them louder.
the harpsichord with 2 rows of keyboard can technically have 2 levels of dynamics but sure it is no where as good as piano
Do you prefer oboe or English horn?
Because that argument of yours is of the same kind. And the harpsichord CAN emulate dynamics by playing the notes staccato or legato, which creates an ilusion of dynamics, just like the recorder players like myself.
Cheers!
We can all agree that this piece is perfect, at least!
Apparently Bach tried out an early type of pianoforte but is said not to have liked it. I play some Bach, or at least try to, but it seems counterintuitive to do so with either zero dynamics OR with merely two, one soft, one loud. I think the music is too nuanced for either of the aforementioned approaches.
True, but I think that the lack of dynamics of the harpsichord lent itself to the rich harmony and melody of baroque music.
This is my favorite recording of this piece. So lively, articulated and perfectly voiced!
Amazing work! I am 15 and am studying this piece, and this video has been very helpful to me over the past few days. Thank you
So beautiful!!!!! Thank you for this awesome video dear Paul!!!!!
Thank you , Marzia!
It alway look like you're tickling your piano, looks so absolutely effortless
I love this, soothing to the mind and soul!
I'm listening this music with my 6 month baby. So cheerful and beautiful
I know before I even listen I will love this!
+1
Great rendition and tutorial, thanks for posting it indeed 😉! !
I like the way you can follow the sheet music through this majestic and wonderful composition, thank you Paul Barton.
Very pleasent to watch and listen
this looks amazing to learn!
I could listen to this for hours
Notice that the pianist doesn’t do the cross over in bars 13-14, instead just taking the notes with the left hand. I’ve always stumbled on this passage and tried it his way. It’s so much easier! I haven’t observed anyone else ever do this.
But what throws me is the notation in bars 13-14. It shows the two notes in the upper staff prefixed with an F clef which would indicate to cross over an play them with the right hand but he doesn't. The score doesn't reflect what he's doing with each hand.
I noticed that too. I do cross over, and don't find it a problem.
! I've heard this at a movie. The title is, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, I guess...
Woah! You re damn right :D
That movie is what introduced me to goldberg variations 😀
My favorite variation
The fact that this plays were made for the purpose of helping a noble to listen for achieving sleep
I usually prefer baroque music played on original instruments, but I really like also good interpretations though without this philological element; and it is one of them: I think you use a great and clear phrasing. Very good execution, in my opinion! :D
Fantastic!!
This is my favourite
I want to play like that , but my movements cause legato and I try practicing with staccato to get sharper movements but it’s really challenging, cool to watch
Bravo! Perfect Glenn Gould style of a Baroque piece.
Without crossing the hands. Great!
Great!
Learning this way
Really amazing! I (try to) play this piece but it doesn’t come close to this performance. How do you play the part without crossing the hands?!
So nice
Your playing inspired me to buy a proper piano and re kindle my love for the hobby.
I don't suppose you've considered doing Dr Gradus? Debussy? I'm learning it at the moment after watching your video on Clair De Lune.
Either way, keep up the good work! You're fantastic and a joy to listen/watch.
Dan ganas de vivir con esta música.
This is the best version I have ever heard!!! It truly fits what Bach would have composed to help someone with insomnia rather than the fast and loud staccato versions that would keep them awake ;-)

Michael Orion Lol, what a joke men
Molto bravo e fatto bene
Algo que nunca seré capaz de tocar. Gracias
EXCELLENT METER, RHYTHMICALLY ACCURATE, GREAT FEEL... MOST CLASSICAL PIANISTS DON'T SEEM TO REALLY EVER MAKE THE MUSIC GROOVE ALMOST AS IF THERE'S NO PULSE SORT OF ARHYTHMIC IN A WAY
THIS WAS REFRESHING AND WELL PLAYED
This man has practiced this for a long time i think, cant he be called a genius doing this hard variation easy?
Hi Paul,
Amazing video, as always! I was wondering if you are familiar with Dvorak's Polka in E Major. I find it hard to judge how complex it is, and I don't know if you would be interested in playing it. I think it would sound fantastic, especially with your expert technique and great sense of rhythm and volume :)
Thanks Paul! I finally know how to play it without crossing my arms!
Bach wrote it with crossing arms, so I would just stick to it
@@emilsanto5728 Hi, I'm not an expert, but on a 2-manual harpsichord maybe it's easier that way?
Any chance you could do a video of reflets dans leau?
It's interesting how (in my opinion) it becomes more meaningful and memorable when the repeats are not played, like Gould does. Somehow the repetition waters down the first impression.
I like the repetition here because the piece is awesome and frankly quite short, but in any case for what I know those repetitions were used because back then they didn't have recorded music (no to mention youtube, spotify, mp3s stc) so many times there was just one occasion for a listener to hear a piece.
Is it possible if you could do a video on Pavane for a dead princess? It's one of my favourite pieces

Paul Barton Thank you!
Good
Oh my GOD, BACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm studying this piece...I thought we have to play the "F" and "G" (bars 13 and 14) with the right hand, but I see that you use the left hand...
Read the description - he rearranges some of the notes between left and right.
when you will publish the complete goldberg variations
24 variations and the first variation is the best
I'm curious why you chose not to have the right hand cross over the left hand near the end of the A section?
He a wus
i play it without crossing too, it makes for a smoother melody line (not that bach follows a melody but) and just overall feels better to play
Holland Jancaitis p
It's much easier not to cross hands. Remember it was written for a two-manual harpsichord...
same question here.
My parents KIAs both have this song as the phone ringtone.
Like Kia the car? 🤔
Killed in action?
Knowledge Inside Armature?
Kings Indian Attack?
Is it just me or does the chord progression in bars 8-12 (especially in the bass line) sound super similar to the Grape Garden theme from Kirby’s Adventure (1993)?
Heroes of might and fucking magic II !!!
❤
❤️
how hard is this compared to a two voice invention?
I played invention 13 just before - not much harder in my opinion. A couple of tricky bars but nothing really bad. Try it, it's fun to play. Getting it up to this speed is not easy but it still sounds good when played a little slower though.
OhjeohjeeinReh awesome, thanks 😊

Scratch has this variation as a sound in the Sound Library under the name "Classical Piano".
Time waits for no one
I want to learn this but I'll forget how to play it in a week
So professional are you pianist?
I'm very curious of the ties you have with the feurich brand.
What do you want to know?
Knight Town Theme.
This is so realistic. Baby Bach anyone?
The ferris wheel.
I'm not sure how I feel about cheating the difficult parts like that. Yeah it's way way easier that way. But it also sounds quite different
Does anyone tap their foot to this? Let it never be said that classical music has no groove or swing!
