J. S. Bach: Air on the G String (piano)

[@TruthSurge]

Maybe it's just me but I think this is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. Nice job.

[@YalcinDiker]

I feel the same way

[@Danny30011980]

Indeed an utterly beautiful, calm and relaxing piece. And nicely played here. :-) *thumbsup*

[@katya--28]

TruthSurge not just you! This is my all time favorite piece of music! :)

[@TruthSurge]

Katya Petrova I like it but I never can say something is my favorite. I like a lot of things and I just quit trying to assign some quantitative value to stuff a long time ago. I like slow and melodic stuff so this is right up my alley!

[@alexanderlocke2911]

TruthSurge I concur. However, though I might not be able to list my preferred pieces (Too many to count), I find myself coming back to this one in particular every couple of days.

[@patrickramosofmanila]

If only this kind of music was played to everybody. I'm sure the world will at least calm down even for the entire duration of the piece.

[@nancyhume567]

This is the most wonderful execution of one of the most touching and beautiful pieces of music ever written. It captures the perfection of Bach's composition with wonderful constraint - and with underlying passion that breaks opens my heart. Many, many thanks!

[@evanofelipe]

I was just 11 yrs old when I first became aware of this incredible piece, then regularly played on the piano amongst other classics by our school Science teacher as we boys filed quietly into the school Hall for morning Assembly. I have loved it and later all music by Bach ever since, that was over 65 yrs ago. It was the reason why I learned to play the piano and went on to develop and appreciate the wonderful music of JS Bach. I’ve always been grateful to Mr Morris our Science Teacher for subconsciously introducing me to the world of JS Bach. His compositions have been the source of great joy and comfort to me all my life. It was indeed a great gift to give to a child.

[@attackcatgaming1556]

This is such a beautiful song. It's really calming. Kind of gives you that nostalgic feeling you get from old memories.

Air is a really good song to start practicing relatively early. Not very hard to play, but sounds amazing.

Close your eyes, open your heart and just let the music flow. The feeling and sensation is almost surreal.

[@yuhanzuo4029]

the most beautiful version of G. there isn't any decoration and exaggeration. and i can feel that he played with great constrain of force and emotion. the beauty of serenity is in this constrain. meanwhile it induces me to reach for the tension and enthusiasm beneath this constrain. so who can give the piano score??

[@beeclassy4867]

I love this song, and I'm completely mesmerized by the pianist's hands in this video. Fascinating!

That's why it touches the soul like becoming a means of communication unseen by human eyes.

[@happyfunstick7727]

I like this rendition so much more than some of the more famous ones. It's a sweet, understated piece and this performance didn't ruin it with too much flourish, playing with the meter, overdoing the 'expression', overdoing the chords, etc. Thanks!

Ahh.. this brings me so much nostalgia honestly, It makes me feel like crying! Because, air on the G string was one of the very first songs I looked up to when I first started piano. It's crazy to think it was hard to me then! I remember, before I could get a piano, I'd always play around with a piano keyboard app on my phone and try to play this hmhm, I'd even show my mother and father on it haha. You played it so beautifully, thank you for the nostalgia :) .
