Wim Winters has startled many by reestablishing much better tempi, but his most insightful contributions, for me, focus on his ability to show how phrasing is the secret to the greatest interpretations. The spirit of Albert Schweitzer in strong in Wim Winters. Schweitzer's performances of Bach's organ music are magical because of his attention to phrasing (as well as tempi). Such musicality is the highest form of virtuosity, not merely speed!

I've been learning Inventions 1, 4 and 8 (currently working on 8) and I find this video extremely helpful and reassuring. Sometimes I feel like I put my value as an aspiring pianist on how fast I can play a piece. Invention 8 particularly has intimidated me on how fast some play it, hearing your performances helps me realize that I can learn these pieces and not have to be scared or feel inadequate because I can't reach break neck speed.

Beautiful. This is the first time I'd heard Bach's inventions on the clavichord, which I understand is the instrument he intended it for. I'd started playing piano at 8-9 yrs. old and was introduced to the usual classics for learning (Für Elise, Moonlight Sonata, etc.), but didn't know about Bach until, of all things, I heard Invention No. 8 as the score to a video game called _Looping_ on Colecovision (1983) and then later Invention No. 13 that was used for a Commodore 64 commercial (1984). I was instantly hooked to the intricacies and "echoes" Bach used in those pieces. I'm not sure how I found out it was Bach-much less inventions-but when I did, I immediately went to my local library and found the sheet music, practicing it over and over until I memorized them both. Of course, as a self-taught kid at the time (13-14 yrs. old), I totally overlooked all the notations that would affect the "feel" of the notes (staccatto, etc.) and just basically took it at face value. It wasn't until a few years later when I played the pieces at a friend's house on his piano (he was a huge Bach fan and accomplished pianist), and he totally berated me for not knowing all those nuances, lol. He also said I was playing them too slow, which I totally objected to. I was a little discouraged after that encounter and didn't play them much after that. Revisiting these pieces by watching your performance inspired me to return to playing them myself. Your tempo is perfect; pretty much the speed I liked playing. I also really like the subtle flourishes that you put on them, and the sound of the clavichord is amazing. I can't believe how old this music is, but it goes to show that some pieces are just timeless. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.

I’ve just stumbled across this recording and it’s by far the best and most musical performance I’ve heard of Bach’s inventions since I listened to Gould’s years ago (especially the 2nd in C-moll, wow!): From the added ornamentations, that deviate from the choices of many other performers’, and add to the dramatic narrative, to the phrasing of the theme. This is what music is all about; thank you for all your efforts.

Hi Wim I just want to be very honest here: When I saw the presentation of one of your video for the first time on youtube, it was a talking video not a performance, and of course about speed and music, I though: "Great! An other illuminate or a frustrated musician. Let's have a look for fun!", I'm not proud of myself but that was my first view of the presentation of your video. After watching it I just started to think about it and found it really interesting. Then I started to follow your channel on youtube. I still play music my own way with my own temperament, but no doubt that your video made me think and view music differently so very thank you for this. Then I started to watch your performance. First I think it was Beethiven pathetic. I have been very pleased to listen to that because I really heard a new piece there! You are a very sensitive musician and I think you deserve more listener! my mother was an opera singer who did a very good career. I grew up as a musician and when I discovered Bach really young, I fell in love with his music instantly! My mother told me that I wasn't allowed to listen to any pianist playing my pieces until I totally finish learning it and that a child should be able to develop his imagination to create his own view of a music piece! Very young I understood the importance of phrasing and singing everything I'm playing. I can feel when a musician or a pretending musician, emulate a phrase without fully understanding it or possess it nearly like he/she would have wrote the piece himself/herself. You really feel what you play Wim and I really take pleasure listening to you. You will probably have people who doesn't agree and like your music but that's part of the deal! It allows other musician not playing the same way as you to be appreciated. But count me as one of your follower, very happy and pleased listener. I have heard so many teachers teaching those inventio and Symphony like a finger exercise!!! They should listen to you and remember that they are pieces of music before anything else! I would like to say that I'm a "classical" pianist and moved to jazz later on in my career. I love it and it is very very interesting that Jazz helped me to understand Chopin, Bach, Beethoven,... in much deeper level. I firmly believe that there are not stupid music! Even the most recent pop song have one or two things to teach us. Please continue to do what you do because you do it well!

I used to find listening to the inventions too dreary on the piano and too noisy on the harpsichord. The clavichord is 'just right'. Funnily enough, it's quite natural. Why won't it be? Bach didn't sample a piano and then a harpsichord and then settle on the clavichord. He wrote it for the clavichord. So, to find it sound best in the clavichord not only attests to the delicate nature of Bach's music but also the importance of choice of authentic instruments. The fortepiano and the clavichord are the most organic of all keyboard instruments. Love the color (/timbre) disparity between bass and treble. Almost sounds like two different instruments.
@AuthenticSound7 жыл бұрын
There is a lot of discussion whether Bach wrote for the clavichord specifically or even not. The latter is hard to believe is an option today, but it is...rarely, the facts are taken really seriously. At the end we don't know because we weren't present at that time, but we do know for instance that the inventions and sinfonias, form the title page, is to learn the "cantabile" style, which was new at the time, and directly connected to the clavichord as an instrument, never to the harpsichord. So... you have great ears, I believe what you experience is right. And yes, the clavichord is a great polyfonic instrument.

Hi Wilson, thank you for the nice words! The clavichord is historically a very steady instrument. if you leave it in the same room (as I do now while recording the partitas on tape, it indeed is remarkably steady. When weather changes, like from +10 to -5 (c) e.g., the base can go down a tiny bit. I don't know the technical reason for that, and in fact it is kind of strange, since you really, physically push the string up, the louder you play the more, and of course if you exaggerate with doing that (going over the tone), you'd affect the tuning, but overall, that isn't the case. best wishes!

the tangent stays against the string as long as the sound remains. After that there is no real damping, but the sound will not live for long. However the soundboard acts like the echo of a cathedral

There’s a typo in the description. Looks like you mistyped 2 as “21.”

@@AuthenticSound Thank you! Personally I go for Henle Urtext as they stick close to the original score. But anyway, great recordings! I like them very much!

I wish our clavichord sounded that bright!

It indeed is a blessing to have such instrument, Kerry. Clavichord building most of the times is underestimated a lot, it must be one of the hardest to built instruments of all keyboards. Just a little bit off the road of perfection and you lose much of its abilities
