J. S. Bach Partita No. 2 in C Minor | 1. Sinfonia BWV 826

In this video, I perform the Partita No. 2 in C Minor, one of the six partitas that are part of Johann Sebastian Bach's Clavier-Übung.
The Sinfonia is a majestic introduction that combines elements of a solemn overture, andante, and an imitative fugato style. I hope you enjoy it!

I once heard the phrase, "If you can play it slowly, you can play it fast." I believe that if you can play it slowly, then you can truly play it. Before you can play it fast, you need to be able to play it, and to play it, you must first play it slowly. If you know how to read music and how to play an instrument, start by playing pieces slowly because that means you're truly playing them. And if you can play them, then you can play them slowly - and, with practice, you can also play them fast. But the most important thing is to simply play. I hope you enjoy this!

Nice piece, performance, and I like your approach. (Glenn Gould in your hashtag? :-O)

Thank you for your comment! Yes, Glenn Gould, in my opinion, wasn’t just an exceptional pianist, but also one of the first to record works by Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven at slower tempos. Doing so over fifty years ago is truly remarkable. While he wasn’t always consistent-he also played many pieces at very fast tempos-if you listen to his recording of Mozart's Sonata in A major, Beethoven's Hammerklavier Sonata, or his iconic Goldberg Variations, you’ll find a true revolutionary in those performances. I recorded Bach's Preambulum BWV 924 at a tempo I thought was very slow. Later, I listened to Glenn Gould's version, and he plays it even slower than I do. Breaking away from the mainstream like that, especially in the 20th century, is very impressive. That’s why he has a spot on my channel. : )
