Student: António Pereira
Venue: Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía, Pozuelo de Alarcón, Madrid (Spain) 23/03/2006
J. S. Bach: Suite for cello solo no. 1 in G major BWV 1007 (transcription for viola) - VI. Gigue
Abstract:
Professor Christ comments that the tempo of the Gigue is correct. The student should play using the colours of the whole orchestra, with a more festive character. The duration of the figures should be complete, without rushing up. The movement of the body is necessary in this kind of music, so the student should think more about freedom and the audience. Upbeats can be more remarkable. The last note has no accent but it is free, with space. Finally, Christ recommends the student to use the movement of the body in his performance, being aware of what he is playing. He also should study in front of the mirror.

Warum?

I think he seems like quite a great teacher and I would love to have a chance to have a lesson from him. He is also a magnificent player and is very warm at giving directions or what to aim for.
