Don’t call it a gift, that is skill. His time and effort went into that, don’t diminish it by saying it wasn’t something he earned and created himself

[@stevenlester2606]

EXACTLY as Herr Bach wanted it to be played, because he couldn’t. Totally Brilliant in every way! Attractive camera work as well.

[@chadrew6]

How do you know if Bach could have played it like that? I think he could’ve played it very close to like that. But I do agree that he would’ve appreciated the interpretation.

[@SicrosEye]

No way Bach would mix the piano so loud and the bass so low

[@hiephan1902]

Definitely not! 🤣 Not saying that’s not interesting or not good!

[@Communism.is.a.cancer]

The original by Bach is better.

[@glasss1978]

Bach was the most brilliant keyboard player of his time. He was more famous for his (inhuman) skills as a player than as a composer back then. He could do whatever he wanted.

[@georgehiggins1320]

The crispness of the dynamic contour blows my mind. Ear candy.

[@JonnyMay]

Yes!! This was epic Luca! Loved how you incorporated blues and jazz reharms into this classical piece. The whole arrangement is so clever, with that big build up in the middle! Your touch is perfect. The energy of the band is awesome. The production of the video is stellar. You really took everything up a notch on this video. From boogie master to classical music re-inventor… Well done!!

[@Kazoiks]

Outstanding, and inspiring, and reminds us that music should be learned through improvisation and not in any other way. Creating is the way music was meant to be shared. Thank you Luca.

[@richarddoan9172]

He almost certainly learned classical repertoire very young before learning jazz, which is how most jazz pianists develop. Need to start young on classical technique for piano. I'm sure there are some teachers who introduce improvisation relatively early, but technique is first.
