Minuets in G major and G minor, BWV Anh. 114 and 115

Just joined ToneBase and will start with learning these two pieces by following the course "Intro to J. S. Bach鈥檚 Keyboard Music" by Magdalena Stern Baczewska.

Commitments:

  1. I will post progress once a week (will try and fix a specific day later and make some kind of accountability).
  2. I would also like to place a deadline for a final performance to (not later than) Saturday, Aug 6th in order to frame my progress and be able to move on.

I would really appreciate feedback and tips how to improve.

 

UPDATE July 25th

Putting this on hold in favour of a brave effort to learn Bach's two part inventions here.

    First progress update: memorized the first half of the G major minuet.

    Don't like the ornamentations and dynamics... not sure how to work on it though. Might look for more recordings. Magdalena does it in a way I cannot reproduce.
