Tonebase Bach Stage
This thread is dedicated to J.S. Bach keyboard music. We would like to renew the inspiring spirit of the old thread "Group-Journey through J.S. Bach" based on the inventions and extend to the entire Bach repertoire: inventions, preludes, fugues, toccatas, dances of the Suites and Partitas...
This is for everyone who wants to join!
We can enjoy Bach music together and motivate each other in the process of learning and practicing it!
"I begin every day with Bach - usually for about an hour. I used to torture myself with Czerny, which of course wasn't exactly stimulating for the mind. On the other hand, it teaches you the fingering for a B flat major scale, chromatic thirds, and so on. The daily grind of learning. Later, I discovered that I could get my 'training' under way better with Bach - a refreshment for the body, soul and spirit". (András Schiff, Music Comes Out of Silence, p. 21)

Another step forward in my journey of learning the Partita No 6, BWV 830, by JS Bach. Here is my first recording of the Sarabande. I’ve started to learning this piece during the summer break. Last week, my new piano teacher gave me some helpful advice concerning the pulse and dance character of the Sarabande. With this in mind I decided to try a first recording of the whole piece. It still needs some time though. If you watch closely, you can see that I look very concentrated 😂
