Hello Carmelo! You did it, you did it ! - a good interpretation of this hard fugue. Bravo! And the left hand bass lines are nice to listen to from 3,14…..
It's nice to see your unique control of each piano tones, how you concentrate 100 %. I can say your talent/musical intelligence is shining and I am very glad you're sharing your WTC interpretations with us. Thank you!I'm waiting for the day when you have all the pieces collected in one place in a post, so we can choose which one we want to listen to at the moment.
Bach is so amazing.
I hope you can continue in the same way - keep going.
It is probably like a long climb to the top of the hill, but the view from the top was worth it.
Same with this your playing, when it is done, the feeling afterwards is worth it.Best wishes,
Stig
And - nice to have you in the Contest. I was listening again to your playing and you have a good tempo there. I wish you good luck!
Thank you very much Stig for your comment and I hope I deserve the compliments you give me. It's a long way as you say WTC I, at least for me, but I viscerally love every song I play.
I will follow your excellent suggestion to collect all the pieces of WTC I that I recorded in one post. It's a really clever way of collecting them.
Thanks again for your comment and support.
Carmelo
P.S.
It was nice to participate in the Contest, I don't know if my Bach Fugue will be appreciated because it is niche music, but I had fun recording it and that's the most important thing.

]]>That's new video of my Bach WTC I Project.
I hope you like it ! It is the Fugue n 4 in C# Minor BWV 849 from WTC I by Johann Sebastian Bach.
The fugue (à 5 parts) rises like unto a majestic cathedral,
increasing in intensity up to the close; and finally, where
the strettos of theme and countersubject form the highest
point, and, at the same time, the real close (the rest is a
coda with organ-point on the dominant, and assuredly a
diminuendo was intended), the might is simply overwhelming.
This fugue is, together with the Contrapunctus of the Art of Fugue, at the pinnacle of Bach's contrapuntal art.
As usual, Pianoteq is excellent on my piano.
I hope you all enjoy my video.
