trying out a felt piano (NY Steinway D Felt II). more Bach chorale abuse.
Thank you budo, for sharing! In my opinion no chorale abuse here I think Bach is looking down from heaven and smiling, saying thank you - he was a master at improvising himself.
I like that your playing is a bit longer. (My pieces are often only about 3 minutes).
And now I have to say , what a coincidence! - Robert schumann (1810-1856) made a piano work ”Album fur die Jugend” and improvise on this same
Freu dich sehr, O meine Seele" (Rejoice greatly, O my soul) published 1849.
This is a flowing and concisely expressive work. The actual title of the piece is "Figurierter Choral" (Figured Chorale). AND, I have now an organ transcription of the same piece!! done by Pierre Gouin.
Talking about coincidence, things happen at the same time and especially in a way that is unlikely and surprising: you will probably soon hear my Organteq version of the same choral, Schuberts version, written for organ!
Stay tuned
