Topic: Fugue 7, WTC II (Bach)
The magnificent Fugue 7 in Eb major from WTC II, played the way I feel it. (I elaborate in the description next to the video.)

Yes Jan,
I experience the same. People often play as it is a race, who can play fastest.
And I agree about the staccato too. Your playing here is nice, to my taste really. I like to hear the harmonies, and the slower tempo gives kind of emotion and joy, you are playing with your heart.
Actually, this is an impressive performance with moments of beauty and the dynamics is so great, beginning piano and growing to forte and then piano some places again and the very nice ending slower and diminuendo, the decrease in loudness, bravo!
Thanks Jan for sharing!
BTW,
When I was playing Prelude and Fughetta BWV 902/1a BWV 902/2 I was listening to Varvara Miagkova and thought tooooo fast! And chose my tempo - maybe a snail compared to her but enjoyable (I think).
If time, listen to her and compare to my version. Attatching link
