    The Partita for Violin No. 3 at 5:23 being played is the transcription done by Rachmaninov in 1933 and not the original written by Bach. This version by Rachmaninov varies considerably since he added a jazz-style to it, and it's worth listening to both the original (usually performed on violin) and this version to see how they differ.

    Bach for me has been the most talented musician of all times: the complexity of the counterpoint, the art of the variation, the huge and diverse music pieces, the variety of the resources used... He is the reference of the baroque period and the "caviare" and "exclusive-distinguished" art for the pianists. If Chopin/Beethoven concerts are for big-mass stadiums, Bach concerts should be played in top-high exclusive clubs. I´m still amazed how he gave us a message as a present: one single silence for his "sigh after the pain suffered" is enough to understand his unique talent (compass no 28 in BWV 847) .

    • @sati6298
      @sati6298 Před 5 měsíci +1

      Fugues are not the most complex music whatsoever, quite the opposite. Because of how mathematically they are written it’s one of the first things you would learn if you do composition in a conservatory. However that is only compared to different types of composition such as ballads and rhapsodies, and Bach is a genius so his works are obviously an exception to the “easy”.

      @@letsbrawl945 I agree. however, the fact that there are so many rules leads to an "easier" writing experience. I didn't mean easy, it's simply more straighforward than other genres. Again this would be undersandable as composition grew in difficulty thanks to the legacy of later composers such as Bach. This doesn't take out the difficulty and genius that Bach represets.

    The Toccata in G Major, BMW 916 (1714) is a thing of beauty. I personally felt in that moment, after listening up to that point, that that's when his composition probably started to mature....
    Of course I may be wrong as he wrote thousands of works, and I am not aware of all of them... maybe he wrote something more beautiful when he was younger...
    But this piece felt like a turning point to me..... What a great teacher and musician... Bach was the best there's ever been.

      He didn't. BWV 945 is a "spurious work", which means that there isn't sufficient evidence to prove that it was actually written by him. Scholars estimate that it dates around 1695-1700, which is a very large margin of error. It could have been written when he was 15 or later, or earlier. We just don't know.

    @J.A.Seyforth Před rokem +9

    i think you'll find that his development as a man correlates with the enhanced use of dissonance, chromaticism, modulation and emotional depth. his early recordings sound much like what imitation bach sounds like, kind of complex but happy and with broadly common sounding melodic lines, everything after age 19 of his starts to sound like bach as we know him so well. one striking thing that occurs is that as he becomes a much older man contrapuntal method becomes extremely powerful and almost God like in it's ability, it is just this unreal multi voice force of nature that no child could write, only after years of toil.
    I'm currently learning BWV 645 (sleepers awake). it is an absolute piece of genius and you see that it's simplicity is deceptive, the swing and sway that Bach achieves between the two voices is insane and if you don't have your rhythm and tempo to the T then you're done for and you might as well go back to school lol.
    This is a fantastic recording/demonstrating what I mean about this piece. also the horn soloing it is just beautiful: czcams.com/video/KyWOIKCtjiw/video.html

      I think it's very hard to know. Because Bach reworked a lot of his compositions and included them in various pieces of music. Then near the end of his life he apparently destroyed a lot of stuff he wasn't satisfied with. Add that in with the fact that a whole lot is missing even among that which was originally preserved and it's a difficult question when everything was composed. Also, there is the question of when it was originally composed and when and how extensively it was originally reworked.

      Same with Beethoven as far as tempo steadiness goes, I typically hear a very steady tempo in Beethoven. Maybe just a tad more rubato than Bach, but almost imperceptible. And nothing like what I hear in Chopin.

    When you put all Bach's works together, it is stupendous. Most people would be hard put just to copy all of it in their lifetime. I am convinced he had a system. So that given a tune, he could basically flesh it out into a piece without really thinking about it. What is amazing to me is that if you write his music out as a series of chords, it still sounds amazing. That is, if you scrunch up all the notes together in the bass, so it sounds as an accompaniment, not as several melodies (as he wrote). Yet he wrote before modern chord theory emerged. I'm not explaining this well, but the thing is, he didnt just write counterpoint as FUX taught - adding accompanying melodies to each other in a way that the notes didnt clash - but the piece have the chordal drive that pieces conceived harmonically have. Further, his chromaticism was extraordinary. At times he modulated so quickly he's just transitioning through keys from one to another, almost so much that its no longer really tonal music, but it still sounds tonal. All this gives a huge richness to his sound that later, classical composers just dont have. Neither do his contemporaries, like Handel. But how was this done? As I say, he wrote at such a rate that he cant have worked on pieces like you or I, but more like simple calculation. A bag of tricks that generate rich music.
    Learning to compose myself (poorly) shows me how easy it is to make music that isnt unpleasing, just following very simple rules. But there is a huge leap from that to writing something that comments on the meaning of existence - like the 13:08 Matthew Passion above. Some of these tricks are visible - note the opening pedal point - the repeated bass note - which adds ominousness.

      Scriabin may have suffered from mental illness at the end of his life, and he may have had other (physical/mental) health issues. But there wasn't the type of connection between his musical output and his mental health as is being suggested.
      He had an unusual philosophy, and his music got more harmonically complex over time, but this wasn't a symptom of a "decline in sanity". His later pieces aren't the works of a crazy person. :-)

      ​@@emilgilelsYou make a strong point, but I have to disagree on the claim that his decline in mental health had little to no effect on his compositions. For the last ten years of his life, Scriabin worked on a piece called Mysterium. Its premiere was said to have been a week long event that would bring the end to the world. Sadly this was never finished. If Scriabin was sane, I don't think he would attempt to create something as crazy as that. Not to mention his fear of his sixth piano sonata.
      Someone who thinks they are God is clearly not mentally sane, and that definitely reflected in his compositions.
