July 21

Sorry to post so late — how many of you learned this one?  And one of you may have something to say about tomorrow’s P&F.  🙂

Topically, Lura Johnson has posted a recording — in one take! — of the entire Book I on the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra’s FaceBook page here.  She will host a Fugue workshop and a monthly Bach Brunch (!) in the fall, see or sign up on her own (fabulous) website here.

Comments:

Celia: Sorry I have been a little behind on this, but I learned No. 21 in Bb Major – it’s still one of my favorites! It was really fun to play it again, even though I cannot play the prelude nearly as quickly as I used to.

Helen:  Yup, it’s a lot of fun. And you weren’t the only one to have performed it. Did Katie learn this one? Nadia?

Katie: Yes! I did learn this one. I was over-confident when I got to it though and started much faster than I should have. It’s been a while since I played it 😛

Helen: If I had a dollar for every piece I’ve started too fast and had to slow down, I’d be a lot wealthier. But I’m glad you were enthusiastic!
