Last Monday I performed the J.S. Bach Aria BWV 988, from the Goldberg Variations. It wasn't a train wreck, but it didn't go quite as I had hoped.

I'm sure many of you will relate to this video which shows the performance with a variety of humorous thought bubbles along the way, at my own expense of course:)

And despite the 'mishap' you'll see and hear in the video, thank you to the many folks in this forum who gave me feedback of my last video of this piece that I posted several weeks ago. I incorporated quite a bit of that feedback.

If this makes you laugh, smile or elicits any other emotions or reactions, please share. Let's have some fun.

Of course, you violated the Prime Directive of pianists: Never admit you made a mistake! Your grimace gave it away. You are hereby banished to Vulcan to learn how to forsake your emotions!

Just kidding around, of course.

You'd be amazed at how many pianists halt, back up, and start again when they flub it. You just managed to carry forward somehow. Good for you!

Thanks Chris:) Funny.
