Somehow it never got the press that all the govenor/government protesting got at our state capitol over the last many weeks! I can't imagine why. _________________________ 1904 Henry F.

Tim Adrianson Full Member Registered: 08/07/10 Posts: 430	I'll have you know I was responsible for a full 1/12 of the "Bach around the Clock", in Madison WI! Originally I had said that I would provide roughly a half hour, but then the Moderator asked if I could extend that to an hour -- which I did. If you're curious about the program: Arioso (transcribed Max Perari) WTC Prelude/Fugue in F# Minor, No 14 Bk 2 French Suite No 5 (no repeats) WTC Prelude/Fugue in G Minor, No 16 Bk 2 WTC Prelude/Fugue in E Major, No 9 Bk 2 Chaconne in D Minor, transcribed by Johannes Brahms for left hand alone. I'm pleased to say that it was a very responsive piano. There were some fluffs, which I expected "going in".It's grueling, though, to play a full hour!

argerichfan 7000 Post Club Member Registered: 11/15/06 Posts: 7472 Loc: Pacific Northwest, US.	The P&F in E minor, 'The Wedge' (for organ), has always been the outstanding Bach composition in my life. Happy Birthday, JS! (Horribly difficult, thanks.)

mrenaud 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 01/29/02 Posts: 1289 Loc: Switzerland	I like the Passacaglia and the Prelude and Fugue in e minor, but for me, his organistic masterpiece is the great Fantasy and Fugue in g minor (BWV 542). Learning it took me quite a while and cost me lots of nerves, but it was totally worth it. _________________________ I have an ice cream. I cannot mail it, for it will melt.
