Online Bach Lecture #1

Description

Since March 24th, Jan-Willem has been making a daily video about the music, life, and performance of J.S. Bach’s compositions. These mini-lectures are very popular, with a growing audience. Under the title “a little Bach every day,” he has now made over 70 short videos. This leaves us wanting more!

Because it is almost impossible to perform live, Jan-Willem talks and plays Bach for 50 minutes from his studio behind his own grand piano. Recorded in HD image and sound quality for a great viewing and listening experience. With thanks to Tijmen Zinkhaan (sound) and Edwin Vermeulen (image).

Program
5 preludes and fugues from Das Wohltemperierte Klavier
Allemande from the fifth French suite
First two-part Invention
Aria from Cantata 115 Bete aber auch dabei (arr. J.W. Rozenboom)
