I finally got the audio file from last week's concert fixed up -- here it is:

A blog about musical pursuits and experiences
I am on a quest to learn all 48 sets of preludes and fugues in Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, "learning" including memorizing. I thought it might be interesting to collect all of my Bach efforts in one place; see the list below. Clicking on the link will open the recording so you can listen to it.
The recordings are in reverse chronological order (oldest last). The earliest was recorded in 2006.I am NOT implying that these are definitive interpretations! Rather, this is meant to document my development as an amateur pianist.
I have actually learned these others as well but never tried recording them; maybe someday I will go back and resurrect them:WTC II/20 in A minor
WTC I/21 in B flat major
WTC I/1 in C major
WTC I/2 in C minor
CURRENTLY WORKING ON:
WTC I/2 in C minor

This is terrific! Love the echo - sounds like you are playing in a huge stone hall. I think the first part was used In a luxury car commercial.
Thanks, Bill. The concert was in a church with lovely acoustics, so what you hear is how it was -- no artificial enhancement!
I've read that the Prelude of this suite is the single most popular cello piece of all time, and the most played. Kind of like Prelude No. 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier, Book !.
The quality of your blogs and conjointly the articles and price appreciating.
