Triosonate III, d moll (BWV 527)

After being absent from the concert hall for quite a while, I have finally something to share again. I devoted a lot of time to pursue one of my personal goals: learn Bach's 6 Triosonatas.

Needless to say they are quite difficult. And actually a bit beyond my playing ability. Nevertheless, it's a valuable learning experience. I am gradually getting better in playing the organ and I am training myself to practise and play longer and longer pieces.

This recording session taught me that besides all the technical difficulties, I have to keep watch of simple things like tempo as well. It's strange that whenever the technical difficulty in this sonata rises, instead of playing slower, I start to play faster. It's probably something to do with anxiety and not breathing properly.

Anyway, that's the next challenge: forget all the demanding technical stuff and pay attention to the basics of music making: tempo and phrasing.

Nevertheless, I am quite happy with this performance and with the fact I played an entire Bach Triosonata without too many wrong notes.
