    I've always loved that fugue.

    At one time, I had that Brahms under my fingers, but, at that time, I struggled with the polyrhythm. Now that IDGAF, I should revisit.

    Nice playing, Horace. Very nice.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Thanks, Phibes and GK. That's my favorite of Bach's fugue too, George, though now I don't hear it as well because of the repetition. My teacher's favorite is the E major from book 2. I'm trying to understand why it's so great. I think my ear is not refined enough. I will learn it one of these days.

        I have been revisiting the Goldberg Variations. AGAIN! lol.

        1st Variation measure 14 is the bane of my existence right now. I think it's the most difficult measure in this piece.

          Messing around with some of the Guaraldi Christmas pieces. Also been noodling around with some old faves, Chopin, Debussy, Ravel, etc. I've been in the house a month now and it's nice to play the real piano again, so I just pick stuff up and read through it.

          After xmas I'll probably take on something new.

            I'm working on P&F in E Major from WTC2. Will probably perform it in April.

                Somewhere around Dallas. Maybe the same church as last time, or maybe not. I don't think my teacher uses the same venue every year.
