Description:
the final short part for harpsichord, at 0:26 the accent in the left had is shifted briefly to the off beat. I had heard Fats Waller and Art Tatum pull this trick several times on their records but had never heard it done before that until I heard it done in one of the movements in the French suite by Bach. I love the effect of it.

Bit of a clever bugger then? &mdash 05/28/08 - 07:57:20 AM
Very well played and, like your other pieces, you have caught the style very well.

Always nice to hear a bit of Alberti bass.

Cheers

Hi Mark- &mdash 05/28/08 - 09:39:18 AM
I think it's good to get interested in all types of music, I used to work at one time with a double bass player who in the day time worked with the Welsh Opera and at night used to play with a rockabilly band and that's true. Great rock'n'roll player too, really used to go for it on stage.

Thanks for listening,

John.

Well, ... &mdash 05/28/08 - 04:33:27 PM
...that was sure pleasant. It is so nice to hear a super little harpsichord number that is not only written well, but played expertly, too. I was just fishing around and found this. Glad I did.
Peace.

Differences &mdash 05/30/08 - 11:39:39 PM
Hi,

Q: Is there a way to tell what DAW was used to make the recordings? I'd like, for example, to know whch ones were created in GarageBand.

thank you Tokai and Pixelbird &mdash 05/31/08 - 03:29:19 AM
In answer to Pixelbird's question, none of these tracks were done on Garageband. They were all done using a very early verson- midi only- of Cubase. I still use Cubase today only now it's an SX version. Hope that answers your question. The phasing sound that can be heard here and there, particularly on the more orchestral tracks are probably to do with the tape it was eventually transfered to.

John.

Very authentic &mdash 06/02/08 - 08:35:57 AM
Ok, as a composition this is the real thing. It sounds convincing.

Eh, I keep hearing pops, for instance at 0:17 and 0:18. At 0:34-0:35 it's like someone ate your tape.

0:25 - 0:40 is absolutely wonderful

Your harpsichord sounds much more bassy than a real one does. That makes passages like 0:42-0:52 way too boomy. Also, there you're using chords in the left hand, which I believe is not idiomatic for the period. It makes the sound a bit too thick.

not a fave then Vic ay ? &mdash 06/02/08 - 11:20:49 AM
thanks anyway. the chords were actually intervals, I'd never use a chord at such depth in any music.

Wow &mdash 08/02/08 - 01:21:55 PM
Very authentic sounding Baroque music. Outstanding composition and superb performance. By the way I love Bach's French suites also.

[ Reply to This ]
thank you ace &mdash 08/10/08 - 05:04:34 AM
yes I like the French suites as well, I heard someone once refer to Bach's music as typewriter music, and although that doesn't sound very complimentary I know exactly what they mean ! - I'm pleased that you enjoyed this.

John
