Playing Piano



One of the ideas for blog posts were to write something that you are currently doing with music, so I thought I would try to write one post on that. I’m currently working on a piece of music for my own purposes called Prelude and Fugue in C minor from Bach’s Well Tempered Clavier. To be honest I am having a bit of trouble with it. It isn’t really a difficult piece, but it is for me. Apparently piano majors should be able to play this piece to even be about to audition for Temple. I have thought about learning to play this many times before. I always was worried about learning the Prelude section of the piece. Ironically this has turned out to be easier to learn then the second have. It only seems to be a series of four different pitches for each hand played in a easy pattern that looks difficult. The part that actually will be tough is the Fugue. It is slower than the first section, but since it is a fugue I have to be able to play what seems like three different voices with only two hands. Hopefully I will be able to be able to get better at this piece soon.
