That was wonderful!! I've never heard that piece transcribed for piano before.
Here's another Bach piece transcribed for piano (unfortunately in two parts).

This Sinfonia (Cantata prelude) is identical with the Prelude from Partita in E major for solo violin, BWV 1006. Apparently, Bach was particularly fond of this composition as he made his own transcription. Uncharacteristically, the cantata was performed several times during Bach's stay in Leipzig.
There has been much debate on performing Bach's works on instruments different from those they were composed for, especially when this implies further arrangements - but I find this performance convicing and it adds favorably to piano literature.
Another *reading* of BWV 29:

Corno Dolce: this has always been one of my favorite reditions of the piece..not to many videos of Paul Jacobs playing.
I wish you the Best for each day, now and always.

I had the priveledge of attening a master class that Mr. Jacobs gave when he was last in Sydney, and to two recitals: one at the monster at Sydney Town Hall and the other at the beautiful, and far more modest, Great Hall of Sydney University.
He played all his music from memory, not surprising as that's his "thing". More interesting was his wonderful sense of music and phrasing. He is truly a wonderful performer AND a terribly modest one at that.
I'm not an atheist and I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many different languages. The child knows someone must have written those books. It does not know how. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn't know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God.

And to think that one of his students is the *Wild Child* Cameron Carpenter
Never heard of Cameron Carpenter I'm afraid ...
Do check out youtube for his original interpretations - He does quite a job with his feet on Chopin's *Revolutionary Étude*.
His feet make you dizzy watching them. Very good though, here's the link.
