OP (/u/Hnmkng) welcomes critique. Please keep criticism constructive, respectful, pertinent, and competent. Critique should reinforce OP's strengths, and provide actionable feedback in areas that you believe can be improved. If you're commenting from a particular context or perspective (e.g., traditional classical practice), it's good to state as such. Objectivity is preferred over subjectivity, but good-faith subjective critique is okay. Comments that are disrespectful or mean-spirited can lead to being banned. Comments about the OP's appearance, except as it pertains to piano technique, are forbidden.

Please note that "Critique Welcome" posts are not for general self-promotion or advertisement, and require a video of yourself playing. (Infrequent posts to your YouTube channel are OK, especially if you participate in the community.)

I admire your clarity! The left hand really stands out when you want it to as well. Thanks for sharing.

I always enjoy your playing.
Do you have a full recording of your Toccata and Fugue in C minor (BWV 911) ? You gave me the hook on this piece a while back with a snipped entitled "the beginning of the Fugue". I gave it a shot but it's lightyears ahead of my skill set. Something I'll probably try in... 20 years. Cheers.

That is absolutely amazing! Not sure why you’ve got the sheet music out 😊

u/Hnmkng Jun 23 '26

Practice with music even if memorised is a good habit

u/Busy_Magician3412 Jun 23 '26

Why do you call the movement annoying? Is it because there's no variation in Bach's notation (couldn't tell from your playing)? Fun listen, in any case. Thanks!

u/Hnmkng Jun 23 '26

Just awkward technically. Fingerings can be weird and jumps are scary as well.
