Looks like you agree ;-) Very well played and fine dynamics!

As a pianist this is one of my favorite pieces to play, the way the harmony seems to expand and contract is breath-taking. You took this very tricky piece with all its complex fingering and played it on MALLETS?! This performance must be applauded! The mysterious, echo-y sound of this instrument (pipe marimba?) makes it sound like an adventurous and stealthy video game theme.

I hear Pablo Casals said " Bach is the Treasure Box of Music" I quite agree with him veryvery much, and much more about your playing xylophone, especially turning conversation between with each the first motive is so graceful touch, I was moved so much. I wonder if Bach might have heard your xylophone, how should have said he? Yeah, anyway so nice natural touch playing that is on improvisation. I would feel where is p or where is f is oblivious of dynamics. that's depend on impulse which feels every day's irresistible. Yeah! (91yrs.Japanese) sorry strange English.

There is this thing about J.S. Bach music, that NO MATTER what it is played on - be it a cellphone ringtone, a set of exhaust pipes, a church organ, set of human voices, even drums, really! no matter at all -- it is captivating all the same. Indeed this performance is amazing, except for just one 'fermata' that was over-done, It keeps the voices, and is so gentle and beautiful... but again. It's so hard to know who's to applaud here...
