google translate gives an ambiguous english rendering of this.

Yes, I am working on pieces.

J.S.Bach's Little Fugue in G Minor BVW 578 interests me. I've written out parts of it on a staff worksheet of my own design.

David,
The videos should be uploaded to YouTube. Here you just place the link from the browser.

Answering your questions about converter and Fuge that you would like to play.

I am also a rebel. This is exactly why I created the new system of teaching music on the first place. I can relate to your desire to play what you want to play.

However, my program is NOT about you learning one or anothe piano piece. We don't sale fish. We give people the net to catch the fish.

Your eye-hand coordination, ability to grasp keys and notes, ability to coordinte both hands and fingers, ability to fluently sight-read - this is your capital. Not a song.If you have such 'funds', you can play any piece from the sheet music

This is exactly why I am asking for you to share your progress in Gentle Piano. The numbers on the right and left part of the screen will tell me (and footage) will help me to understand, how much do you have in your musical skills 'banking account' and what is the best way to turn your investment into golden mine for your benefit.

We have thousands of piano pieces that has this hiden nutriences to fullfill this goal.

Hellene,

Thank you for the considered answer.

I wasn't clear. I need to do both your program as directed for the treasures of fluent grand staff sight reading and coordination. Also, I need to mesh your notation with the notation that makes sense to me as a physicist and mathematician.

Also I must spend time on the music I love. It was being forced to learn music I didn't love as a child that drove me away from the piano. If I had been taught to play themes and passages from the Concertos and Symphonies I loved while learning to read them from full score, I would have succeeded. Before finding your teaching method I was trying that on my own. I didn't want to hide that from you, thus the attachments.

Please don't take offence, or think me ungrateful for your method. It is necessary for you to systematize and standardize, for economy of management and in order to offer interactivity at such a low price.

Human creativity requires contrariness and rebellion. Human culture requires cooperation and conformity. The tension exists in both of us, don't you think?

An example, certainly above me, is our beloved Tarkovsky. The product of his creativity we love, but he died in exile. Do you know that during his last months all he wanted was to listen to Bach?

David, how are you and your computer?

I just received a very interesting letter:

Back in the 1990’s when I was taking piano lessons I said to my teacher “It’s a shame piano notation evolved the way it did, it would be much easier to read and learn if we read top to bottom vertically. Unfortunately, reading left to right forces us to make a 90 degree turn in our heads to match that up with the keyboard, making it harder to learn.” She looked at me like I had rocks in my head. She was an old school pianist classically trained in London. “All instruments notate music left to right, that’s just the way it is.” She said. So, needless to say, I was overjoyed to see your software using this technique to teach reading. Now I know that I’m not crazy and there really is a better way to learn!

Imagine, how much fire and resistance my new system facing every day. In order to keep strong and stronger we have to optimize the actions.

We created a library with a lot of beautiful pieces (including Bach). Students that pass them can learn the most advanced pieces by regular sheet music. The good news is : we are all pioneers. It is also the bad news.

Do you have Bach Inventions 9.7?

Hellene,

Thanks for asking.

I'm just ordering its replacement.

I can operate the touch pad and an on screen keyboard in the old computer, so it may become dedicated to the Allegro2 and soft piano.

It is considerate of you to put up the inventions.

In a week I meet with the three professors who work with me on the survey of the Andromeda galaxy for pulsar signals. Did I explain, we had 40 hours of the Green Bank Observatory for that, and recorded the signals received. My task is to write and operate computer programs to search the 8TB of data. I'm not spending enough time with soft mozart, but that should improve.
