Coming at you a little later than usual today. This morning I did some errands, grabbed groceries, picked up a few things at Home Depot… and then sat down to play a bit of Bach.<br/><br/>Somehow I haven’t shared any Bach on here yet, even though he’s been such a big part of my musical life on both violin and viola! Today I picked up the Prélude to the Second Suite in D minor for solo cello (BWV 1008). Violists don’t have any Bach written specifically for their instrument so we’re always stealing both the violin and cello repertoire 👀<br/><br/>You probably know the Prélude from the First Suite in G major (Yo-Yo Ma plays it all the time), but this D minor one is quieter, more introspective. It feels like Bach’s spiritual side. I learned it years ago but had to bring it back for an audition recently, and it was my favorite thing to play on that list.<br/><br/>Here I’m just sharing the first dozen or so measures. I hope you enjoy this bit of Bach for your Saturday afternoon 🎻<br/><br/>#musicstr<br/><video controls width="100%" class="max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700"><source src="https://blossom.primal.net/115b1d319617f65cdc26fb9e33417e154351b4611e42bc6fcff1e5484e8c85ce.mov"></video> 2025-10-18T17:50:31Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0rxsax70r29m84lryqlkfp3hvuea27qptnqpcwcwzz0mgp58s9lqzyrf09lgv2kuvjhwnx46psmqmkw8ldl378wz7rq3shnwzgf389r7uvqvjq96 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq9rdrky3sjhlean47za3qc0yasdjxl2q675smenhcj62lx94pm6qpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgs38t3y'>nevent1q…8t3y</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Haha so fast!! 🤣 2025-09-08T13:40:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrpm0p88v3rzcvus09yy2n5qjgzfgrcah9zjcgmcc3fzv59jyd98czyrf09lgv2kuvjhwnx46psmqmkw8ldl378wz7rq3shnwzgf389r7uvkep86f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0up7yph37243zaa8l3ccrc73uf04rdzke3h06qfwvtm85r0xrnlspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3eryvfwvdhk6ksl6sc'>nevent1q…l6sc</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Do you think compression is necessary for iPhone videos? 2025-08-20T16:03:14Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsxxqks5zyygxfucjhghlql8pcrl58kvtd2sace5rvdck0muajg7zczyrf09lgv2kuvjhwnx46psmqmkw8ldl378wz7rq3shnwzgf389r7uvsw2dac 7th note, PART 1: <br/>OK so there was a frenzy of activity on my 6th note at the 11th hour last night!
