Bach Sonata No. 1 Adagio with Hagai Shaham

As for all his Sonatas and Partitas, it's one of the most beautiful examples of polyphonic music for soloists, containing elements like great expressivity, freedom in tempo (rubato), and use of ornaments which give to this music a specific character. Main aims developed by the teacher: 1) Managing Dissonances 2) Breathing Timing 3) Synchronizing positions 4) Upstrokes vs Downstrokes. Professor: Hagai Shaham Student: Suzan Yanki Karatas
