These days, I organized data, artworks, etc.

I remembered a piano teacher with whom I studied as an adult at Kawai Omotesandou.  She recommended this suite - perhaps she liked playing it.  It was at that time that I finally learned it.   

I recorded this suite in 2023.  I played the 1st and 3rd movements on digital harpsichord.

I've been thinking about how to enjoy playing them (the first and third movements).

(I like the 2nd movement.)

This time I played all the movements on digital piano.  

I think that it is difficult to play since I may feel that in some parts the first notes of the right and left hands are not so harmonized well.

I found that I felt the score, as a set of shapes, may be beautiful - scale (big flows) and tiny  flows, etc.  

The piano teacher I mentioned said that she felt good whenever she played it well.  

This time I realized that whether I can play it through to the end may depend on the atmosphere and spirituality at the moment, as well as my physical condition and finger technique.

The above three tracks are the earliest recordings using ZOOM h1n.  

 ******

The first movement (recording track using ZOOM h1n) received a copy right claim for using an audio of a CD.  I submitted a dispute.

I bought a new recorder ZOOM H1essential, 32bit floating.

This recorder is different from h1n, I felt the sounds were different. 

I tried recording several times.

For ZOOM h1n, I used to record on the digital piano first, then played it back to capture the audio on the recorder.

I had to adjust to the input volume on ZOOM h1n to avoid clipping, sometimes capture the same piece for several times while changing the input volume.

With ZOOM H1essential, there is no input level knob, it is 32bit floating, no need to worrie about clipping.

I found that direct recording to ZOOM H1essential may be better.  I connected a phone output to my headphones to play the digital piano and connected another phone output to ZOOM H1essential to capture it.   

In Audacity, I found that less processing may be better.   If peaks are too high, I simply apply Normalize.  Then, I export it as 48k 24bit wav.

I found that I felt easy to play J. S. Bach Italian Concerto BWV 971 the first and third movements if the key is in minor.

I played the third movement starting in F minor, adding lights (Major keys), and ending in F minor.  

F minor

F Major (original)

itsuka italia

The title doesn't have a specific meaning.  

I think it may be a rhythmical phrase.

itsuka ikitai.  

I've never been to Italy.  I want to visit someday. 

ituka no italia.  

Sometimein Italy - ancient, or a past for someone, etc..

Rameau: Les tendres plaintes ラモー やさしいなげき

pulchraflow · Rameau: Les tendres plaintes ラモー やさしいなげき

 I turned the pages of the book of Rameau I have, I decided to play the pieces titled 恋の嘆き, complaint of Love.

I'm not familiar with  meaning of "tendre" love in court culture of at that time.  

I imagined a more abstract emotion, feeling, .

一番下にNouvelle Amilie.  そこから、真ん中Tendre-sur-Inclinationか、左上Tendre-sur-Reconnaissance,  右上Tendre-sur-Estimeに進んでいくらしい。

川の左側ルートだと、下の方にComplaisanceがある。そこから左上のTendre-sur-Reconnaissanceに向かう。

題名の"Plainte"は、嘆き、溜息の音型ということであるらしいが。

この地図の中にも、ずばりの言葉ではないけれども、書いてある。

Today I found an game app of polyrythm.  I watched it without playing or  listening to pulses.   ......  it gave me  a stomachache...  

I decided to practice 3:5......., but ......  

I imagined flower petals fluttering dancing and shades while playing it. 

After playing it, I learned that 3 and 5 are the numbers of petals on many flowers.
