Johann Sebastian Bach (pronounced
[joˈhan/ˈjoːhan zeˈbastjan ˈbax]) (31
March [O.S. 21 March] 1685 -- 28 July 1750)
was a German composer and organist whose
sacred and secular works for choir,
orchestra, and solo instruments drew together
the strands of the Baroque period and brought
it to its ultimate maturity. Although he
introduced no new forms, he enriched the
prevailing German style with a robust
contrapuntal technique, an unrivalled control
of harmonic and motivic organisation in
composition for diverse musical forces, and
the adaptation of rhythms and textures from
abroad, particularly Italy and France.
Revered for their intellectual depth and
technical and artistic beauty, Bach's works
include the Brandenburg concertos; the
Goldberg Variations; the English Suites,
French Suites, Partitas, and Well-Tempered
Clavier; the Mass in B Minor; the St. Matthew
Passion; the St. John Passion; The Musical
Offering; The Art of Fugue; the Sonatas and
Partitas for violin solo; the Cello Suites;
more than 200 surviving cantatas; and a
similar number of organ works, including the
celebrated Toccata and Fugue in D Minor.
While Bach's fame as an organist was great
during his lifetime, he was not particularly
well-known as a composer. His adherence to
Baroque forms and contrapuntal style was
considered "old-fashioned" by his
contemporaries, especially late in his career
when the musical fashion tended towards
Rococo and later Classical styles. A revival
of interest and performances of his music
began early in the 19th century, and he is
now widely considered to be one of the
greatest composers in the Western tradition.
The Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue (BWV 903),
one of Bach's best known works, is an
extravagant work of virtuosity and bold
harmonic structure. It is an extraordinary
piece - large, sprawling, emotional, and
unique in its character compared to the rest
of Bach's music. The title of the piece
comes from either the fugue's chromatic
melody, or from the startling modulations in
the Fantasia. Either opinion is equally
acceptable and debated.The fugue begins in a
strict style but gradually loosens, revealing
elements of the fantasy. It opens with a
long and complex semitonal subject. The
fugue has three sections with eleven
entrances of the fugal theme. Every entry of
the theme contains an element of uncertainty,
yet each seems to be anticipated by the
previous one. The first section stays mostly
in d minor, while the second section
modulates as the theme is introduced in
distantly related keys. The third section
again returns to d minor and ends with
bravura passage work, scales, and
"organistic" octave doubling in the bass, not
unlike the closing of a toccata. Compared to
the fugues of The Well-Tempered Clavier, this
fugue is treated much more freely Tags : classical bach michel mañanes piano concert pianist pianista chromatic cromatica fantasy fantasia fuga fugue Бах классическая пианистка 古典鋼琴 クラシックピアニスト |

| #903- EVGA 9600GT 512mb review |
 |
NVIDIA's newest mid-range processor,
codenamed D9M, will make its official debut
as the GeForce 9600 GT.
Corporate guidance from NVIDIA lists the
initial GeForce 9600 GT shipments come stock
with a 650 MHz core clock and a 1625 MHz
unified shader clock. Unlike the G84 core
found on GeForce 8600 GT, D9M will feature a
256-bit memory bus interface. Coupled with a
900 MHz memory clock, NVIDIA calculates the
memory bandwidth at 57.6 GB/s.
The texture fill rate is estimated at 20.8
billion pixels per second. The company would
not indicate how many shaders or stream
processors reside on the D9M core.
Late last year, NVIDIA confirmed the D9
family will use TSMC's 65nm process node.
The company introduced its first 65nm
processor shrink in November 2007: the G92.
Other details of the D9M family have already
surfaced. ChileHardware published slides
yesterday claiming the GeForce 9600 requires
a 400W power supply that requires 26A on the
12V rail. Unlike previous mid-range GeForce
cards, the D9M will require a 6-pin
supplementary power connector.
NVIDIA publicly confirmed other details of
D9M: DirectX 10.1 support, Shader Model 4.0,
OpenGL 2.1 and PCIe 2.0 support just to name
a few.
Further documentation from NVIDIA claims the
9600 GT will also support the Quantum Effects
physics processing engine.
Like all NVIDIA processors, the GeForce 9600
is also HDCP compatible, though final support
still depends on vendor implementation.
NVIDIA declined to comment on expected price
of GeForce 9600. A representative for
NVIDIA would comment that the performance
increase between GeForce 9600 and GeForce
8600 is "almost double." Tags : phenom 8800gt 3870 3850 halo duke nukem forever penyrn g98 yorkfield 9800gtx nehalem farcry crysis 8800gts 512mb 9900 |

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750).
Chromatic Fantasy in D Minor (BWV 903).
I. Fantasia.
Scott Ross (Harpsichord).
Much of Johann Sebastian Bach keyboard music
has, over the course of the last several
decades, been transplanted from its
nineteenth century home in the piano
repertoire back to the care of
harpsichordists, its original interpreters.
There are really just a few Bach keyboard
works that are still widely and actively
performed by the world's pianists: the
Well-Tempered Clavier and the Goldberg
Variations, certainly, and the English and
French Suites - and the Chromatic Fantasia
and Fugue in D minor, BWV 903, a work of such
color and vitality that it would be foolish
to ever expect pianists to completely let it
go (even if that nature of the writing,
especially in the Fantasia portion, makes for
a piece that works better on a plucked
keyboard instrument such as the harpsichord).
The Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue survives in
several slightly different versions. BWV 903a
dates from some time before 1720; the version
we know as BWV 903 dates from about 1720,
when Bach was living and working in Cöthen;
and around 1730, after having moved to
Leipzig, Bach revised the piece again. The
work's name is not a random one: there is
indeed chromaticism in profusion throughout
both the wild, flowing arpeggiations and rich
recitative-like} passagework of the Fantasia
and the comparatively lean counterpoint of
the following fugue, whose subject is built
around a sequential chromatic ascent. The
work is a sizable one - 79 measures for the
Fantasia, 161 for the Fugue - and one that
takes strong, dexterous fingers to articulate
clearly. Tags : Bach Chromatic Fantasy BWV 903 Scott Ross |
