SOPP465: I would like to learn to play masterpieces of baroque music
b"This question was sent by Fedor, and he writes:\\n \\nHello Vidas,\\n \\nThanks for your helpful video and advices. I'm not a musician, but have primary music education on piano (7 years of music school). Many years I'm fan of organ music and play something in piano transcriptions. But, at one side, these transcriptions is often so difficult and I should simplify them, whereas in organ scores the musical tissue looks transparent, at second side, transcriptions still don't reflect power of originals, and, at the third side, I always dreamed to study playing on the king of musical instruments.\\n \\nFinally, I got an opportunity to assemble home midi-system with my Yamaha keyboard (88 keys) and midi pedalboard (Nord pedal Keys 27 keys), and I started to master original organ scores. I should say that it's not easy, but wonderful simultaneously! Due to your and others videos, I mastered correct sitting and simple playing on pedalboard, but it's more difficult for me to combine playing my feet with my arms. So I would like to kindly ask you to tell and show in more details exercises for the development of the pedal technique and methods of quick connections with hands score.\\n \\nAnswering your questions:\\n \\n1. I would like to learn to play masterpieces of baroque music (Buxtehude, Bach, Bruhns, Clerambault and others),\\n2. As music is not my profession, the main problem is in free time, but I try to practice regularly. At this time I should navigate on pedalboard as freely as on manual and make quick connections my feet with hands. Also, it would be useful to show the principles of correct legs changing and selection of heel or toe, on examples from Orgelb\\xfcchlein or something else.\\n \\nThank you again for education.\\n \\nWith my best regards and appreciation,\\nFedor"
