Cadenza for Bach's Piano Concerto in D Minor

About this work

The cadenza takes material from Bach’s concerto and extends it within broader pianistic writing. It should seem to grow from the movement and prepare the orchestra’s return rather than form a detached parenthesis.

Locate thematic fragments and the basses that direct each sequence. The runs become easier to remember when connected to harmonic progression instead of a mere finger pattern.

Retain an inner tempo through the freer passages and decide in advance where to breathe. The final crescendo must lead into the next entry; avoid exhausting the sound before the closing cadence.
