Bach - Largo from Keyboard Concerto in f minor

It’s rare for me to share single movements outside of larger works...especially if the work isn’t so “large” [in its entirety the f minor concerto is only about 10 minutes], but this piece has stuck with me recently. Thanksgiving morning, being hectic in trying to get the turkey carved, getting the desserts pulled out, making sure everyone has water, all of that made my house buzzing with activity and unnecessary stress. My parents asked me to put on some music and while I would have had fun putting on some Stravinsky, the better side of me knew I should just throw on the “Bach for Meditation” cd we happened to have in the house. And this movement was on the cd playing while we all ate, no surprise that this movement became a staple for “top classical hits” compilations you’d find at Target. But none of this is as superficial as I’m making it sound. When they say Meditation, they are probably marketing it as “relaxing” but instead, I like to think of “meditation” music as being introspective. This piece opens with a calm, single line melody going over a stable paced bass line. Although Bach didn’t care for the early versions of the piano, I have to say that the work sounds better to me with piano than on harpsichord. The lyricism shines more, and the atmosphere becomes even more delicate. For a moment to breathe during the holidays, a moment to sit back on this Saturday morning and smile.
