    J. S. Bach - Invention No. 8 BWV 779 in F played by Stephen Marquiss

    These videos of short pieces showcase my journey from frustration to facility in playing in my 30s/40s. As an adult, I've honestly faced up to my challenges and tirelessly investigated them. The groundbreaking, holistic framework for technique that I've developed, Piano Portals, flies in the face of much of the advice I was offered over many years of formal training. It makes you the expert through deepening self-awareness, not dogma. It spotlights oft-neglected elements of able players' techniques, offering fresh, transformational points of focus for your practice. Through it, I've accessed the holy grails of cantabile playing, exquisite phrasing, timing, dynamic control, ornamentation and balance, not to mention self-expression, deep connectedness, communcation and joy. I also perform happily and assuredly from memory, which I didn't for 19 years previously.
