I had learned piano when I was young, and now I'm learning it again. I'm interested in Bach's pieces and BWV816 is the first piece my teacher suggested to learn.
The following is the first 9 and half bars of BWV 816 Gavotte.
It start with incomplete bar. According to the music lessons from my childhood, one has to consider the dynamic when they play anacrusis music. So should this gavotte be played like B G / D EF# G E / B - E C / A BC DB CA / ...? (melody for the highest part, boldface font is for forte)
I tried to play in this manner, but I found it unnatural to me; I feel better when I play it just like it is not an anacrusis.
My teacher said she cannot answer my question. I want to refer to some recordings, but it is still confusing. How should I put bach's anacrusis when I play it?
Thank you.
