Stupid question about Bach not being played at auditions [View all]
I heard somewhere that Bach pieces are typically not allowed to be used in piano auditions. Does anyone know the reason for that?
I’m not planning on auditioning for anything anytime soon, but I’ve been working on the Franz Liszt transcriptions of BWV 542 (fantasy and fugue in G-) and 543 (prelude and fugue in A-). If I were to choose a piece to show off my abilities, I’d go for either of those.
