Description
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) for this video
Q: What is the BWV number for this piece?
A: 578.
Q: What instrument is that?
A: The instrument here is a Post fortepiano (a sampled instrument).
Q: Who is performing?
A: This rendition isnt exactly a performance in the traditional sense; it was done by Stephen Malinowski (smalin) using the conductor program; you can read more about that here:
http://www.musanim.com/tapper/
Q: What do the colors in the bar-graph score mean?
A: The colors show which "voice" is playing. The bass (lowest) part is doubled, so the bottom two voices always move in parallel (at the distance of an octave).
Q: Is there a way I could make the bar-graph scores myself?
A: The Music Animation Machine MIDI file player will generate this display; you can get the (Windows) software here:
http://www.musanim.com/player/
There are lots of places on the web where you can get MIDI files; I usually go to the Classical Archives site first:

A: First, check my "to do" list:
