Where are the MORDENTs? Also trills in soprano voice and pedal? Performance is lackluster missing trills and ornaments Nice tempo. Some pedal notes are LATE!!! And NOT fashionably late, either. Didn't reach them in time?! Notes not connected where they should be. C+ because you really don't care. Perhaps too busy. Go listen to how Helmut Walcha plays it.
Nice tempo but he sped just a little in the middle section, not necessary with the written out increase in rhythmic activity. Also, with three manuals why not just change manuals instead of having an assistant to make changes?
I think this is one of the best performances of the fugue and its middle section. He brings it to life, whereas often it can seem too meandering by contrast to the toccata.
Fugue very well played, in a convincing way, IMHO. Toccata with a few mistakes, but who cares!
It was very worthwhile & great fun, both listening and watching. Bach is great.
Thanks much for uploading!

Nice tempo and agogic.
Organ could be more powerful.
Very symphatic organ-player
Thanks for this video
