Icwiles, you shouldn't have put the score into your video, now every schoolboy is going to mark the B's:-) But, seriously, thanks a lot, decent playing and it's fun to follow the score. Buxrehude's definitely not a waste of time, great man and pedal virtuoso.
We're used to the Peter's edition. I would almost bet this performance used the Hedar/Hansen edition. The problem with Buxtehude is that his manuscripts are written in organ tabletur, which shows the position of the hand. Deciphering tabletur is a different problem than comparing written notes. Still, Buxthude's music is so darned interesting that it's worth the effort: and I'm sure JSB would agree with me.
Very good; who is playing? The difference in the printed and played edition is that the printed is the Peters (gg) and the player is reading from another edition (Hansen?) which spells gb; gb is probably correct (the fugues develop the theme further).
@Totennebel it's a misprint in the peters edition, i'm playing that for my juries next week, and my professor check my score against a breikopf edition. And @rsns311257 is correct in saying that the first fugue develops the pedal theme further.
This is not a bad performance. There are many nice qualities about it. But--and please do not take this as an offense, as it is just one learning organist's opinion--the middle voice is completely neglected and not sustained properly at all. It makes the music a bit choppy and hard to listen to, which is a shame, since this organ sounds like quite a nice instrument.
I think There is a mistake in the pedal part, it is G then B et not G then G

I very much like this interpretation, you have a feel for the subtleties of timing.

The theme that occurs in the pedal part at 0:27... Is G-G-C-D-Eb-C-D right?
You seem to have played G-B-C-D-Eb-C-D.. Or is that a misprint?

@Totennebel You have right. Everyone play them wrong... I can't find good video without this wrong played pedal...
