I saw him at the Performing Arts Center in Milwaukee in the mid 1970's. Arguably one of the greatest organists of our time.
-
Amazing.
-
I saw him play and met him backstage in the 70's. He was a delightful man and an absolute master at infecting the audience with the same enthusiasm he had for the music.
-
I had met Virgil in '76 (i think it was) at Hammond Castle. He was an amazing man, and great performer,,,organist.
-
7:00 is one of my favorite moments in music - this is extremely difficult to play even for seasoned masters

I will always think of my Dad when I hear Virgil Fox play Bach...
-
I have grown to at least like Fox's tempo in the fugue.

No-one really knows how Bach played. OK, I bet it wasnt like Fox. But were not listening to Bach, or to an C18th organ with C18th ears. Arguably Foxs personality gets in the way of Bachs music. But maybe Fox is so popular as he wasnt so in awe of Bach as to be afraid to include his own personality. Arrogant? So what! Hes a performer. And it was Bachs greatness that inspired Fox to play it in the first place. Cant we enjoy it for what it is, not what we think it should be? Sorry to rant!
