Very well played!! But I rather think it's the BWV 542.

Greetings!

It is indeed. Uploading too many videos at a time can be dangerous... (especially when it's late). Thanks for noticing (and for your comment).

Brilliantly well played!

The organ sounds brilliant!

Where can I find a CD that you have recorded?

I like 5:08-5:13! A minor tonic chord is played when closing the Fantasia. In most performances, a major chord is heard there. I don't know what Bach wrote, but I like the minor chord more. A major tonic chord does not fit in the piece I think...

Gracias Maestro.

6.58-7.02 orgasmo puro. Esecuzione magistrale. Bach è fuori dai limiti umani

Absolut fantastisch, jedes einzelne Zeichen gespielt vollkommen, war die Fuge eine Freude zuzuhören, wie es eines meiner Lieblingsstücke durch Junggesellen ist. Gut getan, und bedanken sich dafür, dass Sie sich teilen.

I've been looking for this piece for two years. Finally, I found it. Playing Bach on an organ, plus a complicated piece means years of practice. This man is amazing. He really understands what he is playing and gave such effort to perform such a masterpiece!
