  • Do you have any evidence that Bach would have not given each of the quavers equal weight? How does it de-characterize the line? Do you think "phrasing" appropriate to this music? And how was the final cadence weakly placed? I'm sorry that you didn't enjoy this performance. I did! :)

  • Where were the funny offbeat accents, then? And, of course, she's dressed up because she's being filmed.

  • Diane Bish is one of the greatest musicians of modern time, If not the best in my opinion. She brings the simple sounds to life and reminds us we dont need electricity to make lovely music. just Diane Bish and a organ for her to dance on

  • Her clothing is awesome hahahaha GREAT organist!!!

  • @MEPPO06 Looking forward to your upload, so we can hear you play it.

  • I'm quite impressed with her playing..

  • The beginning theme sounds like O God our help.

  • Ethic "inspired by Arp Schnitger" according to the organbuilder.

  • 1979 a completely new organ is installed in the ancient case.

    Its ethic is neoclassical and its stop names a mixture of French and German!

    There is no swell box and the opresence of a Gambe 8' on the Great does not signify "romantic".

    Bach specifcally asked for one in a rebuild.

  • I agree. Diane Bish is an acclaimed

    musician of the first rank. Her ability

    rivals any concert organist of note today.

    Thanks Diane for your generous contri-

    bution to our musical education.

  • while the phrasing in the fugue 2 is not as developed as it could of been, its not absent - it can be clearly heard around 6.00, fugue 1's style might have been more precise, but to say that the tempo was destroyed is a bit harsh. It is a commendable interpretation. She's no Richter though I grant you that!!
