Bach ① Prelude and Fugue in C Major, BWV 531 ② Prelude and Fugue in D Major, BWV 532 ③ Prelude and Fugue in E Minor, BWV 533 ④ Prelude and Fugue in F Minor, BWV 534 ⑤ Prelude and Fugue in G Minor, BWV 535 ⑥ Prelude and Fugue in A Major, BWV 536 ⑦ Toccata and Fugue (Dorian) BWV 538 Performed by Helmut Walcha (Organ) Recorded: 1962 (④⑦), 1970 (①②③⑤⑥) This selection features famous pieces from Walcha's newly re-recorded stereo complete works. Walcha is a faithful inheritor of the Bach performance tradition, and his sincere and earnest approach, pouring his heart and soul into Bach's music, resonates with listeners. The selection is also excellent, allowing you to savor Bach's organ works deeply. The complete works won the Record Academy Award and were selected as number one in the 2017 publication "500 Masterpieces." This is a disc where you can fully enjoy Bach's organ music. The selection focuses on content rather than famous pieces. Among the many organists, Helmut Walcha overcame and surpassed the handicap of being completely blind. Each note of the organ is clear and easy to hear, the melodies draw a definite outline, and I feel it is a model performance with the benefits of memorization and complete harmony. What pure and pleasing music and tone! Despite being quite old recordings from 1962 and 1970, the very clear sound quality has cleansed my recently clouded heart. Famous pieces such as "Toccata and Fugue BWV 565," "Toccata, Adagio and Fugue BWV 564," and "Toccata and Fugue" and "Chorale 'Lord Jesus Christ, We Call to Thee'" are not included. It may be a selection for connoisseurs that prioritizes content. I recommend purchasing this as a second CD of Bach's organ works. Japanese edition, no obi, no scratches on the disc. 6 *Bulk purchase discount available (please comment in advance) 150 yen off for each additional item 150 yen off all items for 10 or more items (Discounts for single purchases are not available)
