While Buxtehude masterworks unleash their best when played onto big organs, this beautiful selection played onto a magnificent pedal harpsichord by an absolute master like Rogg is a blessing treat for harpsichord addicted folks like me. The superb flamboyance of Buxtehude polyphony gets out with a powerful and clean architecture and every single note comes with terrific vibes that only JSB could equalise.
@Bowen Jesus I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thank you Harpsicord Vinyl Gallery for your addition to RUclips of Lionel Rogg's rendition of Buxtehude, prelude and fugues. My favorite is about at 26:51 to 28:10. Written in about ....~ 1660(?) and recorded in 1967!!!! Wowtastic! Thank you again.
Hi Rosemary, such a pity this recording was never transferred to a CD or streaming service by a record company. Speaking about pities, last week I caught a cold during the Festival of Early Music in Utrecht and despite I had booked some wonderful seats, I had to abort visiting the festival.
@@HarpsichordVinylGallery I'm sorry I know how you love Utrecht..I love this recording Its very special I will learn things from it.Take care and keep uploading the great harpsichordists for me to learn!!
@@HarpsichordVinylGallery Well I don’t know what the stop setting is but there were times when the upper register sounded like the 4 foot tibias And especially when played legato
I never realized Buxtehude was so good until I heard him on the pedal harpsichord. If you've only heard him on the organ it sounds kind of mushed and with too much reverb. His genius is best heard on the pedal harpsichord. I can see why Bach walked 250 miles to be his pupil. Liked this so much I bought the vinyl.
In fact, Buxtehude is much better than Bach -- his music is healthy and sensual, written not alone with the head. He has much more fantasy and complexity, which you can see in all this sudden, seemingly spontanious changes, though he still works with the whole material and a perfect and sophisticated construction plan. I am so tired of this eternal dogma, that Bach must always be the best. In comparison to his predesessers he is ofen very boring and mechanical using over and over the same and a very predictable scheme. Just play the "non measured" preludes by Louis Couperin or a toccata by Matthias Weckmann or the suites by Johann Jakob Froberger -- Bach would never be able to write anything audacious like that. Every concerto by Vivaldi (and there are literally hundreds) is much more interesting and daring than the three Bach's dry and tame violine concertos.
Woweeeeeeeeee. Buxtehude on the harpsichord. Wonderful, wonderful stuff!!! Thanks for uploading :-D PS FA, who wrote the sleeve-notes, was a stalwart of the keyboard reviewers in the Gramophone magazine in the 1960s-80s... PPS - Harry Mudd, the recording engineer here, later went on to produce some wonderful recordings of the English choral tradition for Abbey records.
If we are talking about favourite recordings this is definitely one of mine ;-) The pedal harpsichord and the unknown Buxtehude (1967) and a great new player for the price of only one recording!
28:24 You see w/ Pedal Harpsichords (Pedal Clavichords and Pedal Pianos too), you have to release the note & replay it for every measure when the note is being held down for multiple measures in the sheet music due to the way a Harpsichord string vibrates after the Plectrum strums it.
A final comment - for a comparison with (IMO) the finest organ performance of 153, try and listen to Piet Kee's glorious playing at St Lauren's Alkmaar (on Chandos). A lovely comparison of two wonderful players...
OK, I will. I have heard before that Piet Kee did wonderful things on the big organ at Alkmaar (and elsewhere) but actually never took the courage to listen to his performances.
Pedal harpsichords.... every home should have one!
:-)))))
I wish that could be a reality 😭😭😭
邪魔やしいらん。1段のフレミッシュで十分。
I would be happy with a toy keyboard already =')
I wish you were my local MP
Lionel Rogg was my teacher's teacher so this is quite great.
And your students can say later on that he was the teacher of their teacher's teacher.
@@HarpsichordVinylGallery Lol...

I Love this. I also like how the ostinato in Buxwv 149 is as written.
this is the best music video on youtube.....music of supreme caliber you are unlikely to hear anywhere else.

Absolutely Marvelous Musician...Great Performance...Musically as well as Technically ...BRAVO !!!!!
What magnificent music, performed beautifully.
This is actually organ music and is even more effective on that more powerful instrument.
@@TheGloryofMusic Sure but you'll be hard pressed to find a performance as good as this
One of my favourite albums last time. Dziękuję 😊
ライオネルロッグのオルガンの演奏のはまあまあだけど、ペダルチェンバロはよくない。
@@陽天-g8g I disagree, pedal harpsichord is marvelous
A great musician in every respect.Thank you for this treasure!!

@@HarpsichordVinylGallery Just listening to Lionels English Virginalists ..Yeah !!
Hey man thanks for making it available on RUclips. I knew of Buxtehude works on organ but never Heard any on pedal harpsichord. Very cool
BRILLIANT !!! Tepper Michael.
Thanks, nice Performance!
Long lost favorite lp..thank you!
What a gorgeous sound and sometimes sounds like an organ
Most probably because you know these pieces as played for the organ I guess.

A true gem!
Now with this you understand why JS bach composed like that... He had a great master.
Predecessor, lol.
Perhaps if he had wanted to marry Buxtehude’s daughter….

We have to thank Lionel Rogg for this one.
Gettin jiggy with the baroque modulation - 21:34
BuxWV153-Beautiful fugue! we know why Bach learn a lot from him!
Happy to find this version of Buxwv161 passacaglia, though a bit slow for my taste.

Never released as a cd that is the reason why I published it here before it is forgotten.

25:57 Is that 8' and 2'? On a harpsichord? I've never experienced such a thing.
Easy to manage on a revival instrument like this. 16+4, played up an octave.

Bach was the one who heard it from Buxtehude ;-)
Ele foi influenciado por Buxtehude. Era aluno de Buxtehude no início de sua vida adulta.
