Really great performance! I don't know how organists accomplish that 3-part polyphony in the Fugue! Great pedal-work, excellent registration choices. Nice one-foot 4ths in Fantasia! Nice organ and excellent acoustics in this chapel. (from Canada)
Would be interesting to learn something about the organ. And where is it? I assume it is based on the classic baroque principal chorus, with the Hauptwerk on the bottom manual. The English organs with their diapasons are not ideal for Bach's compositions.
Hi Hans - thanks for the question! This organ is in Toronto, Canada here at St. Basil's Catholic Parish and is built in the French Romantic style by Casavant. The organ is equipped with a Great/Choir transfer which allows the organist to play the Great division on the bottom manual.
@@basilstoronto So I got that totally wrong! I assume that the French Romantic style is even further away from the baroque German style. Here in New Zealand most organs are in the English style based on a diapason chorus. Only a handful of organs here have a principal chorus (which I miss). Anyway, your organ sounds great, a good complement to your playing.

It's actually 4-part harmony.
Tuning: 0c: A4 = 440Hz
