@@jaikee9477 Some Renaissance composers accomplished contrapuntal feats that rivaled Bach, but the difference is that with those composers ingenuity was almost an end-in-itself, whereas with Bach's music expression is always foremost.
Another recording of Van Doeselaar playing Bach. Still struck by the combination of mature clarity combined with a youthful vivacity to his playing. What a treasure to end my day with #547 played by a Master.
Has anyone here ever noticed what the prelude in this magnificent piece is about? Bach turns the eight-note major scale into a tribute to the Trinity? (It is, after all, composed in 9/8 time.) Do-re-mi; mi-fa-sol; sol-la-ti; do. If you never have, listen to it again with that in mind, remembering that the Trinity is praised in almost every piece Bach wrote.
I have always especially found the prelude to be uplifting. When I was an agnostic I thought it was celebrating the glory of Man, but when I became a Christian I understood that Bach is celebrating the glory of God. His glory is further reflected in the composer's genius which reveals the Imago Dei in us.
@@herrickinman9303 you're right about @giacomo zaccone's use of the word "prominent," but this is certainly a piece of "Church Music."

A priest's Homily is also not part of the liturgy, but you would still consider it a "church" thing. Finally, Bach wrote nearly all his music "for the glory of God," can't get much more church than that.

This piece is in fact one of the favorites of my father who was a reasonable good organist (he died suddenly in 2003). The theme of the preludium reminds me of the dutch liturgical song 'De steppe zal bloeien' (text: Huub Oosterhuis; melody: Antoine Oomen) that is often sung during the Easter time. If this song was the last song of a mass, my father played this preludium and fugue. It is in fact a magnificent piece of music. I myself use the preludium melody as ringtone of my cell phone.
Dear NBS, I think you should really start recording all the other organ pieces by other composers played by these fabulous organists of the Netherlands. There are many great recordings of other instruments out there but Great recordings of organs pieces are rare. Even the conditions to have good recordings on organ pieces are rare; but you have everything; incredible organs! incredible halls!! incredible organists!!! incredible technicians!!!! It is not the matter of views, if you don't capture these magical moments it would be a great loss to humankind!!!!! Even Bach would say...'pity'
Die Fuge von BWV 547 habe ich ab Takt 15, 2º Teil bis Takt 35 immer auf dem 2º Klavier gespielt (am liebsten Schwellwerk oder BW). Dás, und vor allem dass in der gesamten Fuge die 1/8 Fugenfiguren konsequent nicht legato sondern ostinato gespielt werden entwickelt gegenüber den 1/16, die legato zu spielen sind, eine enorme intrinsische Dynamik. Beide verleihen die Fuge mít der eigefühten Terrassendynamik einen enormen Schub zur Gesamtdynamik und Gestaltung.
l generally like pieces in 9/8 metre, like the splendid Prelude here. 9/8 it's present also in the Chorales BWV 650 and 674; the Chorale BWV 608 "In dulci jubilo" has an equivalent metre, 3/2 with crotchet triplets.
This man plays the organ with his whole body (and soul). He reminds me of Bob Dylan playing the piano in one of his manic moods! (This is a compliment)
@@cromorno8749 OK. Thanks for the clarification. Anyway there are organs in which there is only a bordun in the manuals and do have a 32 reed in the pedals. Not in this tradition, though. Bach's celebrated uncle had just such an organ.
Can someone explain to me why the tuning of this organ sounds a half step sharp? It’s interesting to me that this baroque organ is tuned sharp when my understanding has been baroque tunings have been flatter than todays standard.

van Doeselaar is a majestic organ player, and this is my favourite organ piece, and find it difficult not to cry in some of the Prelude's passages.

When the organist starts playing, everyone else listens, truly the king o instruments !
A wonderful piece! My sister shall be exiting the church on her wedding day to this next week!
Apart from the superb music, the ability of this organist to coordinate moving ten fingers and two feet is absolutely impressive.
A very prominent performance by Doeselaar and a great emotion for me to hear from this great piece of Church Music from the Kantor of Leipzig
_Prominent_ means famous. _Emotion_ is a state of mind. This piece is not "Church Music." It has no liturgical function.
