- This fugue was probably written by W.F. Bach, according to a Dutch scholar, Peter Dirksen, says Whiteley. Organs tuned to the Silbermann temperament were reportedly “excruciating” to hear in remote flat keys such as F minor.
In this performance John Scott Whiteley transposes it up to G minor, where it becomes more possible, still using the Silbermann temperament.
More about “Paths that lead away from Bach” video series:
In 2015 we recorded a series of performances by John Scott Whiteley, for a DVD entitled “Paths that lead away from Bach”. The sessions took place in the dramatic setting of Selby Abbey, where a Viscount Regent 356 organ was temporarily installed while the Abbey’s famous Hill organ was being restored.
“Paths that lead away from Bach” is an interesting exploration of associations between Bach’s music and that of his disciples, associates, rivals and pupils of the time. We start with two pieces by JSB himself, moving through pieces that may have been by his sons, to those by the less well-known Kauffmann, Krebs, Schneider, Kellner, Kittel and Müthel.

Som maravilhoso! Interpretação impecável.
Es gibt keinen faktischen Beweis, dass Wilhelm Friedemann der Komponist ist. Es sind immer nur stilistische Gründe, die vorgetragen werden, die aber durch nichts belegt sind. Pieter Dirksen sagt lediglich, das Stück passe nicht in J. S. Bachs Leipziger Spätstil passt. Was heißt das? Wie definiert Dirksen den "Leipziger Spätstil"?
