    What a brain Bach must have had...imagine all those notes bouncing around in there! And, he produced so much of it! This was fun to listen to!

    J. S. Bach in one of his many heights. Imbued by Heaven with an uncommon innate harmony, he's simply incomparable in the sheer depth of harmonization to be seen in his compositions. And here Mr. Scott does profound justice to this piece.

  • @tomtheriault4589

    Music at the summit of quality, both in the composer and performer. Sheer joy to hear. Heartfelt thanks to J.S. And to T&J!

  • @jimhill4725
    @jimhill4725 2 года назад +16

    Such ecstatic joy in this unparalleled "Great Fugue" = so aptly named to distinguish if apart from His "Little Fugue in G Minor" - and coincidentally also (in my opinion) to emphasize its pre-eminence among all other fugues as the greatest ever. It's no wonder that Sebastian fathered so many children in between bouts of creating such orgasmic music.

    Для меня нет лучше композитора, чем Бах. Это настоящая мощь истинно человеческого искусства. Хочется не плакать, а рыдать.

    He composed this all these countless Melodie’s faster than we could write the notes. To say Bach was a genius is a massive understatement. He is in a league all of his own.

    This has to be my favourite organ work of all time, and the one I get the biggest 'kick' out of playing. I'm always fascinated how every organist has their own way of emphasising the first subject entries when they appear, and how the manuals are registered - all equally valid of course. Thanks for sharing this with us and thanks to Tom who, as always, made a brilliant recording.

    Hi Jonathan, thanks for posting "'The Great" Fugue from BWV 542 again. It was a fantastic performance! As I posted over 12 months ago, for some reason, I keep going back to your full performance at St Mary's Cathedral, in Newcastle, UK in 2019 on the (late) Kenneth Tickell organ! For me , that was one of the very best performances that you (and others) have ever given of this piece on RUclips! Best wishes to you both, as always.

    This is just to great! Those panning zooming in and out of the scene, reflects on how human worries grows dwindled upon Bach´s masterpieces. Yes indeed Jonathan crosses through the piece mastering all the instrument's resources and melodic hide bouts... but a noteworthy nodding must be glimpsed upon Tom's concerns of properly accompanying the whole spectacle; for the size of the instrument and the humongous building surrounding it, task becomes behemoth. Add Jonathan genius and then you have an instant difficult to package... but it is fair to say Tom, does it again!. Way to go!!!

    What scores do you use for these pieces that were originally written for organ? I would like to play this and a few other pieces from your channel, but your website only sells the transcriptions of orchestral pieces. I really like the layout of your arranged scores with all of the registration and details.
