      @@jeffjensen27 Bizarre comment - I know he lives near Manchester and is an Artist in Residence (Organist) at the Bridgewater Hall and does a regular lunchtime concert series on that organ and that he no doubt can access the organ quite easily if the hall is free.
      Over the years many commentators have asked Jonathan to perform and upload BWV 552 as it was 'missing' from the large number of JSB works he has uploaded on this channel and now suddenly here it is!
      So my comment was more philosophical wondering what made Jonathan decide to perform and upload this masterpiece to his collection. Whatever it was I'm grateful,

Being the widow (27 years) of another international organist/composer ( also from Manchester), I miss hearing brilliant organ music, so your concerts keep me 'topped up', and the memory of my late husband's playing alive.

    BWV 552 was the very first Bach organ work I ever heard. I was 13 and had a vinyl LP of E- Power Biggs pounding this out this work on the Flentrop at Harvard. Yes the Christmas of 1974 was wonderful indeed. Jonathan's performance here even beats out the old master--I'm certain somewhere E. Power is nodding in approval. Great Job guys!

    Books are VAT and duty free but I don't know if this applies to CDs.

    In my most respectful and humble opinion from a person who has taken lessons on the organ but didn't have what it takes to perform...
    The 16" posaune distracted from the prelude as a whole..the 16' fagott would have been a better choice.
