Since first hearing this composer's works played by Piet Kee at St Bavo then at Roskilde, I knew that Bruhns sometimes played violin whilst at the organ console, but could never figure out how he could have done so. Your most welcome video, gentlemen, goes well along the road to settling that score. Bravo!
Beautiful to see the exploration of the music by you both. You are, of course great musicians. On a side note, I kept watching the moment when Balint would be hit by the violinist's bow ... of course it did not happened. Thanks for the lesson and nice to see the notes of music on screen. Good production!
Many thanks for this helpful exploration with a historically informed violinist! You can find a description by Johann Mattheson (Hamburg) in his encyclopedia "Musikalische Ehrenpforte" from 1740: Bruhns playing his violin like there were three or four, adding an organ pedal voice himself on his organ.
As understanding so well the desire to be as creative above all else when music became passion. Beautiful. In addition what wonderful acoustics inside a church. Thank you +Balint Karosi

I heard from my professor that Bruhns was even able to play violin and accompany that with organ pedal - at the same time! And this "Harpeggio" part of the Praeludium should be an example of it.
Nicolaus Bruns was not only a Composer, but more a violinist and Organist. He worked in Husum and one of his teacher was D. Buxtehude. In Husum the story was tomd that Bruns played the violin with pedals on organ.
Grandi! meraviglioso!
Fantastico! Stupendo!
Thank you for some very interesting insights and perspectives on the great Bruhns Praeludium. Very insightful!
Absolutely amazing, took away my breath! Can you please make a full arrangement for violin and organ and record it 😊

You should record this all the way through on organ some time!
The chromatic fugue you played reminded me of Sweelinck’s “Ricercare Brevis”!
The great Orpheo from Bruhns.
