Prelude 1 in C major BWV 846, from the Well Tempered Clavier Book 1 by J.S. Bach

This piece is played here by Geoff Olson, organist of St. Paul's United Church of Christ in St. Paul, MN. It is played on the Hauptwerk virtual model of a 2005 Cembalo Mietke harpsichord. The Hauptwerk system is integrated into a 30-rank Wicks/Hunt pipe organ. To listen my organ videos, go to / geoffolson1039​​ .
Hope you enjoy this piece and thanks for listening.

If memory serves, that’s the underlying melody for Bach’s version of Ave Maria, which I have solo’ d on. Nicely done, Geoff

[@GeoffOlson1039]

Yes. The Ave Maria uses the Prelude in C arpeggiated chords and adds a melody. Glad you enjoyed the video.
