It's because it's an awkward theme that gives it a powerful story. Think of how many movies are better when the hero starts out awkward and not able to do what they have to.
I noticed one thing. Bach ALWAYS modulates to Mediant Major and subdominant minor if he writes in minor key. (III, iv respectively) Example: Tonic g minor. Modulates to B flat major (III) and somewhere else, modulates to c minor (iv).
So daring to have a melodic tritone in the fugue subject. It's even more pronounced than the ascending tritone in the WTC. It really made me sit up and listen!
Uma execução primorosa dessa bela obra de Bach. O uso correto e criativo da registração, a execução magnífica, o respeito ao estilo, razem desse registro um primor. PARABÉNS
From 1'33" I feel for the genius who had to write out the entire sequence of a multitude of bars whereas today's composers have shortcuts for such a thing as descending semitone modulation! Such an awesome sequence with its diminished 7th resolving to a dominat 7th harmony in each bar. But where it lands back at the tonic minor it is perfectly placed in the structure.
God, the picardy third in this one, especially... it's like the first time the B natural comes in, 'eh, might be a happy ending, but that E-flat is REFUSING to budge' and the the E F# G at the end is like 'gtfo E-flat'
@@kelvinchan2286 Rubato was non-existent during the baroque period yes, but phrasing and agogic accents are still important when playing baroque which this recording lacks.
Je comprend mieux pourquoi l' interprète n'est pas nommé : ce morceau est visiblement trafiqué au sampler pour accélérer artificiellement la vitesse de jeu . Mis à part le divertissant bricolage , ce n'est pas honnête de cacher ces donnés là !
Ouch! I've listened to the Siloti transcription many times and the version I passionately love is the one played by Nelson Freire. When I heard this my ears went into a paroxysm of pain. This performance is not for me. Look them up, Nelson Freire/ Siloti.
0:55 Fugue first motive foreshadowing in the bass
Omg
InstaBlaster...
Now this is something i didn't notice and can't find in any other composer , pure brilliance
holy sh*t I've never noticed that, how cool...
The endings of both the Prelude and the Fugue have got to be some of the best endings Bach ever wrote! Fantastic!!
I also really like the end of the toccata in bwv 538
very good
I thought I was the only one who lived for a good Bach ending! 😊❤️
@@carryfreak5059 To quote a college friend of mine, "after all these years, I'm still a sucker for a Picardy third!"
So beautiful. He was such a great organist.
Possibly the greatest of his time, with Handel a close second.
Great Organist, Phenomenal Composer
One of the most well crafted fugues he ever wrote, nothing really compares. So much emotion, so much heart, and just so so clever.
Such an awkward fugue theme, and Bach turns it into musical gold.

@@somethingtojenga Nice point. Or counterpoint.
What's wrong with the fugue theme?
@@thechaseisbetterthanthecat68 it sounds awkward imo. There are many themes that bach could've come up with, yet he settled with this odd one
@@CougheePls I wouldn't call it awkward it's just more basic than what he usually writes
What is more amazing is that Bach probably wrote this entire piece in like two days. He could write amazing fugues like water from a tap.
This Coda is the best that i has ever listen! Wonderful
2:37 very good
Incredibly beautiful fugue!
Just like heaven...
One of the best and most creative organ works by Bach in my opinion. The fugue is really brilliant
I've never heard this one before. Very nice!
Perhaps there not many organists up to learning and recording this masterpiece?
@@777rogerfthe organ repertoire is hugely underrated

(III, iv respectively)
Example: Tonic g minor.
Modulates to B flat major (III) and somewhere else, modulates to c minor (iv).
Lmfaoooo that is fucking obvious, where else could he modulate?
This is really the finest scrolling animation.

gerubach спасибо тебе. Это одна из моих любимых произведений И.С.Баха .
what a beautiful video thanks for the uploading and the magic moment thanks!
What an amazing piece of music...

No conocía este grandioso trabajo del inmortal Johann Sebastian Bach.
Happy new year!
Nice birthday present from Gerubach!
Best of pieces
WTF the final cadense of the fuga D:! XD
The 32nds of the 2nd measure from the end made me laugh really hard.
amazing
Bravo bravo bravo
Wow, I've never heard this before! What an extraordinary piece. But isn't BWV 535 one of the "Little Preludes & Fugues"?
bauerwilhelm No, "Little preludes and fugues" are BWV's "553-561"
That V7 3rd Inv. chord preceding the final cadence is omnipotent!
So, basically the V2.
Best

Playing Chopin yes but this fast parts are incredible difficult
Who's the Organist??
Michel Chapuis

Make one of BWV 541
Check out Andre Isoir's 541 = best

Is dit een vroeg orgelwerk van Bach ?
not bad for a robot..
What do you mean ?
@@kal_bewe1837 He is expecting rubato in baroque period.

soy yo el único que no escucha el pedal? en el preludio el bajo es inaudible. una lástima :/ 🙁
Aumente o volume, ou use um fone de ouvido.
Yes I agree that the registration in general is not good and particularly for the pedal as it is very difficult to hear it
Where is the base? The pedal line is played in alto!!!
The pedal line lacks clarity.
