This is one of Bach's greatest organ fugues, and it's a shame that the Toccata is so often played by itself, without the fugue. I marvel at the way Bach fused the two subjects into one gigantic double fugue.
I concur with you in that the fugue is magnificent, but I am absolutely not astonished that the toccata is often played alone, because it is an absolute marvel, the end of which leaves you speechless.🙂
I FIND THE FUGUE MORE SATISFY
ING TO PLAY.
@@martinmoxham6042 Haha!! I cannot speak to that, being no organist myself. Good luck, anyway.
I think so the same, it is like endless climbing to the heavens.
I had the good fortune to be in the Thomaskirche and listen to Bach’s works while knowing he is also listening since he was buried right there at the altar
Technisch brilliant, perfect orchestriert! Bach‘s soul was present
Professor Böhme IS Fred Astaire.
Remarkable playing.
And the audience,many with heads bowed in Reverence is deeply moving.
In a world of challenges and difficulties Bach is a profound gift to the soul.
Thank you. That was a magnificent performance. In the church that still holds the spirit of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Why would Bach's spirit be trapped in a church? The body, maybe, but surely not the spirit. BTW, it has not been confirmed that the remains buried in the Thomaskirche are actually Bach's.
@@herrickinman9303 If some says that someone's spirit is still in a place that doesn't mean that they are trapped there. It means that the remembrance of that person will always be a big part of it.
The perfection. The Bach's church, the Bach's music, the organ and the organist Boehme.
There is no doubt about Johann Sebastian Bach could be considerated himself such the fifth evangelist.
As an agnostic gnostic I have to say, "N+1st evangelist" :)
A few years ago my wife and I made the pilgrimage to Leipzig and St. Thomas Kirche. This organ, known as the Bach Organ, is installed on the side balcony of the nave. In the back of the church is a late 19th century romantic instrument of larger proportions. The original instrument is long gone and the Bach Organ is based on specifications found in a neighboring church's records. During the Soviet Union's occupation of East Germany a number of churches were razed. During the Nazi era the statue of Mendelssohn on the church grounds was destroyed because, well, Mendelssohn was a Jew who converted to Christianity. We also visited Mendelssohn's grave in Berlin.
I didn’t know Mendelssohn converted
@@anikomattison7568 For form's sake only.
The same kind of people who told the Germans that Nazis are good are now telling them that Russians are bad.
@@benjaminnetanyahu2940 Not true, Mendelssohn was a convinced Protestant who wrote more Church music than any other composer in the 19th Century. He never neglected his jewish roots though.
I ABDOLUTELY LOVE THIS ORGANIST PLAYING, THE ORGAN, AND THE ACOUSTICS. THAT´S ALL THERE IS--COMPLETE MUSIC FROM HEAVEN.
Music from heaven, exactly. Genau das hat Bach zu Lebzeiten auf Erden im Auftrage des lieben Gottes umgesetzt.
Truly Bach worked under God. That man must have a very high seat in Heaven: just fabulous as is Dr Bohme’s performance. The organ is fabulous too. I have a recording of Gillian Weir playing this on the same organ.
Absolutely amazing! This piece could not be played any better. Outstanding! 176 bpm
8:04 Fugue
Excelent performance., congratulations.
Glorious sounds inspired by God. Thanks Johann Sebastian Bach!
An amazing performance. Such a pleasure to listen/watch you play. This is without doubt a favourite piece of mine. J S Bach left us the most beautiful music. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent.
Bach at his best. Bravo for a wonderful performance. Thank you
Absolutely astonishing
An incredible and wonderful performer. Bach would be proud of him.
Thank you for your music J.S. Bach and Ullrich Böhme.
Ullrich Bohme is worthy of this music and this organ.
Ästhetisch u klanglich wundervolles Instrument u ein hervorragender Virtuose!
This is a stunning performance. So clear and crisp
How moving and wonderful
Bellissimo!
Thank you.
Unless you have a really high end audio system that can go down to 20Hz, go get yourself a set of TruthEar Zero:Red IEMs (In Ear Monitors: Best sound for not-a-lot of money), plug them into your PC or phone, and watch (listen to) this again!
Well played sir!
Fantastic! Danke!💗
hermoso sencillamente hermoso. thanks a lot.
Es esta obra en particular, unas de mis preferidas, que uno no puede creer que exista, sublime
wirklich wunderbar!!!! danke sehr"""" viele Grüsse aus dem Philippinen!!
Simply: Thanks!!!
First World Bach Fanboy Problem: the toccata's so good that I have to skip the fugue.
quite relatable :D
Magnifique
Tout droit jusqu’au ciel ! Et en dansant !
P.S I wonder if these were originally two seperate pieces? The Fugue seems very grave after the bravura Toccata. I don’t hear the Fugue played often here in the UK Cathedrals. They normally only play the Toccata.
They were written separately, I think there even is some doubt if these should even go together. To be fair though, most toccatas/preludes and fugues were written seperately (like BWV542, BWV564, BWV532)
It's very common for Bach's fugues to be very distinct from the former movement, too.
Take the E minor p&f from WTC I, for example.
This might be the most extreme example of the toccata (or prelude) being better than the fugue.

Why is the tuning high? Thought it would be lower than 440 if anything.
In the baroque period the common tuning was A=415hz, but it is known that organs were often tuned a half step UP, at A=466.8hz. A number of historic instruments have been returned to this historic pitch. The particular instrument in this video is modern and is able to transpose between 466.8hz and 415hz. 415 is used to accompany the Thomanerchor when they sing the works of Bach
Happy feet. Quite a feat!
Is this music tuned at 432 hz or 440 hz? which?
Yeah, God bless you all. HE so loved the world that HE gave His own son, so that whoever trusts in HIM will perish but have eternal life
Superjojo
Phaedra last scene with Perkins !
I like waffles. With butter. Butter flavored syrup. And black coffee.
Stunning performance! Bravo!! BWV 540 has always been one of my favourite Bach pieces, and your performance was superb. Slightly worried to see your pedal solos performed entirely with toe, and never heal - not that it spoilt the performance, but that style would have have gotten me into trouble with my teachers when I was learning to play the Organ! :-)
When did you have organ lessons?! You would get into trouble using heels in this piece with pretty much any organ teacher. Things have moved a long way!
@@ColinHarvey78 Evidently so! "Heels" were in all the time from Bach's lifetime till when I was taught pipe organ in the 1970s! Call that 300 years, give or take. So what's changed in the past 40-plus years?! Too many people playing home organs with those stubby half-pedals?! And if "Heels" are out of fashion, why do most of the organists I see still wear shoes WITH block heels?!!
eigentlich ist dieses Stück wirklich keine Etüde, Somit dürfte es durch aus um einiges langsamer sein
Von der Schwierigkeit ist es definitiv anspruchsvoller als viele anderen Orgelwerke und vergleichbar mit den beiden anderen hauptsächlich monothematischen Toccaten d-Moll (538) und C-Dur (564). Ich persönlich finde es etwas langsamer und gemütlicher gespielt auch schöner meistens, gerade bei so einer freundlichen Tonart wie F-Dur!
What happens to the tempo at the start of the fugue? I’m not sure I’m sold on the organ and playing tbh. Both sound too modern to me.
As I mentioned in an earlier post the Bach Organ specifications are based on records from other churches in the area from their organs of the period. It is an authentic representation of Baroque organs of Bach’s time at Leipzig. The day we visited St Thomas the organist, Prof Böhme was conducting a master class on that organ. It was magnificent.
BWV 538 + BWV 540 + BWV 565 = United 2026. Canada + USA + Mexico. Simple Maths from 🇲🇾.
Why tf is it fast
Puro esercizio tecnico.senza musica.
電子音で気持ち悪いです ごめんね 個人の感想です
なぜこの器官は電子的でしょうか？
Jesus. Way too fucking fast.
REGARDING THE MAATTER OF MENDELSOHN BEING A JEW ETC. I WONDER IF THE NAME JUDAS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE WORD JUDICOUS ? JUDAH,
Mendelssohn is of course responsible for rediscovering Bach around 1830 after the great composer had been all but forgotten. We have Felix Mendelssohn to thank for bringing Bach back to us in all his magnificence. Soli Deo Gloria!
G'day, ronwalker! The name Judas or Judah means "God be praised."
