- Virtuoso, inventive and moving, but also capricious to the point of recklessness. This is how you could describe this Toccata in D minor for harpsichord, performed here by Siebe Henstra for All of Bach. Although no autograph has survived, the work must have been composed shortly after Bach’s return from a journey to Lübeck. He had heard the famous Buxtehude playing there and was so impressed that he stayed longer than the couple of weeks’ leave his employer had given him. So on his return at the beginning of 1706, he got a severe reprimand from the church council in Arnstadt.
When listening to this harpsichord toccata, however, one thing is crystal clear. These reprimands certainly did nothing to diminish Bach’s tendency to seek out the limits of his musical possibilities and those of his audiences. On the contrary, he gives free rein to his inspiration for over twelve minutes. An increasingly adventurous prelude gives rise to two ingenious fugues, which he interrupts with a languorous adagio.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on 19th May 2015 at Felix Meritis, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

Cómo toda la obra de BACH, esto es maravilloso
The towering genius apparent in this relatively short piece is breathtaking.
Yes, yes! I hope this is indication that more recordings of the keyboard toccatas are being released! Thank you.
Patiently waiting for BWV 911.
That’s the most beautiful harpsichord I’ve ever seen. I love the grey!!
I also love when I hear Leonhardt playing through Henstra. Brilliant.
Bravo. That was great.
Almost 250 years after the trip to Lübeck, at the very first International Bach Competition in Leipzig in 1950, Shostakovich (as member of the jury) was inspired by Tatyana Nikolayeva's interpretation of _das wohltemperierte Klavier_ - which gave way to an intimate friendship and 24 preludes and fugues, op.87, premiered by Nikolayeva in 1952. From Buxtehude to Tatyana Petrovna. Just saying.
Smiling and waving from Istanbul.
I knew it was reminiscent of Buxtehude within the first minute, but not how directly so. Leave it to Bach to seamlessly adopt a great master's style while also making it a tour de force of his supreme gifting. SDG, bravo NBS.
Magnifique dextérité ,j'adore depuis Bach que ce soit à l'orgue,Toccata,Passacaille, tout, absolument tout de cette musique qui me semble à la fois mathématiques et comme une envolée d'oiseaux.... Mais quel belle œuvre et quelle belle interprétation
What an absolutely fabulous harpsichord! So sonorous. That or the sound engineer is an archangel! Oh and the harpsichordist is excellent too!
Titus Crijnen is known for making beautiful harpsichords
Amazing, Focus, concentration, I haver no gifts like this, feel the music without hear It....from Brazil Santa Catarina. Congrats
Bach's mind circuits trascended the complexity of any modern computer.
its not about mind
its bach's spiritual capacity
@@wanderingpalace I would say it's both. Johann Sebastian had a gifted mind and also a gifted emotional intelligence
To be sure!
The sound of heaven itself! I really like Hapsichord!
A wonderful and very touching rendition. Thanks.
Un tocco delicatissimo, intenso e appassionato. Grazie Maestro!
En una etapa de mi vida en la que me detengo en los pequeños detalles de las cosas , me doy el tiempo para escuchar estas musicas es un privilegio para mi poder disfrutar de la música de Bach muy agradablemente.
Баха понимают все! Детям в классе ставлю, все слушают!
Bach é essencial para uma vida saudável! ❤️😍
Wonderful performance. I love seeing that beautiful harpsichord. I have always loved the sound of the harpsichord which seems to have an electric sound.
Bravo, Maestro! That was a really commanding performance of a really exciting work - an interpretation to learn from as well as to enjoy. (I've been playing that piece for nearly sixty years, as a mere amateur, but found I was being shown ways to bring out more depth of meaning within the first few bars.) Thank you - as always!
Bravo! Bravissimo! Another great performance by Siebe Henstra.
Absolutely wonderfully played🍃
Absolutely wonderful performance
Even though there is a lot of musician worldwide who plays music But ....rarely you find someone who plays music like they are breathing it and living it .
Enjoyed Mr.henstra unique preformance and the way he played it was smooth yet deep with powerful imapct .
Thank you 🌸🌸🌸
Шикарно!
Beautiful... I imagine that J. S. Bach probably played this music as Mr. Henstra does. How lucky Dutch people are, being able to go to Mr. Henstra's concerts easily^^!
Geweldig. Je zou toch wensen dat er meer bewaard was gebleven van de jonge Bach.
An audience (without masks), those were the days, sigh
Yes - wouldn’t it be nice to go back?
Hope people will take clean air seriously so we can be rid of this plague and not have to be so reliant on masks anymore!
stupenda esecuzione bravissimo complimenti
Fascinant et merveilleux!
Very Good!
A completely handsome performance.
There is a really fun trombone quartet arrangement of the Allegro section of this piece I played at Brevard Music Center this year.I love fugues!
The Allegro ia so powerfull. So eternal. So angelical. Really i m in heavens listening a music made for God.
Werkelijk prachtig gespeeld!!
Beginning of the piece reminds me of the pedal solo at the start of BWV 549
Stupendo...
I love It!

The Presto is quite similar to Vivaldi's fugue in D minor
I have played some times for me alone
COOL
This harpsichorda has a Regal/Nasard stop or don't, I almost thought it when I heard?
You from Bach Society should try use a German harpsichord with a Regal/Nasard stop, because the sound is brilliant and full, very acute, I lile it, as you can see when you listen the CDs from Geneviève Solly for Graupner: album II has several uses of Nasard/Regal stop.
Where is the Organ?
Is Toccata in D minor?
@Netherlands Bach Society . Could you please give credits to the cameramen and video editors who work on those videos? it would be fair to them.
