Ses premières œuvres - jusqu'aux premières cantates (Mühlausen 1707) - étaient exclusivement destinées au clavier et à l'orgue. Son frère Johann Christoph Bach lui enseigna l'art de Johann Pachelbel à Ohrdruf ; il se familiarisa bientôt avec la tradition de l'orgue nord-allemande à Lunebourg et Hambourg ; d'Arnstadt, où Bach reçut sa première nomination comme organiste, il fit un long voyage à Lübeck pour écouter Dietrich Buxtehude. À Weimar, Bach s'est intéressé à l'italien, ce que démontrent des pièces telles que les deux Fugues BWV 574 et 579 sur des thèmes de Giovanni Legrenzi et d'Arcangelo Corelli, et la Canzona BWV 588, dans laquelle le thème - probablement dérivé de Frescobaldi - est traité de façon fuguée, à l'ancienne, d'abord en double puis en triple temps. Egalement écrit à Weimar - pour ne citer que quelques pièces - où l'Orgel-Büchlein et la Passacaille en do mineur BWV 582, œuvres dans lesquelles le style d'orgue spécifique de Bach s'est d'abord vraiment imposé. Pendant sa période à Cöthen, il a surtout produit de la musique pour clavier (la Fantaisie Chromatique et Fugue, les Suites, le Clavier bien tempéré, 1ère partie) ; enfin à Leipzig, il a écrit de nombreux Préludes et Fugues et des arrangements de Chorale, le Clavier bien tempéré, 2ème partie, les quatre Clavier-Übungen, et enfin l'Art de la Fugue, une œuvre qui, comme on ne l'a reconnu qu'à notre époque, remonte dans sa méthode de notation aux anciennes traditions de la musique d'orgue. Vers la fin du XVIIe siècle, la musique pour clavier indépendante des chorals a pris plusieurs formes en dehors de celles de la suite et de la sonate : la fantasia, la ricercare canzona, la toccata, etc. La plupart d'entre elles comportent plusieurs sections, dont certaines sont fuguées, en alternance avec d'autres de style libre. Les premières œuvres de Bach s'éloignent progressivement de ces modèles ; ce développement se cristallise dans la double forme de prélude et de fugue. Par exemple, la pièce en la mineur BWV 551, décrite dans les éditions publiées comme ''Prélude et fugue'', est en fait une séquence de cinq sections vaguement reliées entre elles : Prélude - Fugato - quasi Adagio a deux sections Fugue - toccata comme la section finale. Le Prélude et Fugue BWV 532 est également composé de plusieurs sections contrastées : Toccata - section fuguée alla-breve - Adagio - grande Fugue finale (avec une partie de pédale virtuose). Des préludes dans plusieurs sections ont également été réalisés au début de la période de Weimar, tout comme la pratique de faire de la Fugue une section de type toccata, correspondant souvent au début de la pièce. Le plaisir de la virtuosité est particulièrement caractéristique des pièces expressément décrites comme des Toccates, comme l'œuvre précoce en ré mineur ; BWV 565 doit-elle son immense et inégalable popularité uniquement au puissant motif d'ouverture, avec ses pauses ? - ainsi qu'à la Toccata " dorienne " BWV 538 et à la Toccata en fa BWV 540. Toutes deux, marquées par une unité du matériau musical beaucoup plus prononcée que dans les œuvres précédentes, sont construites sur le modèle du concerto grosso italien. Parmi les Fantaisies, la première en sol BWV 572 est remarquable, surtout en raison de sa section centrale substantielle - écrite pour cinq voix étroitement imbriquées, et avec des modulations très étendues pour lesquelles il a été difficile de découvrir des modèles probables. La Fantaisie en sol mineur BWV 542, une Toccata étendue contenant deux sections fuguées, est une pièce dont l'abondance d'innovations harmoniques audacieuses ... Les six Sonates en trio BWV 525-530 (''Sonate à 2 Clav. e Pedal'' comme l'autographe est intitulé) doivent être considérées comme de la musique d'orgue. Si leur caractère remarquable de musique de chambre suggère plutôt l'utilisation d'un clavecin à pédale, il est un fait que la Nécrologie déjà mentionnée fait référence à ''Six Trios pour orgue à pédale obligée'' (miss BWV 530). Selon Johann Nikolaus Forkel, le premier biographe du compositeur, Bach " les a écrits pour son fils aîné Wilhelm Friedemann, qui s'est ainsi préparé à devenir le grand organiste qu'il a été dans les années suivantes ". En trois mouvements comme le Concerto italien, la quatrième sonate comporte une introduction adagio au premier mouvement - ces Sonates avec leur stricte notation en trio (main droite - main gauche - pédale), prennent leur place parmi les œuvres de chambre de la période de Cöthen de Bach.

The older I grow the more I appreciate the wonders of Bach's music. It's so much better than anything else. There are many great musicians, but nothing close to Bach.
@@JCMoore-sv8cf You can't spiritually grow until you've trusted Christ as your Savior. Until then, you're dead in trespasses and sins, and headed for an eternity in the lake of fire. Bach knew this full well. He quotes in Cantata BWV 5: "chaotic sin hath me not merely stained, It hath, much worse, my soul completely veiled. God surely would have banished me as sullied; But since a drop of holy blood Such mighty wonders doth, I can still unrejected bide here." In other words, until the blood of Jesus Christ is applied to your sins through faith in the gospel, you're a sin-filled,wretched mess, and you have no life in you at all. You're spiritually dead. You need to trust the gospel of Jesus Christ and be born again. John 1:12 KJV "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"
@@luisb3426 Quite the contrary, one can grow spiritually without Christ. In fact, that growth might be defined as progressive, whereas entrusting yourself to God and religion is rather regressive. Our savior is not Christ, it is ourselves, so please, if you are going to comment nonsense, such as the above, then please go to a monastery and relieve us of your backwards-thinking bullshit.
@@luisb3426 There is nothing better in this world than studying the bible while listening to the authorized soundtrack to the word of God, written by Bach. He really was the 5th evangelist and each cantata is a 100% biblically sound sermon. Once I came to Christ, a whole new world opened up to me. Thank God for Bach!
I am sorry to deny this, but leader of the music in heaven is God himself, creating the "divine music" by the harmonical interplay of the seven divine spirits. The musical leader of all creatures is (former king) David, author of the psaltery (according to Jakob Lorber), J.S.Bach and other blessed musicians take part in the celestial music. "Who wants to be the first among you, should be the servant of all others!" (Jesus Christ said this).
It has been said that the organ is the most versatile instrument ever devised by man, and this recording proves it. Bach's music, particularly his fugal sections, are wonders to behold. If an organist can execute the work correctly (in particular, the pedal board), then you are witnessing something ethereal, even semi-divine. His work will NEVER be paralleled. Having worked with some incredible organists over my life as a former singer, I can tell you that there is nothing in this world so uplifting as Bach's organ works. They are truly glorious, so full of energy and drive. Well done, and thanks for posting this.

It calms me down, brings me peace, connects me with the best of myself.
Every time I hear one of these works that I haven’t heard before, it becomes my own personal World Premiere. I discover once again what countless millions have learned over the has few hundred years: Bach is one of the true Eternal Geniuses that Humankind has produced. Thank God for Bach.
@@yourib5152 wie kann man so etwas schreiben, wenn man diese Musik hört; Bach ist der Beweis, dass Gott nicht nur lebt, sondern die pure und wahre Liebe ist; alles, was Bach zu kreieren fähig war, hat er Gott gewidmet.
Was just thinking this today as I listened to his keyboard concertos - what a divine gift from heaven, truly truly truly from God. th-cam.com/video/VhWyP0YNwGU/w-d-xo.html
Bachs Orgelmusik erzieht unser Herz mutig zu sein. Das fühlt beständig und besonders bei der Ausführung von Michel Chapuis und Wolfgang Stockmeier !!! Tepper Michael.
Seven hours listening to the complete known organ works of J S Bach. Lockdown makes this a possibility. How could one man with 18 children compose so much incredible music. Its beyond human comprehension.
@@ianclarke1852 Bach's work in terms of quality and output is incomprehensible, a miracle. He claimed music came from God. I'm not going to argue with him.
@Zeug Dings ah, very very much! I Think that Stockmeier is a great musician with a good sensibility for Bach's works. It's clear with good phrasing and use of the organ. (Sorry for my English😅)
@@robertomucciorganista As an English speaker, I would like to complement you on your English. It seems excellent to me! Also, couldn't agree more with the sentiments that you expressed!
I am extremely grateful to God for being able to listen to the magnificent Bach. God bless the people on this channel, from the country side from Brazil......
Bach went to Heaven every night at sleep and listen music, and when wake up start to reproduce like in the dream, i think he still missed some notes but, what a in front gift he gave Us, Thank you for born and to his Mother for rise him.
I can listen to this as I die..musical architecture and spiritual ethereality …Thank You Johann Sebastian for enriching my life since a child and THANK YOU Organist for your devotion ,intellect and drive to play and record this truly marvellous archive of musical interpretation. Thanks also to ALL those unseen team members who put all this together …incalculable joy for humanity …
Je vous remercie pour cette magnifique présentation. Je fais partie de ceux qui avaient auparavant considéré Walcha comme une "référence" ; Stockmeier fait preuve ici d'une égale grandeur. Greetings from USA; hoping my French OK - & all in good health in Paris.
Next Sunday in buenos Aires is the fourth concert in a cycle that aims to perform the complete works by Bach, a delightful experience, completely free, I feel so lucky
TH-cam is not only the best online university during lockdown but also the best Music Hall in the world now. Can you imagine a place playing hours and hours of Bach? Here is the best place.
Thank you so much. As a child I used to listen to my father playing the organ at our local church, especially to his improvisations when the service was over. I can only regret not asking him to teach me at the time, for, alas,he is gone now
On this Sunday morning I am aghast and in total wonderment. I who thought I knew so much of the world of 'classical music' am discovering most of seven hours of organ composition with which I am unfamiliar. I think I am going to have to listen again and again, and then again and again. Hello to God. Maybe this is a slight introduction to Heaven....a place of total beauty and total purity, a place where there is never a moment of boredom, something new and grand every minute, a realm of enchantment! I was once told that it should take a lifetime and a half to learn all of Bach's music ( I now realize I have no chance of ever mastering the incredible Goldberg Variations) and yet JS Bach composed every bit of it in his lifetime! Do you think he might have enjoyed the assistance of One even more skilled than he in creating masterwork after masterwork??
How did his audiences appreciate these with only one hearing? I need to play this video many times till I have learnt the pieces I don’t know. Then I will play them some more because they are wonderful to listen too. I never tire of Bach.
My God how moving! Symatics for the soul, truly a masterpiece survival from the Old World. I can only imagine how much more powerful such an experience would be hearing this played live in a cathedral where the sound actually resonates thru you. Logos eternal.
These peices have fascinated and comforted me in my youth, and when I revisit them now and then, it is like reuniting with my truest and dearest friend and care giver, my beloved grandmother Siti Marie. Time flows on at the rythm of Bach's fugues.
as a non-organist (centuries ago, I played 13 instruments, mainly viola and bassoon), I am always amazed by what the organ can accomplish, especially when written by a supreme master like Bach and played well. I am, in particular, enthralled by the pedals and what they can accomplish.
I played keyboard and viola (eat your hearts out mono- and di-cleffers!😂😂😂), as well as singing tenor. I attempted the organ when I was in college back in the stone age. While I could handle the manual counterpoint well enough with enough practice, putting it all together with the pedals baffled me to no end, and I've come to admire anyone who can play the full organ well as a result. Probably the most difficult instrument to learn in terms of multitasking and coordination.😊
"(...)the prince of Clavier and Organ players(...)" I am reading Forkel's old book, the chapter "Bach the organist". Then I feel like listening to what I'm reading about, I find this, and tears come out and flow from my eyes like an endless river. I don't understand much of what Forkel wrote, because I'm not a musician. But I know in my heart why the memory of this man is immortal.Thanks a lot for sharing.
What a blessing!!!! The guy has provided us with hours of fantastic organ music!!Thanks Wolfgang and team.All praise to God,the musician and the composer!!
You give Internet a good name with this wonderful channel of yours. It is absolute top quality featuring the best we can find in MUSIC. Thank you very much.
Many thanks for Bach's wonderful music and also for the notes. And as always with your channel a very good sound quality. Your channel has become an important part of my life.
Gracias por compartir ta grandes obras, la música de los grandes maestros reflejan, no solo su capacidad intelectual, toda una disciplina y orden de vida que permitieron generar obras tan perfectas en su estructura y armonía, haciendo de ellas un elemento de placer para el oido aún cuando no se tenga formación musical.
This is by far my favorite channel on TH-cam, and I'm very picky of who I subscribe to. You guys may be small now, but the amount of content that is posted and as well as the quality of this channel's work, won't be late until you guys skyrocket! Keep going, and keep posting amazing peices of history! May God bless you guys with wisdom in JESUS NAME!
Thank you SO MUCH for this recording! I've been looking for the interpretation like this (of such level) for many years and couldn't find. It's just like Bach should be played in my perception. Grandiose!
It's filled with Bach's works and his great performer's performance everywhere of the classical music area of「You Tube 」 The humanity would be very lonely without Bach's music and his great performers I'm just intoxicated with this fabulous performance in Japan's summer My heart is filled with the splendor of Bach's music From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵
This music guided me through a voluntary visit to hell in my soul during a trip. Such a generous upload...im so ever grateful for such an upload with no ads!!
On se rend compte à quel point le style fantastique était présent chez Bach. L'orgue baroque s'y prête magnifiquement sans trop surcharger contrairement à certaines époques postérieures.
Thanks for sharing this. Bach humbles me over and over and over again. I am today particularly taken by that awkwardly beautiful chord progression at the end of the Adagio (BWV564) starting at 4:36:00.
Si ! un vero ‘RUSCELLO’ 🌊 di note 🎶🎵🎶... un intenso scroscio di zampillante melodia, armonia, come rigogliose... fresche... limpide e ristoratrici acque !
60 years ago I was mainly a jazz fan . Many jazzmen said their favorite composer was Bach & I asked a friend to recommend some records. He said go to the NY Public Library & take out the organ works by Helmut Walcha. No disrespect to Alain, Biggs, Chapuis, Hurford, Richter, Lionel Rogg & many other great organists but Walcha set a very high standard. Not flashy, maybe sometimes stodgy, but still very listenable after all these years.
Wunderschöne Interpretation dieser fein oder perfekt komponierten Meisterwerke im präzisen doch lebhaften Tempo mit durchsichtigen und gut artikulieren Tönen der ausgezeichneten Orgel sowie mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich genialer Organist!
Johann Sébastien. BACH t tes œuvres sont empreintes d.une t'elle légèreté qu 'eeles apportent une joie immense et surtout une grande sérénité.la musique est universelle et ne fait pas de différence👍🌃
Man, you put someone who can play the organ like the second coming of Jesus and ask him to play Bach, that would be an amazing experience. And live, in front of a giant cathedral organ? An out of body experience that must be! I remember when I was visiting the Cathedral of Blois, in France. First time there, I just wanted to go out of curiosity for religion. Once we entered past the heavy door, there in the middle stood the organ, and a woman was playing something. At first it just ambianced the whole building, so I just looked around while she was finishing her song, without really paying much attention to it. Then it was over, and the silence let itself known for a bit. And then, a few seconds later, the heavy organ played again, taking everyone present at that moment with it in its incredible sound. And when you have someone who plays something religious in such a way that you feel like the player isn't just mechanical, that's... That's something else. Add to that the fact that I was making my way entranced by thoughts of forgiveness and wonder towards the back of the cathedral. There was a big statue of Marie and Jesus, in a rare metal, although I do not remember which it was. Maybe it wasn't even metal and was just painted, but it did look like it was sculpted in metal. Either way, the sound of the beautiful piece being played started engulfing my senses and I couldn't help but for the first time feel like I was experiencing something holy. So, even if I didn't consider myself a Christian, I knelt down before the statue and stayed there for a bit, unable to do much but think with the music being played. The funny thing is typing this while hearing what you uploaded here reminds me of a fraction of this experience. What an amazing feeling, only possible when Humanity puts its heart and soul in so many things, with the desire and hope that others will appreciate their work in their entirety, in their truth. One of the best experiences of my life, and yet I don't remember it that often. But that's how the organ became my favorite instrument. Sorry, I should say something to you! Thanks a lot for the upload.
Come x Mozart in J.S.B. la musica sgorga inesauribile x purissima Grazia divina raccolta e incanalata nelle canne dell'organo magistralmente accarezzate da Wolfgang Stockmeier. Giovanni Cherubino
I am looking for recordings of Bach's complete organ works. I think these recordings may be a good option. Thank you for uploading the high quality recordings.
Toccata and fugue in F major has been my favorite organ piece for many years now. The piece is very cathartic and helped me though a very difficult day today. Thank you for posting such a wonderful composition of one of my absolute favorite composers.
Even though Bach was prolific, that doesn't mean that every piece is diverse and unique from that which came before. But we also have to keep in mind that he had a lot of titles and callings: he was not only a court composer and keyboard virtuoso, but he was also kapellmeister (chapel master and orchestra conductor) to two north German courts in his early years. Unlike Beethoven, whose patrons afforded him the luxury of taking his time, Bach had to provide new music on a daily basis, thus some considerable repetition or lack of considerable variation in his writing. It's also interesting to note that much of Bach's compositions here are replete with regular continuance or lack of rests that is so familiar to us in today's music. Finally, Bach wasn't writing to make popular, memorable hits that you could hum like one may be able to do with today's pop hits. He was generally writing to fill a quota and for certain occasions, not for popularity and notoriety.
A totally amazing upload CF/RR...on numerous levels. What would the "old wig" think about being able to "push a few buttons" and then instantly hearing 7 hours and 45 minutes of his own organ compositions come emanating from this odd looking contraption? I hope he wouldn't instantly draw his sword...but that he would eventually sit back, in wonderment...then slowly, slyly smile. We that love the greatest composer of all time, thanketh thee, profusely.
From the little we can glean of Bach's character, I think it is justified to say that he took immense pride in his work and probably knew that it blew competition out of the water. I mean, Handel was an outstanding organist, one of the best in his day, and his works don't come to Bach's standard. I have often wondered of what Bach would think if he visited our modern era and saw how much people around the world revere his music.
Künstlerin-DAB1995 Handel was a genius of the first order and Bach exists in a place some way above that. You can only think that Bach would be genuinely moved by the esteem he is held in given that he wasnt altogether appreciated as a composer during his lifetime.
Künstlerin-DAB1995 If Bach was around today he might be perplexed by how some people with very little talent are hugely celebrated and how some people with huge ability are too easily overlooked.

Tout au long de sa vie, Bach s'est intéressé aux compositions pour instruments à clavier, longtemps connues sous le terme collectif de "clavier". Ses premières œuvres - jusqu'aux premières cantates (Mühlausen 1707) - étaient exclusivement destinées au clavier et à l'orgue. Son frère Johann Christoph Bach lui enseigna l'art de Johann Pachelbel à Ohrdruf ; il se familiarisa bientôt avec la tradition de l'orgue nord-allemande à Lunebourg et Hambourg ; d'Arnstadt, où Bach reçut sa première nomination comme organiste, il fit un long voyage à Lübeck pour écouter Dietrich Buxtehude.
À Weimar, Bach s'est intéressé à l'italien, ce que démontrent des pièces telles que les deux Fugues BWV 574 et 579 sur des thèmes de Giovanni Legrenzi et d'Arcangelo Corelli, et la Canzona BWV 588, dans laquelle le thème - probablement dérivé de Frescobaldi - est traité de façon fuguée, à l'ancienne, d'abord en double puis en triple temps. Egalement écrit à Weimar - pour ne citer que quelques pièces - où l'Orgel-Büchlein et la Passacaille en do mineur BWV 582, œuvres dans lesquelles le style d'orgue spécifique de Bach s'est d'abord vraiment imposé.
Pendant sa période à Cöthen, il a surtout produit de la musique pour clavier (la Fantaisie Chromatique et Fugue, les Suites, le Clavier bien tempéré, 1ère partie) ; enfin à Leipzig, il a écrit de nombreux Préludes et Fugues et des arrangements de Chorale, le Clavier bien tempéré, 2ème partie, les quatre Clavier-Übungen, et enfin l'Art de la Fugue, une œuvre qui, comme on ne l'a reconnu qu'à notre époque, remonte dans sa méthode de notation aux anciennes traditions de la musique d'orgue.
Vers la fin du XVIIe siècle, la musique pour clavier indépendante des chorals a pris plusieurs formes en dehors de celles de la suite et de la sonate : la fantasia, la ricercare canzona, la toccata, etc. La plupart d'entre elles comportent plusieurs sections, dont certaines sont fuguées, en alternance avec d'autres de style libre. Les premières œuvres de Bach s'éloignent progressivement de ces modèles ; ce développement se cristallise dans la double forme de prélude et de fugue. Par exemple, la pièce en la mineur BWV 551, décrite dans les éditions publiées comme ''Prélude et fugue'', est en fait une séquence de cinq sections vaguement reliées entre elles : Prélude - Fugato - quasi Adagio a deux sections Fugue - toccata comme la section finale.
Le Prélude et Fugue BWV 532 est également composé de plusieurs sections contrastées : Toccata - section fuguée alla-breve - Adagio - grande Fugue finale (avec une partie de pédale virtuose). Des préludes dans plusieurs sections ont également été réalisés au début de la période de Weimar, tout comme la pratique de faire de la Fugue une section de type toccata, correspondant souvent au début de la pièce.
Le plaisir de la virtuosité est particulièrement caractéristique des pièces expressément décrites comme des Toccates, comme l'œuvre précoce en ré mineur ; BWV 565 doit-elle son immense et inégalable popularité uniquement au puissant motif d'ouverture, avec ses pauses ? - ainsi qu'à la Toccata " dorienne " BWV 538 et à la Toccata en fa BWV 540. Toutes deux, marquées par une unité du matériau musical beaucoup plus prononcée que dans les œuvres précédentes, sont construites sur le modèle du concerto grosso italien.
Parmi les Fantaisies, la première en sol BWV 572 est remarquable, surtout en raison de sa section centrale substantielle - écrite pour cinq voix étroitement imbriquées, et avec des modulations très étendues pour lesquelles il a été difficile de découvrir des modèles probables. La Fantaisie en sol mineur BWV 542, une Toccata étendue contenant deux sections fuguées, est une pièce dont l'abondance d'innovations harmoniques audacieuses ...
Les six Sonates en trio BWV 525-530 (''Sonate à 2 Clav. e Pedal'' comme l'autographe est intitulé) doivent être considérées comme de la musique d'orgue. Si leur caractère remarquable de musique de chambre suggère plutôt l'utilisation d'un clavecin à pédale, il est un fait que la Nécrologie déjà mentionnée fait référence à ''Six Trios pour orgue à pédale obligée'' (miss BWV 530). Selon Johann Nikolaus Forkel, le premier biographe du compositeur, Bach " les a écrits pour son fils aîné Wilhelm Friedemann, qui s'est ainsi préparé à devenir le grand organiste qu'il a été dans les années suivantes ". En trois mouvements comme le Concerto italien, la quatrième sonate comporte une introduction adagio au premier mouvement - ces Sonates avec leur stricte notation en trio (main droite - main gauche - pédale), prennent leur place parmi les œuvres de chambre de la période de Cöthen de Bach.

The older I grow the more I appreciate the wonders of Bach's music. It's so much better than anything else. There are many great musicians, but nothing close to Bach.
ALM, you are spiritually growing. That's a great gift for humans to acquire as we mature. Thanks for sharing your insightful experience of Bach.
@@JCMoore-sv8cf You can't spiritually grow until you've trusted Christ as your Savior. Until then, you're dead in trespasses and sins, and headed for an eternity in the lake of fire. Bach knew this full well. He quotes in Cantata BWV 5:
"chaotic sin hath me not merely stained,
It hath, much worse, my soul completely veiled.
God surely would have banished me as sullied;
But since a drop of holy blood
Such mighty wonders doth,
I can still unrejected bide here."
In other words, until the blood of Jesus Christ is applied to your sins through faith in the gospel, you're a sin-filled,wretched mess, and you have no life in you at all. You're spiritually dead. You need to trust the gospel of Jesus Christ and be born again.
John 1:12 KJV
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"
@@luisb3426 Quite the contrary, one can grow spiritually without Christ. In fact, that growth might be defined as progressive, whereas entrusting yourself to God and religion is rather regressive. Our savior is not Christ, it is ourselves, so please, if you are going to comment nonsense, such as the above, then please go to a monastery and relieve us of your backwards-thinking bullshit.
I started with the Brandenburg Concerto 20 years ago. I realize that my whole life will not be enough to absorb the whole wonderful work of Bach.
@@luisb3426 There is nothing better in this world than studying the bible while listening to the authorized soundtrack to the word of God, written by Bach. He really was the 5th evangelist and each cantata is a 100% biblically sound sermon. Once I came to Christ, a whole new world opened up to me. Thank God for Bach!

J S Bach will forever remain the greatest composer for organ, an instrument of unparalleled beauty and harmonic richness.
Amen
"...An instrument of unparallede beauty and harrmonic richness." Perfect!!!!
Eu o amo , Bach, pelo incomparável presente que nos herdou _ sua obra!!! Torno_me um humano mais divino ao ouvi lo!!!
not just for organ. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Could have just ended at greatest composer.
Bach is definitely leading the music in heaven! Who else????
Herr Mozart?
I am sorry to deny this, but leader of the music in heaven is God himself, creating the "divine music" by the harmonical interplay of the seven divine spirits. The musical leader of all creatures is (former king) David, author of the psaltery (according to Jakob Lorber), J.S.Bach and other blessed musicians take part in the celestial music. "Who wants to be the first among you, should be the servant of all others!" (Jesus Christ said this).
Under each one of his Works he wrote " Soli Deo Gloria"
It seems that he recieved his harmonic ideas from heaven.

Diau soit loué.
You ARE in heaven!!!!😊
i am musician and i play since i have eigth years old i have now 50 and i love Bach one of the best is more near of God music from Universe
It has been said that the organ is the most versatile instrument ever devised by man, and this recording proves it. Bach's music, particularly his fugal sections, are wonders to behold. If an organist can execute the work correctly (in particular, the pedal board), then you are witnessing something ethereal, even semi-divine. His work will NEVER be paralleled. Having worked with some incredible organists over my life as a former singer, I can tell you that there is nothing in this world so uplifting as Bach's organ works. They are truly glorious, so full of energy and drive. Well done, and thanks for posting this.
It calms me down, brings me peace, connects me with the best of myself.
Every time I hear one of these works that I haven’t heard before, it becomes my own personal World Premiere. I discover once again what countless millions have learned over the has few hundred years: Bach is one of the true Eternal Geniuses that Humankind has produced.
Thank God for Bach.

@@yourib5152 wie kann man so etwas schreiben, wenn man diese Musik hört; Bach ist der Beweis, dass Gott nicht nur lebt, sondern die pure und wahre Liebe ist; alles, was Bach zu kreieren fähig war, hat er Gott gewidmet.

I love when something doesn't have ads.
Seven hours listening to the complete known organ works of J S Bach. Lockdown makes this a possibility. How could one man with 18 children compose so much incredible music. Its beyond human comprehension.
Nearly 10 more hours on part 2:

TH-cam is not only the best online university during lockdown but also the best Music Hall in the world now. Can you imagine a place playing hours and hours of Bach? Here is the best place.
Thank you so much. As a child I used to listen to my father playing the organ at our local church, especially to his improvisations when the service was over. I can only regret not asking him to teach me at the time, for, alas,he is gone now
Sometimes you have more joy when you cannot play the piece. And im talking from experience
@@bendoes1012 Thank you, I agree, you can focus on pure music. But still, it is a skill I would love to have.
This recording is a gift.
There is no doubt that it is incomparable!!!
On this Sunday morning I am aghast and in total wonderment. I who thought I knew so much of the world of 'classical music' am discovering most of seven hours of organ composition with which I am unfamiliar. I think I am going to have to listen again and again, and then again and again. Hello to God. Maybe this is a slight introduction to Heaven....a place of total beauty and total purity, a place where there is never a moment of boredom, something new and grand every minute, a realm of enchantment! I was once told that it should take a lifetime and a half to learn all of Bach's music ( I now realize I have no chance of ever mastering the incredible Goldberg Variations) and yet JS Bach composed every bit of it in his lifetime! Do you think he might have enjoyed the assistance of One even more skilled than he in creating masterwork after masterwork??
How did his audiences appreciate these with only one hearing? I need to play this video many times till I have learnt the pieces I don’t know. Then I will play them some more because they are wonderful to listen too. I never tire of Bach.
"Bring back Bach!"
🎻 "Classical music, like sonic paintings, unveils a sophisticated and stylish world where time seems to stand still." 🌌🎶
My God how moving! Symatics for the soul, truly a masterpiece survival from the Old World. I can only imagine how much more powerful such an experience would be hearing this played live in a cathedral where the sound actually resonates thru you. Logos eternal.
These peices have fascinated and comforted me in my youth, and when I revisit them now and then, it is like reuniting with my truest and dearest friend and care giver, my beloved grandmother Siti Marie. Time flows on at the rythm of Bach's fugues.
as a non-organist (centuries ago, I played 13 instruments, mainly viola and bassoon), I am always amazed by what the organ can accomplish, especially when written by a supreme master like Bach and played well. I am, in particular, enthralled by the pedals and what they can accomplish.
Je suis bien de cet avis...
I played keyboard and viola (eat your hearts out mono- and di-cleffers!😂😂😂), as well as singing tenor. I attempted the organ when I was in college back in the stone age. While I could handle the manual counterpoint well enough with enough practice, putting it all together with the pedals baffled me to no end, and I've come to admire anyone who can play the full organ well as a result. Probably the most difficult instrument to learn in terms of multitasking and coordination.😊
Hugely enjoying this mega Bach playlist. Even so often, I stop my work in delight as I notice some inventive theme. Excellent music!
Bach's music is a treasured gift to all of humanity.
"(...)the prince of Clavier and Organ players(...)" I am reading Forkel's old book, the chapter "Bach the organist". Then I feel like listening to what I'm reading about, I find this, and tears come out and flow from my eyes like an endless river. I don't understand much of what Forkel wrote, because I'm not a musician. But I know in my heart why the memory of this man is immortal.Thanks a lot for sharing.
C'est tellement bien exprimé que ça rend Bach meilleur. Jean-Louis Rosa

BWV 543 is the evolution of the universe. My favourite organ work of all time.
On se rend compte à quel point le style fantastique était présent chez Bach. L'orgue baroque s'y prête magnifiquement sans trop surcharger contrairement à certaines époques postérieures.
Thanks for sharing this. Bach humbles me over and over and over again. I am today particularly taken by that awkwardly beautiful chord progression at the end of the Adagio (BWV564) starting at 4:36:00.
Beautiful

Stockmeier's recordings are one of my favourite one. Maybe not better than Alain's recordings but nothing to envy
60 years ago I was mainly a jazz fan . Many jazzmen said their favorite composer was Bach & I asked a friend to recommend some records. He said go to the NY Public Library & take out the organ works by Helmut Walcha. No disrespect to Alain, Biggs, Chapuis, Hurford, Richter, Lionel Rogg & many other great organists but Walcha set a very high standard. Not flashy, maybe sometimes stodgy, but still very listenable after all these years.
Extremely well played. Thanks very much for your great effort as always.
:)
Wunderschöne Interpretation dieser fein oder perfekt komponierten Meisterwerke im präzisen doch lebhaften Tempo mit durchsichtigen und gut artikulieren Tönen der ausgezeichneten Orgel sowie mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich genialer Organist!

Just bravo, what can be better, with love from New Jersey, USA.
True, we definitely reached the top of the musical food chain here.
Man, you put someone who can play the organ like the second coming of Jesus and ask him to play Bach, that would be an amazing experience. And live, in front of a giant cathedral organ? An out of body experience that must be!
I remember when I was visiting the Cathedral of Blois, in France. First time there, I just wanted to go out of curiosity for religion. Once we entered past the heavy door, there in the middle stood the organ, and a woman was playing something. At first it just ambianced the whole building, so I just looked around while she was finishing her song, without really paying much attention to it. Then it was over, and the silence let itself known for a bit. And then, a few seconds later, the heavy organ played again, taking everyone present at that moment with it in its incredible sound. And when you have someone who plays something religious in such a way that you feel like the player isn't just mechanical, that's... That's something else. Add to that the fact that I was making my way entranced by thoughts of forgiveness and wonder towards the back of the cathedral. There was a big statue of Marie and Jesus, in a rare metal, although I do not remember which it was. Maybe it wasn't even metal and was just painted, but it did look like it was sculpted in metal.
Either way, the sound of the beautiful piece being played started engulfing my senses and I couldn't help but for the first time feel like I was experiencing something holy. So, even if I didn't consider myself a Christian, I knelt down before the statue and stayed there for a bit, unable to do much but think with the music being played.
The funny thing is typing this while hearing what you uploaded here reminds me of a fraction of this experience. What an amazing feeling, only possible when Humanity puts its heart and soul in so many things, with the desire and hope that others will appreciate their work in their entirety, in their truth.
One of the best experiences of my life, and yet I don't remember it that often. But that's how the organ became my favorite instrument.
Sorry, I should say something to you! Thanks a lot for the upload.

Bach.,es el padre mas importante de la musica clasica.gracias.
Toccata and fugue in F major has been my favorite organ piece for many years now. The piece is very cathartic and helped me though a very difficult day today.
Thank you for posting such a wonderful composition of one of my absolute favorite composers.
You're welcome
Even though Bach was prolific, that doesn't mean that every piece is diverse and unique from that which came before. But we also have to keep in mind that he had a lot of titles and callings: he was not only a court composer and keyboard virtuoso, but he was also kapellmeister (chapel master and orchestra conductor) to two north German courts in his early years. Unlike Beethoven, whose patrons afforded him the luxury of taking his time, Bach had to provide new music on a daily basis, thus some considerable repetition or lack of considerable variation in his writing. It's also interesting to note that much of Bach's compositions here are replete with regular continuance or lack of rests that is so familiar to us in today's music. Finally, Bach wasn't writing to make popular, memorable hits that you could hum like one may be able to do with today's pop hits. He was generally writing to fill a quota and for certain occasions, not for popularity and notoriety.
Very salient point.
@@jeffreypbrown4729 Point très sayant.
His VERY DIVERSE compositions say otherwise...
Bach’s music can be very diverse. Just look at the Goldberg variations, or the well tempered clavier
Bach, es una de las mas bellas casualidades de la vida.

This is wonderful. Thank you very much.
A totally amazing upload CF/RR...on numerous levels. What would the "old wig" think about being able to "push a few buttons" and then instantly hearing 7 hours and 45 minutes of his own organ compositions come emanating from this odd looking contraption? I hope he wouldn't instantly draw his sword...but that he would eventually sit back, in wonderment...then slowly, slyly smile. We that love the greatest composer of all time, thanketh thee, profusely.
From the little we can glean of Bach's character, I think it is justified to say that he took immense pride in his work and probably knew that it blew competition out of the water. I mean, Handel was an outstanding organist, one of the best in his day, and his works don't come to Bach's standard. I have often wondered of what Bach would think if he visited our modern era and saw how much people around the world revere his music.
Künstlerin-DAB1995 Handel was a genius of the first order and Bach exists in a place some way above that. You can only think that Bach would be genuinely moved by the esteem he is held in given that he wasnt altogether appreciated as a composer during his lifetime.
Künstlerin-DAB1995 If Bach was around today he might be perplexed by how some people with very little talent are hugely celebrated and how some people with huge ability are too easily overlooked.
