    What a brain Bach must have had...imagine all those notes bouncing around in there! And, he produced so much of it! This was fun to listen to!

    Jonathan is famous for his brilliant transcriptions (and rightly so) but his playing of Bach’s works is absolutely masterly. I return to them over and over again. Bravo, Maestro!

    J. S. Bach in one of his many heights. Imbued by Heaven with an uncommon innate harmony, he's simply incomparable in the sheer depth of harmonization to be seen in his compositions. And here Mr. Scott does profound justice to this piece.

  • @jimhill4725
    @jimhill4725 2 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    Such ecstatic joy in this unparalleled "Great Fugue" = so aptly named to distinguish if apart from His "Little Fugue in G Minor" - and coincidentally also (in my opinion) to emphasize its pre-eminence among all other fugues as the greatest ever. It's no wonder that Sebastian fathered so many children in between bouts of creating such orgasmic music.

    What a great performance! I studied this piece and have an appreciation for how athletic it is but your playing was relaxed and spot-on throughout. Great articulation, love the all-toes pedaling. Really brought out all of the lines and voices beautifully.

  • @hopelessnerd6677
    @hopelessnerd6677 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    What an awesome performance. Just as people can't think about anything without turning the thoughts into words, I feel like great mathematicians think in numbers, and Bach thought in notes. I'm glad he wrote them down.

    This has to be my favourite organ work of all time, and the one I get the biggest 'kick' out of playing. I'm always fascinated how every organist has their own way of emphasising the first subject entries when they appear, and how the manuals are registered - all equally valid of course. Thanks for sharing this with us and thanks to Tom who, as always, made a brilliant recording.

    Блестяще! Слушаю с приогромнейшим удовольствием. искренне Благодарствую весь и всеми фибрами своей души Благодарю за Виртуозное исполнение.
    Для меня нет лучше композитора, чем Бах. Это настоящая мощь истинно человеческого искусства. Хочется не плакать, а рыдать.

    He composed this all these countless Melodie’s faster than we could write the notes. To say Bach was a genius is a massive understatement. He is in a league all of his own.

    Hi Jonathan, thanks for posting "'The Great" Fugue from BWV 542 again. It was a fantastic performance! As I posted over 12 months ago, for some reason, I keep going back to your full performance at St Mary's Cathedral, in Newcastle, UK in 2019 on the (late) Kenneth Tickell organ! For me , that was one of the very best performances that you (and others) have ever given of this piece on TH-cam! Best wishes to you both, as always.

    This is just to great! Those panning zooming in and out of the scene, reflects on how human worries grows dwindled upon Bach´s masterpieces. Yes indeed Jonathan crosses through the piece mastering all the instrument's resources and melodic hide bouts... but a noteworthy nodding must be glimpsed upon Tom's concerns of properly accompanying the whole spectacle; for the size of the instrument and the humongous building surrounding it, task becomes behemoth. Add Jonathan genius and then you have an instant difficult to package... but it is fair to say Tom, does it again!. Way to go!!!

    What scores do you use for these pieces that were originally written for organ? I would like to play this and a few other pieces from your channel, but your website only sells the transcriptions of orchestral pieces. I really like the layout of your arranged scores with all of the registration and details.
