What a wonderful performance of this 'chorale partita' - you interpret, register and play this music with great sensitivity and authority, Sam: bravo! I'm sure you'll already know that Georg Böhm was one of the leading organists and organ composers in his part of Germany (Thuringia) during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, and he may have been an important influence on Bach. (Bach’s son, Carl Philipp Emanuel wrote that his father "loved and studied the works of the Lüneburg organist, Georg Böhm.") Böhm was part of a trend in the late part of the 17th century in which the church's organ chorale was developed into new forms. One of the primary ones being the 'chorale partita'' where the Italian partita, a variation form using a dance song as its basis, is fused with the Lutheran church chorale, where a chorale melody became the basis of a set of variations, creating the form called 'chorale partite.' Böhm was fond of the new form, and created several of them - including this "Ach wie nichtig, ach wie flüchtig" - most likely intended for home use on pedal clavier. Böhm's methods of deriving new melodic forms from the original chorale, and his way of unifying the larger chorale pieces, were take up by Bach in his compositions.
Ich selber würde zwar nicht so eine Wackelshow abziehen und mich stört das auch ästhetisch. Da es ja kein Einfluss darauf hat ob die Luftklappe bei der Orgel auf geht oder nicht, aber sehr gut gespielt trotzdem und nicht nur visuelle Effekthascherei.
Danke für den Kommentar (und bitte verzeiehen mein Deutsch!) Ja ich bin von der selber Meinung über die "Wackelshow" und das möchte ich ändern nächstes Mal. Ich höffe das du meinen Channel genießt :)
