- JS Bach's famous 'Gigue' Fugue in G BWV 577 played on the organ of Immanuelkerk in Ermelo, Netherlands.
I hope you enjoy this performance of this jolly piece, and that you can hear all the parts on this super organ which has been sampled for Hauptwerk by @PiotrGrabowski_Organs: piotrgrabowski.pl/ermelo
Thanks to cameralady extraordinaire, Caroline!

You simply can’t be in a bad mood after hearing this piece.
That is so true!
I know! It's one of those works that I listen to whenever I need to get cheered up.
I can. I’m in a bad mood, because Richard can play it and I cannot.
Just the right pace, joyful and spirited. What else could you want?
I love your tempo. Too many organists slop thru and a tempo that Bach would have hated. Well-done, Sir Richard!!
one of my favorites
Absolutely stunning and perfect in every way! Bravo
In 1980, we had a party at Uppsala Castle (Sweden). 150 people did a long dance to the Jig Fugue (Virgil Fox recording). Great fun!
Marvelous performance, and at a perfect tempo, too. So many organists tend to rush this. Good camera work by Caroline, too. Next you need to tie a GoPro on Nala and let her run through the pedals whilst you're playing, ;)
I agree, the tempo is good, let's think about mechanical organs of Bach period. I don't like so much the stops choice, mixtures and fagott 16' at the pedal.
That's what I call a perfect 3 minutes 20 seconds! Really cheered me up 😊
See that you learned to “Dance the Gig!” Way to go!
I was lucky to have heard Virgil Fox play this. He had people dancing in the aisles.......
Absolutely brilliant. Love the shirt. We heard Carlo Curley play this and thought we would never hear it any better. We just have ! Thankyou. (rip Carlo). Trevor and Jan. Canewdon Essex. Ps my first car was a Ford consul 375. 👏👏🐈🧦😊
Nice to hear you play and looking somewhat casual...
Our dishy Richard play on young man play on👏
While listening to this but not watching. I never would have guessed that it was from a virtual organ. Well done indeed.
Fabulous! What an effervescent performance. Lovely camera work as well. Truly wonderful. 😊
This is just smashing! Wonderful tempo with musicality and power!
Played at our wedding 16 years ago. Thank you.
SPLENDID Performance! THANK YOU for NOT eliding the eighth note upbeats as almost everyone does incorrectly. You have freed the music from the page and allowed it to dance!
MY STARS! You have gone and played my favorite musical work of all, and better than ANY other performance I have ever heard. That includes Mr. and Mrs. Durufle on the dual Mollers at the National Shrine at Washington DC. Their rendition was electrifying, and yours as well, at a somewhat higher voltage.
That camera work isn’t too bad. Well done Hugo!
:D And hasn't he grown tall?!
@@bluefunkybassman -- oh -- I thought Hugo was flying a drone that he got for his birthday ... ;-)
🤣
I just love this fugue and this performance is perfect in every respect - tempo, registration (especially the echo effect on the Brustwerk) and the no nonsense ending that doesn't pander to the temptation to do a slight rallentando in the last 2 bars. Brilliant, Richard (even though your playing does make me feel like a paraplegic!) Keep up the good work. I'm off to do some practice now!
This is my favorite piece of music….EVER! It changes your soul! Wonderful!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Sort of like walking a tightrope. If you look down you're lost.
Thanks for posting this wonderful and joyful piece.
Am I imagining things, or is this one of Bach's more fiendishly difficult organ works?
I’ve never heard this on the organ, only the harpsichord. This performance is wonderful, Richard.
Must have been a pedal harpsichord.
Such a perfect playing👏👏 without stop and it just continue from the first part until to the end. Marvelous 👍👍
Thank you Richard. Great to wake up to and help me start the day. Well done Hugo with the camera. Blessings from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Beautiful! This Gigue always puts a smile on my face!
Great tempo, so many organists play this so fast you loose the detail
A superb rendition and exquisite organ for it to be played on too. Thank you Richard
Wonderful tempo. Perfect articulation. Bravo.👏
You simply can't be in a bad mood after seeing that shirt 😏. As always, so good and so appreciated for BIS.
Wonderful, Richard! Superbly played, and the Ermelo sample is so bright and cheery, wonderful combination and registration.
Wonderful! A great performance filmed with some fine camera work, love it! I especially like the antiphonal effect with the Brustwerk. Thank you Richard!
Richard, a truly amazing mastery of my very favorite Bach organ piece. Bravo!!
Lovely
Thanks Richard
You made my day
God Bless
That was Beautiful!! Your phrasing, technique and ornamentation were GREAT! Your tempo was just perfect to "Jig" by as well!! Bravo!! Thank you...
Très belle prestation.Le tempo est parfait.On entend chaque note de façon claire.Bravo Monsieur McVeigh.
Merci beaucoup!
Wonderful!👏👏😊🌞
I really like that you have these shorter videos too. I find them somewhat easier to incorporate into my day.
One of my all-time favorites. Superbly done!
A wonderful first video of the day! Thank you so much.
I really enjoyed this - Brilliant playing and super camera shots - Thank you.
Wonderful played 💜💜💜
Bravo! Well done! Glorious music and exquisite playing. Thank you, Richard!
splendid
Absolutely brilliant and spot on! I really should finish learning this at some point. It's sooo much fun and leaves you smiling inside and out! 😍👏
My favorite Bach composition so masterfully played...Bravo!
Hi Richard. Just back from a trip and watched this video as soon as I saw it was up! I watched Virgil play this many times in concert back in the day, and your rendition of it takes me right back to those performances. Great registrations and articulation. One of my favorite pieces, and you did it proud!
Absolute world class performance, Richard. I remember watching you practice this recently, and finally seeing it performed is wonderful. Thank you!
Amazing!!
Absolutely fantastic! This piece looks so difficult, but it was brilliantly played.
Agreed!
It IS difficult
Bravo! Thank you, Richard!
Beautiful. I love Bach.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Enjoyed hearing this.
Terrific sound. Many thanks for uploading this video.
This piece is as fun to play as it is to hear. Nicely done, sir.
Lovely! That is a @#%! work to play, and it was fantastic!
In jest from the choir loft:
Actually Nala the cat can fly in from the choir loft,
and she uses a "Go-Pro" camera. She is such a talented kitty.
And Bobbie Cat runs the invisible Hauptwerk console stops.
incroyable
Bravo 👏🏻
Awesome playing Richard!
Virgil Fox loved this piece. And so do I
Perfect in every way!!
Wonderful thank you
Joyous!
Wonderful performance. Elegant tempo and crisp articulation. You make it look so effortless and I've played it so I know it's not easy.
There should be a law against being so damn perfect. You're under arrest Richard. And congratulations!
An impressive display of skill
FAb playing - enjoyed the echo effect. I suspect for the player, once you get it going it's difficult to stop!
Wonderful !!! So inspiring. Thank you
Absolutely Marvelous… A # 1-2 Favorite ! Watched Virgil play it on ok’d B &W video ,…. Richard is a Virgil clone !
Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🍻
So wonderful, thank for sharing!
Bravo!
Charming. Thank you.
Very nice!
Great performance. I also like this one.

I've noticed newer organists using tablets. There's lots of page turns on the piece when I play it. 🎼🎶🎶🎶
One of my all-time favorite pieces by Bach! Are you playing entirely on "Hauptwerk" software or are you playing the actual pipe organ? If it's hauptwerk, your console set-up is amazing!
Wonderful! Since I cannot read and play thisimultaneously, I had to memorize it. The mordents, grace notes and trills heard athe beginning should be continued throughout this magnificent work. Nice that Richard plays mordents others omit, such as 1:27, 1:55. (At 2:16 I mordent the pedal C.)
The pedal notes following should be played for full value, not shortchanged and separatedue to difficulty. At 2:18 I trill the pedal C#. Very unfortunate thathe videographer does not show the complex pedaling after 2:21. Again, those pedal noteshould be played full value and connected. We tend to shortchange notes trying to geto the next notes.
Mordenthe G at 2:29, E at 2:45. 3:01 Mordenthe pedal. Playing this fromemory will sound even better!
I like the little kitty figures on the console. Where are those from? they look Scandinavian. Lively music to start my morning.
Greetings Richard
Hello. On a related subject can you shed any light on why Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in E Major is so seldom performed, or recorded?
BWV 566. Have been an organ listener for 60 years and only recently discovered it. My new obsession!! Thanks.
I agree with Doug Alderdice. Perfect tempo and articulate. I once requested you play this as postlude for VC. Are you game?
And my wife got up and did a line dance to this…😇🤗
👍💯
Tell me about the different drawknob configurations. I notice they're different for different pieces.
A joyous performance Richard, bravo, a trivial question, how do you turn pages on the ipad when your hands and feet are busy?
Thank you for this. Love this piece and a great rendition. Have a technical question. How do you get the iPad to "flip" through music as you're playing? I've copied 'pics' of music onto my iPad but still have to manually "flip" through the pics. Thanks for any advice.
It’s the Pro element of ForScore - it recognises my mouth twitching!
Richard, which page turn method do you use with forScore? I didn't see you pushing any buttons on some bluetooth device, and not turning your head either or anything? I'm using a bluetooth foot page turn device with my piano, but that's obviously not ideal with organs ;)
Moderate tempo, and no dry staccato, good ! But I don't like so much the Mixtures for the fugas. The same for the pedal, the Fagott 16' is too heavy. But I like the tempo and the phrasing, I'm learning it like that.
How does he turn the pages on the ipad?
Super ! - Is this organ in the process of being refurbished or something ? - Most of the stops are missing.
No the organ is complete. The stop heads match up to the virtual organ I’m playing; the smaller the virtual organ the fewer stop heads I need. Some other videos on BIS have much larger virtual organs.
Syncoper dubbelpunktering as you do now perfect comming legato romantic line.perfect lsoftly and tenderly mitt i prick . OH what a evangelium Jesus said thank you Rx PEOLE comming to. Cry of happynes. Solie deo gloria
Do you ever play without shoes seems like it would be more comfortab!e
Well played, Richard. I'd have liked the little echo passages in the original exposition on the Swell as well (e.g. at 13 and 27 seconds). but bravo!
They weren’t in my score, but I know that some people do do them
How does that electronic score work? I mean how do the "pages" get "turned"?
It's through an app called ForScore
Thanks@@magnifyoparah2402
hey richard, im wondering how much ram you have on your organ!
128GB
@@beautyinsound and then theres me with my measly 22 gb, love your work!
We were hoping for socks to match the jersey.
Very nicely done Richard! Excellent organ, registration,and tempo ... this is a very special piece to me -- the first organ piece I learned (self-taught at age 16 -- when I fell in love with it from E. Power Biggs' recording).
I had hoped that you would hold the quarter notes rather than play them staccato -- i.e. "tah - dit tah - dit tah ..." rather than "dit - dit dit - dit dit ... " -- it makes it so much more lyrical. You did this when you sight-read this fugue a few months prior -- holding the quarter notes beautifully! * (see your playing and my comments at th-cam.com/video/Uo0ai0Zpf4w/w-d-xo.html ). One can get a sense of how this would sound by playing your sight-reading th-cam.com/video/Uo0ai0Zpf4w/w-d-xo.html at 2:17:05 with the playback speed set to 1.25 ( or 1.5 ... !!!! ) -- it really sings!!! . . . ;-)
But, for now, E, Power Biggs' recording still holds the crown for me. Nice try, though - maybe someday.
E. Power Biggs' recording remains the best I havever heard. First heard it in high school band class. Loved it so much that I took the record home over Christmyth break.
In the pedal Biggs accidentally hits an adjacent note, sounding much like a mordent. Soundso good that I _purposely_ play the "Biggs mordent" there.
The staccato is caused by hurriedly getting into position to play the next note. Even Biggsometimes does this. Thoughis pedal is frustratingly flawed later, Biggs'till remains my favorite recording.
My favorite organist, Helmut Walcha, does not play this in his "Complete Organ Works" on ArchivEdition. Wish that I had written to Helmut praising everything that he did and asking why 577 is omitted.
