J.S. BACH - Fugue in G minor BWV 542 (Anne-Isabelle de Parcevaux, organ)

Описание: Anne-Isabelle de Parcevaux plays J.S. Bach's great Fugue in G minor BWV 542 for organ.

Bach's biographer Spitta and some others scholars think that the Fugue was improvised in 1720 during Bach's audition for an organist post at St. James' Church in Hamburg. The theme or subject of the Fugue, a Dutch popular tune (called 'Ik ben gegroet van...'), would have been given to Bach for him to demonstrate his talents as an improviser.
It has been suggested that the choice of a Dutch tune was in homage to Johann Adam Reincken, the long-serving organist at St. Catherine's Church, Hamburg, who was born in the Netherlands.
During his 1720 trip to Hamburg Bach is believed to have met Reincken, whose music he had known since his teens.
