Sep 19, 2009 - But the whole *point* is that Bach wouldn't have been able to make stop changes without HIMSELF having a free hand to do so. There's no place in this fugue where you can do anything but a manual change.

The tempos were well thought out, since it seems this space does not have much more than about a second and a half reverberation period, though it's difficult to hear, especially in the fugue. Bravo master Karosi, it's on par with Chorzempa, no doubt!

Oct 14, 2009 - A comment about registration: I see no need for profuse changes in registration in this fugue. Bach's own music is enough to drive the energy and ceaseless movement towards the two bar trill then it is relentless in its pursuit of the final C major chord. This rolling fugue to me is exemplary perfection of baroque "verve."

Nov 2, 2009 - A comment about registration: I see no harm in the profuse changes in registration in this fugue. I find this interpretation refreshing and authentic. It's pretty obvious that Bach's thoughts are flowing through this man, and the mix is marvelous.

Mar 10, 2010 - What are you talking about everyone knows Bach had the ability to change stops by looking at them

ForestChav mowi:

Mar 14, 2010 - Did he have the spare hand to pull them though?

Terrdemarzielle mowi:

Mar 14, 2010 - Assuming the 'spare hand' is some poor goon assigned to pull it for him, then yes. Otherwise no.

Jun 1, 2010 - the head bobbing and conducting yourself when you have a free hand is a little over the top. The performance is great though.

Jul 13, 2010 - You are fantastic- this is a gorgeous piece, one of my favorite Bach compositions and you certainly did the the 5th Evangel justice!

Oct 2, 2010 - j'admire ce jeune organiste qui bat en même temps qu'il joue ce qui lui assure une continuité et une constance dans le tempo de cette pièce extraoordinaire, félécitation pour cette interprétation magistrale.

Dec 7, 2010 - what kind of organ is this?
