- Martin Baker plays the Chaconne from J. S. Bach’s Partita in D minor (BWV 1004) in the monumental arrangement for solo organ by Wilhelm Middelschulte. Written between 1717 and 1720, the Chaconne is the final movement of the suite and is written in the form of variations. It lasts approximately as long as the first four movements combined and demonstrates both the sheer virtuosity of the performer alongside the vast array of colour available on the Ruffatti organ of Buckfast Abbey.

Masterpiece in every way - Bach the genius, brilliant organ and Baker doing justice to both
The most inspired piece of playing I've so far heard on the Buckfast Abbey organ. The registrations were simply gorgeous!
This is an amazing recording. Martin Baker plays it phenomenally. A true masterpiece. This chaconne is one of Bach‘s most fascinating compositions. It is a wonderful view into the German soul. Touching to see how Martin Baker plays it. It has it all! The registrations support the message in a unique way. The organ is fabulous, but Baker know how to get the best out of it. Thank you.
Auf den Punkt gebracht! ❤ Leider nicht alle deutsche Seelen können es spüren und in den Klang gehen... annehmen einer Tatsache dass es doch ein Seelenpartner gibt und das Treffen mit ihm nicht einfach für den Verstand wird, obwohl das Herz längst entschieden hat!
Superbly done! An incredilbly moving piece played magnificently.
È una delle poche “ciaccone” eseguite in modo
unico, con timbrica e sonorità, acustica perfetta,
Bravoooooooooooo👏👏👏
The quality of the recording is amazing !
An inspired performance indeed. Watched Thomas Ospital play this piece two weeks ago, St. Eustache Paris (transc. Henri Messerer). Both very good, albeit different arrangements. This is an excellent rendition.
Fabulous Martin! Very fine performance!🎉
I have loved the sound of this instrument since I first heard David Patrick play it, great performance, beautiful registrations and colour in the sound, love the soft wood stops.
I've listened again! Middelschulte would have been very happy with this performance.
Bravo🎉🎉🎉

I hear the mythic beast murmuring, crying its emotions, echoing in the chamber.

...лишь один немой у церкви святого Иоанна стоял
И его взору внимал.
В той самой, Иоганн в последний раз Токкату сыграл...
Без почести был похоронен,
Позднее в душах влюбленных
вновь оживал.
Там на шестом шаге от южной стены,
Навсегда покоится прах и людские мечты!
Он знал - столетия пройдут,
Орган и церковь в вечность уйдут...

is this available as a CD/SACD?

I like this interpretation, but to me it sounds a bit "muddy" and confused on the organ. So many of Bach's beautiful melodies were lost in the acoustics.
There are a few fantastic performances and arrangements on CZcams played on piano, but I haven’t yet come across an excellent organ one. It’s not a problem with the performers who are incredible, but that this piece just may not work as well for organ as so many others that were composed for it and not later adapted. Odd for Bach music to not just work for every instrument after all.
That is an old video
