    Bach wrote this at somepoint between 1700 and 1703 so he was between the ages of 15-18... WOW!
    One of his earliest organ preludes and fugues.

    It staggers the mind to consider the amount of music that Bach composed. How did he ever have the time to even write it out on paper, much less compose it?

      @Sebu der Gamer Bach would spend more time actually writing down new music than he did composing it. Look at the amazing Ricercare a 3 from the Musical Offering. He improvised that entire piece on the spot in front of Frederick the Great.

      @Sebu der Beaneater you're right, composing fugue is mindblowing hard. But we talking about master JS Bach! For this man, composing a fugue is as simple as drinking coffee.

    The pedal voice at 4:06-07 is interesting. This is the only example I know of where Bach writes the pedal voice like this. So why don’t we find it otherwise? 4:06-07 is demanding to play fast with your bare toes. Well, then he also played with his heels, didn’t he? But in that case, we should have seen the same melody line in other organ works as well. Or was he still so young that he played so much slower that he could play it with his bare toes? Does anyone have a good suggestion? In later organ works, it is evident that he did not play with his heels, because otherwise he did not have to simplify the pedal voice as he does in a number of the organ works.(translate program)

      That is very complicated mate , but one thing i can assure you is that Bach was so good at pedals , it's just perfectly composed especially in his fugues like BWV 537 and BWV 538 , I can't stop myself from replaying the fugue part 300 times

    • @geiryvindeskeland7208
      @geiryvindeskeland7208 Před 2 lety

      Taha, I am sorry afor my inadequate English. Thanks for your reply. But I don’t understand why you mention BWV 537 and 538. None of those fugues are a challenge for your feet. BWV 532 is much harder, and the pedal solo in th Toccata Bwv 564 is a real challenge.(at least in his own lifetime) The pedal soli from the Toccata BWV 540 is also a bigger challenge then 537 and 538. Remember that the pedals was horizontal back then, made it little bit harder than today when they played at the top or the bottom. And what about the fugue subject BWV 543 in the pedal? Notise that Bach had to remove one single note, else the fugue would be almost impossible to play fast. But maybe I misunderstood your points about BWV 537 and 538?

    Such a pity Chapuis performed Bach without any sign of interpretation and feeling. Sounds like a pure MIDI file.
