Bach Toccata and Fugues, and Preludes and Fugues
Recording: The
Dedication Recital, First Presbyterian Church, La Grange, Georgia
Organist: John Weaver
Organ: Wicks Opus 6363, First Presbyterian Church, La Grange, Georgia
This is the piece in the aforementioned video, in its entirety (both videos showed only the fugue)
Recording: (1975) The Virgil Fox Bach Book
Organist: Virgil Fox
Organ: Aeolian-Skinner Organ Opus 1118, The Riverside Church, New York City
This is a very symphonic and dramatic interpretation. Very cool, though not very baroque.
