Complete Organ Works, Vol.4 - with CD-Rom - Toccatas & Fugues / Individual works - Breitkopf Urtext - New Edition in 10 Volumes - Organ - (EB 8804)

The first two Bach volumes (5 and 6) were enthusiastically acclaimed by experts. Harald Vogel, for example, wrote: This is how I've always imagined a good Bach edition. And since the expectations keep growing, the benchmark has been raised very high for Volume 4, Toccatas (and Fugues), which contains the famous D-minor Toccata BWV 565. The editor of Volume 4, the Swiss organist Jean-Claude Zehnder, has amply proven his mettle as a Bach specialist here. Of particular interest in this book is the Canzona in d BWV 588. Written before 1707, this early work is found in a contemporary copy by Johann Gottlieb Preller with embellishments, fingerings and a closing cadenza; this version is printed in the Appendix. The enclosed CD-ROM contains early versions, further ornamented versions, and pieces that can clearly no longer be attributed to Bach.
