I didn't really like Ton Koopman when I first heard him, but now I have a lot of respect for him. he has a real flair for Bach and his trills and embellishments add an improvisatory vibe that I think is very fitting for Bach's work. (I've read that Bach's own improvisations were something to be heard...) That run at 5:24... Fantastic!

Koopman is probably the world's foremost Bach interpreter on the organ: awe inspiring playing.

I had the pleasure of listening to, and watching Ton Koopman play in Victoria BC and was fascinated in his pedal technique of only playing "toe, toe, toe...." Amazing!

Che esecuzione meravigliosa e piena di energia positiva! Davvero travolgente! Ed in più l'adozione di una registrazione organistica che rende il massimo merito a questa magnifica pagina di letteratura organistica. Ogni volta che la riascolto è come se fosse la prima, non mi stancherò mai!!

It sounds like Koopman inserted a whole raft load of his own improvisations into this above and beyond what Bach added.

There's been confusion at times on the identity of the composer of the violin concerto this is an arrangement of. Prince Johann Ernst IV of Saxe-Weimar (1696-1715) was the nephew of Bach's employer, Duke Wilhelm Ernst, and the younger half brother of Duke Ernst August, who was nominally co-ruler with Wilhelm Ernst, although the older uncle refused to share power. Some say that Johann Ernst should have been a co-ruler too, but I'm not certain of that.

The nearest performance of the same work that comes even close to this, is by Elena Barshai. I believe, though not sure, that she multi-tracked for her recording. The Martinikerk organ and Mr Koopman are both deservedly legendary.

@advisorC101 In EMS, I've seen lots of deadrunks. "Any drunk that can be rolled, should be." -R.Gift, 1971 ("Rolled" means his wallet emptied.) A drunk patient had almost $800 in his back pocket. Police thought he had been assaulted. If so, his money would have been taken. I think he fell and hit his head on a cement parking wheel stop. He died of a depressed skull fracture.
