Bach wrote A LOT of "most beautiful music". For me: I celebrate the man's whole catalogue. I have all three "Gesamtwerk"-collection of records that are available. Bach never wrote anything weak, sure there are personal favourites, but what makes Bach the greatest composer of all time, among other things, is that he did not wreak any of his havoc. Every Cantata is beautiful and of sound technical quality. Some moments in Bach are better than other sure, but we have to consider his complete works in order to do justice to his credentials.

I see a number of comments on the Tempo. For those who don’t understand how organs worked in Bach’s day, this is a tracker action instrument. All the opening of the valves comes from the force of the performer’s fingers. It is a completely different animal from a modern or re-engineered organ where the valves open electrically. The technique switch is almost as tough as going from piano to organ. Most organists can’t make it (I was one).

@@BertHassoKEMNITZ-ls1prThe hymn tune "St. Anne" (common metre 86.86) to which the text is most often sung was composed by William Croft in 1708 whilst he was the organist of St Anne's Church, Soho: hence the name of the tune. It first appeared anonymously in the Supplement to the New Version of the Psalms, 6th edition in 1708. It was originally intended to be used with a version of Psalm 62. It was not until sometime later when set to Watts' text that the tune gained recognition. William Croft as a choirboy, circa 1690. National Portrait Gallery, London. Later composers subsequently incorporated the tune in their own works. For example, George Handel used the tune in an anthem entitled, "O Praise the Lord". J. S. Bach's Fugue in E-flat major BWV 552 is often called the "St. Anne" in the English-speaking world, because of the similarity of its subject to the first line of the hymn tune, though there is some debate as to whether Bach used the actual tune after hearing it, or coincidentally created himself the very similar tune used as the fugal theme. Young Bach's inspirator and mentor Dieterich Buxtehude, church administrator and organist of St Mary's in Lübeck in north Germany, used the same first line of the hymn tune as theme for the (first) fugue of his Praeludium-pedaliter in E major for organ.

The other observation I would make is on the pedal technique. I leaned the organ in England and was taught heel and toe pedal, enchiladas is certainly helpful when trying to do legato or chords. When I moved to Dijon I was taught by one Mlle. Chaisemartin, who was a pupil of Marie-Claire Alain, one of the finest of her generation. Mlle. Chaisemartin thought that my English heel and toe technique was so hilarious that she would have other students and the Conservatoire come in to view it as an example of what not to do. I still wonder what the Mighty Johann himself would have said…
