What a beautiful legato, and how easily one can follow, at any instant, each of the six voices. Bravo.

Bravísimo Ben! Tu interpretación es ejemplar, rítmicamente impecable, con una registración bellísima y con una comprensión poco frecuente del desarrollo de una obra tan compleja, interpretada, además, de memoria. Te felicito por tu aplicación, por tu sentido de la responsabilidad artística, y te doy calurosamente las gracias por esta versión que me agrada escuchar con frecuencia y que comparto entre mis amigos más jóvenes para que les sirva de modelo y de estímulo. Que sigas siempre así.

Ben Kerswell, you are a wonderful musician! I think that J.S. Bach was the the greatest musical architect, as his form and organicity (no pun intended) were exquisite and perfectly constructed. You do a terrific job of expressing all of that in this ricercar. Bravo.

This music is absolute in the best sense of the word can be performed on anything that has an executable pitch. Actually the case with everything by JS Bach.

One can only repeat, hearing this unbelievable piece, (according to a saying of Beethoven): It should not be called BACH (= Stream), but MEER (= Sea)!

How about a video of the Ricercar a 3 from "The Musical Offering," thereby providing the other "book-end" to this incredible piece of music? It seems to me it would be especially appropriate to hear the original piece inspired by the theme given to Bach by King Frederick the Great of Prusssia!

I've been playing the organ for over 40 years, and I just added this to my favorites. That means something. One suggestion though. A legato style with such a harmonically dense work isn't ideal. A more attacking style seems to work better. See this as a great example. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqjJpXV9Zrt_nJosi=HRfRLEONdQhTT3ha

You evidently know nothing about the origin of this piece. The theme of this fugue was propounded to Bach by King Frederick the Great in 1747. The chromatically descending tetrachord in the king's theme was the traditional lament motif from the 17th century to the late 18th century.
