My great great uncle was organ player at St. Jacob in Prague. In early 70's he gave 2 hour organ concert in Prague's Rudolfinum. ( Look it up!) Tickets were sold out almost immediately. I asked him for a few for me and my friends. On the night of the concert he let us in by the side entrance and let us sit at the instrument on the floor next to him, us facing the auditorium, our backs resting on the bas pipes section, him sitting on his bench next to us to our right. Czechs have a strange habit. They will not leave any concert hall without so rigorous applause at the end until the artist add some more performance, but of course only if the artist is worthy. ( Aretha Franklin for example had 2 of them when there). My uncle was a quite aged man by then, but still heavenly organ player and his program left people screaming , shouting and stomping in unbridled ovations for more to come. He returned, played another piece, I believe Ce'sar Franck. Another ovation resumed. So he added another rather short piece, I believe his own variations and the same pandemonium commenced. Pandemonium, flowers buckets thrown, people screaming Bravo! So..... he returned again, quite tired now and performed this very piece. Imagine the sound waves penetrating our bodies as we were in physical contact with that magnificent instrument. Then magic happened! After he hit the final reverberating accord everyone present almost in unison got up, some people tossed reminding flowers and quietly, now in complete peace, walked out of the hall, no longer applauding. There was nothing else the audience could do, the pinnacle of music was reached, our souls overflowing, and there wasn't anything else left on our planet Earth to add.

It starts off dark and scary but it turns into one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, even from my childhood I never grew tired from the works of JS Bach, his music instilled a love of music for me that I carry with me to this day. That’s not something that can be said for any musician, whether this is on organ or piano it is beautiful, good work playing this.

First time I've heard it as a piano piece. I like it as it is less muddy sounding to me. More crisp. The organ version is definitely more terrifying though.

The video you mentioned, "XAVER VARNUS PLAYS BACH'S TOCCATA & FUGUE IN THE BERLINER DOM," showcases the organ player's skill in letting the notes reverberate throughout the room, creating a breathtaking atmosphere. The resonance of the 32' pipes adds a deep, soul-shaking quality to the performance that truly enhances the overall effect. It's an extraordinary rendition that captivates and leaves a lasting impression, something that a piano is just incapable of doing.

Hey! Idk if you’ll read this but thank you so much for this! I’ve been learning this for the past six months, and while I can’t read sheet music very well I can play this at tempo until 2:58!

To me it sounds more angry/frustrated from the depths of your soul yet failing to fully express it, then getting frustrated at your lack of ability to express that frustration. Wrathful almost. But there is an element that is crying out for help mixed in too. There is also a steely edge to it too, the kind you get from when youve decided to do something no matter what.

You really shouldn't learn a piece like this that is waaaay above a beginner's level. Focus on learning to read the sheet music and sharpening your technical skills to get to this point. Trust me, you won't regret it!

Don’t listen to that guy. Yes it’s true, if you want good long term habits and skills on the piano, you should learn sheet music and fingering techniques. But life is short, and you’ll learn a lot if you’re really dedicated. Keep trying and learning! You can do it.

If people kept to such "wisdom," no-one would ever push themselves to go past their comfort zone. I became a **huge** "Phantom of the Opera" fan back I'm high school. I wanted to learn the music just that badly. So my dad got me the piano-and-vocal songbook. Mom was like, "Don't you think that's a bit above your skill level?" My response? "Maybe, but I've got a great teacher who can help me." And I did. Plus, I practiced that music like crazy, for maybe 2 hours straight (or more!) per day, just because I wanted and needed the blissful escape into a world I knew. By playing that music, I pushed my limits, and I found myself wanting to switch music teachers because the one I had could only teach me so much by that time. But then, that's sort of how I've usually been. 😅

Ultimately this is meant for organ, but with organ some of the note intracacies can blur together in ambiance, so I loved hearing and SEEING it on piano! Thanks for this fabulous upload of history's greatest musical architect!

Absolutely one of the greatest geniuses of the western world.

By the time J. S. Bach was in his prime, his kind of music was going out of style. He was recognized as one of Europe's greatest organists, but popular tastes were shifting to a lighter, more secular kind of music. His heavy old stuff was like what we called "longhair music" in the 1950s.
