J.S. BACH "Little" Fugue in G Minor, BWV 578 - Paul Jacobs, Organ
Музыка
Grammy Award-winning organist Paul Jacobs performs Johann Sebastian Bach's "Little" Fugue in G minor, BWV 578 on the Hazel Wright Organ at Christ Cathedral, Garden Grove, CA. "Hazel" is the fifth largest organ in the world, with more than 17,000 pipes and nearly 300 ranks. It combines the 1962 Aeolian-Skinner instrument from Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City with the 1977 Ruffatti organ originally built for the Garden Grove Community Church (later the Crystal Cathedral).
Paul Jacobs is the first organist to receive a Grammy Award (for Olivier Messiaen's towering Livre du Saint-Sacrement) and is considered "America's leading organ performer." At age 23 he performed the complete organ works of J.S. Bach in an 18-hour non-stop marathon concert, and at age 26 was appointed chair of the Organ Department at The Juilliard School. Jacobs, known for a prodigious musical memory, has performed on five continents and in each of the 50 United States, and as a concerto soloist with many major orchestras. www.pauljacobsorgan.com/

And the lyrics are,”Bach was born in sixteen hundred eighty- five”.
I have not even heard of this organist, and this might unironically be my favorite interpretation of this piece, amazing.

Me too - many versions I find too slow to be honest, and in terms of articulation - too much of this or not enough of that.. this one is perfect.

he is the only grammy-awared organist afaik on the planet. He is head at the Julliard school in NYC. Check is Reger Fantasie and Fugue, by memory, registering himself on KZread, it's out of this world

Paul Jacobs has been performing for at least the 16 years that I have known about him. I heard him perform in Pennsylvania (Bethlehem) and Florida ( Port Orange) in the same week. We need to hear a lot more from this remarkable musician.
I've been listening this piece for many years now and it is a shame I've discovered Paul Jacobs so far in my journey! Great work, this is my favorite interpretation of this piece and for sure best audio and video quality on KZread
And Johann Seb smiled broadly while giving a "thumbs up."😃👍

The ghost of Bach: oooooh I aprooooooooooooove woooooooooooooooooo
This is why Bach is the best. His ingenious ways he was able to skilfully improvise on various themes is a testament to his brilliance and greatness.
Some pieces by Bach are truly transcendent.
Totally fantastic.
Best-sounding recording of this instrument I've ever heard.
A superlative performance on this extraordinary, recently restored instrument. Dr. Jacobs is a remarkable musician, and currently the Chairman of the Organ Department at Juilliard School of Music. We are looking forward to his upcoming performance in Portland, ME on the Kotzschmar organ.
Paul, I love your playing so much
Extraordinary combinaton of composition, artist and instrument resulting in what is, I think, the most imaginative and thoroughly convincing performance of this magnificent work by J S Bach. Thank you, Paul Jacobs!

Thank you! I'm glad you like the interpretation of this iconic Bach fugue!
I’m hooked on this interpretation or rendition. I’ve been playing it almost nonstop. It’s the best I’ve found so far. It was actually video game music that got me here. 😊 Bach’s music is quite the hit and a huge compositional inspiration in the gaming circle. A lot of games feature his pieces. “Little” Fugue is the final boss music in 𝘔𝘦𝘨𝘢 𝘔𝘢𝘯 𝘓𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴. I had Paul’s performance aired on a weekly video game music show broadcast by a college radio station. I’m a huge fan of video game music, mainly because I’m a musician-a classically trained pianist who secretly wants to be an organist. 😁
Exquisite.
Marvelous. I've always loved this one by Bach and here it's played beautifully. Nothing can compare with a full-bodied pipe organ's pedal notes!
Just an excellent performance !! Thank you, Mr. Jacobs, for sharing this. Regards
Great job Paul!
Very musical! Wonderful playing as always, Paul. Always a pleasure to listen to you. Thank you.
Lovely. Nice Romantic, late nineteenth-century interpretation of this marvellous work.

Paul Welcome Back to the Hazel Wright Organ I have the many posts of You from many yrs ago performing Cantata 29 before the restoration . MagicalPipes .
That moment when some of those knobs (?) suddenly pop up and I have to rewind the video just to make sure my eyes did not deceive me.

I think you mean the stops. The organist can control it, and add more or remove some, to change the sound of the organ.
WOW!!! Absolut brillant gespielt. Wundervolle Orgel und Stück, nebst virtuosem Organisten....
Brillante esecuzione..Complimenti Maestro. Grande Organo Ruffatti

ピアノの音色がいいですね❗教会に行くと、流れてそうな感じがします。心が癒されそうです。
Totally persuasive! 3:35
Очень жду в Вашем исполнении BWV 561, 588, 537, 565, да что там, все органные фуги Баха! Вы отлично исполняете, мне очень нравится.
praise the lord!
Toll.Mega Performance suf dem (einen) Manual der Orgel
I'm well familiar with the organ and all the hype as it (she) exists very close to my home. I get it, this instrument literally has all the bells and whistles! But it is nice to hear something familiar like this tune, instead of a strange cacophony.
😮😮😮👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊😉👍👍

D minor is sorrow for the other. G minor is saying goodbye.
Dear Mr. Jacobs, for many years, there was a BACH präludium (in C ?) avaliable, which you performed in the times of Christ(al) Cathedral. Is it possible, to get this version somewhere ?
