Among Bach’s most beloved and celebrated works, his six Brandenburg Concertos demonstrate some of the most daring and innovative instrumental scoring in the entire Baroque repertoire. Whether the ground-breaking blend of hunting horns and oboes with strings of No. 1, the bright piccolo trumpet of No. 2 (which inspired Paul McCartney’s Penny Lane) or the remarkable No. 5 in which the harpsichord strikes out alone above the orchestra for virtuosic glory, this flawless collection of gems is pure delight.

Bach's famous Passacaglia (and Fugue) in C minor, featuring the Toccata virtual pipe organ from Sonokinetic (https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/classical/toccata/). A very relaxing snippet of classical music performed on piano caught my attention while watching a dystopian sci-fi movie the other night; it turns out it was an excerpt from this Passacaglia. I wanted to replicate that feel, but it was originally written for pipe organ, and I felt that only an organ could do it justice. (I tried a couple other possibilities, but wasn't satisfied with them.) Nonetheless, I wanted to maintain as much gentleness as possible, and not resort to pulling out all sorts of stops, as many modern pipe organ players are prone to do. Actually, the score hinted that the drama would build up just fine without adding anything to it (except for some careful interpretation, of course). So, I used a very simple flute registration, and maintained it throughout the piece. Although some judicious registration could enhance the piece, I wanted the composition to speak for itself, and I think it works just fine "as is". For a very tasteful interpretation, with delightful registration, check out organist Ulf Norberg on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfAzR2Ut-jM; and at the other extreme, pipe organ superstar Cameron Carpenter does his fast and highly registrated take at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UxIcKJyZZE
