Description
It was brought to my attention that, yesterday, at the State Funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, there was only one non-Biritsh piece of music included. It was of course penned by our beloved J.S. Bach, whose inclusion in the royal festivities made an impression on me.
The piece was this gorgeous fantasy for organ BWV 562, discussed in this episode. Enjoy!
The unfinished harpsichord fugue discussed by me
Marie-Claire Alain's performance of BWV 562
Martin Lücker's performance of BWV 562
