This is one of the great masterpieces by J.S. Bach played on the Hildebrandt Organ in the Church of St Wenzel in Naumburg, Germany by Alexei Galea Cavallazzi.
This is one of many recordings by the Mediterranean Conference Centre in Malta exhibiting historical instruments and played by the Music Director at the Mediterranean Conference centre in Malta. The aim of these recordings is to bring to life the majestic works of Bach and give a cultural and historical context to the magnificent music and the queen of instruments.

The music of the spheres! When Bach is played, we are transported into the spaciousness and dynamics of the universe.

This organ plays together with the church. I visited this wonderful instrument some years ago. I love it. Bravo! I could stay and play on this organ until the end of my life.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🍻 I love playing the Dorian far more than the well known toccata and fugue in d minor

Magnificent, Alexei! Thank you for your performance. I can only imagine what it must be like to play this organ...wonderful!

Playing Bach on such an instrument means being human. It means that the meaninglessness of life or rather the fact that it is beyond having meaning is powerless for that moment since after all those years of evolution here I sit and produce such sounds with such beauty !!! It redeems all our unresolved questions about life. In fact I felt strange writing that since I have no questions left. I simply remembered what it was like to have them. The appreciation of Beauty is the real mystery and is the fount of everything mystical. In short it’s great to play that organ

A sublime performance of perhaps Bach's greatest organ work, on a world heritage instrument. Maybe the best organ video on KZfaq. THANK YOU!

EXCELLENT! I remember that I studied this toccata and fugue in my undergraduate time. It's possibly one of the rare cases in which it is advisable - at least for the toccata - n to use no 16' stops for the manuals and no 32' for the pedals (the work would lose its clarity). Thanks a lot for posting it!

Awesome. No need for assistance or registration. BACH would be proud of that.

Splendida esecuzione. Veloce, brillante e danzante, Ottima la sceelta dei registri, che permette do godere dell'effetto eco tra il principale e il positivo nella toccata. Complimenti, una delle migliori esecuzioni mai ascoltate!

Sicurezza, tempi, esecuzione a memoria. Un trio perfetto assieme alla resa organistica. E' stato un gusto ed una elevazione ascoltare la Dorica : Bravo Alexei👍

Fantastique j'apprend ce jour, qu'il fat avoir un manche à ballet dans le cul pour monter les escaliers, lorsque l'on est organiste et que l"on essaye de jouer la Dorienne de JS Bach, c'est bien j'aurai au moins appris quelque chose à défaut de pouvoir apprécier.. C.G

Sans compter les pointes ! nous, nous croyons à une représentation du lac des cygnes avec les ballerines effectuants leurs pointes, sauf que nous sommes à la console d'un instrument sacré et béni par l'église, nous sommes censés respecté les lieux lorsque nous somme assis devant cet illustre instrument et non pas jouer une réplique de la ."cage aux folles" ...

J'ajoute / que l'exécution d'une œuvre de Bach, n'et pas un sprint et que par conséquence, ce n'est pas le point d"orgue finale qui est visé... de plus pauvre banc d'orgue, faut il qui soit solide pour supporter une baleine en velours côtelé, se dandinant d'avant d'arrière, tangage et roulis le nouveau style du jeux d'orgue ...bref tout et dit!
