“Bach’s Dorian Toccata”
Dorian Toccata and Fugue by J. S. Bach and Prelude in F-sharp minor by Dieterich Buxtehude
Cyrill Schmiedlin – Organ
Johann Sebastian Bach’s so-called “Dorian Toccata and Fugue,” BWV 538, is one of his most impressive organ works. The Toccata develops an unstoppable musical flow from a striking motif, while the grand-scale fugue, with its artful architecture and dramatic build-up, showcases Bach’s full mastery.
With Dieterich Buxtehude’s Prelude in F-sharp minor, the program delves into the North German organ tradition that had a decisive influence on the young Bach. Free, improvisational-sounding sections alternate with rigorously crafted fugal passages, giving rise to music full of imagination and expression.
A program that connects two generations of great organ masters—and makes audible how Bach’s monumental organ art grew out of Buxtehude’s free sound world.
