Exactly this piece was the first thing I could play properly on the organ, and its character shaped my understanding of Bach's music: this is how Bach must sound: energetic in flow - clear in the voices.
This can only be achieved if the note values in e.g. a semiquaver run become shorter and shorter towards the end; the first semiquavers in full length and then shorter piece by piece until towards the end a semiquaver note is composed of a sounding 32nd note and a 32nd rest. This is the simple principle of NeoBarock ;-)
I do play the pieces, but I can't do it fluently and constantly in the often murderous tempo. Therefore I let render the recorded MIDI tracks according to the above rules by a self programmed Java Application ( kind of A.I.) to the final product.
Enough of the speech - have fun now with this snappy chorale!
