Das Orgelbüchlein, BWV 622, 623, 624, 625, 626

Registrations attached.

Backstory: A couple years after Hauptwerk brought me back to the organ after 15, I realized that I was serious enough that I should try to rid myself of the substitutions, heels and fingerings that I had absorbed from Keller and Dupré in my scant studies in the 1960s and early 70s. The decision was aided by my discovery of Faulkner's edition of the Orgelbüchlein and Fagius's 49 Organ Works. After I finished working through those, it seemed a good idea to make a second pass.

I also wanted to explore a couple new organs and more that I had installed earlier but not used much, so I started my new project. Having uploads to CBCC as a goal keeps me on track.

Last spring I uploaded BWV 599-621. Those recordings were among those that disappeared in the summer during some maintenance of the site. I think I'll repost them.

Chico will be followed by its sibling, Freiberg, then by Arnstadt and Weißenau. I hope to finish the project before my upcoming 80th birthday. Old dog still hoping for new tricks.
