J.S. Bach: Toccata and Fugue
There is no piece of music as synonymous with the organ than J.S. Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor BWV565: the two-note introductory motif is as well recognised as the opening of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, and has featured widely in popular culture such as Disney’s Fantasia and The Phantom of the Opera.
Composer: Johann Sebastian Bach
Artists: Stefano Molardi (organ)

Interestingly, it may actually be an arrangement for organ of an original work for violin, possibly not even by Bach himself! However, regardless of its authenticity, it is this fantastical and much-loved piece that opens Stefano Molardi’s recital of Bach’s greatest compositions for the ‘king of instruments’.
This video continues with the master works Toccata and Fugue in F Major BWV 540a, Toccata and Fugue in D Minor BWV 538 also known as Dorian and the Toccata, Adagio and Fugue in C Major BWV 564.
Award-winning organist, harpsichordist, conductor and scholar Stefano Molardi is a peerless interpreter, having complete the recording of Bach’s Organ Music for Brilliant Classics. The instruments heard in this video date from Bach’s time, therefore bringing us as close as possible to the sound world of the great Leipzig Cantor and allowing us to hear them as he might have done himself.
