Jean Guillou Aux Grandes Orgues De Breda J.S.Bach Toccatas Et Fugues UHQCD

Jean Guillou's interpretation of the Toccatas and Fugues refers to the latest edition of the collected works of Johann Sebastian Bach, the Leipzig "New Bach Edition". His innovative and unconventional style accompanies Guillou throughout his career both as an organist and as a teacher. Through his technical skills and his ability to improvise, he became one of the leading international organists.
His role model function coupled with profound technical know-how enabled the construction of amazing new organs for various European cathedrals and concert halls in theory and design, which expand the potential of the instruments.
For every Bach lover, and especially the friends of his organ compositions, this album is an absolute must. Thanks to Guillou's inspired playing, the organ in Breda Cathedral – one of the largest in the Netherlands – literally awakens from its slumber. The recording was made on 15/17 November 1984.
