Bach - Prelude and fugue in E minor BWV 533 - Schouten | Netherlands Bach Society
This Prelude and fugue in E minor, performed by Dorien Schouten for All of Bach, originates from the time when Bach was still in his twenties. He had just got his first real job in Arnstadt. This position as a highly paid organist had fallen into his lap in 1703, after a brilliant performance when testing the new organ. But a couple of years later, it was actually criticism of his organ playing that was given as one of the reasons for letting him go. He was supposedly played too many strange notes and variations in his chorale preludes. The church council believed that this confused the congregation.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on June 23rd 2013 at the Bovenkerk, Kampen. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel and consider donating
