Bach, the Way He Is Meant to Be!5
Helmut Walcha expresses the Bach I love! Straight ahead, with no needless gimmickery, Walcha leads you: observing the strictest contrapunctal discipline renders delightful textures and transcendent polyphonies. The beauty of these pieces makes me cry.

The recording space puts you in the organist's seat; together with Walcha's registrations, the results are the best I have heard, both performance-wise and recording-wise.

I am anxiously awaiting the CD release of Walcha's "The Well Tempered Clavier" on ARCHIV.

A real bargain at under $1005
It is hard to express in words what an incredible achievement this is. The immense feats of memory alone, demanding far greater efforts than sighted performers face, command our respect. So does the consistent quality of Walcha's playing.

Bach's almost mathematical absorbtion with fugue lies at the centre of his genius. He was an organist first and foremost, an organist all his life. Like Bach, Walcha is an obsessive controller who uses music to shape his world. He treats each piece as a treasure to be cherished and burnished, and this makes him the greatest Bach organist since Schweitzer. We are told that Bach would travel miles to hear great organists perform, and Helmut Walcha is just such an organist as those.

The magnificent instrument used here is celestial in tone. To those for whom Bach fugues conjure up images of Christopher Lee playing Dracula, or dull Sundays in church, here is one of the great achievements of Western civilization, a glittering pinnacle of Baroque art, performed by a great modern spirit, in one handy box. You can't have Michaelangelo ceilings in your home, or Bernini bronzes in your living room, but by golly, you can put this on your stereo.
