Praeludium in F Major, BuxWV 144 Click to Listen [2:43]
There are two distinct sections to this prelude, the first on the Hauptwerk uses parallel thirds, syncopations, and brief pedal punctuation; the second, on the Swell, has a natty fugue subject which appears in all four voices; the move back to the Hauptwerk is not structural, it just seemed right to round it off that way. Instrument: Richard Rensch Orgelbau, St. Michael Neckargartach (1993) - Samples by Gernot Wurst

Audio track was created with Hauptwerk v. 1 software
