Whereas the previous work in the catalog was almost frenetic in its variety, this is almost quite repetitive, and divided into two discernible sections: the first alternates scaled passages with strong repeated chords and the second is a small fugue, which reiterates the repeated chords near the end. Instrument: Gottfried Silbermann Organ, Reinhardtsgrimma / Sachsen, Germany (1731) - Samples by Prof. Helmut Maier
