Prelude & Fugue in F Major Click to Listen [3:2]
Lübeck was a contemporary of Bach although 31 years his senior (1654-1740). Lesser-known these days, he was supposedly one of the most prolific composers for organ but only a handful of his compositions have survived. While not as melodic or harmonically complex as Bach's, Lübeck's works have an energy all their own. Rendered in Silbermann tuning. Instrument: St. Anne's Church, Moseley, Birmingham, England (1874) - Samples by Martin Dyde
