- Trio Sonata No. 2, BWV 526
[10:41]
The Vivace [GT Gedackt 8' + 4 Flute; SW Rohrflute 8' + Principal 2'; CH Gemshorn 8'; PD Rohr Gedackt 16' + CH-PD 8 Coupler]
starts with the two hands playing parallel thirds, followed by a scintillating dialogue, and coming together in thirds again to modulate to a
different key. Interesting new ideas abound, and much use is made of trills and held notes. A single measure in the pedal transitions smoothly to an
abbreviated form of the beginning. In the Largo [GT CH-GT 8';
SW 8 Gambe + 8 Gambe Celeste + Tremulant;
CH Gemshorn 8' +Erzahler 8' + Unda Maris 8' + Tremulant;
PD 16 Rohr Gedackt + 8 Nachthorn] long held notes in one hand intertwine with an expressive lyrical motive, underpinned by a prodding bass line. The
Allegro [GT Flute Harmonique; 8' + Octave 4' + Larigot 1 1/3';
SW Rohrflute + Octave 4' + Principal 2' + Scharff IV;
PD 16 Bourdon + 8 Octave] has two main themes, the first bold and forthright, the second angular, almost brash, which provide contrasting sections but
are not used together. Trills and held notes figure in this last movement as well. Impulse reverberation added, Brad Lehman temperament, +2dB output.
