Praeludium et Fuga in C, Br I:01 Click to Listen, [8:46] (a=420 Hz)
The prelude starts with virtuosic manual flourishes followed by a long pedal solo, then a long series of modulations with a few Krebsian quirks to let you know it's not Bach or Buxtehude. The fugue in 12/8 meter is based on a 3-measure dance-like motiv with a characteristic trill. Registration changes in the Fugue principally address the Pedal, but manual contrasts are fully utilized to showcase the subject. Instrument: Bosch-Schnitger Organ, Vollenhove/Overijssel (1686/1720) - Samples by Prof. Helmut Maier

Audio track was created with Hauptwerk v. 2 Samples using v. 3 software
