BWV 538 - Toccata und Fuge in d-moll - Karl Richter 1/2

Karl Richter performs the Dorische Toccata und Fuge in d-moll on the Silbermann organ of St. Mary’s Cathedral in Freiberg, part one. These were the last and probably the best recordings he ever produced in his career. Herr Richter displays his excellence as usual but this time with more passion than ever before. Stretching the resources of the instrument to its limit. Karl Richter has a certain special touch with his interpretations that makes it so smooth and delicate but at the same time overwhelmingly powerful.
