Johann Adam Reincken (1643-1733) was, along with Dietrich Buxtehude, one of the largest influences on the organ works of J.S. Bach. When Reincken heard the young Bach improvising, he said “I though that this art was dead, but I see it lives on in you“. Reincken´s effervescent Fugue in g minor is an example of the style that Bach deeply admired.
