JS Bach / Marie-Claire Alain, 1964: Wachet Auf, Ruft Uns Die Stimme, BWV 645

#Bach #JSBach #Baroque #ClassicalMusic

In this 1964 recording, French organist Marie-Claire Alain performs Wachet Auf, Ruft Uns Die Stimme, BWV 645, by JS Bach. Alain is playing the Great Marcussen organ of the Church of Varde in Denmark. I created this video from the LP shown above, issued in 1964 on the Musical Heritage Society label, serial number MHS 551. The Library of Congress online catalogue entry for this LP is available here: http://lccn.loc.gov/r65000282

So that there is no question in the mind of the listener, I rely principally on images of the LP and LP jacket in order to document the authenticity of historically important recordings such as these.
