Описание к видео Bach/Stokowski - Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor [Score]

Nikos Athenaos, Conductor
Frankfurt Brandenburg State Orchestra

Leopold Stokowski (1882-1977) was justly admired for his flair with Bach transcriptions, best known in the mighty Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565, as used in Walt Disney's Fantasia (1940). His first recording of that transcription, however, was made in 1927. Two years later he orchestrated the equally imposing Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor, BWV 582 - continuous variations of astonishing variety over a repeating bass line, with the main theme of the ensuing fugue based on the first half of that bass line.
