Bach Prelude in C BWV 547-1, Marilyn T. Oakes, Organist

The 9/8 Prelude in C is jaunty and so much fun to hear! The famous U. S. organist Joan Lippincott made it her signature piece during her recital career, so in her honor organists often dub the contrasting themes - "L i p p i n c o t t" and "Hello, my name is Joan." Bach scholar Peter Williams likens it to the Orgelbuchlein chorale "In dir ist freude" but other than the exposed pedal line, I don't much hear the resemblance. Organ is 1966 Flentrop 2/33 in its original configuration, St. Anne's Episcopal Church, Atlanta, Georgia, USA. I hope you enjoy! www.flentrop.n...
