Organ Works - Influences Of Böhm And Buxtehude

Later, when Johann Sebastian Bach was a choir boy at St. Michael´s School in Lüneburg, he will certainly have been strongly influenced by Georg Böhm, the organist at the towns Church of St. John, and Bach at the same time made frequent trips to Hamburg, where he could hear Johann Adam Reincken. In 1705 finally, Bach made his pilgrimage to the Church of St. Mary in Lübeck to see Dietrich Buxtehude, who towered above all other organists of his day, and with whom Bach spent quiet some time studying the masters works. Accordingly, Bach´s early works for organ clearly show the influence of Dietrich Buxtehude both in the free works as well as those wedded to a chorale, and that of Georg Böhm, especially in the chorale partitas. Some of these early compositions are also heard on this CD.
