Bach's Toccata


Any suggestion for Bach's Toccata in vinyl?

Thanks

Assuming you mean the Toccata and Fugue in D-minor (the most popular one), my favorite LP is Marie-Claire Alain on Erato.

I like that one as well. If you want something, uh, different, you can look for the Virgil Fox D to D recording on Crystal Clear (I think it's called The Fox Touch). Fox used a lot of different tone colors in the organ on that piece that others don't dream of.
If you can find it, another Direct-to-Disk recording, with spectacular sonics, is "The Power and the Glory, Volume I," with Lloyd Holzgraf on the organ of the First Congregational Church of Los Angeles (M&K Realtime RT-114, from 1978).

I can't comment on the performance, though, because I only played the recording once, about 25 years ago. Played at a modest level, the deep bass that was present set the windows in the room into severe vibration, and caused paint chips to fall from the ceiling. :-)

No other recording has ever done that in my experience, not even the Telarc 1812 Overture.
