Johann Sebastian Bach - Toccata & Fuga in D Minor (BWV 565)

Johann Sebastian Bach - Toccata & Fuga in D Minor (BWV 565) Toccata and Fugue In D Minor BWV 565 (for solo violin). "The possibility that the Toccata and Fugue is a violin-to-organ transcription is supported by the fact that at least twice in his career, Bach is known to have transcribed solo violin works for organ. The Prelude first movement of the Partita in E major for solo violin, BWV 1006, was converted by Bach into the solo organ part of the opening movement of the Cantata BWV 29 "Wir danken dir, Gott, wir danken dir". Bach also transcribed the Fugue movement of his Sonata in G minor for solo violin BWV 1001 as organ music, namely as the second half of the Prelude and Fugue in D minor for organ, BWV 539." Peter Williams. "... The version presented here makes no claims of authenticity, although it is closely based on the dinamic and chordal possibilities of the baroque violin as Bach used it."
