This is a live performance from the Notre Dame concert of the great maestro Richter in his later years. The music is of course full of Bach's masterpieces, and the program is heavy with the wedge fugue, passacaglia, and gross fugue. The performance is also wonderful, and it's a grand performance that makes you want to shout, "This is Richter!" It's a rich performance with an overwhelming sense of tension and strong construction, and even a romantic excitement. The closing chord, which is full of conviction and continues endlessly, will make your heart tremble. It's rare to see people performing like this these days, but everyone will definitely think that this is Bach's music. The audience's reaction was enthusiastic, and the encore, with thunderous applause, was intense. ★ [Notre Dame Cathedral's great organ was first installed in the 13th century. ...Further renovations were made in the 20th century, turning it into one of the world's most magnificent instruments, with 109 stops and approximately 8,000 pipes. ...In 2013, the 850th anniversary of the start of construction on the cathedral, the performance stand was refurbished and the pipes were cleaned, restoring the original clear sound. However, just as this was happening, a large-scale fire broke out at the cathedral on April 15, 2019. At one point it was reported that the great organ had also burned down, but 10 days after the accident it was discovered that it had miraculously survived. It has now been dismantled and transported to another location, where maintenance work is currently underway.] (From Teranishi Hajime's commentary) Shipping We will ship it within 5 business days.
