ok so another video of this wonderful piece - im not an organist (string player here) but the technique is rather good and the articulation of the voices comes across very well imho

Richard McVeigh - JS Bach’s (1685-1750) Toccata and Fugue in F major BWV 540 played on the 4-manual Harrison and Harrison organ of Cirencester Parish Church, UK.

I’ve noticed McVeigh playing in socks a lot recently… I couldn’t do it myself. But anyway, the Toccata in F never disappoints… I REALLY like McVeigh’s performance of the 532… he absolutely gets the score like no one I’ve heard since my old organ teacher pointed out a few things in it to me…
