Episode 171 – Johann Sebastian Bach Vol. XIII, Part 2

We continue with last week’s episode by paying the second disc in a random grab out of our collection of historic LPs for another episode of Brent’s Scratchy records. Again it’s from a multi-volume set of the works of Bach performed by Marie-Claire Alain, this time on the 1963 Marcussen organ of St. Peter’s Cathedral in Schleswig, Germany and the 1957 Marcussen organ of the Church of St. Nicolai in Åbenrå, Denmark.
