Bach, J S - Great Fantasias, Preludes and Fugues (The) - Herrick, Christopher (organ)
GRAMOPHONE EDITOR’S CHOICE ‘Yet another yardstick release from what seems to be an unbeatable team … I suspect I have already found my record of the year’
(Gramophone)
‘As emotionally compelling as it is authoritative. The instrument is ideal for the repertoire and it is superbly recorded’
(Penguin Guide to Compact Discs)
‘Herrick’s musical inspiration, matched by his technique, does full justice to this pinnacle of the organ repertoire’
(BBC Music Magazine Top 1000 CDs)
