Simon - Praeludium & Fuge a-Moll / A minor - Klais organ, Lubin, Hauptwerk

Piotr Grabowski just released a new sample set of the Johannes Klais organ of Lubin in Poland. It's not the typical Klais organ, for sure, but a historically reconstructed one after the original Liebeherr organ of 1785. I recorded a prelude and fugue by Johann Caspar Simon. Simon (1701-1776) was a German composer, organist and teacher of the baroque period. He composed many pieces for keyboard instruments. I recorded a prelude and fugue in D minor of the collection of Leichte Praeludia und Fugen. Which roughly all follow the same pattern, a short and free prelude (often with a lot of scales) followed by a short fugue. The title of the collection says that the pieces can be played on organ, but also on the clavichord. If you like this video, make sure to subscribe to this channel.
