Thanks a lot for all the comments and votes in the last week's contest! This time I'd like to present a more vivid piece - F-Major prelude BWV 556 by J.S. Bach/ J.L. Krebs (still only the prelude, I'll try to work on the fugues in the future :D)
Just like last week, I play the sample set of Straßburg Organ (free set by Piotr Grabowski (https://piotrgrabowski.pl/strassburg/), which became my favourite for the baroque pieces :D
The registration is rather ordinary - 8' prinzipal chorus in both HW, POS and Pedal (to which I added Pausan 16'.
As you suggested I mixed the video with the audio track that comes directly from Hauptwerk - I hope it sounds better now (please notice the organ's motor sound in the background - it's added by the sample set's creator).
I did my best to master this piece, though there are some flaws that I am aware of - like the articulation or the tempo.
I hope you'll enjoy this entry and I'm looking forward to your feedback!
Lovely! The camera quality is excellent and the audio is much better. A tip: wait until the sound has fully decayed before ending your vide. I like your articulation very much. When I first started the contests here, I played through all the 8 short preludes and fugues! Just watch that your tempo is consistent throughout, other than that it is a good performance.
Flashback from week 9:
Hi! It's great to hear that you enjoy my interpretation. Standing at the very beginning of my organ journey it is great to learn from experienced organists - thank you very much for all the suggestions, I really appreciate them :)
Your rendition of the prelude was flawless :D I'll treat it as a goal for my future performances ;)

Powerful registration. I usually play it with a far lighter choice of stops. But I have to say this works pretty well as well.
Thanks for your entry!
