Richter&#8217;s idiom is thouroughly rooted in Baroque idiom and rhetoric , as is for example evident from the &#8216;Seufzer'(sigh) figure in the prelude. The prelude and fugue fit very well together. In the fugue Richter follows the overal layout of the prelude with long passages on Manual I alternated with short passages on manual II. And to emphasize the relationship even further Richter writes 8 bars of paralel thirds, the building block of the preludes, halfway the fugue. The more I play from Richter, the more strange it seems his music is not played far more often. The prelude has one spot (bars 23 and 24) where I&#8217;m not exactly sure how the musical text should read. The scribe is not consistent in his alterations and naturals across voices. In thos two bars I&#8217;m not sure whether a natural is meant or a flat. So. I played it twice, once with the a (Tholen) and one with the a flat (Groningen). For the score I decided on a flat. But you&#8217;re welcome to play a yourself. The first recording was done with the Hauptwerk software and the sample set, made by Voxus, of the Van Dam organ (1832) in Tholen (https:\/\/www.voxusorgans.com\/en\/product\/tholen). The second recording was done with the sampleset, made by Sonus Paradisi, of the Schittger organ in the St. Martini-kerk, Groningen. Score Richter, Preludium un d Fuge, Es dur Performance"}
