The
B.A.C.H. motif
has been known and used
for centuries, but
enjoyed a great revival
in the late 19th century
as composers paid homage
to the composer J.S.
Bach. It derives from the
German nomenclature, and
is expressed in standard
notation as
Bb-A-C-B.
The
Fantasia And
Fugue On
B.A.C.H. is one
of the most famous Organ
works of Franz
Liszt (1811-1886).
The piece was intended
for the inauguration of
the famous Ladegast Organ
at Merseburg Cathedral,
but sadly, it wasn't
finished in time.
Liszt then
revised the work in 1870
and produced the version
that survives today. A
well-loved piece, no
organist's library
iscomplete without it.
