One has rarely heard a version so clearly structured, colourfully registered and intelligently performed to perfection.

In the last years of his life, Johann Sebastian Bach was intensively engaged in a refined contrapuntal work, the "Art of the Fugue", though he refrained from specifying which instruments he wanted it played on.

The organist Samuel Kummer has now recorded his personal version of the monumental composition on the magnificent Hildebrandt organ in Naumburg.

Seldom has such a clearly structured, colourfully registered and intelligently concluded version been heard.
