You really need a good pair of speakers to make this sound truly out of this world!!!
YouTube - Toccata and Fugue - Bach
This version is out of this world played by Frederik Magle on The Walcker Organ in Riga Cathedral.
Pls check the link below, its got pics & lots of details about this fine Instrument....
One day I Wish to see it being played in person....

@Denom
Been listening to Bach for something like two decades.Have heard his organ music being played live in a church in Helsinki.Bach for me is God.With Mozart and Beethoven at His side.Ultimately all other genres of Western music and that includes Jazz which I listen to a lot:sad: are merely NOISE.I have just bought a pair of Vienna Acoustic Beethoven Baby Grand.In my very limited experience with good hi-fi equipment this is the first speaker with which I am finding my CD's of Bach,Mozart,Schubert,Beethoven,Mahler,Handel,Chopin sound absolutely stunning.Late night I usually play Bach's organ works fairly loud.My neighbors whose idea of music is probably a rousing satsang must be wondering whats going on....

Suri, yes you are right its not to everyones taste, but this piece is so very powerful, it makes the hairs on your neck stand!!! Imagine watching a live performance with the view of that spectacular organ! BTW, did your speakers cut it

Ajay,
Have been brought up listening to all kinds of music,
Somehow after watching the movie '20 thousand leagues under the sea' when i was about 12odd years old, Bach's Tocata had a profound effect on me & ever since have listened to many rendiitons of it but found Frederik Magle's attempt as the best, maybe more so due to the Riga Cathedral Organ used, which is a masterpiece.
That being said, Metal & its various genres are my main source of musical pleasure
