What Was the Only Non-British Music at the Queen’s Funeral?

from WTF Bach · host Evan Shinners

It was brought to my attention that, yesterday, at the State Funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, there was only one non-Biritsh piece of music included. It was of course penned by our beloved J.S. Bach, whose inclusion in the royal festivities made an impression on me.The piece was this gorgeous fantasy for organ BWV 562, discussed in this episode. Enjoy!The unfinished harpsichord fugue discussed by me Marie-Claire Alain's performance of BWV 562Martin Lücker's performance of BWV 562 I know I said this last time but for real this time:NEXT EPISODE IS LISTENER'S CHOICE- SEND ME YOUR SUGGESTIONS Thank you to each of you who donate to these episodes:https://www.patreon.com/wtfbachhttps://www.paypal.me/wtfbachhttps://venmo.com/wtfbachhttps://cash.app/$wtfbach Get full access to W.T.F.
