Rhapsodies

Regrettably I think I used all of the good stuff last year, but I’ll try to find some material to keep the mood going.

So let’s start things off with Toccatta in Fugue in D Minor by Johann Sebastian Bach. I’m pretty sure Bach would not have approved of this being considered halloween music but it seems to be the first thing that comes to the mind of every raving madman or vampire as soon as they get access to a pipe organ, and it certainly sets the mood.

I was tempted to go with the Fantasia version but I figured that was a little too colorful for the the season. So here it is performed by Rolf Uusvaly from 1972 in Riga
