Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor, BWV 582 by J.S. Bach

Doug Marshall plays the new 5-manual Marshall & Ogletree organ (Opus 11) in Dreyfoos Hall at the Raymond F. Kravis Center for the Performing Arts in West Palm Beach, Florida, to celebrate this, our first major concert hall instrument. It seemed fitting for Doug, a student of Virgil Fox for 10 years, to honor his teacher, the concert hall setting and the organ by recording the same three works that Dr. Fox chose for his Command recording inaugurating the new Aeolian-Skinner organ at Lincoln Center, NYC. Doug began his studies with Virgil in 1965, just two years after that landmark recording was made, and studied all three of these pieces during the years he and Virgil worked together. The scores Doug used in these recordings contain Virgil’s hand-written notes and suggestions made during their lessons together. In addition, Doug recorded three shorter works showing the versatility of the Kravis instrument - two pieces by Robert Hebble, Virgil’s console assistant at the Riverside Church and the composer/editor of nearly all of Virgil’s organ arrangements; and a lush arrangement of the 1950's Gospel hymn “So Send I You,” by Harold DeCou. Perhaps only the Kravis Center organ and Cameron Carpenter’s International Touring Organ, its musical twin, are capable of rendering all of this music so spectacularly. The gracious and warm (but not especially reverberant) acoustics of the Kravis Center provide an ideal environment for the listener to be able to focus on the breathtaking sounds emanating from this instrument as well as the details of these six extraordinary performances by Doug Marshall. We hope you enjoy these pieces, played in the thrilling and colorful Romantic style which Virgil Fox made famous.
