I liked how this somber yet spirited music surprised me with its delicacy.

I wonder that BWV 582 hasn't been posted here before in the organ version. It was chosen in a more subdued performance for the funeral of queen-mother Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon in 2002. The harpsichord can hardly do it justice, although Biggs gives it a good effort.
