King of Kings: Bach Orchestral Transcriptions CD
Sir Andrew Davis was a talented keyboard player as a child and teenager. He spent four years at the University of Cambridge as organ scholar at King’s College, under Sir David Willcocks sparking a lifelong passion for the organ works of J.S. Bach. The BBC Philharmonic presents a collection of Davis's orchestral transcriptions these works for organ (including the Toccata and Fugue in D minor, the ‘Great’ Fantasia and Fugue, and the 'St. Anne' Prelude and Fugue), four of them recorded in November 2023. He died before the final recording sessions for the album could take place the following September, but Martyn Brabbins stepped in to complete the recording poject.
