¿Por qué «luz de las tinieblas? Walcha era ciego, y su conocimiento de la polifonía interior de las obras de Bach aparece casi en blanco y negro ». De hecho, a menudo encuentro que escuchar a Walcha me recuerda a un cristal de agua: perfecto, pero casi no existente... la polifonía es perfecta (toucher Walcha era único, y sus registros a menudo implican un sonido agudo - y por lo tanto se puede escuchar todo). Y se las arregla para que parezca no estar presente: la música es, no el intérprete. Por supuesto que no es cierto. Su forma de tocar es tan personal que usted encontrará todos los organistas  diferentes.

Fue sin duda el más importante - en términos de impacto - de todos los organistas bachianos... Como cuestión de hecho, su equipo de música grabaciones de Bach se presentan a menudo como el estándar. Por lo tanto, es inevitable comparar este mono conjunto con el más conocido.

Ahora no creo que Bach Walcha es muy Bachiáno - No creo que Bach tenga ese estilo en sus  composiciones. Sin embargo, la mayor parte de su forma de tocar es muy impresionante (Ha tocado todos los órganos más importantes y las obras clave de Bach) y  se ve en una de las mentes musicales más potente de la historia (Bach) a través de una de las mentes más inteligentes de interpretación (Walcha). Algunos de los interpretattions Walcha ... son, creo, casi imposibles de mejorar.
