WATCYN WATCYNS (Baritone)
ANTHONY PINI (Violoncello)
THE WIRELESS MTLITARY BAND
Conducted by B. WALTON O'DONNEL
MR. HOLST has chosen for this Military Band arrangement a very merry Fugue of the great Bach's which might have been more popular if it had been called a ' Gigue in Fugue form' rather than a ' Fugue in the style of a Gigue.' The tune shows us Bach in his most playful mood, and in this arrangement for Military Band its reappearances can be more easily followed than when the piece is played, as Bach intended, on the organ.
