Description:
This arrangement makes it a cinch for a single performer to play both Gounod's melody and Bach's harmony, essentially as the composers wrote them. The only thing missing is the sixteenth-note figuration of the original Bach prelude -- and in the arranger's opinion, the absence of that feature actually makes for the best possible organ rendition of this much-loved music.
