Two newly discovered organ works by the 18 year-old Bach were unveiled by the Leipzig Bach Archive on 17 November 2025 in a special presentation where the distinguished director and President of the Bach-Archiv Ton Koopman performed them before an invited audience.
LBS Artistic Director Margaret Steinitz was interviewed by ITV News at 10 about this.
