Buxtehude Influence On Bach (again)

Recommended Posts

This d minor toccata features, towards the end, an ascending broken chord pedal passage which is answerd by block chords on the manuals (and this passage, incidentally, gives the impression of being in 3/4 despite the time signature being 4/4!). Is it possible that this passage might have inspired a similar pedal motif in the F major toccata (which of course is in triple time)?
