Leipzig Bach Archive Presents Newly Discovered Organ Works By Johann Sebastian Bach Leave a reply Leipzig-based Bach researcher Peter Wollny identifies two organ compositions as the work of the 18-year-old Johann Sebastian Bach · First performance in 320 years to be livestreamed from St Thomas’ Church, Leipzig  LEIPZIG, GERMANY – Newsaktuell – 17 November 2025 – As of 17 November, the index of Bach’s works (BWV) is richer by two numbers: Leipzig Bach Archive director Peter Wollny has succeeded in identifying two previously anonymous organ works as composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. In a livestreamed official ceremony in the presence of the Minister of State for Culture, Wolfram Weimer, and the Mayor of Leipzig, Burkhard Jung, the city of Leipzig together with the worldwide Bach community celebrates the first performance of these works in 320 years in St Thomas’ Church in Leipzig. Leipzig-based Bach researcher and Bach Archive director Peter Wollny has been familiar with the two works that have just been identified as Bach’s, the Ciacona in D minor, BWV 1178, and the Ciacona in G minor, BWV 1179, for more than 30 years. He found them in the Royal Library of Belgium. During the course of his research career, the musicologist collected numerous clues which now, with the final piece of the puzzle – the naming of the scribe – form a complete picture. This identification took place in the context of work on the BACH Research Portal, a research project by the Saxon Academy of Sciences and Humanities in Leipzig, in which for the first time all the available archive resources about the entire Bach family of musicians are being opened up and made publicly available in digital form. Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Peter Wollny: »I spent a long time searching for the missing piece of

WeRide has been operating Robotaxis with TXAI in Abu Dhabi since 2021.
