Pipedreams originated as a discrete series of fourteen broadcasts (offered January-April 1982), with content primarily derived from concerts recorded during the 1980 A.G.O. convention. These programs, produced at Minnesota Public Radio and distributed by American Public Radio (now PRI), were made possible in cooperation with National Public Radio. Funding came from the Corporation of Public Broadcasting, the Dayton Hudson Foundation, the Episcopal Choirmasters Handbook (John C. Grant), and Mr. & Mrs. Wesley C. Dudley (the Dudleys, thankfully, having continued as program underwriters through the entire history of Pipedreams).

Explanatory commentary is provided by Harvard University musicologist Christoph, a noted Bach scholar and author of a comprehensive Bach biography, Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician. The historically-focused tonal character of the 97-rank Fisk pipe organ (1979) is particularly well suited to this repertoire.
