The Sound of History (I) #8604 (Encore of #8306)
…German organist and historian Harald Vogel introduces us to some of the best-preserved antique organs of northern Germany and Holland.
Instruments in the towns of Groningen, Rysum, Oosthuizen, Steinkirchen, Stade and Buttforde are heard in music by Attaignant, Praetorius, Weckmann, Scheidt, Bruhns, Lubeck and J. S. Bach.
Harald Vogel is director of the North German Organ Academy, a recognized authority on “authentic” historic keyboard performance techniques, and increasingly well-known in America for his seminars and recitals.
