Rather than take up extra space, I decided to combine these three chorales into a "set".
The first chorale is the opening one in the collection, "Mein Jesu, der du mich", and this is to show the rich and smooth "German romantic" sound of one of "several" plenums available on the organ.
The second is the fifth in the collection, the lovely "Schmücke dich, o liebe Seele," which is played entirely on the Great 8 & 4 flutes.
The final one is the last in the collection, the second setting of "O Welt, ich muss dich lassen", which demonstrates the richness of the 8-foot sound. Granted, the dryness of the room "works" against it, but you could make romantic literature work on this Rieger if you give a little effort and heart to your playing.
The time slots are:
No. 1
0:00
No. 5
4:50
No. 11
7:30
I'm going to mention something highly personal, and I hope you won't mind me doing so.
I'm supposed to have knee replacement surgery on June 18th, but will having various pre-op tests, a significant mass was discovered on my left lung. I don't have mention what this could mean...
I had a cat scan today, and will know my results on Thursday. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.
Thanks to All in advance.
