Bei stiller Nacht (Passion 2) Uploaded by: Bartfloete Composer: Ahrens, Joseph Organ: Laurenskerk - Main Organ - 1973 Marcussen & Son Software: Hauptwerk IV Views: 404
Whenever I play on this sampleset, I always remember that Vincent Lubeck was the organist for more than twenty-five years in Stade on this magnificent instrument, until he moved to the St. Nicolai in Hamburg.
The somewhat dry acoustics of this church make (imho) for a very intimate approach to this piece by Johann Kuhnau.
The Stade sampleset may be getting on a bit, but it is still a landmark of sampling this magnificent instrument and lost none of it's beauty.
A very introvert piece by Kuhnau; this prelude.
Played on the 16' and 8' principal of the Hauptwerk.
