Els Biesemans plays Baroque music on the 1698 Schnitger organ in Dedesdorf

Heerlijk!

Very beautiful "colours"! The smallest Schnitger organ originally with no stops in the Pedal is a remarkable treasure; even the further additions didn't affect its aesthetics. Part of your repertoire was unknown to me and the whole program is a extremely fine result, a great tribute to the German baroque organ music. Where can I find the complete score of Weckmann's work; usually I only find the 1st versus? Greetings from Brazil.

Nice inspiration for painting the house this morning ;-)

Edited! Several good organ music broadcasts recently that I'm planning on recording - also the recent Jean Rondeau playing Froberger/L. Couperin on France Musique.

​@@joannescouchet7038 OK, some Northern German School is always nice! I enjoyed the program a lot, especially the Scheidt-variations. I know Rondeau is some sort of a hype, but I don't like his attitude and repertoire but of course it is all technically very skilful. I once heard him in Brugge playing a kind of "Best of ..." repertoire, but he was playing so incredibly fast, that I had difficulty to recognize the tunes. In that case you are only doing yourself a favour. Kind of a solo-ego-trip. Maybe it is only the youth because I always thought Christophe Rousset played (too) fast, until I heard him play in August 2018 in Utrecht in a program with only pièces of François Couperin, which was really perfect in my perception.

@@HarpsichordVinylGallery I agree with you, Rondeau is a hype. I got to hear him in 2018, playing Rameau and Bach. At his best, he is spellbinding, but his style can also be superficial ('play as fast as you can' trope) and tiring at times - also made more mistakes than expected of a harpsichordist of his reputation. But I still like to record interesting broadcasts and sharing them here. :)

@@HarpsichordVinylGallery Whoops, I accidentally deleted your comment after seeing it! I think you will enjoy this one though, he knows (for the most part) how dreamy the music of Froberger and Louis Couperin is and that it shouldn't be rushed.

@@joannescouchet7038 OK we will see. I had the Pinnock published unlisted since it still brings in revenues after two cd releases from the 1978 recording. Great recording it is and I never had it. It was a recent gift from a friend.

Hearing Palchelbel's Partitas (including the one in this performance) has made me re-think my attitude about organ works with no pedals or limited pedals.

[@joannescouchet7038]

I played a service on a small organ tuned entirely in meantone this morning, definitely a lot of beautiful music you can make despite of (or maybe due to) the restraints!

Where can I get the complete score of Weckmann's chorale cycle?
