Excellent acoustics abound and the technical quality is first-rate.
Includes the 1902 Sauer organ in the Thomaskirche. OHS imports this first CD of the organ since restoration was completed in 1998. Organist Felix Freidrich and trumpeter Mathias Schmutzler play wonderfully. Felix Friedrich's superlative readings recorded with astonishing quality on these magnificent organs known to Krebs and Bach. III Organist Carl Staplin exploits the grand sound of the 3-35 Dobson tracker built in 1993 at Faith Lutheran Church, Des Moines, Iowa.
