Edited 6 months agoNot only orchestras such as the Berlin Philharmonic, but also the organ of this church (built in 1970 by Emil Hammer, Hannover) harmonises perfectly with its famous acoustics, as can be heard for example on the complete recordings of Franz Schmidt's organ works (Franz Schmidt, Andreas Juffinger - Franz Schmidt Orgelwerke, rec. 1988): Late Romantic organ music, which nevertheless comes across with great clarity in all its nuances (both intimate and powerful) without being drowned in large-scale reverberation. Other examples are:
● Kurt Rapf - Die Orgel - Königin Der Instrumente (Orgelmusik Der Romantik) (1980)
● Josef Rheinberger, Andreas Juffinger, Radio-Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, Hartmut Haenchen - Die Orgelkonzerte (1989/90)
It's a pity that not many more recordings have been made on this organ. Hopefully this will change after its renovation planned for 2025/26!
