About

A seminal figure in the development of North German organ music, Buxtehude spent the greater part of his long career in Lübeck, where he was visited by the young Handel and Bach, eager to hear his legendary performances.

This seventh volume of his organ music includes Praeludia, works that had a strong influence on the following generation of organ composers, compositions based on chorale melodies, and two sets of variations on dance melodies.

Brown is unquestionably a first-class artist and superb technician, but she also proves a serious Buxtehudian and an exceptionally sensitive stylist regarding the critical aspects of balancing voices and ensemble-building. The Martin Pasi Organ is a magnificent instrument, and the engineering does full justice to its solo and ensemble configurations. This is another fine addition to Naxos' Buxtehude series and a must for organ fans!” Classics Today on Vol. 5

Julia Brown is playing on the Martin Pasi Organ, Saint Cecilia Cathedral, Omaha, Nebraska.
