Live Recording: BWV 731 on the Schnitger organ of Groningen

Jan 13, 2025

On May 25, 2023 I was given the opportunity to play the fantastic Schnitger organ of the Martinikerk, Groningen (The Netherlands). I saw chance to make some recordings, although most were wasted because of the churchwarden who was busy with a vacuum cleaner almost all of the time.

(the small field recorder I used was stationed too far away for my taste, but it doesn't spoil the fun)

I asked permission to publish the few recordings I made, but one of the organists was against it. I was only allowed to use the video as 'hidden' on my channel.

Enjoy this post?
