Title: Wish List for Organ Music in your Church
Review: 'The Organ Toccatas and Passacaglia' by Johan Sebastian Bach, recorded by Hyperion, is exactly the kind of recording Hyperion does so well, as it involves but a single artist, Christopher Herrick and a reasonably easy technical setup to capture the sounds from the Metzler organ of the Stadtkirche in Zofingen, Switzerland. These pieces are just a small part of the reason why a very good Jewish friend of mine has said that 'You Christians have all the best music'.One can listen to these and imagine they present a model for what, given the right organist and instrument, music can sound like in your church.As usual, for a few more pennies, you can't go wrong with Hyperion for single performer or small group performances.
