Organ & Pno [CD]

Jan von Busch and Johann Blanchard have compiled true highlights from the modest repertoire for the once so popular pairing of organ and piano. Recorded exclusively for MDG on the historic Waldner organ from 1874, the restored instrument harmonises perfectly with the magnificent Bechstein grand piano. The organ's small size creates the possibility of truly balanced music-making with the piano in respect of dynamics, allowing a natural reproduction of French concert halls and salons of the 19th century - a programme of rare value!
