Gustav Leonhardt - North German Organ Music
Review by Jens Nähler
North German Organ Music by Gustav Leonhardt is a stunning album that showcases the beauty and complexity of Baroque organ music. The album features works by some of the most notable composers of the North German school, including Buxtehude, Bruhns, and Reincken.
Leonhardt's masterful interpretation of these works is evident in every track, as he skillfully navigates the intricate counterpoint and virtuosic flourishes of the music. His playing is both precise and expressive, capturing the full range of emotions and moods conveyed by each piece.
The album's standout tracks include Buxtehude's Toccata in F major, which showcases Leonhardt's technical prowess, and Bruhns' Praeludium in E minor, which highlights his ability to create a sense of drama and tension in his playing.
