Our Take

HANS - OTTO JACOB's latest installment in the Great European Organs series takes us on a sonic journey to the majestic Frankfurt Imperial Cathedral. As we enter the hallowed halls of this historic edifice, we are greeted by the grandeur of the organ, a behemoth of pipes and keys that seem to stretch towards the heavens themselves.

The album opens with a thunderous crescendo, filling the space with an overwhelming sense of power and majesty. Jacob's deft touch on the keys is evident from the first notes, as he navigates the complex compositions with aplomb.

Tracks like "Cathedral Sonata in C Major" showcase Jacob's virtuosity, with intricate melodies weaving in and out of the rumbling bass notes. Each note seems to reverberate throughout the cathedral, creating a sense of awe and reverence that is truly breathtaking.

Throughout the album, Jacob explores a wide range of styles and moods, from the solemn beauty of "Ave Maria" to the jubilant exuberance of "Prelude and Fugue in G Major." His mastery of the instrument is truly on display, as he effortlessly navigates the challenging repertoire with grace and precision.

In the end, HANS - OTTO JACOB's Great European Organs No. 50: Frankfurt Imperial Cathedral is a triumph of organ music, showcasing both the beauty of the instrument and the skill of the performer. It is a must-listen for any music lover, whether you're a seasoned organ aficionado or a casual listener looking for something truly special. Get ready to be transported to a world of sound and wonder – you won't be disappointed.
