Our Take

Ah, the sweet, soul-stirring sounds of the organ. Is there anything more majestic, more grandiose, more utterly bombastic? Well, perhaps not, but Gerald Woehl certainly gives it a damn good try on his latest release, "Bach Organ of Thomaskirche / Leipzig."

Gillian Weir, the master behind Organ Master Series Volume 4, proves once again why she's at the top of her game. With fingers flying across the keys like a virtuoso possessed, Weir takes us on a musical journey through the hallowed halls of the Thomaskirche, breathing new life into Bach's timeless compositions.

From the solemn tones of the opening track to the frenetic energy of the finale, Weir's performance is nothing short of electrifying. Each note is a revelation, each chord a masterpiece in its own right. It's as if Bach himself has risen from the dead and taken up residence in Weir's nimble fingers.

But it's not just Weir's technical prowess that shines through on this album. The real star here is Woehl's magnificent organ, a beast of an instrument that rumbles and roars with a thunderous power that is impossible to ignore. It's a marriage made in musical heaven, with Weir and Woehl pushing each other to ever greater heights of sonic ecstasy.

So, don your finest powdered wig, grab a glass of fine brandy, and settle in for a truly unforgettable listening experience. "Bach Organ of Thomaskirche / Leipzig" is a triumph of talent, technique, and sheer musicality. You won't want to miss it.
