opis

Josef Rheinberger (1839-1901) was a German romantic composer of mainly works for the organ, his own instrument. He was one of the leading figures in the “Cecilian Movement” which, in a world of increasing secularization, propagated the return to religious values of the past, expressing itself in a renewed interest in Gothic architecture and polyphony.

Rheinberger’s organ works are a happy blend of the Romantic spirit of his time and a healthy dose of polyphony and counterpoint, in this he was a worthy successor of Felix Mendelssohn.

This new recording presents the complete 20 Organ Sonatas by Rheinberger, offering highly attractive works characterized by classical formalism and romantic expression.

Played by Christian von Blohn at the organ of the Josefskirche St. Ingbert, Germany, originally built in 1894, the technical details of which are presented in the booklet.
