Description
Klaus Beckmann's "North-German Chorale Settings of the Baroque Era" is a truly impressive document of organ music. Far from dynamic musical centers like Hamburg and Luebeck, which Beckmann has already presented in numerous editions, organ music also flourished in other Northern cities such as Lueneburg, Kiel, Copenhagen and Danzig in the 17th century. These 17 chorale settings convey a vivid picture of the forcefulness and originality of Baroque organ music in the Hanseatic cities.
Some of the chorale settings are published for the first time in this edition.
