Program notes

Discover the extraordinary instruments of organ builder Arp Schnitger, father of the German Baroque organ. His beautiful instruments were both visually stunning and a pleasure to hear, earning him visits from the most illustrious musicians at the time: Dietrich Buxtehude, Georg Friedrich Handel, and even Johann Sebastian Bach! This film invites you on a musical journey to Hamburg, Groeninghe, and Norden, where you will have a chance to see and hear these legendary instruments first-hand.

In this documentary filmed by renowned director Ute Feudel, organist Masaaki Suzuki, popular for his renditions of Bach, sits ready at the keys.
