I think it is incredible that one can get such a sorrowful sad sound from Organteq 2! As they say: "Everything in Organteq can be tweaked - from the composition of the organ to the sound of each pipe - making it possible to reproduce a wide variety of existing organs or to explore unknown musical lands".

I think people don't understand all the possibilities with Organteq 2 - there is so much more to experience than just playing a choral. BUT, you also have to use your imagination and have a huge hunger to research the possibilities...and have time, time...

In 1703, then 18-year-old Bach, was appointed organist in Arnstadt. There was an organ with two manuals and 21 stops. It was inspected in June 1703 by Johann Sebastian Bach.
Here I am using a physically modelled Historical organ, Two-manual ll Arnstadt 1703. The music is Ach Gott, erhör mein Seufzen, KWV 513  by J. L. Krebs. Bach’s pupil many years! A sadly sweet prelude and I tried to get a sad mournful registration.

The Bach organ in Arnstadt is still in use, two-manual and with tremulants as our Organteq Historical organ Arnstadt. It would be nice to play this Krebs prelude on that organ! And use a bit tremulant as i do.  Start from 0,50....

Dear Stig,
I don't know where this organ is, but if it's at the Bachkirche in Arnstadt, it's truly a magnificent instrument!
Played by the maestro—in fact, Bach was an organist here as a young man....
God, what a beautiful timbre. Truly magnificent.
Thank you for sharing.
Greetings from Italy.
