Topic: OT2: Arp-Schnitger St.Gertrud (Hamburg 1699): Krieger: Praeludium g

Johann Krieger (1651-1735) was an important German composer and organist of the Baroque period, known for his mastery of counterpoint and his work in Zittau. Johann Krieger was considered a very good keyboard player and contrapuntist of his time. His works were highly regarded by Johann Sebastian Bach.

The Praeludium in g-minor comes from his famous collection ‘Anmuthige Clavier-Übung’ (Nuremberg, 1698/1699).

We released this recording several years ago. We have now created a new mix of the old recording using Organteq 2.

A truly beautiful piece, Unruh!!!
Although it's short, it's very dense and interesting.
