“This organ in the Freiberger Dom is seen as Gottfried Silbermann's masterpiece. It was the first organ which he built entirely by himself, and it was to become famous.” Organist Leo van Doeselaar talks about the Gottfried Silbermann organ (1711-1714) in the Freiberger Dom Sankt Marien in Freiberg, on which he played during recordings for All of Bach.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on September 15th 2020 at Freiberger Dom Sankt Marien, Freiberg, Germany. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

The pure enthusiasm and love for Bach and organ history displayed in Doeselaars expressions could keep me entertained for hours! Truly one of the greatest Baroque organists of our time. You have done it once again Netherlands Bach Society! Please never stop producing this incredible work.

Mr Doeselaar, thank you very much for this video, which I found very interesting. Your enthusiasm and knowledge for Bach are obvious, but so seldom does one hear an expert such as yourself explaining so clearly and concisely the finer points of the instruments on which you play. I would ask you to consider producing more of this style video to accompany the great performances you have already published here with The Netherlands Bach Society .

Just a few weeks ago on PIPE DREAMS Michael Barone featured the Silbermann organs and now we get this beautiful music and insight from a master artist. This was so delightful. Many thanks to all!

I want to write just my deepest and most sincered thanks. It is for me real joy, to have this opportunity, to listen listen to real personalities and a master like Mr. Leo van Doeselaar. I wish more people would listen and understand this, instead of the ubiquitous cries of stupidity in the todays world. Perhaps one day I will be lucky enough to visit the Netherlands and hear live concerts with Leo van Doeselaar, Ton Koopman, Sietze de Vries and other great organists I admire.

@timothytikker3834 2 жыл бұрын

While this organ indeed has an 8' Viola da Gamba register, Silbermann actually made this of the same construction (tapered) and scale as his 4' Spitzflöte. It's as if his French-based training from his uncle Andreas wouldn't accommodate building a true string voice, but he could fool his Central German customers into thinking they had a string voice in his Spitzflöte, so long as it was at 8' pitch! As to Silbermann's mixtures being too "soft," I believe that this in no way described the power level of the pipes -- which is certainly quite strong -- but instead pertains to how these mixtures were lower in pitch than was the norm in most other German organs, whence a less "penetrating" effect.

I deeply feel in love with this organ upon hearing a beautiful vinyl-LP played on it by Karl Richter with the Dorian Toccata and Fugue, the Partite diverse sopra "Sei gegrüßet, Jesu gütig" and the Passacaglia: I cannot help believing that at that time, the organ sounded more original, mellow and less sharp than here ... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZiBlJNi2ae3o2g.html ... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hMhzYLWXuc_JoZs.html ... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iKihgZCqtsrSpWg.html ... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ab1xhLx-yK67fn0.html ...

Here is a link to hear Marie-Claire Alain playing music of J.S. Bach on the Freiburg organ (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/breibLeGz7S6qJ8.html). As many probably know, Alain released _3 sets of acclaimed recordings of organ music by Bach, a feat not likely to be equaled!_ When asked why anyone would undertake this Herculean task again and again, Alain said that more and more historically important organs were made available to musicians over time, including those behind the Iron Curtain. It’s so wonderful to hear the way other organists interpret Bach’s music here on KZfaq, and I’m so grateful to The Netherlands Bach Society for this enormous undertaking!

I believe Bach thought very highly of him, since not only Altnikol helped him finish "The Art of Fugue" at a time when Bach gradually lost his eyesight and could no longer finish his composition in writing but also Bach recommended him to become the first titular organist of the amazing Hildebrandt-organ in the Church of St. Wenceslas in Naumburg ... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zqdyi7Fh393GaYk.html
