Intriguing Organ WorksI'm an organ music fan, which I attribute to my mother, who is an organist. Paul Hindemith wrote these three intriguing sonatas for organ, which range from soft & soothing to loud & heavy. It's unfortunate they're not so widely known. Hurford performs them masterfully. I tracked down the sheet music for Sonata I, and my mom ended up playing it in a concert. Highly recommended. The additional material fills out the album nicely.
Music ok, hardware not very nicely done.This is a review of the vendor, not of the music itself, which is amazing! About the vendor: the Recording itself is ok, the CD itself seems to be homemade, the booklet was not included (I really would have liked it). There was one small glitch in one of the pieces, thankfully not in the piece I was most concerned with when I bought the CD. I got the music I wanted, so I am happy about that, but the CD is not exactly a gem in my collection.
