In this recording, Gunther Rost brings the organ, usually associated with a forceful sound, complex polyphony and musical weight, into other spheres: he performs some of J S Bach’s organ transcriptions of Vivaldi’s instrumental concertos as well as his own transcriptions. He performs on an organ which is highly authentic for interpreting Bach’s works, the Hildebrandt organ in St. Wenzel’s in Naumberg.
