Additional Information

Comments Published by Cavelight Music, BMI/AMRA

Recorded September 1976 at Ottobeuren Abbey, W.Germany

"These improvisations were recorded on the "Trinity Organ", the larger of the two Karl Joseph Riepp (1710–1775) organs at the Benedictine Abbey Ottobeuren.

No overdubs, technical ornamentations or additions were utilized, only the pure sound of the organ in the abbey is heard.
Many of the unique effects, although never before used, were accomplished by pulling certain stops part way, while others remain completely open or closed.

Amazingly, baroque organs have always had this capability."

Textured Gatefold cover

Original German LP issue with label rim text "Urheber- Und ...", not later "Alle Urheber- Und ..." as on later German LP versions.
33M next to GEMA on labels, not ST 33 as on later German LP versions.

Near identical to [r7475334] but with the jointed HR signature (hand etched) for [a465343] in the dead wax on every side.
