B-A-C-H and Liszt — two challenges with their own individual dimensions. The Gewandhaus organist Michael Schönheit, having pledged himself to this Western musical alliance, now presents a fascinating portrait of the historically most significant instrument of the Bach-Liszt tradition. On this album the magnificent Ladegast organ in the Merseburg Cathedral is documented in sound for the first time since its extensive reconstruction.

Even today the magnificent baroque front of the organ from the year 1697 commands the Merseburg Cathedral. Towering up into the vault, it fills the space between the towers, while the loft with the choir organ projects forward on the side to the western nave pillars. One of the most impressive romantic instruments north of the Alps is housed behind the baroque front: 5,700 pipes and the old Stahlspiel, in its time one of Germany’s largest organs, built by Friedrich Ladegast (1818-1905).
