The Bach Organ of Störmthal: Organ Works of Johann Sebastian Bach
William Porter, organist
In preparation for our historical recreation of a Bach-style organ for our Great Hall, ConstellationCenter is conducting extensive studies of the organs built by the great 18th-century organ builder, Zacharias Hildebrandt.
We found that the Hildebrandt organ at Störmthal has an especially beautiful quality of tone. Its exceptional qualities inspired us to make this recording, awarded a five-star rating by Choir and Organ magazine, with world-renowned organist William Porter.
