He got around to finishing only 46, but managed to hit the high spots of the church year, coming close to achieving his purpose, if only at a smaller scale. The finely etched miniatures of the <em>Orgelb\u00fcchlein <\/em>chorales in this recording are paired with choral settings by Bach and others to demonstrate the relationship of the organ pieces to their models in the Lutheran liturgy. Reverently performed by the Chorus of the Ged\u00e4chtniskirche, Stuttgart, \u00a0and led by Bach expert Helmuth Rilling, this 3-CD set is derived from a 4-LP Nonesuch set, originally recorded by Barenreiter.<\/p>\n<p>More to come &#8211; Cheers &#8211; Curt Timmons<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KHCD-2011-083-3CD (STEREO) &#8211; J.
