New CD Track: Böhm “Vater unser im Himmelreich”

Thomas Dressler plays Georg Böhm’s ornamented setting of “Vater unser im Himmelreich,” a track from his new CD, “Thomas Dressler Plays the Paul Fritts Organ, Princeton Theological Seminary,” on which I did design work.

The Vater unser is an old Lutheran hymn tune setting of the Lord’s Prayer, played here on the beautifully expressive Swell Cornet and accompanied by the Great Principal 8′.

New CD: “Thomas Dressler Plays the Paul Fritts Organ, Princeton Theological Seminary”

Tuesday, March 20, I finished design work on a classical pipe organ CD by Pennsylvania organist friend Thomas Dressler. Called “Thomas Dressler Plays the Paul Fritts Organ, Princeton Theological Seminary,” the CD features German organ works by J.S. Bach, Böhm, Scheidt, C.P.E. Bach and others, ranging from the Renaissance to the Baroque period and beyond.
