Ullrich Böhme presents a captivating exploration of sacred music with his album "Die Sauer-Orgel der Thomaskirche zu Leipzig." Released on March 20, 2009, under Rondeau Production, this album showcases Böhme's mastery of the organ, featuring a diverse collection of compositions that span various styles and periods.
The album opens with the intricate and profound "Fantasie und Fuge D-Moll, Op. 135b" by Max Reger, demonstrating Böhme's technical prowess and interpretive depth. The program continues with a mix of religious and secular works, including the solemn "Marche religieuse" and the delicate "Menuet," as well as the dramatic "Toccata." Böhme's rendition of Bach's "Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen" from Cantata BWV 12 is a highlight, showcasing his ability to bring fresh perspective to well-known works.
A significant portion of the album is dedicated to Charles-Marie Widor's "Variations sur un Noël, Op. 20," a series of ten variations that display Böhme's virtuosity and musical sensitivity. The album concludes with the powerful and exhilarating final variation, leaving a lasting impression.
Recorded on the historic Sauer organ of Leipzig's Thomaskirche, this album offers a rich and immersive listening experience. Böhme's nuanced performances and the organ's resonant acoustics create a compelling atmosphere that highlights the beauty and complexity of the music.
