This recital offers a fine mix of Bach’s organ works, at larger and smaller scales, on the renowned historical instrument made by Alsatian organ builder Johann Andreas Silbermann of Strasbourg, a master of French baroque organ construction. It follows in a distinguished line of recordings of Bach made in the extraordinary acoustic of the Arlesheim Cathedral, by such luminaries as Walter Kraft, Karl Richter and Lionel Rogg.

Situated just outside the city of Basel, the village of Arlesheim grew up around its Cathedral, which was the church of the displaced cathedral chapter of the Diocese of Basel from 1679 to 1792. The first three years of this tenure saw the Bishop build not only the cathedral, but also a complete town centre with houses for the advisors and the administration of the See, using architect Franz Demess.

A total refurbishment and enlargement of the Cathedral was begun in 1759, culminating in the installation of the Silbermann organ two years later. The organ builder was included in the renovation’s planning from the start, such that modifications to the Cathedral’s architecture were made with a view to enhancing the nave’s musical acoustics. The instrument was restored by Metzler in 1959–62 and then again in 2005 by Gaston Kern. It is an example of the fusion of French and German organ building styles.
