The Great Organ by Franz Schnitger of St.Laurenskerk in Alkmaar, The Netherlands
This was Deutsche Grammophon’s very first stereo recording, from 1955. When finally released in stereo in 1960, ‘The Art of Fugue’ won Helmut Walcha worldwide success. Now we are proud to release it here in 2007, the 100th anniversary of the organist’s birth. “One of the greatest inturpretures of the organ music of J S Bach with an intuitive grasp of the composers mind and intentions that never failed him” [ The Guardian ]

Helmut Walcha was born on this day in 1907
Born in Leipzig, Walcha was blinded at age 19 after vaccination for smallpox. Despite his disability, he entered the Leipzig Conservatory and became an assistant at the Thomaskirche to Günther Ramin, who was professor of organ at the conservatory and cantor at St. Thomas’. In 1929, Walcha accepted a position in Frankfurt am Main at the Friedenskirche and remained in Frankfurt for the rest of his life. From 1933 to 1938 he taught at the Hoch. In 1938 he was appointed professor of organ at the Musikhochschule in Frankfurt and organist of the Dreikönigskirche in 1946. He retired from public performance in 1981 and died in Frankfurt in 1991.
