5.0 out of 5 stars Sublime Bach April 12 2012
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
An old Mono late 40s early 50s recording of excellent quality. To get complete organ works for that price is phenomenal! Over 10 hours of sublime Bach music will take me ages to listen to. Hours of pure joy!

5.0 out of 5 stars EARLY WALCHA FOR THE ORGAN ENTHUSIAST May 12 2007
By L. E. Roberts - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is for Bach organ music lovers. It is the early recordings of Helmut Walcha, some made on the Arp Schnitger at Cappel before it was ruined by the introduction of steam heat in the 1950's, and the rest made on the organ in the St. Jakobi Church in Lubeck. It is a younger and more vigourous Walcha than the later recordings from St Laurenskerk in Alkmaar and the Silbermann in Strasburg. It also contains BWV 802-805 (four duets for harpsichord, although it does not contain Die Kunst der Fuge, as the later Archiv album does. It was a pleasure to see it back in print after all these years of playing elderly mono LP's, and the ten CD's are a steal for under $20.00.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bach's old golden recordings Oct 30 2007
By JJ van der Walt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
I was very pleased to hear all the old recordings from Bach's organ works made by Helmut Walcha that I grew up with. Unfortunately BWV 539 was not included in this re-edition, which is actually very unfortunate because I specifically remembered this recording of Walcha of BWV 539 from the old mono LPs. Walcha played it fresh, speedy and excellent. I just hope that whoever has taken up this wonderful effort in producing this edition will make a re-edition in the future and include BWV 539. A word of advise for the super-critical hifi quality listeners, just adjust your treble equaliser a little lower to decrease a bit of distortion in the upper frequencies. The old mono recordings struggled sometimes to obtain the high demand of high frequencies without making too much destortion. This is however no reason not to get yourself the old historical recordings. A final word, if you are a Walcha fan, this is a must to have.
