Extract
ONE of the most enterprising ventures in the gramophonerecord market of recent months has been the issue of several notable items from the German catalogue of Cantate, available through the firm of Novello, 160 Wardour St, W.i. These records provide authentic and often outstanding performances of organ and choral music ancient and modern.
Robert Kobler's account of some preludes on the chorale Da Jesus an dem Kreuze Stand by Samuel Scheidt (1587-1654.) is mainly for the specialist and is played on the eighteenth-century organ at Herford Minster. The sleeve-jacket accompanying the disc (T71880F) carries a specification of the instrument. This is music not usually included in the programmes of British players and, on this account alone, deserves consideration.
Heinz Wunderlich's persuasive account of Bach's D Minor Trio- Sonata (T71876F which, like the Kobler record, is a 45-r.p.m., 7-inch), will be greeted by all students and teachers.
