The Christoph Treutmann organ of Grauhof, Germany was built in 1737 and today survives in close to its original state, making it one of the most important instruments in northern Europe. The recording complements the earlier performances on instruments in Norway and Netherlands providing further palette of sound to these masterpieces.
