About

Although Hindemith was not an organ music specialist, his three Sonatas, with their mastery of counterpoint, clarity of form, bold harmonic language and deeply expressive treatment of melody, are recognized as among the great works of modern organ literature. The Two Organ Pieces are Hindemith’s earliest works for the instrument, and the Interludien from his piano cycle Ludus Tonalis, here arranged for organ, form a sequence of beautiful and colourful fantasia-like character pieces.
