SACD Hybrid Recording

Also includes 3 organ works ascribed to the son: Vincent Luebeck (1684-1755)

At the age of twenty Vincent the Elder became the organist at the Church of Sts. Cosmas and Damian and beginning in 1690 he also served as titular organist at the Swedish St. Mary's Church in Stade. He enjoyed great esteem as a composer and organ-building expert and was appointed organist at the Church of St. Nicholas in Hamburg in 1702. After his death his son, also named Vincent, became his successor.

The present recording brings together the complete extant organ works of father and son, with most of them going back to before 1710. The concertante passages, catchy melodies, and often clear harmonies reflect a turning to the 'galant' style.

It is with a sound marked by gravity and fundamental tones that Friedhelm Flamme interprets these works on the Treutmann organ, the only extant organ by Christoph Treutmann and thus one of the most important instruments from the first half of the eighteenth century.
