St. Rupert’s Catholic Parish Church in Munich is home to one of the few surviving Maerz organs. The recent restoration of this marvellous late-romantic organ to its 1907 operating standards means that it can now be heard in its original splendour of sound.
The young organist Anne Horsch, performs the complete organ works of Brahms. His preludes and fugues and his eleven chorale preludes, which are often regarded as masterpieces in this genre, can be heard to perfection with the SACD quality.
