James Kibbie Revisit

Lots of progress being made recording the organ music of Bach.

It has been a long time since I have visited James Kibbie. He continues the process of recording the Bach Organ Works on original 18th-century German organs by Silbermann, Hildebrandt, Trost, and others. His website states that the work will be completed this year.

Happily, the Schubler chorales have been added.

Here is the link to BWV 649, in AAC format. This is a large file and takes a while to load. Be patient.

Also, the Eighteen Leipzig organ chorales have been added.

Here is a very nice short article by one of Kibbie's students about the Leipzig chorales.
