Pro Organo announces a new organ recording, Nordic Journey, Volume XV, Baltic Sojourn: Music from Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania (7309), featuring James D. Hicks performing on the organ of the Pauluskirche, Ulm, Germany.
The organ of four manuals and 86 speaking stops was originally built by Link in 1910 as Opus 535, renovated by the same builder in 1970 as Opus 900, renovated again and expanded by Mühleisen in 1997, and finally by Gaida in 2014.
The recording includes a multi-movement commissioned work for Estonian kannel and organ by Estonian composer Malle Maltis, for which Helsinki-based kannel specialist Hedi Viisma performs.
