Psalms from Geneva - Sweelinck: Organ Music / Masaaki Suzuki

Notes & Reviews:

"An abstruse title maybe, but Masaaki Suzuki flings himself into a programme of invigorating and interlocking toccatas and psalm-settings with the conviction - rightly - that Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck is one of the fathers of modern keyboard... Suzuki performs on the new Marc Garnier organ of Shinko-Kyokai in Kobe, an instrument of such irrevocable truth and balance of tone that each registration seems to reach into the heart of Sweelinck's beautifully directed lines (always coloured by the logic of vernacular phrasing) and rhythmic diversions." -Gramophone (Editor's Choice)

"... In this recording of Sweelinck's organ music, Masaaki Suzuki, the director of Bach Collegium Japan, shows his secure technique as an organist... Suzuki's performance style is never ostentatious, and his reflective manner is in keeping with restrained Calvinism." -1001 Classical Recordings
