Toccata by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck on organ
- 14 jaar geleden
Monumenta Musica Neerlandica
No. 22 in the Opera Omnia (vereniging voor Nederlandse Muziekgeschiedenis)
On the Müller oosterwijtwerd (Hauptwerk):
Christian Müller (1690-1769) likely came to Holland in the wake of Arp Schnitger to try his luck here. He probably came from Westfalen. He settled in Amsterdam where he garnered great fame as an organ builder. He played an important role in the renewal of organs in Holland.
Probably Christian Müller built this cabinet organ, a little sister to the ones in the famous Great Church in Leeuwarden and the St.Bavokerk in Haarlem, as a house organ for the owners of one of a Groninger fortified castlehouse. How long the organ served as houseorgan is not known.
