Revered teacher, organ virtuoso, master of counterpoint, devotee of the chorale, enthusiast for the Italian forms, pathfinder and worthy predecessor of Bach: Johann Pachelbel is a composer ripe for re-evaluation, and Matthew Owens presents a selection of his works on the UK's only Ahrend organ, an instrument of exceptional refinement. The voicing is direct and clear yet full of subtleties, and is heard to best effect in this completely satisfying union of instrument, repertoire and performer.
