J. Pachelbel, Ciacona in F Minor | Wim Winters, Historical 1808 Van Peteghem Organ, Buizingen (B)

In this little village Buizingen, near Brussels, Belgium, you will find this little organ standing in the choir of the Sint-Vincentius church. This one manual organ has been built in 1808 by Van Peteghem and brought back to life in 2019 by the Dutch organ builder Verschueren. Your servant acted here as consultant for this restoration.

Pachelbel (1653-1706) might seem to be a little bit too early for an instrument built in 1808. Partly that's true of course though the Van Peteghems (which worked for generations) were rather conservative in the way they built organs. And so, what you hear in this recording could very well be built half a century earlier. And more importantly, this music simply sounds fantastic here.
It was a pleasure to work with that cold winter-day (12°C in the church!) with:
*Johan Zoutendijk, director of Verschueren Orgelbouw
*Hans van der Gouwe, VDGRecords and partner
*Hubert Sergeant, member of the church council Sint-Vincentius and a fighter for this organ since many many years.
