Everything cried out to be cleaned, restored and, if possible, exhibited. I expressed this enthusiastically and pointed out that the instruments could also be stored more properly.<\/p>\n

One of the senior museum staff remarked piqued: “What we do with our property is our business.” “Your property,” I shouted. “You are paid to manage public cultural property! Your property? With that attitude, you can burn the junk right away!”<\/p>\n

The row produced a strong echo. Shortly afterwards management changed and bit by bit the instruments were taken out of the sink hole. The best were exhibited, the museum started i its own concert series and at some point I suggested to present individual instruments on CD.<\/p>\n

“Musical Instruments of the Ferdinandeum No. 1” is the name of our CD, which we made in cooperation with ORF. In the meantime, the museum has produced more than a hundred CDs. The shop in the foyer is overflowing with them. I don’t know whether you can still buy the No. 1. You can try it at http:\/\/shop.tiroler-landesmuseen.at\/cd-dvd.html<\/a><\/p>\n

Or directly in the shop of the museum.<\/p>\n

The works are beautiful and completely different: the two unstyled, crazy, early baroque works by Fontana and Castello; contrasted by a sensitive and varied piece by Frescobaldi; the highly cultivated Corelli and then Bach, again and again Bach.<\/p>\n

The first take on the CD has its own story. This movement is a Siciliano, and as is often the case with Bach, it has a lamenting character – just think of the famous “Erbarme dich” aria from the St. Matthew Passion. When the recording was finished, my harpsichord partner Kurt Estermann<\/a>, who is also a distinguished composer, noticed that it could be played quite differently: unhistorically, in the “wrong” tempo, alienated, almost frozen. It had already been music quoted in Bach’s time. We tried it out spontaneously, were enthusiastic and recorded the movement again in one move.<\/p>\n

Suddenly the Isenheim altar stood before my eyes.<\/p>\n<\/div>
