0:38 --- Luther's melody is quoted by Brian Easdale in his score for "The Red Shoes", the 1948 film written and directed by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. Great film, great music. --Waving from Istanbul.
Another interesting aspect is the direction of the voices creating the first chord, entering one by one but from the soprano to the bass: maybe a rethorical image of Christ descending to earth.
We recorded on both organs, see for example: ruclips.net/video/ES7fN2lXWHU/видео.html We also used the Reil because it's a nice instrument and well suited for smaller works

Can I ask what made the decision to use the Reil organ for this rather than the larger Hinsz?
