Congratulations! You play on one of the most beautiful Danish organs. I recently saw an information that organ builder Johann Lotentz also composed organ music. According to a private organ pupil I had here in Brazil, this extremely beautiful composition can perhaps be considered as Buxtehude's happiest work.
At first I thought that this composition, having 4 sharps in the key signature, originally came from a well-tempered organ. But then I remembered that a few meantone-tuned organs had split D♯/E♭ as well as G♯/A♭ keys, and I don't know the specifications (including tuning) of the organs that Buxtehude had access to. I have heard of it being a bit of a mixed bag for Bach, and that the time of transition from meantone to well-tempered tuning and then equal temperament (or even straight from meantone to equal temperament) varied by region.
That’s a good question, I will look into which organs Buxtehude had acces to. This instrument is mainly from 1554, with a few parts even from before - so it predates Buxtehude with almost a century, and is tuned unequally, but with 4 pure fifths. I find that this piece has a certain freshness to it on this instrument. 😊
Vidunderligt, det perfekte orgel til dette stykke.
Bravo bravo bravo

It is probably my favorite organ in Denmark!
I don’t know Johann Lotentz’ music very well, but will look into it. :) Many greetings to you in Brazil.
That was perfect! I loved everything! :D
Thank you! 🎶😊
Wonderful performance. I love the middle improvisatory section. You put so much musicality into it!
😊Thank you Hannah🎶
