Organs of Bach’s Time - Silbermann & Baroque organs in Saxony & Thuringia
- Recitals on the finest Baroque organs to survive, some of them instruments which Bach and Handel knew.
- Accompanied by organist James Johnstone, a Bach specialist, who gives recitals and demonstrations in association with the local organists, and by Tom Abbott, art historian. The organs are located in towns and villages off the beaten track.
- For a maximum of 32 participants, the format of this tour is a hybrid between our own-brand music festivals and our small-group tours.
£1,540 (2010) £1,640 (2011) (deposit £150 in 2010, £200 in 2011)—this includes:—air travel (economy class) on bmi and Lufthansa flights (Airbus A319)—travel by private coach—hotel accommodation as described below—breakfasts and 3 dinners, with wine, water and coffee—all organ recitals, admissions to museums, visits, etc.—all tips for drivers, guides, waiters—all taxes—the services of the two lecturers—single supplement £45 (2010) £30 (2011)—price without flights £1,380 (2010) £1,460 (2011).
There is a lot of coach travel with some long journeys—average distance by coach per day: 93 miles.
Memorable. I felt privileged to have access to the intimacy of the galleries and proximity to the organs.
This seemed to me an excellent demonstration of the qualities of a well-run tour: without MRT’s detailed advance arrangements we should not have been able to get to the small places involved, let alone get to the churches and even less been able to hear the organs.
