Rolf Uusväli 1930-2005

The estonian master organist passed away last summer. I am listening to his splendid recording of Andre Raison's "messe du 2em ton", a very fine work. The organ is the 81-stop 1923 Walcker in Tallinn. The LP is part of a large "estonian organs" series. Bach's passacaglia is also included (yes, played on the Walcker! )

Obviously no one has heard about Uusväli. I have 7 of his LP series which consists of 33 (?) LPs.

Maybe because he played a Walcker organ?
