Naji Hakim returns to Signum with a new release of his own unique compositions for solo organ -performed on the magnificent Stahlhuth-Jann organ of St martin’s Church, Dudelange, Grand Duché du Luxembourg.
Continuing the series with the eminent composer and organist, this is the third release on the Signum label with hakim performing hiw own works on great organs of the world; first from the Harrison & Harrison organ of Glenalmond College, UK (SIG 130) and the second from the van den Heuvel Organ of the Danish Radio, Denmark (SIG 222).
"...Rarely have I heard organ playing of such spontaneity and good humour, or a homage born of such intuition and insight.I have yet to hear Hakim’s other Signum discs, but if they’re even half as piquant and palate-cleansing as this they’ll be must-buys as well. Throw in good, basic liner-notes and organ specs and you have a very enticing package indeed.A walk on the wild side; an absolute must for adventure lovers."

"...this second volume of organ music by Hakim on the Signum label... superbly played by the composer and excellently recorded on the rarely heard Stahlhuth-Jann instrument of St Martin’s church in Dudelange, Luxembourg, is both welcome and valuable..."
