Franz Tunder (1614 – November 5, 1667) - Organist of Lübeck Marienkirche from 1641 to his death, succeeded by Buxtehude. Jesus Christus Unser Heyland 00:16 Versus 1 2:34 Versus 2 4:08 Versus 3 6:15 Christ lag in todtes banden 18:58 Jesus Christus, wahr Gottes Sohn 24:20 Prealudium (no. 3, G minor) 28:21 Was kan uns kommen an für Noth 39:15 Prealudium (no. 2, G minor) 42:53 In dich hab ich gehoffet Herr 48:34 Canzona (G major) 50:57 Komm, Heiliger Geist, Herre Gott 58:56 Prealudium (no. 5, Fragment) 59:33 Herr Gott, dich loben wir 1:07:45 Prealudium (no. 4, G minor) Auf meinen lieben Gott 1:12:27 Versus 1 1:16:18 Versus 2 1:19:07 Versus 3 1:21:08 Prealudium (no. 1, F major) 1:25:14 Was kan uns kommen an für Noth (Fragment, completion by Walter Kraft) Played on the organ in St. Ludgers' Church (Ludgerikirche), Norden, Ostfriesland (East Frisia) built by by Arp Schnitger in 1687 and 1692 using pipes by Evers 1619 and de Mare 1567, restored by Ahrend in 1992 1:40:05 Album cover Images are taken from a digital copy of Die Bau- und Kunstdenkmäler der Freien und Hansestadt Lübeck. As far as I know, none of the objects depicted survived the 1942 bombing, with the possible exception of some of the wall-hung epitaphs, or some altars that were moved to the St. Annen museum. I tried to show mostly objects dating from Tunder's time or before, things that he would presumably have been familiar with during his 26-year tenure as organist and “werkmeister“ of the Marienkirche. Of course, the Totentanz mural shown in the video was also not the same one that Tunder saw - it was in bad condition by the end of the 17th century, and was completely repainted by Anton Wortmann in 1701, altering some details of the painting as well as giving it a new narration in High German rather than the original Middle Low German.
