Herbert Tachezi

Herbert Tachezi was an Austrian organist, harpsichordist, and music scholar celebrated for his profound interpretations of Baroque and Classical repertoire. Born in 1930, he became a pillar of historically informed performance, specializing in the works of J.S. Bach, C.P.E. Bach, and Mozart. His recordings, like *Bach: Die Kunst der Fuge* and *Mozart: Organ Works*, showcase his technical mastery and deep understanding of period instruments, often performed on historic organs to preserve authentic textures.

A dedicated educator, Tachezi taught at Vienna’s University of Music and Performing Arts, shaping generations of musicians. His legacy lives on through recordings that balance scholarly rigor with emotional resonance, making complex works like the *Toccata and Fugue in D Minor* feel both timeless and freshly vibrant. Though he passed away in 2016, his recordings remain essential listening for organ music enthusiasts.
