Andrej Harinek

Andrej Harinek is a Slovak organist known for his interpretations of Baroque organ music, particularly the works of J.S. Bach, Buxtehude, and Bruhns. His recordings often feature live performances, capturing the energy and immediacy of his playing in the acoustic spaces where these pieces were originally intended to be heard. He also explores lesser-known composers and includes transcriptions in his repertoire, showcasing the versatility and enduring appeal of the organ.

Harinek's recent releases reflect his deep engagement with the Baroque organ tradition. From comprehensive recordings of Bruhns and Buxtehude to individual works like Bach's iconic Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, he offers listeners a journey through the rich and complex world of organ music. He also incorporates pieces like "Cuckoo in Silent Night," demonstrating an interest in both traditional and more contemporary arrangements for the instrument.
