Karg-Elert: Romantic Pieces for the Suction Harmonium, Jan Hennig, Harmoniumist - [ACD-3074] $16.98

Jan Hennig explores Sigfrid Karg-Elert's music which was composed specifically for the suction harmonium rather than the usual positive pressure of European harmoniums. He plays a saugwind-harmonium (suction-harmonium) built in Leipzig in 1911 by the Mannborg firm.
