Jan H Borjesson - Gothica (2025) [Hi-Res]

Jan H. Börjesson’s Gothica is a hauntingly beautiful journey through the rich but often overlooked world of Scandinavian Romantic organ music. Showcasing works by composers like Elfrida Andrée, Sara Wennerberg-Reuter, and Emil Sjögren, the album weaves together lush harmonies, lyrical introspection, and Gothic grandeur. Börjesson’s masterful playing on historic Swedish organs breathes life into these evocative pieces, balancing solemnity with radiant expressiveness. From the dramatic flourishes of Andrée to the poetic delicacy of Sjögren, Gothica is a revelation—an atmospheric tribute to the Nordic spirit and a must-hear for lovers of organ repertoire and Romantic-era treasures.
