Getting to the very bottom of new music - this is what drives organist Wolfgang Kogert: "It is incredibly inspiring for me to get to know those people who created these compositions. This opens up their music to me even more comprehensively." High is the number of works that Wolfgang Kogert has premiered and dedicated to him, relying on his respectful approach, virtuosity and meticulousness. He spares no effort to visit composers for joint rehearsals at their places of work. In the last fifteen years he has gained a profound overview of musicians from many countries, generations and styles. The internationally sought-after musician and lecturer at the University Mozarteum Salzburg has also observed that "music and composer: in often seem to form a unity - this is expressed in the whole personality, in the habitus, in the use of language and of course in the rehearsal work." For his album "Horizon," the native Viennese and organist of his hometown's tradition-rich Hofmusikkapelle has found his way to a coherent round of pieces, a compilation that has grown gradually. Without focusing on a single work, the compositions, which were written around the year 2000, are, in his view, successful examples of the diversity of today's music and the tonal possibilities offered by the organ as an instrument. For Wolfgang Kogert, two criteria must be fulfilled when dealing with a composition: emotion and inspiration. "Does the piece arouse strong emotions in me at the first moment and does it inspire me sustainably in the sense that this music won't let me go?" With the exception of "Péan IV" by Jean-Pierre Leguay, all of the works are first recordings. In order to ensure the greatest possible authenticity, the performer worked in close artistic exchange with all composers throughout the entire process of creating the album.
