There is a recording on Mottete with Wisskirchen playing the Altenberg
organ.  Its with music by Felix A.  Guilmant and features the symphonies
for organ and orchestra nos.  1 and 2, the marche elegiaque op.74, 1 f.
organ, 2 oboes & strings.  The orchestra is the Grzenich-Orchester Koeln
under Hempfling!  By the way, Altenbers is *very* far from Stuttgart (some
400 km)!  Its an old Cisterciansian abbey near Koeln....
