The concert completes the performance of the "Third Part of the Clavierübung" by J. S. Bach in Lahm after the Reformation service on the previous evening. The programme includes the major and some of the minor chorale arrangements, the four duets and Praeludium et Fuga in E flat major, played by Prof. Lucas Pohle on the historic Herbst organ. The "Himlische Cantorey" flanks the chorale arrangements with corresponding chorale movements by J. S. Bach.

The Heinrich Gottlieb Herbst organ from 1732 is one of the most valuable historical organs in Bavaria; over 90 per cent of the high-quality original substance is still preserved today. A comprehensive restoration is in preparation, for which donations are being sought on site and via online sponsorships.

With the kind support of the Niederfüllbach Foundation, the Upper Franconia Foundation, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria, the Evangelical Lutheran Deanery of Michelau and the Friends of the Lahm Autumn Organ.

The idyllic half-timbered village of Lahm is dominated by the tower of the Schloßkirche "Holy trinity", which is widely known for its valuable baroque organ. The organ was built in 1732 by Heinrich Gottlieb Herbst with 29 stops on two manuals and pedal. The Herbst organ is one of the most important monumental organs in Germany. Concerts are organised on a regular basis.
