Life

Dahlke received organ and piano lessons from an early age. From 1990 to 1992 he first studied Protestant theology in Göttingen and then church music at the Bremen University of the Arts (A-exam 1998 and concert studies 2000) with Tillmann Benfer , Harald Vogel and Hans-Ola Ericsson . At the university, Dahlke is a professor for organ and harmonium and a member of the Arp Schnitger Institute located there.

From 1996 to 2002 he was cantor in Sottrum . He is currently organist at the Great Church in Leer , about whose organ he has created extensive documentation with organ builder Jürgen Ahrend . The starting point was the examination of the inscriptions of the tone letters on the historical pipe inventory, which enabled an assignment to the individual organ builders. Over the course of four centuries, this important instrument was expanded more and more, with the old pipework being essentially taken over. Together with Ahrend, Dahlke has developed a concept for the restoration of the organ in the Great Church , which is to be restored and expanded by 2018.

From 2000 to 2002 he was an organ expert for the Hanover regional church for the Elbe-Weser triangle . Since 2003 he has held this position, which also includes organist training, for the Evangelical Reformed Church, which appointed him to succeed Harald Vogel as regional church music warden in 2006. As organ auditor for the Lutheran parish of Emsland-Bentheim, Dahlke has also been responsible for the organs of the Lutheran congregations since 2013. A total of around 400 organs from different federal states fall within his area of ​​responsibility, including valuable monument organs.

Dahlke has been Head of Organeum since 2002 and Director of Organeum - Ostfriesische Orgelakademie since 2006 , where he organizes concerts, guided tours, training courses and organ tours. He is responsible for the regional organist training and as an organ expert he is entrusted with the care of numerous historical organs and with various restoration projects. Dahlke has published in the field of organological research. Several CD recordings have been made.
