It is a pleasure to share the good news of the availability of a number of important works מבית מדרשו של מו”ר רבש”ה שליט”א, from the circle of Rav Hamburger, chaveirim, talmidim, and followers, online.
Firstly, the first six volumes of the highly esteemed journal ירושתנו, containing important Torah and research in various diverse areas and aspects of the heritage of יהדות אשכנז as well as כלל ישראל בכלל (h/t Friends of Machon Moreshes Ashkenaz), have recently been made available at the renowned Hebrewbooks.org website, to whom we owe a deep debt of gratitude.
Additionally, another interesting work, about a “Shabbos Chassunah”, שבת בריילפט – מנהגי ופיוטי שבת חתונה, in more detail חתונה שחופתה ביום ששי וסעודתה בליל שבת פיוטיה ומנהגיה by R. Noach Hofner, has also been posted at the same site, for a while.
Thanks to all involved in providing such treasures to the public.
Enjoy and be illuminated by the exquisite offerings.

Here is another link that may be interesting for your readers (in Hebrew), it is Harav Hamburger’s drasha from this past Pesach Chol Hamoed in Bnei Barak about the link between the Chasam Sofer and Rashar Hirsch, and Birchas Habanim.

Thanks for your comments.
Usually here we focus more on the written word, which has certain advantages, e.g. it is easier to handle than audiovisual recordings, e.g. to zero in on certain segments, etc. Nevertheless, of course, תורתו של מורנו יקרה וחשובה היא, בין בכתב, בין בע”פ, and perhaps the שיעור או דרשה שהזכרת תהפך בזמן לנושא פה או לתורה שבכתב.
