Edited by C.H. Trevor this book selectively compiles 27 intermediate standard pieces for organ. Although the pieces have suggestions for registration on an organ of two (and sometimes three) manuals all the pieces can be played effectively on a one-manual instrument with appropriate stops. The pedals can be used at the player's discretion. Composers such as Purcell Handel Charpentier Chauvet and Franck all appear in this edition which boasts music spanning 200 years and more.

Twenty-one essential anthems, chorales and marches, arranged and engraved in three staves for two manuals and pedals. Edited by Stephen Duro.

Cette suite de transcriptions propose des pièces au tempérament bien marqué, chacune d'elle étant un petit bijou en soi. L'extrême précision et fidélité des arrangements d'André Isoir les rend parfois difficile d'accès mais le résultat en est fraîcheur, spontanéité, virtuosité, musicalité. C'est là tout l'art de la transcription. A travers des oeuvres rares de Bach, Amner, Purcell, Haendel ou Mozart, les organistes trouveront un réel plaisir à jouer ces pièces sur un orgue d'esthétique française ou classique. / Orgue

Variations for Piano Op.27 arranged for OrganIt may come as a surprise to learn that Anton Webern?s delicate refined and intimate music can be transferred to the organ. Xavier Darasse (1934-1992) a pupil of Duruflé and Messiaen has produced an organ adaptation of the famous three-movement Piano Variations Op.27 (1936) a groundbreaking composition in serial music. His arrangement is accompanied by judicious registration marks and division of the manuals. The result is fully convincing making this late work with its chamber-like atmosphere attractive to organists.Darasse?s adaptation is now presented to the public for the first time. His pupil BernhardHaas an organ professor in Munich has prefixed his teacher?s manuscript with a foreword containing important suggestions regarding the work?s performance.A première publicationPerformance suggestions from Bernhard Haas

from the Opera 'Tannhauser'-During his time in Weimar (1848 1861) Liszt developed a then entirely new organ style which stands out for both orchestral and pianistic elements. Together with the choirmaster Alexander Wilhelm Gottschalg (1827 1908) from Tiefurt he regularly initiated so-called 'organ conferences'. And it was at the suggestion of Gottschalg that the present arrangement of the Pilgrim's Choir from the opera 'Tannhäuser' was written. With his version for organ Liszt by means of this example laid the foundations for the (not always undisputed) tradition extending to the present day of organ transcriptions from the operas of Wagner. 'Organistic' elements in the Pilgrims' Choir are theclassical chorale theme the solemn 'sacred' atmosphere of the solemn tempo as well as the expressive cantability. The linear intensification from the antiphonal-organ-like piano dolce of the beginning to the 'full organ' can be realized in a convincing manner with an orchestrally conceived three-manual organ with the sensitive use of the swell box and the successive seamless build-up of the crescendo pedal being of particular significance. Important repertoire piece marking the 200th birthday of Richard Wagner in 2013.

The importance of Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck (1562–1621) for the evolvement of the „ Claviermusik “ of the baroque is not to be overrated. The scientific and practical issue by Siegbert Rampe is the first one comprising all of the key-oeuvres by Sweelinck
