Added by magataganm, 07 Dec 2013 Moritz Brosig (1815 - 1887) was a German composer and organist. He was born in in Fuchswinkel at Patschkau (Upper Silesia) and lived his life in in Breslau Germany. Brosig attended the Breslauer Matthias High School and then studied music at the Breslau cathedral organist Franz Wolf . From 1853 to 1884 he was the Wroclaw cathedral organist and Director of Music and teacher at the Academic Institute for Church Music and Royal University Music Director. He received his doctorate at the University of Breslau in 1879 with a dissertation on churches compositions of the 16th and 17 Century and later became a professor. Brosig wrote nine fairs, numerous compositions for the organ, a Catholic hymn book, piano and cello compositions, a modulation theory and harmony, which underwent numerous editions. His students included Adolf Cebrian , Salomon Jadassohn , Anna Benfey and Hermann Scholtz. This Postludium is from Book 1 Opus 56 No.4 of his Eight Pieces for Organ "Acht Orgelstücke" (Praeludien in e-moll, C-dur; Postludien in f-moll, d-moll, Vorspiele zu "Straf mich nicht in deinem Zorn", "Komm Gott, Schöpfer"; Trios in E-dur, G-dur). This work was adapted from his earlier work "Festival Prelude in E Flat Major" Opus 46from Eight Pieces for Organ different character "Acht Orgelstücke verschiedenen Charakters" (Praeludien in D-dur, f-moll, G-dur, C-dur, c-moll, D-dur; Festvorspiel in Es-dur, Praeludium in g-moll). Although originally written for Organ, I created this arrangement for Brass Quintet (Bb Trumpet, French Horn, Eb Alto Horn, Trombone and F Tuba). |
