Added by magataganm, 23 Jul 2016 Gottfried August Homilius (1714 - 1785) was a German composer, cantor and organist. He is considered one of the most important church composers of the generation following Bach's, and was the main representative of the empfindsamer style. Homilius predominantly composed church music: more than 10 passions (one printed in 1775; his St. Matthew Passion, particularly outstanding in the preclassical style of C.P.E. Bach and an extremely worthy successor of J.S. Bach's best-known work of the same name, has been recorded on CD), an oratorio for Christmas (1777) and one for Easter, over 60 motets, more than 150 cantatas (six arias from these appeared in 1786), chorales, preludes, and choral works. His students included eminent composer Daniel Gottlob Türk. See: List of music students by teacher: G to J#Gottfried August Homilius. His vocal compositions enjoyed great popularity through the 19th century, as witnessed by the large number of copies still extant. A complete worklist and edition is in preparation at Carus Verlag; the Homilius-Werkverzeichnis numbers (HoWV) follow the dissertation of Karl Feld and the new edition of Uwe Wolf. Little is known about the Fugue in D Major (BWV 580) however scholars are convinced it is the not the work of J. S. Bach and have since attributed the work to Homilius.

Although originally composed for Organ, I created this modern interpretation of the Fugue in G Major (BWV 581) for Concert (Pedal) Harp.
