The Eight Little Fugues, each originally paired with preludes are often performed in churches because of their technical ease and brevity. They have finally been attributed to Bach by most scholars after a number of years of doubt. They are less technically difficult than the full-blown fugues of Bach, but still equally full of beauty and commanding mastery.They are all less than 3 minutes in length with four in major keys and four in minor, appropriate for moderately advanced performers.These may be performed in a quartet or choir setting with multiple performers on a part.

Bruckner's Pange Lingua motet, composed in 1868 is a hymn by the thirteenth-century theologian, St. Thomas Aquinas. The setting of the simple hymn is chorale-like, with the same music used for all three verses, and a lovely Amen being added to mark its finish. The text haunted Bruckner since his early years and he wrote a few settings of it during his lifetime. The music with all of its simplicity has some unexpected dissonances. Mr. Sauer's lovely arrangement of about 3 minutes in length is appropriate for moderately advanced performers.
