Handel Coronation Anthems in Urtext editions for the first time'Zadok the Priest?(BA 10258) and 'The King shall rejoice?(BA 10259) are the best-known of the four coronation anthems that Handel wrote for the crowning of George II in London (1727). HWV 258 accompanied the king's anointment, HWV 260 his actual coronation.Thanks to their festive and majestic structure befitting the occasion as well as their spacious scoring for large choir and orchestra, it comes as no surprise that motifs from 'Zadok the Priest? have found their way into the official hymn of the UEFA Champions League.The present editions by the authoritative Handel scholar Stephan Blaut are the first to offer these two anthems based on the Urtext from the 'Halle Handel Edition?.- Bilingual Forewords (Ger/Eng)- Idiomatic piano reductions- Based on the Halle Handel Edition / Orgue

Mit dem Beginn der Editionsreihe Meister der Norddeutschen Orgelschule wurde das Ziel gesetzt, den kompositorischen Ertrag einer rund anderthalb Jahrhunderte währenden Entwicklung der norddeutschen Orgelmusik (1600-1750) in ihren wesentlichen Erscheinungsformen möglichst vollständig editorisch aufzubereiten und der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich zu machen. Die Ausgabe der Görlitzer Tabulatur von Samuel Scheidt bildet nun als 36. Band den Abschluss dieser Bemühungen. Das Tabulatur-Buch, das 1650 erstmals im Druck erschien, sollte Organisten ein Repertoire an vierstimmigen Begleitsätzen zu über 100 Titeln an die Hand geben, die sie bei Gottesdiensten oder zu Hause, auf der Orgel oder anderen, häuslichen Tasteninstrumenten spielen und singen konnten. / Orgue

Mendelssohn produced an early work for Organ in 1837, but it was a London music publishing firm who commissioned the first of his mature Organ works. The second half of the commissioned pieces are published in this volume. Mendelssohn himself saved all his manuscripts and they have survived in libraries in Berlin and Krakow, providing the subtitle of this book.Eleven movements are included here, all written in 1844 and 1845. What were originally commissioned as 'Voluntaries' were changed at the composer's request to 'Sonatas'. Whether one considers these movements as drafts and sketches or as distinct musical entities in their own right, the works are not identical to the final, printed versions. For those who appreciate or study the Mendelssohn Organ oeuvre, this volume is of immense interest.While the Organ never completely fell from grace as the instrument of church and religious music, it is the editor's belief that in the century dividing JS Bach from these works of Mendelssohn, fashion and church practice had greatly diminished its importance and few works of real note were produced. Mendelssohn was introduced to the Organ early in his prodigious career and found a warm audience for his Organ performances in Engand, to which he returned nine times over nearly twenty years. / Orgue

Par GRAY ALAN. The four organ sonatas of Alan Gray (1855-1935) stand as one of the largest contributions to the sonata repertoire by an English composer. Published around 1890, they also mark an advancement in the repertoire of potential concert works. Gray had not studied abroad and his sonatas demonstrate a compelling emergence of a distinctly English style of organ sonata after almost half a century of continental influence. All four sonatas show a strong command of not only writing for the instrument but also the art of registration. Gray?s indications are clear, logical, and practical. He writes for a symphonic organ of at least three manuals but many of the pieces could be played on an instrument of only two manuals. The use of contrasting manual colours between phrases and the incorporation of solo stops is notable for conveying Gray?s views on interpretation and his strong understanding of the instrument. / Date parution : 2022-05-31/ Recueil / Orgue

The Husum Organ Book from 1758 documents in a unique way how north-German organ music developed in the first half of the 18th century in the generations following Dieterich Buxtehude and Vincent Lübeck. It contains 17 original works from northern Germany. Twelve of these works are concertos in three or four movements for unaccompanied organ. The fact that these are original compositions is a novelty in music history. Most known works of this type were arrangements of orchestral works./ Répertoire / Orgue

Par MAXIM CHRISTOPHER. There being no just cause or impediment to the contrary, Christopher Maxim makes a daring liaison between the music-hall ballad 'Daisy, Daisy' (on pedals) and the grand organ style of Vierne (on manuals) in his Toccata Nuptiale, written for the wedding of a friend whose passions include cycling. The result, which moves along way from the organ loft of Notre Dame, is a splendid addition to the repertoire of wedding music and of light-hearted concert works - and is much simpler to play than a real Vierne toccata!/ Répertoire / Orgue

The New Edition of Bach's Complete Organ Works With repertoire works, musicians often have the choice between editions conceived for practical music-making and others that are more scholarly in concept. This also applies to the organ works of Johann Sebastian Bach, which are available today in various editions. Among them is that of Heinz Lohmann, which Breitkopf and Härtel began publishing in 1967 and whose concept strove for an amalgamation of practice and Urtext. Current Urtext status, historically informed, edited with performers in mind: More than 40 years later, the demands made on a new Urtext edition of Bach's organ works are as stringent as ever before. Next to the results of scholarly research on Bach and the sources, aspects of a historically informed performance practice are increasingly claiming our attention today. Also important for study, teaching and concert performance are, in addition to the above-mentioned demands, such external criteria as format, paper, convenient page turns and an easily legible layout that helps the user quickly grasp the musical context. The new edition, beginning in 2010, also contains all keyboard works with pedal and the 'dubious works' that are hardly dubious anymore The edition of Johann Sebastian Bach's organ works which Breitkopf and Härtel is beginning to publish in fall 2010 wants to do justice to these demands. Next to the core contents of the repertoire, it will also feature all of the master's 'clavier' works which require an independent pedal. Moreover, it will include all authentic early versions as well as the fragmentarily transmitted works. As to the dubious works, it will contain those which can be attributed to Bach today with considerable certainty. It offers incerta, early, and alternative versions on CD-ROM In this work group, the new edition uses for the first time the modern forms of editorial technique with which the synoptical depiction of various versions is made possible on CD-ROM. Thanks to the collaboration with the EDIROM project, which is a leader in the field of digital scientific editorial technique, the edition offers new types of solutions. Incerta, early, and alternative versions that cannot be included in the printed volumes for reasons of size or problems of authenticity, are published on CD-ROM, supplied with comments, and depicted synoptically. Thus, after comparing the versions, the player can decide upon a different version than the one printed in the volume, and can make a high-quality print-out of it. The texts and comments customary to the 'Breitkopf Urtext' editions comprehensive introductions, extensive source descriptions and text-critical observations can be found in the printed version of the volumes. Edited by a competent team: With Werner Breig (Erlangen), Pieter Dirksen (Culemborg/Netherlands) and Reinmar Emans (Bochum), a.o. we have brought together a team that guarantees the highest expertise in various domains. Further Bach experts such as Sven Hiemke (Hamburg), David Schulenberg (Boston) and Jean-Claude Zehnder (Basel) were also enlisted for the edition of single volumes. Werner Breig (* 1932) studied Evangelical church music in Berlin as well as musicology in Erlangen and Hamburg. He obtained his doctorate in 1962 and completed his habilitation (postdoctoral lecturing qualification) in 1973. He then devoted himself to musicology at the Universities of Freiburg i. Br, Karlsruhe, Wuppertal and Bochum. Since his retirement in 1997 he has been living in Erlangen. Between 1997 and 2007 Breig was appointed General Editor of the complete edition of Richard Wagners letters. He is the author of many publications and editions, particularly of early clavier and organ music by Heinrich Schütz and Johann Sebastian Bach, but also of Richard Wagner and Arnold Schoenberg. Furthermore he is the author of the Bach article in the dictionary Die Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart (MGG, 2nd edition). Pieter Dirksen (* 1961) studied organ, harpsichord and musicology. His 1996 doctoral thesis on Sweelinck's keyboard music was awarded the Praemium Erasmianum. Dirksen has since published many studies on, and editions of, several masters of the 17th century (Sweelinck, Bull, Cornet, Scheidt, Scheidemann, Buxtehude, Luebeck, Johann Christoph Bach) as well as Johann Sebastian Bach. In collaboration with Harald Vogel, he edited Sweelinck's Complete Works for Keyboard Instrument (4 volumes, Breitkopf and Härtel). Dirksen is a member of the academic board of the Bach-Jahrbuch as well as a sought-after harpsichordist, organist and continuo player in international ensembles. Dirksen issued a number of much-acclaimed solo recordings (Sweelinck, Scheidemann, Boehm, Louis Couperin, Bach-Vivaldi, Bachs Art of Fugue and Goldberg Variations). Edison Winner 2003. Reinmar Emans (* 1953) studied musicology in Bonn and wrote his doctoral thesis on the cantatas and canzonettas of Giovanni Legrenzi in 1982. From 1983 to 2008 he was an academic staff member of the Johann-Sebastian-Bach-Institut Göttingen, and temporarily deputy of the managing director. He has taught in Bochum, Marburg, Detmold, Cologne and Hamburg, and has been a freelance contributor to various music periodicals. In 2000 he was responsible for the conception and direction of the Thuringian state exhibition 'Der junge Bach: Weil er nicht aufzuhalten' in Erfurt. He has conducted research and produced publications on opera and the cantata in 17th-century Italy, on stylistic development in the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, and on editorial philology./ Répertoire / Orgue

Par OGDEN NIGEL. Written to inaugurate a series of lunchtime concerts at Manchester Town Hall, one of Britain's finest examples of Victorian architecture and home of the magnificent Cavaille-Coll organ. English through and through, New Era opens with a short fanfare motif which helps to bind the sections together as it marches along with more than a hint of Elgar. Easy under the fingers (and feet) this is a real player's piece and would suit any occasion where a little pomp and ceremony is required./ Répertoire / Orgue

'Mors et vita' - death and life. This antithesis opens a stanza of the ancient 11th-century Easter sequence 'Victimae paschali laudes', where life and death are locked in mutual struggle. Zsigmond Szathmary's 12-minute composition of 2015, commissioned for the Freiburg Minster, interprets this primal human experience with mighty explosions of sound. Here the organ can show what it's capable of: its grandeur and strength are fully exploited, but not at the expense of soft and gentle contrasts. Typical of Szathmary's compositional style is the alternation of seemingly improvised, recitative-like writing and passages in strict rhythm. Time and again the composer takes up elements from the church hymn 'Christ ist erstanden von der Marter alle' (Christ the Lord is risen again). / Orgue

Dans la tradition de la musique écrite en hommage à un artiste mort, cette oeuvre a été composée pour Thomas Trotter en commémoration du peintre français Georges Rouault (1871-1958). Une figure marquante de la Renaissance artistique et intellectuelle de la vie catholique française dans la première moitié du XXe siècle, les travaux de Rouault était sombre, subtil et émouvant dans son observation de la fragilité de la vie humaine. Il a peint les juges, les clowns, les prostituées, les pauvres et le Christ. Les archétypes et capturés dans son travail de caractères ont été l'inspiration subliminale derrière une grande partie de la matière dans la musique. Cette pièce considérant éblouissante est coulée dans une travée unique comprenant plusieurs sections contrastées, et il invite toute la gamme des capacités techniques, expressives et registrationnelle d'instrument et de joueur. La première a été donnée par Thomas Trotter sur l'instrument Klais Symphony Hall, Birmingham en mars 2004, suivie des représentations au Royal Albert Hall de Londres, Philharmonie de Cologne et Gewandha de Leipzig... / Orgue

Né à Beyrouth et formé au Conservatoire de Paris, l'organiste et compositeur Naji Hakim (né en 1955) a remporté de nombreux prix à la fois comme créateur et comme un artiste. Après avoir travaillé comme organiste à Paris depuis de nombreuses années, par exemple en tant que successeur d'Olivier Messiaen à La Trinité, il a été compositeur en résidence à la Royal Academy of Music de Londres depuis 2004. Pour le 100e anniversaire de l'organe Binns à l'Albert Hall à Nottingham, il a été chargé d'écrire 'Fanfare pour Nottingham. Le compositeur a conçu une oeuvre comme 'une série de variations libres et énergique sur la mélodie de l'hymne ' Nottingham 'qui accompagne une procession joyeuse' - il est devenu une oeuvre hymnique et efficace, un atout précieux pour le répertoire d'orgue. / Orgue
