This edition of the Organ Book by Nicolas de Grigny was edited by C. L. Koehlhoeffer. Featuring 43 pieces this book uses pedals and other techniques that would be known by advanced players. The scores of the Organ Book were first published in 1699 under another name before being republished under this name in 1711. J. S. Bach corrected these initial editions and his corrections are still taken into account in this book. Organ Book is a good representation of the Organ music of the Louis XIV period. Nicolas de Grigny was a French organist living in the areaof Rheims where he was the main Cathedral organist.

This is a marvellous collection of pieces by Henry Purcell newly arranged for the Organ by concert organist Martin Setchell. Purcell's music is perfectly suited to the Organ and a number of his pieces have long been popular with players. This volume brings together a range of well-known pieces - trumpet tunes the Rondeau from Abdelazer Dido's Lament and movements from The Fairy Queen - and combines these with a wonderful selection of lesser-known pieces from across Purcell's work. There are sprightly tunes and hornpipes from the stage works lovely reflective songs and airs and a wide range of dances and chaconnes. The result is a set of pieceswith wise and varied church and concert use perfectly accessible to intermediate players and making a valuable addition to any organist's repertoire.

He combines his university teaching and research career with a busy and international schedule of recitals and concerts as soloist accompanist and continuo player on Organ and Harpsichord.

Early Organ Works/Fragments-Bärenreiter has joined forces with the International César Franck Society to produce a five-volume complete edition of the organ works of César Franck. In addition to all accessible sources it draws on previously neglected manuscripts making it possible to offer a reliable musical text based on meticulous text-critical comparisons. Text variants cases of doubt and editorial decisions are recorded in a comprehensive Critical Commentary.Volume 1 edited by Christiane Strucken-Paland is the first publication to contain all of Franck?s surviving early organ works fragments and variants. Special attention has been given to his largest early work the Fantasy in A major which was left unpublished during his lifetime and only resurfaced a few years ago. Here Franck already displays his consummate mastery of thematic development.Organ works at the forefront of Franck scholarshipForeword (Fr/Eng/Ger) and comprehensive Critical Commentary (Eng)With facsimile illustrations

Josef Rheinberger (1839-1901) was a prolific composer in almost every field but he found in the organ the medium best fitted to his genius and temperament. This seems to be proved by the fact that his reputation as an organ composer has grown and is now firmly established whereas his position in other branches has declined.His twenty sonatas and numerous other short pieces make up one of the most important contributions to the organ repertory. It may indeed be claimed that in the maintainance of a high level of quality and interest throughout a long series of works of both large and small scale his position as an organ composer is second only to that of Bach.

Instrument : organ Nombre de Pages : 62 This School of Organ Playing presupposes a certain technical facility on the piano. The pedal exercises at the beginning are rudimentary and should be practiced in all keys, gradually accelerating the tempo. The studies are graded according to their polyphony, beginning with simple two part exercises, followed by those in three and more parts. This acquaintance with the strict principles of polyphonic music, and the introduction to effective part writing, with a knowledge of harmonic form and architectonic values, provide the essential background for the correct performance of polyphonic music, especialle the fugue. The most important musical forms have been used to illustrate the various possibilites of registration and its relationship to style (colourful, individualistic and smooth playing). The studies are so arranged that earlier technical points, etc. are constantly reviewed, through comparison of style and form, in order to fix, or refreshen, the ideas in the student's mind. It is very important that the evolution of organ music from vocal music should be made clear to the student the very beginning, both musically and intellectually. He will be shown the technical evolution of organ music during the centuries and thus prepared for an artistic execution and interpretation of old and new words, especially for the incomparable art of our great Johann Sebastian Bach.

Preface: 'The Bells of Vestervig' was originally commissioned for carillon and organ. It was first performed by Peter Langberg and Ivar Mæland in connection with the re-inauguration of the organ in Vestervig Church in Denmark February 27th 2011. The version for organ solo differs somewhat from the original version without the main structure or the theme being altered. The ?premiere? of the organ version was performed by Flemming Dreisig March 10th 2012 in The Church of Our Lady Copenhagen. Each movement may be used independently liturgically or in concert. If one wishes to perform them as one piece then it would be recommended to play them in the given order. Kvinesdal mars 2012; Sverre Eftestøl.
