La sonade ici disposée sur deux claviers et pédale est extraite de L'Impériale, troisième ordre des Nations de François Couperin, publiée à Paris en 1726. A travers une longue série de pièces en trio tantôt d'esprit contrapuntique, tantôt inspirées de la danse, le compositeur veut évoquer le Saint-Empire germanique et ses musiciens. Divisée en deux volets distincts, l'Impériale débute par une sonate ou sonade en six mouvements, suivie d'une suite de danses ou simphonies. / Orgue

Partition pour orgueNombre de pages : 350Louis Marchand, probablement le musicien le plus brillant, le plus novateur et le plus expérimental du Grand Siècle, en reste toujours le plus méconnu, peut-être en partie du fait de la destination quasi exclusive de son œuvre au grand orgue. Secret, irritable et fantasque, il savait certes moins bien que son rival François Couperin s'attirer les faveurs de la cour, mais public et critiques le tenaient à l'époque en bien plus haute estime, malgré ses frasques légendaires. Divorcer, offenser publiquement Louis XIV et affronter Bach en concours singulier, il faut bien avouer que cela faisait beaucoup pour un seul homme autour de 1700, soit plus d'un demi siècle avant celui que l'on a traditionnellement coutume de tenir pour le premier musicien libre et affranchi: Mozart. La forme du roman, de préférence à l'essai ou à la simple biographie, s'est donc tout naturellement imposée d'emblée comme seule capable de rendre justice à l'imagination, la verve et le douce folie du personnage, incontestablement un musicien brillant, hors norme et fascinant, à découvrir de toute urgence.

Par DALTON JAMES. The Faber Early Organ Series is among the most comprehensive anthologies of early organ music ever published. In 18 volumes it spans two centuries and six geographical regions, presenting a broad and balanced view of the main forms, styles and composers. Within each geographical region the pieces, most of which are for manuals only, are arranged by date of composition or publication. The presentation is both scholarly and practical; all of the music has been newly edited from the earliest surviving sources according to a systematic editorial method that preserves as many features of the original notation as possible while making it fully accessible to modern players. In every volume, an informative Introduction sets the music in historical context. There are also helpful sections on Ornamentation and Registration, and a Critical Commentary giving detailed information on the sources.   / Instrumental Music / Recueil / Orgue

Complete theoretical and practical method for organ-playing in three parts. Par PEETERS FLOR. Flor Peeters, born in Belgium in 1903, is one of the most important organists and organ composers of the 20th century. After completing his studies at the famous Lemmens Institute in Mechelen, he worked there as a teacher of organ and improvisation before becoming professor at and director of the Royal Flemish Conservatoire of Antwerp. Until his death in 1986, Peeters gave concerts all around the world, held numerous master classes and received several awards and prizes for his achievements as a composer, organist and teacher. In his successful three-volume educational work 'Ars Organi', Peeters combines theoretical knowledge and practical exercises on all aspects of organ playing, starting with basic information on the instrument, manual and pedal exercises and two-part manual and pedal playing. While Vol. 2 contains exercises on three-part playing, Vol. 3 contains exercises on four and five-part playing as well as studies on demanding trio playing. Each learning stage is accompanied by pedal exercises and tips on articulation, touch, interpretation, registration and organ specifications - a valuable compendium for every organist. / Méthode / Date parution : 1954-11-20/ Méthode / Orgue
