Orchestra Cello, Contrabass, Viola, Violin 1, Violin 2 - Grade 3 SKU: CF.CAS160F From Three Short Pieces for Organ. Composed by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Arranged by Robert Debbaut. Cas. Full score. Duration 3 minutes. Carl Fischer Music #CAS160F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CAS160F). ISBN 9781491165454. UPC: 680160924363. Key: C major. The story of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor is of a rising star composer, one with a significant gift for melody and a simple lyricism, who embraced the previously unexplored song and dance forms from his father’s native west Africa and incorporated them into his own very European art music. Coleridge-Taylor began playing the violin at age five and by age fifteen wasadmitted to London’s Royal College of Music, where he studied both violin and composition and composed his first works. The simply-titled Melody is taken from Three Short Pieces for Organ - a set of pieces originally published in Novello’s Album for the Organ, No. 3 (1898). While certainly typical of the late 19th century, many of Coleridge-Taylor's creations display inspiration by African musical elements much like spirituals inspired Dvořák’s “New World†Symphony. $9.50 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 1 to 2 weeks | | | |

Organ SKU: ST.H491 Composed by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Organ music. With an introduction by Richard Hills. Score. Stainer & Bell Ltd. #H491. Published by Stainer & Bell Ltd. (ST.H491). ISBN 9790220224874. Organist Richard Hills introduces this reissue of a neglected Edwardian classic with a timely note on performance-style, the composer and his works. Varied in colour and mood, and written with an idiomatic command of the instrument, these Three Impromptus reinforce the impression of Coleridge-Taylor not only as a versatile presence on the Edwardian scene, but also as a composer whose music is an enduring part of our British musical heritage.
Stylistically, the Three Impromptus bear a closer resemblance to the composer's theatrical works than to those intended for the church or concert hall. This light-hearted approach to organ composition is all the more striking when one compares these pieces with others written during the same period by Coleridge-Taylor's colleagues and teachers, many of whom were heavily influenced by the German Romantic tradition of Josef Rheinberger and Max Reger. As original compositions (as opposed to transcriptions) the Three Impromptus should prove an invaluable addition to the repertoire for recitalists wishing to programme sophisticated lighter fare that has immediate appeal.
