Lemare's compositions are uneven in quality, but the best are still active in the repertoire. The Toccata di Concerto is certainly full of fireworks and has the capacity to show the abilities of a great Organ. The upper parts have plenty of French toccata style, but the theme in the pedals gives the piece substance, as does the romantic, chromatic interlude in the middle of the work.Organ virtuoso and composer Edwin Lemare was the world's highest-paid Organist at the height of his career in the early 1900's, drawing bravos from ctritics and the crowds who queued around the block to hear this most famous of Organists. After having served as a church Organist for a relativelyshort period, he began the life of a travelling recitalist, beginning with a hundred-recital tour of the USA and Canada in 1900, a career that continued until the stock market crash of 1929. Lemare was also virtuosic in his ability to transcribe great Orchestral works for the Organ, allowing audiences in those less urban times to hear works played live that they might have heard no other way.

Three of the five movements -- Parade, Fishing, and Fireworks -- evoke happy, summertime events in Rochester, New York. Friend and Slow Dance are sadder and more reflective. 16 pages Published by: Zimbel Press.

Robert Helmschrott, born in 1938, was professor at the Munich Musikhochschule where he was also headmaster from 1995-2003. He wrote numerous choral and orchestral works and is one of the most important German representatives of contemporary church music. His work 'Salut' is a one-movement concert piece which is rewarding for both players. After a lengthy introduction for solo trumpet, both instruments present fireworks of brilliant idiomatic figurations, yet also make sure that pensive, lyrical tones get their fair share too. A rewarding concert piece of ca. 8 minutes' duration.

Ein wesentliches Werk Miegs. Ursprunglich als Introitus bezeichnet, steht dieses Stuck als einziges Werk fur Orgel solo an einem Wendepunkt von Miegs kompositorischem Oeuvre: im Ubergang von seinem Fruhwerk zu seinem Reifestil der 50er Jahre. Ostinatoartige Thematik erinnert an Merkmale fruherer Werke. Harmonische Querstande und wuchtige Abschnitte stehen neben fein ziselierten Passagen.
