When Joseph Haydn assumed the position as music director of the Court of Esterhazy in 1766, following the death of his predecessor, Gregor Joseph Werner, he began by composing his first and most extensive Missa solemnis. The title Missa Cellensis (later also known as the Cecilian Mass) and the date of an autograph score suggest that this work was probably commissioned by Prince Nicolaus Esterhazy for the 600th anniversary of the pilgrimage church Mariazell located in Styria. With regard to the scoring as well as form, this Mass is still in the tradition of the late baroque number mass. In contrast to previous mixed versions based on various sources, the new edition follows the authentic (original) version using the most reliable sources. This work is now available in carus music, the choir app. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4060400.

Pedals only and Large Tam-Tam. The Kraken is a work for organ pedals with the player also playing a large tam-tam (or the player could also be joined by a percussionist.) It is based upon the poem by the same name by Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892.) The Kraken is a mythical Norse sea monster. The opening lines of the poem give the setting for the music, which starts on the lowest possible pitches and works upward to a frenzy in both instruments: Below the thunders of the upper deep, Far, far beneath in the abysmal sea, His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep The Kraken sleepeth.

Das Fragment Kyrie eleison fur Orgel im Fruhjahr 1980 fur Zsigmond Szathmary komponiert ist Fragment im fruher angedeuteten Sinn. Als Ausschnitt aus dem Labyrinth unserer musikalischen Moglichkeiten, als Teilausdruck von diesen. Vielleicht auch Beginn eines grosseren Zyklus.Zugleich Ruckerinnerung an meine musikalische Kindheit, als ich, die Pedale mit den Fussen kaum erreichend, auf einer Orgelbank sass in einem kleinen Dorf mit dem schonen Namen Odenspiel, improvisierend ohne Ende, traumverloren.Spater wurden Kirche wie Orgel zum Problem. In neuen Stucken nun Ausgang von einfachen Elementen (Ton und Farbe, Intervall und Cluster, periodischer und aperiodischer Rhythmus, Gestik und Feld), Versuch, entsprechend den Bedingungen der Orgel, Punkt und Linie zur Flache zu formen. Auch zu explosiven Ausbruchen.Die Tone zu Beginn und Ende bilden ein Halbtonintervall, zugleich ein stationares Tongewebe. Erinnerung eines alten Klagerituals? Versteinert als nicht mehr mogliches oder noch nicht wieder mogliches Kyrie eleison?(Friedhelm Dohl)Bibliography:Petersen, Birger: Neue Musik. Analysen, Berlin: Simon Verlag fur Bibliothekswissen 2013, pp. 111-120.
