per organo. Par VASKS PETERIS. Peteris Vasks has written compositions for organ again and again, whether original works or arrangements of his own works for strings. He drew his ideal sound image and his inspiration from the famous organ of the Cathedral in Riga where the composer has been living for a long time. Like in almost all his compositions, the basic idea of 'Musica seria' is the personal human examination of Creation: on the one hand the beauty of Nature, on the other hand the destruction of Nature by man. Vasks' organ music does not provide any great difficulties but rather displays an impressive tonal variety of the most intimate, held back sounds to tremendous chordal eruptions./ Répertoire / Orgue

The Sacred Hour (Reverie) was first published in 1929. It is a musical story of a young priest playing the Organ in a Catholic church when he is interrupted by a choir singing the Ave Maria. He then adapts to this new melody rising to a climax of devotional fervour. Albert William Ketelbey (1875-1959) was a British composer pianist and conductor. He studied Piano at Trinity College of Music in London before branching out and earning a living as a composer and arranger. He became the foremost composer of cinema and light music between the wars so much so that he was hailed as ?Britain?s greatest living composer? in some circles.

Impressioni Musicali su 14 Poesie di Grazia Frisina. Par PINESCHI UMBERTO. The poet Grazia Frisina, Sicilian by origin, but living in Tuscany, a former literature teacher, had asked me to illustrate, by interventions on the organ, the public reading of some of her poems, finding suitable music. After reading these poems, however, I decided to try to write an original comment, taking inspiration from some verses that had particularly struck me. / Date parution : 2022-02-03/ Répertoire / Orgue
