Organ Symphony
No. 2 (2017) was written
for and is dedicated to
German organist Philip
Hartmann. In all of my
works that employ
larger-scale forms (not
just organ compositions),
I am continually looking
for different ways of
providing the form and
structure. My first organ
symphony (2013) comprised
three larger movements
that charted a
progression from dark to
light. By contrast, this
second organ symphony
comprises 12 shorter
movements that together
build a larger structure
out of varied emotional
states. Although the
movements are different
in character, there are
connections of harmony
and motive across them.
One goal behind this work
is that it be suitable
for effective performance
on almost any organ,
small or large. Most
organ symphonies require
a large instrument. By
contrast, this piece can
be played effectively on
even a small organ with a
limited number of stops
(even a one manual organ
with an octave pedal
board). It can also be
very effective on a large
symphonic organ with many
different colors and a
huge tutti. Registration
is left to the
performer's discretion,
and the organist is
strongly encouraged to
use the full extent of
whatever resources are
available.

On the
occasion of the
quincentenary of
Reformation Day in 2017,
the composer Enjott
Schneider thoroughly
studied Martin Luther the
individual and all his
contradictions. The
result is a brilliant,
demanding organ symphony
which is perfect for
concerts on the subject
of Reformation and Martin
Luther.The composer
describes the five
movements of the symphony
as follows:'1st
movement:Wir glauben all
an einen Gott with its
quintuplet-like beginning
is very Gregorian in
style, outlining the
range of Lutheran
emotionalism between the
Middle Ages and the
modern era. The
irrationality of faith
ultimately has priority
over any thought and
evidence. At the
beginning of the
movement, sounds of
knocking on wood remind
of the nailing of the
Ninety-Five Theses to the
doors of churches in
Wittenberg. The chorale
melody sometimes hides
with an almost rough
medieval saltarello,
referring to Luther's
robustness and vitality
with which he knew to
carry away even common
people.2nd movement:In
1530, the electoral
prince of Saxony
presented to Luther at
Coburg Castle the golden
signet ring with the
Luther rose which became
the symbol of his
theology of grace. A
white heart with black
cross is fixed on a
five-petalled rose. To
him, white is the colour
of angels and ghosts,
black stands for the pain
of crucification: The
just shall live by faith,
but by faith in the
Crucified. But the fact
that the rose and the
heart are the dominating
symbols shows how
Catholic Marian piety
remained an ingredient of
Luther's spirituality
throughout his life. In
line with the dominant
five-petal structure of
the rose, this movement
was composed, to a large
extent, in accordance
with the floating,
lyrical rhythm in 5/8
time.3rd movement:The
omnipresence of death and
dying - from the plague
and war to the
never-ending dangers of
daily life - was an
essential part of the
world view of that time.
Fears ensued that might
heighten into the
grotesque, e.g. in the
pictures of Hieronymus
Bosch. The Danse macabre
was a popular motif in
those years. Luther's
chorale Mitten wir im
Leben sind / mit dem Tod
umfangen from 1524
(Enchiridion from Erfurt)
is based on the Gregorian
chant Media vita in morte
sumus created in France
around 750 and, with its
idea of transience,
inspired a simplistic
air.4th movement:The
famous confession
delivered at the Diet of
Worms in 1521, I stand
here and can say no more.
God help me. Amen, are
not Luther's words but
the version later used as
text for a pamphlet.
However, it represents
quite plainly the
straightforwardness and
inevitability of his
mission. Musically, it
was made into a perpetuum
mobile, i.e. a dogged,
ostinato and never-ending
musical air.5th
movement:The Mighty
Fortress, on the other
hand, is one of the great
symbols of Martin Luther
which, with its shining C
major key, embodies the
Protestant ideology and
willful nature of the
Reformation unlike any
other song. Heinrich
Heine called it the
Marseille anthem of the
Reformation, Friedrich
Engels the Marseillaise
of the Peasants' Wars.
This disputability is not
thought through to the
end but rather
interrupted: With a
jubilant birdcall version
of the melody, the finale
shows a rather
chamber-music-like side
of the ideals of freedom
of Christians.'.

transcription of Anthony
Payne's 2006 orchestral
completion from Elgar's
sketches. Robert Gower
comments, Working from
the orchestral score
confirms Payne's musical
intuition in taking
fragments and developing
them into an entirely
convincing whole, one
imbued with Elgarian
spirit and characterised
through the economical
precision of his own art.
Here, intellectual and
artistic integrity
combine to construct
overall architecture in
which not a note is
wasted, painstaking care
is evident in the subtle
details of instrumental
coloring, and where there
is thrilling rhythmic
forward propulsion. In
saluting the skills of
both composers, I have
sought to open out for
organists the excitement
and sincerity of their
work, being designed for
performance not only on
larger organs with a full
range of orchestral
color, but also made
entirely feasible for
performance on smaller
two-manual
instruments..

This
edition is the result of
Harald Vogel's many years
of practice as an
organist and
musicologist. The music
text is based on a
reevaluation of 17th- and
18th-century manuscripts
containing the free organ
and keyboard works by
Buxtehude. They
originated during a
transitional phase
between the traditional
letter tablature and the
staff notation still in
use today. Since many
works have survived only
in transcriptions for
staff notation, the
editor was confronted
with a high error rate,
which he carefully
analyzes in the
Einzelanmerkungen. During
the preparation of the
edition, the editor
always kept sight of the
performance practice, but
still, the image of the
sources is never
distorted (e. g. by
superfluous rests,
beaming not conforming to
the sources and the
unhistorical adjustment
of time signatures) and
stays very close to the
compositional notation,
the letter tablature. The
flexible use of three
staves and the
differentiated
distribution of the
voices on the staves
allow for an
approximation in reading
conventions of historical
notation with its
resulting information
about hand division.
Grouping the free organ
repertoire into works
with obbligato pedal and
works for manuals, this
edition is organized in
two volumes. The first
subvolume (I/1, EB 9304)
contains the Preface and
the Preludes, whereas the
second subvolume (I/2, EB
9305) contains Toccatas,
Ostinato works,
alternative versions and
a comprehensive Critical
Commentary (in German
only). Volume II (EB
9306) contains
Buxtehude's free organ
and keyboard works
(manualiter) with the
corresponding texts
(Preface and Critical
Commentary).Until 1971,
Harald Vogel worked on a
dissertation (with Georg
von Dadelsen, Hamburg) on
Die Fuge um Bach. Besides
the description of the
inclusion of triple
measures into the C
notation and the
irregularities of the
voice mutation in the
polyphonic structures,
this also included a
discussion about the
justification of the
inner textual criticism.
With the inner textual
criticism, deviations in
parallel passages are
unified. The North German
fugue style, reaching a
peak in Buxtehude's work,
is characterized by a
constant diversity of
details in subject and
polyphonic progressions.
One of the indicators of
the fantastic style is
the dissolution of the
polyphonic structures at
the ends of the fugues,
evident in Buxtehude's
work.In this edition, a
musical text is presented
that avoids the
uniformity of detail not
conforming to the
sources. However, there
are many examples of
transcription and cursory
errors, which are
analyzed in a methodical
systematic manner. About
the editor: As an
organist, professor,
organ expert, and
scholar, Harald Vogel has

services to the

dissertation (with Georg
von Dadelsen, Hamburg) on
Die Fuge um Bach. Besides
the description of the
inclusion of triple
measures into the C
notation and the
irregularities of the
voice mutation in the
polyphonic structures,
this also included a
discussion about the
justification of the
inner textual criticism.
With the inner textual
criticism, deviations in
parallel passages are
unified. The North German
fugue style, reaching a
peak in Buxtehude's work,
is characterized by a
constant diversity of
details in subject and
polyphonic progressions.
One of the indicators of
the fantastic style is
the dissolution of the
polyphonic structures at
the ends of the fugues,
evident in Buxtehude's
work.In this edition, a
musical text is presented
that avoids the
uniformity of detail not
conforming to the
sources. However, there
are many examples of
transcription and cursory
errors, which are
analyzed in a methodical
systematic manner. About
the editor: As an
organist, professor,
organ expert, and
scholar, Harald Vogel has

Harald Vogel is the
author and editor of
numerous scholarly
publications and
editions. Through his
lifelong performance
practice, he can look

which he recorded in
various locations with
historical organ
instruments of the North
German organ building
tradition in Scandinavia,
