The
Complete Vocal Works
Johann Pachelbel is known
today as a composer of
organ music and of a
world-famous instrumental
canon which frequently
features in concert
programmes and recording
catalogues. However, the
same can be said of only
a few of his vocal
compositions. At most,
the motets appear
occasionally in church
music repertoire.
Pachelbelâ??s arias,
vocal concerti and
large-scale Magnificats
have received little
attention up to now.
Church musicians and
musicologists have long
wished for a critical
edition of these
important works, which
survive in Pachelbelâ??s
manuscript and were
largely composed in his
main places of work,
Erfurt and Nuremberg . As
always with such
ventures, new discoveries
are to be expected
regarding the body of
works, source material
and the context of the
works. This concerns not
only beautiful music, but
rather a deepening of our
understanding of
Pachelbel as a key figure
between southern and
central German
traditions, and the
recognition of an oeuvre
which has all too often
been pushed into the
shadows by the mighty
Bach.
The
Critical Edition
The edition aims to make
available all of Johann
Pachelbelâ??s surviving
vocal works in the best
possible form. It is
edited by the Institut
für Musikwissenschaft at
the University of
Erlangen-Nuremberg and
the Institut für
Kirchenmusik at the
Kunstuniversität
Graz.
Two
volumes per year are
planned.
As a
chronological order is
not possible in many
cases, the individual
works have been arranged
according to scoring
within their groups.
Fragments and works where
Johann Pachelbelâ??s
authorship is doubtful
appear at the end of the
respective group.
Each volume includes
an introduction (Ger/Eng)
and a Critical Commentary
(Ger). Format 25.5 x 32.5
cm; cloth-bound
