Hermann
Schroeder (1904-1984)
ranks among the major
German organ composers of
the 20th century, being
an excellent organist
himself. Many of his more
than 100 organ works deal
with themes of the
Gregorian chorale. The
chorale's modal
diatonicism which is
freer and different than
the later major-minor
tonality establishes a
perfect symbiosis with
the free tonality of the
contemporary composer. In
the five-movement chorale
partita, the more than
1,000 years old
Mixolydian Whitsun
Sequence of Hrabanus
Maurus (9th century) is
used in an imaginative
and formally varied way:
as a virtuoso toccata, in
the second movement
'ostinato' as a strict
trio setting over a
seven-bar ostinato in the
pedal, as a capriciously
playful 'bicinium', and
as a meditative,
harmonically appealing
'arioso'. The fifth
movement (fantasia
ricercare) displays
brilliant full-handed
chords and virtuoso
passages as well as a
fugato in the middle
section. A rewarding
concert piece for
Whitsun, with an
excellent possibility of
virtuoso interpretation
and colourful
registration.

Josef
Gabriel Rheinberger
dedicated his 9th Organ
Sonata (composed in May
1885) to Alexandre
Guilmant, the
indefatigable
concertizing virtuoso who
had already given the
first Paris performance
of Rheinberger's 1st
Organ Concerto (in F
major, op. 137). With
opulent harmonies,
conspicuously frequent
tempo changes, and chords
which are a true delight
when played on a
Cavaille-Coll organ, the
rhapsodic Fantasie at the
beginning of the 3rd
movement certainly lives
up to its name. The
separate edition is taken
from the Rheinberger
Complete Edition.

The
three movements that make
up Nocturnes, Book I are
programmatic pieces that
take as their points of
departure a painting, the
rhythms of a great city,
and a poem. 1. The Starry
Night is a written down
improvisation based on
Vincent van Goghs famous
picture of the same name.
The tonal material is a
quite literal
transformation of the
visual elements of the
painting: the melismatic
cadenzas mirror van Goghs
swirling starlight, and
the powerful chords were
suggested by the sinister
trees that shoot upward
to puncture the skys
patterns. 2. Stovers Rag
is a product of the
ragtime revival of the
early 1970s, when many
composers tried their
hand at writing concert
rags. The New York night,
which was not without its
sinister element in those
days, is expressed in an
updating of the classic
ragtime format. The piece
looks backward as well,
with the old French
Baroque basse de
trompette making an
appearance in the trio
section. 3. The Song of
Shadows taps the
nostalgic mood typical of
the poetry of Walter de
la Mare. The poem of the
same name pictures a lone
musician on a winter
night, an dog sleeping
before a sinking fire,
and, at the end, the
spirits that are summoned
by music. The opening
melody, played on an 8
flute with tremulant,
suggests the blues-tinged
sound of an alto
saxophone, and throughout
the movement the organs
capacity for sustained
tone is used to suggest
and atmosphere of dreamy
timelessness. The pieces
were written in 1971 and
first performed on July
2, 1972 at the National
Shrine of the Immaculate
Conception in Washington,
DC, with the composer at
the console.

Chen Yi
describes her dramatic
study in the
organ’s
sonorities: “From
the bronze drum set on
topof the totem pole, I
imagine that our
ancestors played the
powerful low percussion
instrument,to unify the
rhythm in their group
dance; from the delicate
and magical decorations
carved onthe drum and the
pole, I imagine that the
beauty of the totem poles
is presented in
multilayerswith various
timbres from different
manuals (keyboards) and
pedals, and the ineffable
universe isharmonized in
the powerful and
brilliant grand chords
fully sounded from the
organ.†The

TOTEM POLES
wascommissioned by the
American Guild of
Organists for its 2018
biennial national
convention. The
primitive power and the
spiritual mysteries of
the ancient totem poles
are permeated into the
rich palette, and brought
out from the sonic giant,
the solo organ.From the

Six
studies, Op. 5 is a set
of studies for Organ by
Jeanne Demessieux, with a
preface by Marcel Dupre.
For upper-intermediate
and above players, these
studies were conceived to
help the progression of
the player, to enable
them to acquire the
necessary skills and to
maintain their high
level. Each study focuses
on a special aspect and
uses both hands and feet

These
variations are based on
the choral Freu dich
sehr, o meine Seele.
Variation I, Maestoso,
presents a solemn,
canonic statement of the
theme enveloped by dense,
closely-knit harmonies.
Variation II, Allegro, is
clothed in polyphonic
lines reminiscentof
Bach's Orgelbuchlein
chorales. Variation III,
Vivace, is a playful
bicinium with the cantus
firmus featured in the
soprano line, as the bass
bounces along in a
staccato duet. Variation
IV, Adagio, displays rich
chromatic harmonies which
form a lush backdrop for
the pedal solo. Variation
V, Vivace, features the
chorale in detached left
hand notes while the
right hand and pedal
provide a playful
accompaniment. In
Variation VI, Andante,
the melody vacillates
between minor and major
keys as syncopated left
hand chords and pizzicato
bass accompany the
cantilena. In the
concluding Variation VII,
Presto, the left hand
proclaims the theme in
block chords as the right
hand provides an
exuberant garland of
sixteenth notes while the
pedal provides rhythmic
drive with tympanic
accents.

Jona
than Harvey
(1939-2012) was a British
composer who studied at
St Johns, Cambridge and
Princeton, and who later
taught at various
universities and
conservatoires across
Europe and North America.
His psychedelic work
Laus Deo
has become a brilliant
showcase for 20th century
Organ music. Commissioned
by Simon Preston in 1969,
it was supposedly
inspired by a dream in
which an angel played the
main themes to him on an
Organ: Harvey
said he finished the
piece within 12 hours of
waking from the dream. It
has since become known
for its ear-piercing
dissonances and exciting
cluster chords.
Written for
upper-advanced organ
players, Three Preludes
and Fugues is a work by
Marcel Dupre. Dedicated
to Rene Vierne, this Op.
7 uses complex
figurations and pedals.
With such challenging
difficulty, the first and
third preludes were
pronounced?unplayable by
Charles-Marie Widor due
to their fast tempo,
their figurations and the
pedal chords. For a long
time, Dupre himself was
the only one able to play
them. Marcel Dupre is a
French organist who
reviewed some works by J.
S. Bach, including The
little Organ Book. He
composed numerous pieces
such as Lamento, Scherzo
and Titelooze Tombstone,
among others.

way to the melody played
on the solo Great. A

in a minor key on the
