The
organ is the instrument
on which the young
Giacomo Puccini began his
career as a musician.
Through the rediscovery
of a considerable number
of hand-written pieces,
which he composed after
1870 as part of his
duties as organist in the
churches of Lucca,
several primary sources
are now available. These
give an insight into the
beginnings of his musical
activities which have
only been known about
from anecdotes from his
first biographers until
now. Puccini's organ
repertoire includes works
which were typical for
liturgical organ music at
that time: sonatas for
the main sections of the
mass, versets which were
substituted for Gregorian
chant, marches, which
were played after the
mass (exceptionally even
waltzes), and even a
pastorale for Christmas
time. This music was
written with the sound of
instruments made in
Tuscany in mind. These
have just one manual, a 8
foot Principale register
and a small pedalboard
always coupled to the
manual. In addition there
were several solo stops
divided into bass and
soprano.Puccini
contributed with
originality to the
renewal of Italian organ
practice, which began in
his day to discard its
operatic style in favor
of a style more suited to
the liturgy.

Uuno
Klami (1900-1961) was
born in Virolahti and
studied in Helsinki,
Paris and Vienna. While
living in the capital
city Helsinki, he always
spent his summers in the
original homestead in
Virolahti. Klami is
most known for his
colourful orchestral
works, but works for
piano frame the different
times of the composer's
life nicely. The piano
works are so joyous that
transcribing from for
organ is firmly based.
Surumarssi
(Trauermarsch) Op. 8 was
composed when Klami was
16 years old, most likely
in memory of his late
mother. Pastoral A-flat
major was composed in
December 1919; I find it
contains the feeling of
Christmas. Barcarole Op.
5 is a French-influenced
work. I often find myself
thinking of a boat
bobbing on waves, while I
play this work. I
believe these organ
transcriptions bring many
joyful moments in
concerts as well as in
other congregational use.
And not only that: they
can be used as pedagogic
material as well.
