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.'.

Antoine Brumel (ca. 1460-ca. 1520) Um 1460 in den franzosischen Niederlanden geboren, wirkte Antoine Brumel 1483 als Vorsanger an der Kathedrale zu Chartres, spater in Laon. 1498-1500 war er Chormeister an Notre-Dame in Paris. Uber Lyon kam er 1505 als Nachfolger Josquins an den Hof Alfonsos I. von Ferrara und starb wahrscheinlich um 1520. Brumel gilt als einer der bedeutendsten ,,Niederlander der Josquin-Generation. Er schrieb uberwiegend Kirchenmusik: Messen (u.a. die 12stimmige Missa ,,Et ecce terrae motus, die noch 1570 in Munchen unter der Leitung Orlando di Lassos aufgefuhrt wurde), Motetten, Magnificat-Vertonungen und Bicinien, ferner einige Chansons. Brumel ist ein Meister des polyphonen Satzes; gelegentlich treten homophone Partien auf (Missa ,,Dringhs). Hans Buchner (1483-1538) Buchner wurde am 26. Oktober 1483 in Ravensburg (Wurttemberg) geboren. Bereits in jungen Jahren kam er nach Augsburg und Innsbruck, wo er Schuler Paul Hofhaimers war. In Wien lernte er in der kaiserlichen Hofkantorei wahrscheinlich Heinrich Isaac und Ludwig Senfl kennen. 1506 wurde Buchner Organist in Konstanz. Er starb im Jahre 1538. Von ihm sind zahlreiche Kompositionen (Orgelwerke, Motetten, Lieder, Tanze) erhalten. Buchners Hauptwerk ist das ,,Fundamentum, ein theoretisch-praktisches Lehrbuch der Orgelspielkunst. Es enthalt Anweisungen zur Improvisation, zum Orgelspiel und zur lntavolierung sowie 145 Orgelkompositionen. Heinrich Finck (1444/45-1527) Finck stammt wahrscheinlich aus Bamberg, wo er um 1444/45 geboren wurde. Uber sein Leben ist wenig bekannt. Er wirkte an der koniglich-polnischen Hofkapelle in Krakau und Warschau, war aber daneben viel auf Reisen. 1510 wurde er Kapellmeister am Hof des Herzogs von Wurttemberg, wirkte spater am erzbischoflichen Hof in Salzburg und erhielt im hohen Alter die Stelle des Hofkapellmeisters Ferdinands I. in Wien, wo er am 9. Juni 1527 starb. Von Heinrich Fincks Kompositionen ist nur ein kleiner Teil uberliefert. An erster Stelle sind seine deutschen Lieder zu nennen; ausserdem schrieb Finck Messen (Missa in summis) und Motetten. Der Komponist gilt als der erste deutsche Grossmeister der Musik. Seine Fruhwerke zeigen zum Teil noch eine karge Dreistimmigkeit mit harten Zusammenklangen; spater wird sein Satz vollklingender, wahrscheinlich unter dem Einfluss der ,,Niederlander (Isaac). Josquin Desprez (ca.1440-1521/24) Josquin ist der beruhmteste Meister seiner Epoche, die nach ihm als Joaquin-Zeit bezeichnet wird. Er wurde um 1440 wahrscheinlich in der Picardie geboren und soll Schuler Ockeghems gewesen sein. 1459-1472 war Josquin Sanger der Mailander Domkantorei, 1473-1479 Mitglied der Kapelle am Hof der Sforza in Mailand. 1486-1494 wird Josquin als Mitglied der papstlichen Sangerkapelle in Rom genannt. Seine Tatigkeit als Chordirektor am Dom zu Cambrai 1495-1499 ist urkundlich nicht gesichert. Er komponierte fur den Hof Konig Ludwigs XII. von Frankreich und fur den Hof der Este in Ferrara. 1502 wurde Josquin von Ercole I. als Kapellmeister nach Ferrara berufen, wo er bis zum Tode des Herzogs (1505) blieb. Sein Nachfolger wurde Brumel. Joaquin kehrte in seine Heimat zuruck und wurde zum Probst der Kirche Notre-Dame in Conde (Hennegau) ernannt. wo er am 27. August 1521 starb. Als Komponist gelangte Josquin bereits zu Lebzeiten zu europaischer Beruhmtheit. Sein Stil beeinflusste das gesamte musikalische Schaffen in Europa bis in die Palestrina-Zeit. Unter seinen Werken sind an erster Stelle die Messen zu nennen (darunter ,,L' homme arme, Missa sine nomine, sein Meisterwerk ,,La sol fa re mi, die zart-lyrische Messe ,,Ave maris stella, die Reprasentationsmesse ,,Hercules Dux Ferrariae und die Spatwerke ,,De beata virgine, ,,Pange lingua und ,,Da pacem); weiterhin schrieb er Motetten (u. a. ,,Stabat mater, ,,Miserere mei, ,,Memor esto verbi tui, ,,De profundis, ,,In exitu Israel, ,,Laudate pueri Dominum) und Chansons (die bekanntesten sind ,,Adieu mes amours, ,,Mille regretz und ,,J' ay bien cause). Josquin ist einer der genialsten Musiker aller Zeiten. Sein streng polyphoner Satz fuhrt konsequent den Stil Ockeghems weiter. Josquin erreicht in seinen Werken die hochste Meisterschaft im konstruktiv-imitatorische n Stil der ,,Niederlander. Gleichzeitig uberwindet er jedoch das nur Artistische dieser Kunst; sein subjektiv gefarbtes, von individuellem Ausdruckswillen bestimmtes Wort-Ton-Verhaltnis wird zum Ideal der Renaissancemusik. Josquins Kompositionslehre wurde 1552 von seinem Schuler Adrian Petit Coclico im ,,Compendium musicae aufgezeichnet. Heinrich Isaac (ca. 1450-1517) Isaac wurde kurz vor 1450 in den Niederlanden geboren. Er war wahrscheinlich Schuler Squarcialupis in Florenz und wirkte in Ferrara und am Hof Lorenzos de' Medici in Florenz. 1484 weilte er gleichzeitig mit Paul Hofhaimer in Innsbruck, war danach bis 1494 wieder in Florenz und wurde 1496 Hofkomponist Maximilians I. in Augsburg und Wien. Er unternahm zahlreiche Reisen (u.a. 1497-1500 an den Hof Friedrichs des Weisen nach Torgau, 1503-1505 zu Ercole I. nach Ferrara). Spater lebte Isaac in Konstanz, wo er sein Motettenwerk ,,Chorale Constantinum (1550 von seinem Schuler Ludwig Senfl herausgegeben) schuf; von 1514 bis zu seinem Tode 1517 lebte er wieder in Florenz. Isaac ist einer der vielseitigsten Musiker seiner Zeit. Er ist in allen musikalischen Nationalstilen sattelfest. Der Bogen seines Schaffens spannt sich vom Konstruktivismus der niederlandischen Polyphonie bis zur anmutigen Intimitat des schlichten Renaissance-Satzes. Isaac schrieb Messen (u. a. die beruhmte ,,Missa carminum), Motetten (,,Chorale Constantinum), Chorlieder und Chorsatze auf deutsche, franzosische und italienische Texte (sein Satz ,,Innsbruck, ich muss dich lassen wurde weltberuhmt) sowie Instrumentalsatze. Johannes Martini (1430/40-ca.1500) Der um 1430/40 in Flandern geborene Komponist wirkte 1474 neben Josquin und Compere an der Mailander Hofkapelle. 1475 wurde er Mitglied der Hofkapelle zu Ferrara, wo er noch 1492 tatig war. Sein Todesjahr ist unbekannt. Nach 1500 wird Martini nicht mehr in den Listen bekannter Komponisten gefuhrt. Von Martini sind Messen, Motetten und Chansons uberliefert, die stilistisch von Dufay und Ockeghem beeinflusst sind. Eine gewisse Erstarrung des Stils ist unverkennbar. Gregor Meyer (ca. 1510-1576) Meyer wurde um 1510 in Sackingen geboren und wirkte um 1535 bis 1558 als Organist in Solothurn, 1561 bis zu seinem Tode 1576 am Munster zu Basel. Auf Veranlassung Glareans schrieb Meyer fur dessen ,,Dodekachordon (1547) zahlreiche Kompositionsbeispiele; ausserdem sind in anderen Sammlungen einige Kanons, Motetten, einzelne Messsatze und kirchliche und weltliche Lieder erhalten. Jacob Obrecht (1450/51-1505) Als einziger der grossen ,,Niederlander stammt Obrecht aus dem nordniederlandischen Raum; er wurde wahrscheinlich am 22. November 1450 in Bergen op Zoom geboren. 1476-1478 war er Chormeister in Utrecht, 1479-1484 in seiner Heimatstadt. 1484/85 wirkte er als Kapellmeister an der Kathedrale in Cambrai und anschliessend in Brugge. 1487/88 besuchte Obrecht den Hof Ercoles I. von Ferrara. 1492 finden wir ihn als Chormeister an Notre-Dame zu Antwerpen, 1496 in Bergen op Zoom, 1498 in Brugge. 1500 schied er krankheitshalber aus dem Dienst und lebte bis 1504 in Antwerpen. Auf einer Reise nach Ferrara starb er im Jahre 1505 (angeblich an der Pest). Von Obrechts Kompositionen sind etwa 25 Messen (darunter ,,Maria zart, ,,L' homme arme, ,,Caput, ,,Je ne demande, ,,Fortuna desperata), Motetten und Chansons auf niederlandische, franzosische und italienische Texte uberliefert. Obrecht gehort mit Josquin, lsaac und Pierre de la Rue zu den Grossmeistern der Josquin-Zeit. Er setzt die Polyphonie Dufays und Ockeghems fort, doch spielen bei ihm die Durchimitation wie auch das bei Josquin stark ausgepragte Wort-Ton-Verhaltnis eine geringe Rolle. Obrechts Musik ist durch ihre vitale Kraft, Spontaneitat des Ausdrucks, klare Periodenbildung, den Hang zum vollen harmonischen Satz und ein neues Tonalitatsbewusstsein gekennzeichnet. Im Spatwerk ist der Einfluss des volkstumlichen italienischen Liedes festzustellen. Obrechte ausgepragter Penonalstil ist so unnachahmlich, dass er keine Fortsetzer fand. Nicht zu Unrecht wird Obrecht als der grosse ,,Aussenseiter zwischen den Perioden Dufay-Ockeghem und Josquin-Isaac bezeichnet. Marbrianus de Orto (ca. 1450-1529) Orto stammt moglicherweise ebenfalls aus Flandern; sein Geburtsjahr ist nicht bekannt. 1484-1494 war er gleichzeitig mit Josquin papstlicher Kapellsanger in Rom, spater (1505) am Hofe Philipps des Schonen von Burgund. Orto starb 1529 in Nivelles. Von ihm sind Messen, Motetten und Chansons erhalten. Vermutlich redigierte er wahrend seines romischen Aufenthaltes gemeinsam mit Josquin die Bearbeitung Duf'ayscher Hymnen. Ortos Messen reichen nicht an die Spitzenleistungen seiner Zeit (Josquin, Obrecht) heran; bedeutender sind seine Motetten, wie etwa die Motette ,,Ave Maria, die Petrucci 1501 an die Spitze seines ,,Odhecaton stellte, und die Vergil-Motette ,,Dulces exuviae.

Please note: this edition has nothing to do with Arnold Schoenberg! The Schonberg in question is a town near Kronberg in Germany’s hilly Taunus region. Romantic period. Score. 132 pages.

Please note: this edition has nothing to do with Arnold Schonberg! The Schonberg in question is a town near Kronberg in Germany's hilly Taunus region. Around the turn of the last century, the organist Ludwig Sauer (1861-1940) wanted to have a new organ built at his church there and came up with a novel way to finance it: he asked a number of composers to donate a musical piece. He eventually obtained 36 (!) pieces which he grouped together in the Organ Album for the Benefit of the New Organ in Schonberg by L. Sauer and had published in 1900 by Breitkopf & Hartel. Deserving particular mention is Max Reger's popular Introduction and Passacaglia in D minor, which was printed for the first time in that collection and which no doubt helped Sauer's project make organ history. The Schonberger Orgelalbum contains both free pieces and works based on chorales. Thanks to the brevity of the pieces, the book is ideal for use in teaching and in the religious service..

Pathetique. Composed by Enjott Schneider. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Organ Collection. Naturlich denkt man beim Titel Orgelsinfonie Nr. 9 Pathetique von Enjott Schneider an ein anderes Werk mit diesem Beinamen: an Tschaikowskys Sinfonie Nr. 6. Und das ist kein Zufall: Der Komponist sieht sein Orgelwerk als Hommage an diese grosse Schwester. Composed 2009. 52 pages. Schott Music #ED20670. Published by Schott Music (HL.49018084).

One of the first things that comes to one's mind when reading the title of Organ Symphony No. 9 'Pathetique' by Enjott Schneider is another work with this epithet: Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6. And that is no coincidence: The composer regards his organ work as an homage to this 'elder sister'. While Tchaikovsky, in a secret programme, made out his own life to be a struggle and long ordeal to the point of his suspected suicide, Enjott Schneider presents those hours as the ultimate tale of woe in which Jesus had well and truly become human, fatefully bearing the pain and misery of all people. 'Gethsemane', 'Geiselung: Ecce homo', 'Golgatha' and 'Grablegung': Maria Magdalena' are the names of the stages and movements. The Greek word 'pathos' means 'strong emotion, feeling, passion or suffering' - in Schneider's Organ Symphony No. 9, this comes true, musically, in his inner conflict, struggle, wrestling with his fate, cruelty of the crucifixion and deathly silence.

This collection of eighteen choral arrangements of melodies from the Protestant hymnbook is meant to be used in services and little concerts. Rather varied with regard to the compositional approach of the individual arrangements, the collection, like a kind of informative selection, shows the different possibilities of how to deal delightfully with a tonal melody in post-modern pluralism. The stylistic patterns presented can be easily abstracted and transferred to other chorales for the purpose of improvisation.

Language: all languages.

The Concerto for organ, strings and percussion by Kay Johannsen, Kantor of the Stiftskirche in Stuttgart, is a valuable addition to the repertoire for organ and orchestra. It is a work composed to appeal to both performer and audience alike - with thrilling rhythmic sections as well as moments of great intimacy. The organ part, for a three manual instrument if possible, is shown to its best advantage in many and varied tonal colors, ranging from the most delicate solo registrations to powerful forte. The organ writing is demanding, but well within the capabilities of experienced organists. Precise registration suggestions are contained in the score. The string orchestra (minimum 4/4/3/3/1) is scored with sophistication, with solos for all instruments. The percussion is for two players - a part for timpani and one for other, readily available percussion instruments. By avoiding the use of wind and brass instruments, the work can also be performed where the tuning of the organ is not ideally suited to modern orchestral pitch. Score and part available separately - see item CA.1808500.

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.

ISBN 9790007298456.

As well as 20 organ sonatas and seven collections of stand-alone organ pieces with opus numbers, Rheinberger composed a whole range of smaller works for organ methods or organ collections for his favorite instrument, mainly at the request of colleagues and friends. They are ideally suited for mass and organ lessons.

This organ volume brings together twelve compositions Rheinberger wrote for different occasions and at various points during his career. Included in the collection are seven short pieces in different keys that date from the early 1860s. Rheinberger wrote these at the request of his teacher Herzog and others for several organ collections of “easy, performable” pieces – and they are rewarding pieces for liturgical use. The works without opus numbers (WoO 10, 37, 56, 70) can no longer be regarded as early works. The Fugue in F minor WoO 10 of 1867, with its tendency to translate counterpoint into expressive chordal writing, already displays many characteristics of the late Rheinberger, the Canzonetta WoO 77 is a late work from autumn 1899, whereas the Romanze WoO 70 is a second version of no. 1 of the Miscellaneen op. 174 in the easier to play key of C major.

Composed by Leopold Hofmann. Edited by Guido Erdmann. Music from Vienna. Sacred vocal music, Mourning, death. Choral Score. Composed nach 1790. 4 pages. Duration 4 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 27.705/05. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.2770505).

ISBN 9790007166595. Text language: Latin.

Man that is born of woman hath but a short time to live is one of the central biblical texts dealing with the transitoriness of human existence. Leopold Hofmann, Kapellmeister at St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna from 1772 to 1793, where W. A. Mozart was his church music assistant, also set this strongly expressive text. Hofmann's setting, in C minor, offers an austere harmony, characterized by suspensions in a homophonic, through-composed four-part vocal setting (soloists or SATB choir), reinforced only by two trombones and organ continuo. Four concise instrumental transitional passages between the individual verses relieve the pathos laden Viennese church style of this composition. With its tragic air, in some passages it closely resembles Mozart's Requiem K. 626. For this first edition, the two trombone parts are available both in the original clef and in alto clef. The figured bass has been realized so that the piece can also be performed without trombones, with only organ accompaniment. For a performance this piece could easily be combined with the Salve Regina by Pietro Cassati (Carus 27.703) from the Vienna series. Score available separately - see item CA.2770500.

Choral Preludes. Composed by Hermann Schroeder. Edited by Peter Alexander Stadtmueller and Raimund Keusen. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Organ Collection. Hermann Schroeder (1904-84) is one of the most important German composers of 20th-century Catholic church and organ music. This volume for the first time contains the most important chorale arrangements for the organ. Composed 1948. 68 pages. Duration 15'. Schott Music #ED20183. Published by Schott Music (HL.49017948).

ISBN 9790001147439. UPC: 884088585631. 9.0x12.0x0.314 inches.

Hermann Schroeder's abundant oeuvre in the field of chorale-bound organ music is much less known among organists than his free - especially the concertante - organ works, although Hermann Schroeder as an organist felt particularly bound to liturgy and liturgical singing. And according to him, any liturgical organ music should always bear a direct relation to singing. The purpose of the present anthology is to provide the player a representative selection of Schroeder's chorale arrangements. Most of these chorales are relatively short and of medium difficulty at most. The chorale melody can be heard well most of the time so that the pieces are ideal for being used in church services. In the alphabetical index, the beginnings of song titles are accompanied by the corresponding number from Gotteslob (GL) or the Protestant Hymnal for better orientation.

Composed by Jan Rybarski. PWM. Classical. Softcover. 32 pages. Duration 960 seconds. Polskie Wydawnictwo Muzyczne #11700010. Published by Polskie Wydawnictwo Muzyczne (HL.253940).

Jan Rybarskis Fantasia for Organ is a work of a great emotional impact. Its romantic dramaturgy leads the listener into the state of deep reflections. The work is monumental; its structure resembles a one-part sonata with a fugue in the middle fragment. The arrangement requires organs with minimum 16-18 voices in two manuals. Despite fast passages and at times complicated harmony that require a lot of practice, the work is played with comfort. The author, as an organist-practitioner, uses difficult technical elements that he controls in a perfect manner. The proportion of the traditional and modern harmonics is ideal, which means it perfectly corresponds to the dramaturgy of the work. The main formative element is the rhythm that - as the author claims himself - inspires, opens both the performer and the listener to the experience. The structure of the Fantasia brings connotations to the course of a human life, with a film story that apparently is different for everyone, but conveys one truth common to all people: in order to overcome difficulties, you need to trust God.

For Organ (1923). Composed by Bela Bartok. EMB. Classical, Hungarian. Softcover. 40 pages. Editio Musica Budapest #Z20104. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (HL.50605486).

Bela Bartok composed Dance Suite in 1923 for the 50th anniversary of the foundation of Hungary's capital through the unification of Buda, Obuda, and Pest. It soon became one of his most popular orchestral works, and in 1925 he arranged it for piano solo. Adam Tabajdi completed the organ version of Dance Suite in 2019/20, and recorded it on the Kern organ of Sapporo's Kitara Concert Hall later that year. His transcription was inspired by the composer's own version for piano, exploiting the alternative solutions offered by the ''orchestral'' timbres of the organ, with its manuals and pedals. The ideal instrument for the present version is an expansive, eclectic style organ with at least three manuals. This flamboyant arrangement requires great virtuosity, stamina, and creativity from the performer. Adam Tabajdi (b. 1993) is an outstanding young Hungarian organist. Alongside the music of J. S. Bach, his repertoire includes Liszt,and Franck, as well as twentieth-century works, with a special focus on Messiaen, Ligeti, and Florentz. He is a committed performer of contemporary music, but he also feels a close connection with the works of old masters such as Sweelinck, Weckmann, and Couperin. In 2021 he won first prize in the Toulouse International Organ Competition, and in 2022 he was awarded the Junior Prima Award.
