The Reformation Symphony was composed in 1830 for the 300th anniversary of the Confessio Augustana, the founding of the Lutheran confession of faith. In the fourth movement, Mendelssohn quotes, elaborates and varies artfully the Luther-chorale Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott [God is our fortress], erecting a musical monument to the reformer Martin Luther. After an initial confl icting reception, the Reformation Symphony meanwhile is established fi rmly in the concert repertoire. EB 8058 is intended for performances with organ. It can also be used for the preparation of the chorus and soloists for performances with orchestra.

SKU: PL.9510

Composed by Alan MacMillan. Chant, Christmas, General. Sheet music. Paraclete Press #9510. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9510).

Based on the antiphon for the Burial Office, this moving work is chant-like in character. While the inner parts are scored with cluster chords in a gentle undulating rhythm, the chant tune is passed between the manuals and the pedals. The composer includes a triumphant middle section, and concludes with the unadorned chant line. In Paradisum appropriately retains the solemnity of a funeral, and is also suitable for a concert performance.

Composer 's Note:

In writing these pieces I had in mind certain difficulties which worry most organists from time to time; and in order to combine, as it were, business with pleasure I thought it worthwhile to concentrate upon one aspect of organ technique in each piece, even at the risk of making them a little more difficult than others in this series.

In Procession the main difficulty lies in the pedals Arabesque, on the other hand could hardly have had a simpler pedal part: its object is to exercise the left hand in producing a smooth, running semi-quaver pattern Pageant with its cross-rhythms, is designed to produce well-disciplinedhands and feet that can, when required, work in conflicting rhythms.

I have kept the registration schemes as simple and straightforward as possible.

ISBN 9790550114487.

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.

ISBN 9781491136416. UPC: 680160689095. Key: Eb major.

A CHRISTMAS VIGIL is the second of two Hailstork organ works composed as variations on the British hymn tune Dundee. The present work begins with a carillon-like ostinato on the hymn’s opening phrase, which returns joyously toward the end of the composition. While the hymn itself is not specific to Nativity, the composer gave this work a Christmas title due to its bell-like cheer.
A CHRISTMAS VIGIL is based on a larger single-movement piece written for the First Presbyterian Church of Virginia Beach, Virginia. That earlier work, A Dundee Fantasy, was commissioned to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the church. That major concert piece, based on the hymn tune Dundee, was premiered by Alan Morrison.Several small units left over from drafts of A Dundee Fantasee suggested Christmas to me because of the carillon-style ostinato at the beginning that returns grandly at the end. The joyous momentum throughout the whole composition makes this vigil suitable for a Christmas Season concert.

Char les Villiers Stanford was an Irish composer, music teacher, and conductor. Stanford composed a substantial number of concert works, including seven symphonies, but his best-remembered pieces are his choral works for church performance, chiefly composed in the Anglican tradition. Admitted to Queens College, Cambridge with an Organ scholarship Stanford had written a substantial number of compositions, including vocal music, both sacred and secular, and orchestral works before getting involved with the university's Musical Society. While still an undergraduate, Stanford was appointed organist of Trinity College, Cambridge.

Part of the'Four Intermezzi Op. 189' Intermezzo On An Irish Air for Organ is based on the melody of the well-known 'Londonderry Air'. The traditional Irish tune was first collected in the mid 19th century by Jane Ross, and is recognised all around the world by the Irish Diaspora. Duration ca. 6:20.

Will iam Ringham has created a book of festive and ceremonial pieces ideal for worship, concerts, and celebratory events.

SKU: PL.9830

Composed by Peter Pindar Stearns. Lent. Sheet music. Paraclete Press #9830. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9830).

Antiphon on Magnificat for Maundy Thursday, Antiphon on Magnificat for Good Friday, Antiphon on Magnificat for Holy SaturdayThis major work for organ is dedicated to the memory of the beloved church musician Sam Batt Owens, and certainly reflects his warmth of personality. The chants are developed in a subtle manner throughout the three parts and the phrases are elegant. A good legato technique will be required in the hands, while the pedal parts are only moderately difficult. Stearns gives plenty of opportunity for varied colors in these movements, and the harmonies are derived from the chant in a most satisfying way. This Triptych would also be appropriate for concert use.

Hymn preludes and choral arrangements by Bendt Fabricus (2018). Foreword: This small collection of preludes and choral arrangements is a selection of movements, created through more than 30 years of work as an organist in the Danish National Church. The collectionis first and foremost intended as a useful work tool for all my colleagues around the Danish organ benches. There are movements thatare suitable for the small one-manual organ in the village church and others that are intended for the concert organ in the large city church. Some movements are easy to follow, even with a simple and traditionally constructed structure, while others, both harmonious and rhythmic, offer greater complexity and degree of difficulty. Virtually all the kits composed for two manuals and pedal can also be realized on organs that have only one manual and pedal. As far as registration instructions are concerned, my statements are only intended as a guide to the sonorous expression in a given movement, as of course everyone is free to find exactly the registration that is deemed appropriate on the instrument in question. It is my wish that all organists can benefit fromthe collection and that it will prove to be a useful and beneficial supplement in the daily work. Bendt Fabricius.

Composed by Richard Elfyn Jones. Concert, General. Sheet music. Paraclete Press #0023. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.0023).

This contemplative piece could well be used as a companion to the composers' Allegro Giocoso. A lovely, pastoral melody is accompanied by slowly moving tone clusters. The two are combined in the central section to enrich the texture, and the piece concludes with the opening material. The quiet ensemble and solo colors of the organ would be most beautifully exploited here, while the writing lies comfortably under the fingers and feet. This could be used as a prelude or as a contemplative work in concert.

For Organ. Composed by Carson Cooman. Keyboard, Organ. Score. Zimbel Press #80101413. Published by Zimbel Press (SU.80101413).

Two Mantras (2017) are dedicated to Felix Brauer. A mantra is a repeated word or phrase, often chanted or sung in the manner of a prayer. These two organ pieces explore the concept musically, each extensively employing repeated patterns: both direct repetition and repetition with small variation. Meditation (In paradisum) is very quiet and extremely serene. Floating harmonies in the hands gradually shift while a slow line in the pedal slowly descends. Postludium (Deo gratias) sets up a perpetual motion toccata through which the harmonies change and are repeated. Instrumentation: Organ Duration: 10' Composed: 2017 Published by: Zimbel Press.

Organ - Easy/Medium

SKU: PL.9621

Composed by Leslie Betteridge. General. Sheet music. Paraclete Press #9621. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9621).

This delightful piece, for manuals only, displays the playful side of Leslie Betteridge's musical personality. The outer sections are scherzo-like, while the chordal middle section remains related to the opening material in its syncopated rhythms and its use of similar motives. The flavor of the work is decidedly French in the lightness of its character and English Romantic in its harmony. This work would serve beautifully as a concert encore or as service music.
