Organ Works, Volume I: Clavierubung, Part 3 ("Organ Mass")


Book Description

Of all instruments of musical expression Bach preferred the organ. At the time when he was employed as court organist and chamber musician to Duke Wilhelm Ernst in Weimar, Bach had to perform on the organ a great deal. He prepared a repertory for those performances which includes some of his greatest works as for instance: Fantasia & Fugue in G minor (The Great) Passacaglia in C minor, Prelude and Fugue in C Minor, 8 Little Preludes & Fugues and the wonderful Orgelbuechlein. Most of his organ works date from around 1708 to 1717, through the “Little” fugue in G minor was composed in 1700. This volume contains various Choral Preludes and a composition called 4 Duets. A “Duet” really means 2 part music, and not music for Clavier 4 hands.

Bach Perspectives, Volume 7


Book Description

J. S. Bach's creativity is so overwhelming his compositions in some genres eclipse his work in others. His glorious choral works, profound organ compositions, and exquisite solo compositions for violin and cello attract the most attention. Volume Seven of Bach Perspectives restores Bach's concertos to their rightful place of honor. Gregory Butler focuses on Bach's Concerto for Harpsichord and Strings in E Major (BWV 1053) as a pastiche created by a process of assemblage of three earlier heterogeneous movements. Pieter Dirksen delves into the source history of the Concerto for Harpsichord and Strings in F Minor (BWV 1056) and concludes it represents a transcription of an earlier violin concerto in G minor. David Schulenberg investigates the generic ambiguity of the concerto in the early eighteenth century and how it diverged from the sonata to become a distinct genre. Completing the volume is Christoph Wolff's examination of the ""Siciliano"" as a slow movement in Bach's concertos and its implications for the source history of his Concerto for Harpsichord and Strings in E Major (BWV 1053).
