Hermann Schroeder (1904-1984) studied with Heinrich Lemacher and Walter Braunfels and became Professor of Composition and Music Theory at the Academy of Music in Cologne. From the end of the 1920s he made an important contribution to the new stylistic developments in organ music His smaller-scale compositions in particular, such as the Preambles and Interludes (1954) or the Little Preludes and Intermezzos (1932, ED 2221) point in new directions: the constraints of form have evidently been helpful in the process of breaking away from Romanticism; clarity and formal precision take the place of monumental grandeur of form. Suitable for concert or liturgical performance.
