St Asaph Toccata was commissioned by Symphony Hall Birmingham as part of the Bach to the Future Series. The composer writes: 'The original title for the piece was Toccata Machine as I had an image of the gigantic Symphony Hall organ as some kind of mad machine uncontrollably spewing out manic toccata figuration. Except for a short oasis of calm two-thirds of the way through the piece is very loud and has millions of notes in it. The eventual title refers to the street in South London where I live rather than the Welsh Saint Asaph'.

JS Bach’s Choral prelude for Organ Wachet Auf has become a favourite of wedding couples for processional or recessional music because of its joyous liveliness and beauty. The cantata Wachet Auf BWV 140 contains a Biblical warning to be alert for the arrival of salvation but Bach seems to have chosen to wake his sleepers with delightful sounds.The arranger Charles Macpherson was an Organist at St Paul’s Cathedral in London and a professor of composition at the Royal Academy of Music. He has made his interpolations clear by the use of brackets.

The first classical Organ method for children the Suzuki Organ School is based on Dr. Shinichi Suzuki's Mother Tongue Method. The Suzuki Method® of Talent Education is based on Suzuki's view that every child is born with ability and that people are the product of their environment. According to Suzuki a world-renowned violinist and teacher the greatest joy an adult can know comes from developing a child's potential so he/she can express all that is harmonious and best in human beings. Each series of books for a particular instrument in the Suzuki Method is considered a Suzuki music school such as the Suzuki Organ School. The student listens to the recordings and work with their Suzuki organ teacher to develop their potential as a musician and as a person.This Suzuki Book & CD is essential for Suzuki Organ lessons. In certain pieces the authors have placed small phonetic signs above the notes to indicate differentiated non legato playing. In order to develop pedal technique pedal melodies are included between every manual piece. The included performance CD for Volume 1 is a great tool for Suzuki Organ lessons encouraging practice while featuring recordings by Lars Hagström.Titles: 'A Little Fairytale' (Rönnberg) 'Allegretto' (Czerny) 'Amaryllis' (Ghys) 'Chant Arabe' (Anonymous) 'Cuckoo' (German Folk Song) 'Go Tell Aunt Rhody' (Folk Song) 'Gossip Tune' (German Folk Song) 'Herdsman's Song' (Danish Folk Song) 'Hippopotamus' (Rönnberg) 'Hot Dog' (English Folk Song) 'Lightly Row' (German Folk Song) 'Little Playmates' (Chwatal) 'Little Snail' (Traditional) 'London Bridge' (English Folk Song) 'Lullaby' (German Folk Song) 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' (Folk Song) 'My School Day' (Folk Song) 'Paris' (French Folk Song) 'Piglet' (G.

'Toccata Chromatica' (sous-titré 'Echoes of Sweelinck') a été composée spécialement par l'organe 1671 Pieter Backer dans le Bonifaciuskerk (Eglise Saint-Boniface) à Medemblik, Pays-Bas, à l'esprit. La pièce exploite deux caractéristiques de cet instrument historique:(1) Arrêt de la Trompette 8 ', qui ne s'étend pas au-dessous du do central, et(2) l'absence de pédale arrête - les pédales fonctionnent entièrement en pull-downs de la Hoofdwerk, et ils prennent le rôle de premier plan mélodique au début et à la fin des aigus arrêts.Un autre lien entre Chromatica Toccata et le Bonifaciuskerk est que le grand organiste et compositeur néerlandais Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck (1562-1621) était marié là-bas, de sorte Wammes annonce a fondé sa pièce sur Sweelinck Fantasia Chromatica.Une étude de doigté historique conduit Wammes à donner phrasé un rôle important dans son oeuvre en combinant des phrases de deux ou trois notes, de trois et de cinq notes, et de cinq à huit notes. Il a également intégré l'effet d'écho, fréquemment utilisé par Sweelinck, le plus d'écho étant une double croche, la plus longue d'écho étant deux bars.L'édition comprend la note compositeur et système d'enregistrement pour l'orgue Pieter Backer en anglais, en allemand et en français.'Toccata Chromatica' a d'abord été enregistrée par Minako Tsukatani sur le CD 'wispering partie Vents 2' (SPBO-09-01, Stichting Pieter Backer Orgel). / Orgue

The Four Quiet Voluntaries include a sprightly allegretto a lyrical air a lilting pastorale and variation and a theme on an Irish air. They fall within the abilities of moderately accomplished musicians.Eric Thiman was a 20th century composer teacher and Organist who was also an advocate of amateur music-making. He was a prolific composer of church music and Piano and Organ works and his craftsmanship and gift for melody were much admired. He was director of music at the City Temple in London. As an educator he was a professor at the Royal Academy of Music and he wrote many books on harmony counterpoint and musical form.

Handel wrote three sets of organ concertos with this work a grand Poposo coming from his third set which were first published in London after the composer's death.

The composer’s craftsmanship is evident in this sarabande-like arrangement of Crimond the tune the Anglican church often uses for ‘The Lord’s My Shepherd’. Eric H.

Premier enregistrement des oeuvres pour orgue du compositeur ayant vu le jour entre 2002 et 2004. Ecrits pour des instruments d'esthétiques fort différentes (italienne, baroque allemande et symphonique), ces trois cycles ont été composés consécutivement à des séjours ardennais du compositeur. C'est donc tout légitimement que cet enregistrement se place sous le signe de cette région, mettant exclusivement en valeur certains instruments des Ardennes: l'orgue WESTENFELDER de l'église de Membre, petit village des Ardennes belges, l'orgue KOENIG de la basilique Notre-Dame d'espérance de Mézières, l'orgue KoeNIG de l'église St léger de Sedan. / Orgue

Coronation Anthem for Mixed Choir and Orchestra-Zadok The Priest HWV 258 (BA10258) and The King Shall Rejoice HWV 260 (BA10259) are the best-known of the four coronation anthems that Handel wrote for the crowning of George II in London (1727). HWV 258 accompanied the king’s anointment HWV 260 his actual coronation. Thanks to their festive and majestic structure befitting the occasion as well as their spacious scoring for Large Choir and Orchestra it comes as no surprise that motifs from Zadok the priest have found their way into the official hymn of the UEFA Champions League. The present editions by the authoritative Handel scholar Stephan Blaut are the first to offerthese two anthems based on the Urtext from the Halle Handel Edition.

 Ecrite en 2013, cette symphonie justifie son nom à la fois par l'ampleur de ses proportions, par les perspectives sonores ouvertes dans chacune de ses parties, et surtout par l'unité fondamentale qui la domine, En effet elle repose essentiellement sur une cellule thématique dont les notes évoquent le nom d'Albert Schweitzer (dans le système de notation germanique), Tour à tour énergique et enthousiaste, mystérieuse et voilée, grandiose et visionnaire, la musique, caractérisée par une harmonie très libre et une écriture très concentrée, se veut une affirmation passionnée de la suprématie de l'Esprit, / Orgue
