Concerto For Organ Op. 68 (Score)

Organ or Mixed Choir or Orchestra-Unlike Handelâ??s other Organ concertos HWV 292 is not a transcription of a work for a different solo instrument but was conceived from the outset as part of the oratorio Athalia.Its fourth movement leads seamlessly into a Hallelujah chorus that was only later replaced by an Adagio ending for publication purposes. Thanks to the relative simplicity of the chorus our volume makes a useful addition to the material already published for this concerto (BA 8344).Original version of movement no. 4 from Organ Concerto HWV 292.Effective and easy to perform.For four-voice mixed chorus.

pour Grande Orgue-As one of the most prolific composers ever to have lived G.F. Handel's (1683-1759) catalogue is extensive. Moreover being an organist himself his Organ works are significant and remain ever-popular to this day. Handel's Organ Concertos remain some of his most popular and best loved works and so when French organist Marcel Dupré (1886-1971) compiled the series of Handel's Organ Concertos it was well-received and to this day remains popular with all organists. The second volume includes the seventh-twelfth concertos. In addition Dupré's annotations in theOrgan Concertos comprise fingerings and a detailed preface in French English and German. This compilation of Handel's most loved compositions for the Organ cannot be missed by aspiring performers of the instrument.

These Four Concertos Originally Scored For Organ With Woodwind Strings And Basso Continuo Have Been Transcribed For Solo Organ By Dr Colin Hand. As One Would Expect From Such A Master Of The Art Of Arrangement The Spirit AndSound Of The Original Scoring Is Retained By The Use Of Carefully Selected Registration. This Valuable Addition To The Repertoire Is Playable By Organists Of Moderate Ability.

The organ part and reduced score Symphony No. 4 - An Organ Symphony (2008) by Poul Ruders. Full score: WH31186 Orch. parts are available on hire: hire@ewh.dk Preface / Programme Note When introducing a large-scale symphonic work not only as a symphony but as an organ symphony it would be impossible not to think of and perhaps compare it with Camille Saint-Saëns’s famous SYMPHONY NO. 3 popularly known as the Organ Symphony. Well that is a risk I am prepared to take – and live with the consequences.Saint-Saëns however listed his work as a symphony avec/withorgan. The organ only appears in two out of the four sections of thepiece. In my symphony the instrument plays a far more significant part and is featured in all four movements. But it is not a concerto for organ and orchestra rather a symphony with organo obligato - a symphony with an organ part of a soloistic nature. So an Organ Symphony it is. The first movement PRELUDE is exactly that: a foreplay to what is in store for the rest of the symphony. It is slow (very slow!) and predominantly hushed: the organ and the orchestra wake up side-by-side getting to know one another.The second movement CORTÈGE is a slowly moving processional and it evokes extreme solemnity and austerity. Later on the music takes flight and the atmosphere lightens considerably a far more playful music emerging.This leads to the third movement ETUDE an exercise in instrumental virtuosity and technical challenge.The fourth and last movement is called CHACONNE but I could just as well have named it passacaglia (the definition of those two terms seems to blur even among the learned). Bearing in mind the last movement of Johannes Brahms´s SYMPHONY NO.4 which is universally agreed on as being a passacaglia I chose to avoid the Wrath of the Gods and opted for
