In Ewigkeit dich loben has now become a permanent fixture in the every-day repertoire of many church musicians. The editor's four-volume concept has proven to be both handy and compelling. With its limitation to the main section of the new Evangelical Hymnal, however, many eager organists increasingly began to ask for preludes to beloved church hymns that are found in the various regional sections of the Hymnal, such as Als ich bei meinen Schafen wacht, Freunde, dass der Mandelzweig and Herr, deine Liebe. In this selection from the approximately 700 hymns of the regional section, the editor has included hymns which have a long history and are thus quite well known, but also certain hymns which are found in more than one regional section. The result is a stylistically varied palette of traditional pieces and newer, lesser known ones that should stimulate the imagination of every organist.in Ewigkeit dich loben features preludes for all the hymns contained in the new Protestant Hymnbook (Evangelisches Gesangbuch, EG)..

An indispensable collection for professional and non-professional church musicians! After the successful first volume of chorale preludes on the seasonal hymns from Advent to Whitsun, published on the anniversary of the new lectionary of the Evangelical Church in Germany, Volume 2 now follows with preludes on the hymns from Trinity to the end of the church year. With this two-volume edition, editor Ingo Bredenbach has created an indispensable collection with chorale preludes for the two seasonal hymns for all Sundays and the most important feast days. The volumes provide organists with a complete, innovative and varied selection of chorale preludes. Over a third of the c. 160 chorale preludes have been newly composed, and the others have been chosen partly from little-known collections from the 18th to the 20th century. Many hymns were considered for which there have been no chorale preludes to date, or none which are suitable. With all the arrangements, there is an option for shortening the piece to provide a suitable intonation. The difficulty level of the pieces is structured so that non-professional organists can learn the works within a week, whilst professional church musicians can play from this new collection with less time needed. Thanks to the variety of styles included, the collection can also be used in organ teaching. Both the volumes contain indices, including one to enable the use of the preludes with other hymns in the Evangelisches Gesangbuch.
