An organ recital in progress: part 96

Dear SMM Community,
 

The next part of my online organ recital is here, and I hope that you enjoy it. I offer up these musical meditations as part of our parish efforts to find ways to keep you connected at this time. Recorded on my house organ, the instrument is a musical facsimile of the great 'Father' Willis organ at Salisbury Cathedral.

Today, I present Sigfrid Karg-Elert's Clair de lune.


Sigfrid Karg-Elert (1877-1933) was born as Siegfried Theodor Karg at Oberndorf am Neckar in Germany. Though somewhat popular during his lifetime, his music drifted into obscurity after his death until a revival of interest in the 1970’s. The second of Trois impressions, Clair de lune was first published in 1909.



With best wishes,
Andrew Adair

An organ recital in progress: part 95

Dear SMM Community,
 

The next part of my online organ recital is here, and I hope that you enjoy it. I offer up these musical meditations as part of our parish efforts to find ways to keep you connected at this time. Recorded on my house organ, the instrument is a musical facsimile of the great 'Father' Willis organ at Salisbury Cathedral.

Today, I present Johann Sebastian Bach's Allegro: Concerto in D minor.


Johann Sebastian Bach’s (1685-1750) Allegro is the opening movement of his Concerto in D minor BWV 1052. The first of Bach’s harpsichord concertos, the earliest surviving manuscript dates from 1734. Originally for harpsichord and Baroque orchestra (two violins, viola, cello, and continuo), Marcel Dupré transcribed the work for solo organ as used in this performance.
