Description
The present collection of forty five CHORAL PRELUDES OF OLD MASTERS (CHORALVORSPIELE ALTER MEISTER), presented in three volumes, may well serve as an introduction to those of Johann Sebastian Bach, since it demonstrates that the forms which Bach used actually emerged in the course of the seventeenth century. Although Bach's great genius outstrips his predecessors in the use of these forms, the organ music of the seventeenth century is well worth examination in its own right. In comparison with the works of the post-Bach period, which have enjoyed long popularity, it shows up to enormous advantage. This collection will have served its purpose if its stimulates the organist to explore the rich material afforded by that earlier period. Works in volume 1: Alberti: Der du bist drei Einigkeit; 2. Anonymous: Ach Gott, vom Himmel sieh darein; 3. Johann Bernhard Bach: Du Friedefürst, Herr Jesu Christ; 4. Johann Michael Bach: Von Gott will ich nicht lassen; 5. Wilhelm Friedemann Bach: Durch Adams Fall ist ganz verderbt; 6. Wilhelm Friedemann Bach: Was mein Gott will, das gescheh allzeit; 7. Wilhelm Friedemann Bach: Wir danken dir, Herr Jesu Christ; 8. Böhm: Allein gott in der Höh sei Ehr; 9. Böhm: Auf meinen lieben Gott; 10. Böhm: Herr, wie du willst, so schick's mit mir (actually: Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir ); 11. Buttstett: Vom Himmel kam der Engel Schar; 12. Buxtehude: Christ unser Herr zum Jordan kam, BuxWV 180; 13. Buxtehude: Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern, BuxWV 223.
