This two-volume collection of selected organ music by European masters aims to provide an overview of how organ composition developed from the Renaissance to the late Baroque period. While the first volume contains compositions from the Renaissance to the mid-Baroque period, the second volume continues from there to the late Baroque period. It was during this period that highly significant organ compositions were written, some of which were still based on the early Baroque style and often went unnoticed. The selection of works, intended for practical use, includes both free and chorale-based compositions. Where the compositions in this volume are notated in two systems, they are played manualiter. Content: 1. Heinrich Isaac, Canzona " La Martinella " 2. Arnold Schlick, Maria zart 3. Arnold Schlick, Salve Regina 4. Hans Kotter, Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir 5. Luzzasco Luzzaschi, Toccata del 4to tuono 6. Wolfgang Carl Briegel, Fuga tertii toni 7. Bernardo Pasquini, Pastorale 8. Johann Christoph Bach, Praeludium und Fuge in Es 9. Johann Friedrich Alberti, Te Deum laudamus ( Herr Gott, dich loben wir ) 10. Johann Michael Bach, Wenn mein Stündlein vorhanden ist

Johann Kuhnau, Toccata und Fuge in A 2. Johann Caspar Ferdinand Fischer, Der Tag, der ist so freudenreich ( Ricercar pro Festis Natalitys super Initium Cantilenae ) 3.

From the Visby (Petri) Organ Tablature First publication Berendt Petri, the first owner of the tablature and colleague of Jacob Praetorius, completed the transcription in Freiburg an der Elbe in 1611. Sometime before 1630, the manuscript came into the possession of Johan(n) Bahr, who, after moving to Visby (Gotland, Sweden), wrote his own compositions on the pages left blank by Petri. The manuscript is now in the possession of the ‘Landesarchivet’ in Visby. The significance of the tablature lies primarily in the fact that it is the only source of organ music composed in Hamburg at the beginning of the 17th century. The compositions in this edition represent approximately one third of the content of the ‘ Visby (Petri) Organ Tablature ’.

Johann Sebastian Bach probably composed the six trio sonatas BWV 525-530 ‘á 2 Claviers e Pedal’ between 1727 and 1729 for his eldest son Wilhelm Friedemann, although individual pieces date back to earlier years (1722-1723). These are undoubtedly organ sonatas, whose three independent voices combine to create an extremely charming musical work of art . The aim of this arrangement of the first trio sonata was to make this beautiful work accessible to recorder players. Lambertus Johannes Drop transposed the trio sonata from its original key of E flat major to F major.

During his lifetime, Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel (1690–1749) was regarded as one of the most important and best-known German musicians. As court conductor of the Duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg, he was widely admired and played a key role in Gotha's rise to a centre of music. After his death, Stölzel left behind a tremendous compositional work, primarily operas, cantatas and chamber music. With the exception of the trio sonatas presented here, Stölzel did not appear as a composer for the organ. Content: 1. Trio Sonata in C major 2. Trio Sonata in F minor 3. Trio Sonata in B flat major 4. Trio Sonata in B flat major Includes revision report

Johann Ludwig Krebs was born in Buttelstedt in 1713. He received his first organ and music lessons from his father, Tobias Krebs. At the age of 13, he moved to Leipzig, where he remained in close proximity to Johann Sebastian Bach until 1737 – this made him into a ‘true Bach creature’. His education at St Thomas' School, his studies at Leipzig University and his organ and composition lessons with Bach had a decisive influence on Krebs and made him an accomplished and independent composer. While studying philosophy and law at Leipzig University, Krebs taught Luise Adelgunde Victoria Gottsched, the wife of the well-known writer Johann Christoph Gottsched, composition and probably also lute playing. He dedicated six Praeambula to her. After serving as organist in Zwickau and Zeitz, Krebs was appointed ducal court organist at the castle church in Altenburg in 1756. He remained there until his death on 1 January 1780. Krebs left behind an extensive musical oeuvre – primarily for organ , but also remarkable chamber music compositions. Content: 1. Piece Praeambulum I - VI 2. Piece Suite 3. Piece Overture 4. Piece Concerto including revision report
