Description
Volume 8. Larger free organ works Volume 3 (Ped.)
This third volume of large, free organ works by Johann Georg Herzog impressively shows how Herzog was able to combine compositional inventiveness, technical richness and musical sophistication in his more extensive organ works. He uses strict contrapuntal forms as well as the freer fantasy and prelude. With the two large (church) sonatas that conclude the volume, Herzog shows his impressively balanced, almost spiritual-contemplative side. Works by a practitioner for practitioners – and always of high artistic value!
Contents: Fugue with two subjects – Fantasy – Prelude and fugue in free style (op. 65,12) Sonata (op. 46,1) – Sonata (op. 62,7).
