Description
Two character pieces for Lent (Ped.) Edited by Andreas Rockstroh
Two romantic mood pictures for the Passion: Oskar Wermann structures his composition along the Seven Words of Jesus on the Cross (which can be performed by a medium singing voice as an alternative to the solo manual), while Friedrich Ernst Koch quotes the Passion Chorale “Da Jesu an dem Kreuze steht” in his work. Two impressive musical contributions to the Passion devotion or the Passion concert! Contents: Oskar Wermann (1840-1906): Good Friday and Golgatha. Fantasy piece for organ op. 94 Friedrich Ernst Koch (1862-1927): Gethsemane. Lamento for organ op. 44. “Two works with different diction with the same theme. Grateful pieces of medium difficulty for Passion devotions and concerts. Recommended!” [Church music in the Diocese of Trier 1/2005]
