Description
2nd installment (Ped.) Volume 13 of the series “Organ music from England and America”
Stainer belongs to the educated class of English (late) Romantics; his elegant and dignified style contributed to the enormous popularity of his works, which continues to this day. The “Twelve Organ Pieces”, which have long been out of print, are typically English character pieces that can be used in a variety of ways in church services and concerts.
Contents: Andante pathétique – Praeludium pastorale – A Church Prelude – Introduction and Fughetta – Fantasia – Finale alla Marcia. “Another successful edition of English organ music from Butz-Verlag:
The 12 pieces of medium length and difficulty offer an insight into the work of the organist at St. Paul’s, who was born in London in 1840. Clear influences from Spohr and Mendelssohn can be found in his compositions. A good repertoire extension.” [Church music in the diocese of Essen 1/2005]
