Purcell Album / Purcell - Orgue

Henry Purcell a passé presque la moitié de sa vie comme organiste de l'abbaye de Westminster, mais étonnamment écrit la musique d'orgue très peu de lui-même. Bryan Hesford a rectifié cela avec ce volume de morceaux arrangés et transcribedform d'autres sources. Les morceaux ont été choisis en vue d'initier les étudiants à une partie indépendante de jeu à un niveau technique un peu plus simple que celle de JS Bach. / Orgue / niveau : Elémentaire / Recueil

The pedals can be used at the player's discretion. Composers such as Purcell Handel Charpentier Chauvet and Franck all appear in this edition which boasts music spanning 200 years and more.

Selected from Musica Britannica Volume 69. Edited by Barry Cooper.This collection of sixteen pieces by John Blow (1649-1708) taken from the complete organ music published in Volume 69 of Musica Britannica is an authoritative introduction to the work of the leading Restoration English composer of organ music. More organ music from this period is ascribed to Blow than to all his English contemporaries put together including Henry Purcell. In compiling this anthology the editor has incorporated both the best examples from the corpus and those that were most popular in the composer's lifetime while illustrating the variety of styles he used. Most of the pieces may be played ona single manual but there are also 'double voluntaries' (for two manuals) and 'cornet voluntaries' (for two or three manuals). The collection includes advice on ornamentation and a comprehensive editorial note.
