Composing works in almost every genre - opera and music for the stage orchestral music concertos choral works chamber music organ and piano music and songs - he created a prominent position for himself in international musical life.

Therefore for the first time a complete edition of his works suitable for both the performer and the scholar will now be published organised according to critical scholarly principles.The Collected Works of Carl Nielsen comprises both publisher and as yet unpublished compositions.

Pachelbel was one of the great organ masters of the generation before J.S. Bach. Unsurprisingly interest in his music has remained constant and today he is widely considered one of the greatest and indisputably one of the most productive composers of all time. This new collection assembles a rich selection of the composer's organ works including 72 chorale settings and 48 nonliturgical works among them toccatas fugues preludes ricercares and fantasias. Reprinted here from the authoritative Breitkopf and Hartel edition edited by Max Seiffert these venerable compositions will be welcomed by organists at every level of accomplishment. Today's keyboard artist shouldnote that many of these works do not require a pedal and can be played on the piano or harpsichord as well as the organ.

Under the title of 'Kleinere Werke' [Small Works] the second volume of Organ works by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach in the Wiener Urtext Edition contains all works written by the composer except for the multi-movement sonatas for Organ: preludes fugues trio chorale arrangements and pieces for musical clock. The fugues in particular prove that C. Ph. E. Bach was an attentive pupil of his father. The music theoretician Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg appreciated these fugues so much that he included some of them as examples in his theoretical writings. The pieces for musical clock are a varied selection of pieces in the style galant which were originallywritten for mechanical instruments and which are best to be performed on the organ. Together with the Organ sonatas published in Vol. 1 this is probably the most comprehensive collection of works by Bach's second eldest son which can be performed on the Organ.

Edward MacDowell can be regarded as the first great American composer although he disliked the idea of being classified as any sort of musical nationalist. He composed a large number of orchestral works but it is the charming and unpretentious suite of musical miniatures Woodland Sketches that has survived as his best-known work with To a Wild Rose being the most popular.

Bach: Complete Organ Works Vol. 6 Clavierübung III / Schübler-Choräle / Canonische Veränderungen über 'Vom Himmel hoch' - ed. by Werner Breig Bach Organ Works Printed During the Composer's Lifetime Volume 6 contains the chorale-related organ works that Bach personally had printed: the Dritte Theil der Clavier Übung was published (for organists) in 1739; the Sechs Choräle von verschiedener Art (Schübler-Choräle) and the Canonische Veränderungen were released in separate editions most likely in 1747/48. None of these collections had from the start the appearance which the composer considered as valid in the end. For this reason, Werner Breig focuses in particular on questions of origin in his introduction. Fundamental findings on the genesis of the Clavier Übung III were made only after the publication of the work in the Neue Bach-Ausgabe. The basically unproblematic state of the sources means that this volume contains no CD-ROM with supplementary materials. It was, however, considered editorially necessary to print the Canonische Veränderungen BWV 769 in three versions: as a facsimile of the original print, in a practical arrangement, and in the autograph version (BWV 769a).
