Composed by Johannes Brahms. Arranged by Steve Stanfill. 19th Century,Classical,Religious. Individual part. 3 pages. Steve Stanfill #973524. Published by Steve Stanfill (A0.1389961).This is an organ transcription of the Brahms Op. 122, No 6 chorale prelude, "O Wie selig seid ihr doch, ihr Frommen", This beautifully complex organ prelude is part of a collection of chorale preludes penned by Johannes Brahms in the summer of 1896, just after the death of his dear friend, Clara Schumann. About this same time Brahms learned that he had pancreatic cancer, which would prove fatal less than a year later. These pieces are complex, profound musical statements that contemplate eternity--a capstone, if you will, of Brahms life as a man and as a musician.
This piece, No. 6 of the 11 published posthumously in 1902, is presented here transcribed for easier performance than URTEXT versions of the piece, primarily by shifting voicing to facilitate easier reading in several measures, as well as providing a discrete pedal line, again, to facilitate performance.
The suggested registration is made to utilize a melody coupler (found on many modern digital instruments) to emphasize the chorale melody rather than create a discrete solo line.
