33 Chorale Settings Instrument : organ Nombre de Pages : 128 These volumes contain chorale settings by Heinrich Scheidemann (c. 1595-1663). Scheidemann studied with Sweelinck in Amsterdam 1611-1614 and worked as organist at the church of St Katherine in Hamburg for a good three and a half decades from 1629. The new edition contains two additional new works, the chorale fantasias 'Allein zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ' and 'Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott'. They were initially ascribed to Franz Tunder, but, based on the most recent style-critical research, have to be ascribed to Heinrich Scheidemann.

Heinrich Scheidemann is regarded as one of the most influential organists of the 17th century. His most significant achievement lies within his further developing of his teacher J. P. Sweelinck's chorale arrangements into a wide-ranging chorale fantasia primarily to display in full the organ's sound. The present volume constitutes a complete edition of all nine Chorale Fantasias based on Lutheran chorales that, except for one, are extant as individual works. The authenticity of six fantasias is considered certain, with the attribution of the three anonymously transmitted works being based on the source situation and style. The repertoire as a whole provides an insight into the progressive development of the chorale fantasia and concurrently represents Scheidemann's three main creative phases.
