Advent & Christmas for Organ
Noel Jones
See LOOK INSIDE for the list of pieces and composers, including Titelouze, Malingreau, Collin, Buxtehude and Lefébure-Wely.
Wonderful pieces reflecting the Contemplation of Advent and the Glory of Christmas.
Almost all may be used throughout the year, only a few will be recognized as being "Christmas" music.
Typically we include a list of suggested registrations.
Many of these pieces being from early times, the composer played them on whatever stops they had on their organ quite possibly the size of the one you are playing and we suggest the same to you. You will find that certain stops on your organ have a certain sound that matches them to these pieces
Pieces up to the time of Bach and earlier were played on organs without an expression pedal. So moving from manual to manual was done to give variety to the sounds of the organ.
Early pieces have simple suggested registrations that we suggest. Later pieces in this collection have the original stop registrations suggested by the composer and expres- sion markings as well.
To match organ stops you have with these suggested on the music that you may be unfamiliar with, visit www.organstops.org
All the music is arranged by season and is alphabetical within the season.
There is a good mix of music for Manuals Only and Manuals with Pedals in this book.
It contains many short pieces and pieces made up of short sections, making it especially useful when playing at Mass.
