Masters of the North German Organ School, Vol. 32

Composer: Georg Bohm
Editor: Claudia Schumacher
Format: Book

3 Praeludia and 20 Chorale Settings

Georg Bohm, born in Hohenkirchen near Erfurt in 1661, died in Luneburg in 1733, is one of the great masters of the North German Organ School. His works are very popular, and rightly so, and have become permanent fixtures in organ concerts and church services.

This edition contains three preludes and 20 choral arrangements and follows exactly the original text as well as the current state of organological research. The works, recorded in the so-called 'letter tablature', have been carefully transcribed into modern notation so that the original articulation and rhythm notation remain unchanged. Thus, the edition provides the player with all information needed for a responsible historical performance practice. An important publication for all organists and organ teachers!
