This is the first book-length survey of twentieth-century British music for solo organ. Beginning with a discussion of British organ music in the last decades of the Victorian era, the book focuses on composers' works, musical styles, and possible influences on specific compositions. Arranged in chronological order according to birth date are detailed studies on important composers who made especially significant contributions to organ music, including Hubert Parry, Charles Stanford, Healey Willan, Herbert Howells, Percy Whitlock, Francis Jackson, Peter Racine Fricker, Arthur Wills, and Kenneth Leighton. Composers' biographies, the role of organs and organ-building developments, influential political and sociological events, and aesthetic aspects of British musical life are examined. The concluding chapter covers the major phases and achievements of the century and gauges what might lie ahead in the new millennium.

"This selective critical survey of organ literature from Hofhaimer and Paumann to the present day is a useful guide both for the organist seeking repertoire and for the listener looking for brief analyses of organ works encountered in recitals or on record. It has been a standard work in Germany for more than a generation, appearing in five editions. It is now translated into English for the first time. Organists in the English-speaking countries will find the author's continental perspective of particular interest, as he treats fully many significant composers--Hermann Grabner, Willy Burkhard, Günter Raphael, and Joseph Ahrens are only a few examples--whose works are frequently performed in Germany yet remain almost unknown in America and England. This guide may therefore suggest a largely unexplored realm of music written for the classically-oriented instrument that awaits the adventurous organist. The chronological survey of composers treats all of the standard repertoire by familiar composers, and includes as well some works by composers too little known: Johann Ernst Eberlin and Bohuslav Cernohorsky in the 18th century and Gustav Merkel in the 19th are examples. This edition includes addenda on British and American organ music by the well-known American organist Lee Garrett, expanding the scope of Lukas's work. Musical examples show principal themes of selected works, and publishers are listed for each composer."--Dust jacket.

Joseph Jongen was Director of the Brussels Conservatoire from 1925 to 1939. He was first and foremost a composer and yet his career as an organist and composer of organ music was remarkable. His Sonata Ero�ca has become one of the enduring works of the repertory, and the Symphonie Concertante, commissioned by Rodman Wanamaker for the organ of the Philadelphia store, has been considered the finest of all twentieth-century organ concertos. This is the first book ever to appear about Joseph Jongen in any language. It is based on twenty years of research by its author, John Scott Whiteley. Part I traces Jongen's life and achievements as an organist,from his earliest training in Franck's birthplace, Li�ge, to his exile in England and his final years in Brussels, during which time he headed the team that designed the organ for Belgian Radio. Part II is a guide to the organ music from the points of view of both performer and musicologist. Appendices provide a catalogue of works, a numbering system for his works without opus numbers, specifications of the organs he played and lists of variant readings in his manuscripts. This book is indispensable for serious students of the organ, the Romantic organ repertoire and European music of the early twentieth century.

Influenced by Robert and Clara Schumann and Joseph Joachim, Johannes Brahms not only learned to play the organ at the beginning of his career, but also wrote significant compositions for the instrument as a result of his early counterpoint study. He composed for the organ only sporadically or as part of larger choral and instrumental works in his subsequent career. During the final year of his life, however, he returned to pure organ composition with a set of chorale preludes--though many of these are thought to have been revisions of earlier works. Today, the organ works of Johannes Brahms are recognized as beautifully-crafted compositions by church and concert organists across the world and have become a much-cherished component of the repertoire. Until now, however, most scholarly accounts of Brahms's life and work treat his works for the organ as a minor footnote in his development as a composer. Precisely because the collection of organ works is not extensive, the pieces--composed at different times during Brahms's lifetime--help to map his path as a composer, pinpointing various stages in his artistic development. In this volume, Barbara Owen offers the first in-depth study of this corpus, considering Brahms's organ works in relation to his background, methods, and overall artistic development, his contacts with organs and organists, the influence of his predecessors and contemporaries, and analyses of each specific work and its place in Brahms's career. Her expert history and analysis of Brahms's individual organ works and their interpretation also investigates contemporary practices relative to the performance of these pieces. The book's three valuable appendices present a guide to editions of Brahms's organ works, a discussion of the organ in Brahms's world that highlights some organs the composer would have heard, and a listing of the organ transcriptions of Brahms's work. Blending unique insights into composition and performance practice, this book will be read eagerly by performers, students, and scholars of the organ, Brahms, and the music of the Nineteenth Century.
