Exposition of Organ Styles Flor Peeters (1903- ): Aria Peeters was the director of the Antwerp conservatory and composer of many liturgical and organ works. Gordon Young (1919- ): Baroque Suite: Plein Jeu, Marche
Petite, Aria, Toccata This suite was written for the American virtuoso organist Virgil Fox. It is arguably Young's best work and is useful in demonstrating the full range of the effects of the organ. Often recorded, a fascinating version is available on the 1857 instrument in the Oude Kerk in Delft played by Feike Asma. St Scholastica's David McIntosh: Organ Johann Pachelbel (1653-1706): Aria in a moll mit sechs
Variationen ("Aria Quinta" aus dem "Hexachordum Apollinis") Johann Pachelbel was a German organist and composer, father of Wilhelm, Johann occupied the post of organist at Altdorf, Ratisbon, Vienna, Eisenach, Erfurt, Stuttgart and Gotha before being appointed to St. Sebaldus Church at Nuremberg in 1695. His importance in the history of music is due to the fact that he was one of the spiritual ancestors of Bach. Moneta Eagles (Dec 1989 Melbourne): Lullaby for Anthea The first performance was given by Susan Heath, on 29 April 1990, Wesminster Abbey, London. The work was specially composed for Susan and Andrew Downey's first child born 10 August 1989.

St Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179): O Viridissima Virga O Viridissima Virga (O Greenest Branch) O Greenest branch, hail, When the time has come For within you the beautiful flower Whence the heavens have rained dew Thereupon a feast was prepared for Mankind St Hildegard von Bingen was born of a noble family. She joined the Benedictine community in 1116 and became Abbess in 1136. She was a medical doctor, pharmacist, playwright, poet, painter, musician and visionary, and was the grandmother of the Rhineland mystics. In the same league as Dam Julian of Norwich and St Francis of Assissi, she had an ecological view of the world based on micr/macro cosmic psychology. She dictated "Scivias" between 1141 and 1151 consisting of 3 books of 26 visions including the vices of the world and enigmatic prophecies of disaster. She was canonised in the 15th century. Dr Graeme Rawson: Organ Most of the following pieces were chosen with the romantic nature of this organ in mind. As it contains a high proportion of 8' (unison pitch) stops it is unsuited to music requiring great clarity of texture such as fugues and other sprightly contrapuntal works. Gordon Young (1919 - ) Passacaglia for E. Power Biggs,
Trumpet Tune Young was born in Kansas and studied with Joseph Bonnet, the organist of St. Eustache in Paris. A prolific organ and choral composer, his music is essentially 'popular' drawing on tunes ' in the air' for thematic material. Jan Pieter Sweelinck (1562-1621): Ballo del granduca Sweelinck is undoubtedly the most important Dutch composer. As his pupils included most of the famous organists of the North German School of the seventh century, his influence on Bach and Handel can be traced. Louis Vierne (1870-1937): Berceuse Appointed organist of Notre Dame Cathedral in 1900, he died at its console during his 1,750th recital. His music is melodically imaginative, elegant, full of harmonic detail and reflects a profound mysticism. He was arch-priest of the French romantic symphonic school. This gentle piece is dedicated to his daughter Collette. José Lidon 91752-1825): Sonata for Trompetta
real Lidon was organist of the Chapel Royal in Madrid and the piece is written for the most powerful horizontal stop on the Spanish organ. Anon. (C17th): Gallharda de 1° tom Found in the municipal library of Porto, this could be a decadent or evolutionary form of the 16th century Galliard (dance). Antonio Valente (c1520-1580): La Romanesca This piece was composed in Naples in 1576 and is influenced by a popular Spanish song of the period. Naples at this time belonged to the Spanish crown. P. Antonio Soler (1729-1783): Concierto III para instrumentos
de tecla Soler was a Spanish composer, monk of the Order of St.
Jerome and organist and choir-master to the royal monastery at the Escorial.
He was a pupil of Domenico Scarlatti. The organ in the chapel of the Convent of the Good Samaritan, St Scholastica's, Glebe, was designed by Revd. Fr. Stephen Moreno, O. S. B., New Norcia, Western Australia, who ordered the pipes, stops, etc and came personally to see it. Hill, Norman and Beard were the builders. Dom Moreno had completed his musical studies in Germany under Walter Braunfels (a former student of Brahms and Bruckner).
