19th-Century Organ Music from Leipzig

Description

One will look in vain here for big names such as Mendelssohn and Schumann. After all, their complete organ works are already published by Breitkopf & Härtel. This volume offers a panorama of Leipzig as an "organ city" depicted by 28 different works. The Schneider brothers and, above all, C. F. Becker put their stamp on church music in Leipzig long before the Conservatory was founded. Later, the newly built organs of the Nikolaikirche and the Thomaskirche resounded with works from the romantic era, which brilliantly blended Baroque models and new expressiveness.
