20th-Century Trumpet & Organ KARG-ELERT: Erste Sinfonishe Kanzone PETR EBEN: Okna (Windows) LANGLAIS: Sept Chorals HENRI TOMASI: Semaine sainte a cuzco GERHARD DEUTSCHMANN: Introductino & Allegro SCHILLING:Canona on Christ ist erstnden Windows - Okna - Fenster A window by any other name . . . Taking its title from Eben’s famous work for trumpet and organ (inspired by 12 stained-glass windows of Marc Chagall’s creation), this CD explores other riches composed in the 20th century for this favorite combination of instruments. The little-known Karg-Elert piece is worth the price of admission (and there is more organ than trumpet in this work, perhaps explaining its obscurity)! Great sound and interesting music. Martin Sander plays the very well matched 1983 Sandtner organ in the Münster at Villingen, Germany. $15.98 |

by Petr Eben JOB for Organ The composer writes of his reasons for composing this 8-movement work, one hour in duration, “The Book of Job interested me for three reasons: firstly because of the social and theological revolution it represented in its time; until then every poor, sick or unfortunate being was regarded as forsaken and punished by God. Secondly, I was deeply impressed by the dramatic depth of this Book, which gives men once and for all the key to overcome a trial of faith. Finally, I find this book extremely topical. It answers one of the most difficult questions on life asked to this day: why do good people suffer misfortunes?” A narrator introduces each movement with a brief reading from the Book of Job. Thomás Thon plays a large 3m Rieger-Kloss organ.$16.98 |
