A fascinating new CD has just arrived here at FMR featuring the world premier of a cello concerto by Widor, coupled with the Lalo Cello Concerto. There is a fascinating story about the Widor concerto which has been re-constructed from fragments by the cellist Graham Du Plessis who is the soloist on the recording. Graham is based in Cape Town and is a Cello Lecturer at the South African College of Music and occasionally plays with our orchestra. Graham will be my guest on People of Note this week. Sunday at 6pm and again on Thursday at midday. Brought to you by PTP.

Let's start episode 707 of Secrets of Organ Playing Podcast. This question was sent by Fanie.  And she writes: Dear Vidas, I am an adult beginner, so I have different needs.1. What is your dream for organ playing? To play chorales in the church and play music which I love, like Bach, Buxtehude, Bohm, Franck, Mendelssohn, Guilmant, Vierne, Widor etc.2. What are 3 most important things that are holding you back from realizing your dream? I am not sure. Sometimes I am unsure if I actually get something right. Most recently, I started with a piece which was marked to be played articulated legato, and I had no idea what it was about. Eventually I got the info on your site.As of tomorrow, I will start with lessons, so it should be a bit easier.Regards, Fanie

In my first month in Japan, I was helping to lead worship on a pipe organ, when an older missionary came up and started to berate me. “You can't play that kind of music here. It's completely against everything we're trying to do for the Japanese church.” I was a bit shocked, but I could see his point. As Christians, we want to see the nations of the world worship God in their heart languages…their spoken language, but also their musical language and their cultural language. The music of Messiaen, Vierne, Widor, and all the other Western composers who've written for the organ are not part of their heart language…so, doesn't that mean I shouldn't play that music while church planting in Japan? I mean, what role do I have, someone trained in distinctly Western styles of music, in bringing the gospel to the people of Japan?

This question was sent by Steven, and he writes: “Vidas, Here are my responses to your questions. 1. What is your dream for organ playing? My dream is to improve my playing with the most effective way to practice and get the most out of my practice time. 2. What are 3 most important things that are holding you back from realising your dream? A. Effective practice and getting the most out of practice time. B. Better registrations for the music C. Being more confident in my playing Currently practicing Widor's Toccata from his 5th organ symphony and Vierne's Finale from 1st symphony and Carillon de Westminster. And these works of J.S. Bach: Toccata and Fugue in d minor BWV 565 Fugue in D BWV 532a Praeludium and Fugue in d minor BWV 549a The Gigue Fugue, BWV 577. Thank you for all you two do in assisting others to improve their playing skills at the organ. Steven”

Brian Gurley is the Director of Music and organist at St Paul Cathedral where he oversees the recital series which features Ahreum Han on Friday evening May 6 at St Paul playing the Beckerath organ. She and Brian joined Jim Cunningham to preview the event and the series. They both offer suggestions for how the organ can remain relevant in the world of flashing screens and electronics that compete for attention with Bach and Widor. Brian is back at home in Western pa having started his organ training at Grove City College then on to Notre Dame and University of Wisconsin and Ahreum relates her path from Korea to Curtis in Philadelphia, Westminster Choir College, Yale and now serving at First Presbyterian of Fort Worth Texas as Director of Music and Organist.

This question was sent by Joe, and he writes: “Vidas, Hope all is well with you. I am making much headway on Widor's Toccata, even though I have had limited time to practice. The score that I purchased from you certainly has helped expedite the learning process - MUCH THANKS! Since the score did not include registration suggestions, I was curious if you know of scores that do include registration. My organ has the following Stops:” Pedal Organ Diapason 16' Bourdon 16' Quintaten (Sw) 16' Octave 8' Gedackt 8' Choralbass 4' Mixture iii Posaune 16' Trompette (SW) 8' Swell Organ Quintaten 16' Gedackt 8' Violas II 8' Spitzprinzipal 4' Koppelflote 4' Nasat 2-2/3' Blockflote 2' Terz 1-3/5' Mixture III Basson 16' Trompette 8' Clairon 4' Great Organ Quintaten (Sw) 16' Principal 8' Rohrflote 8' Violas II (Sw) 8' Octave 4' Spitzflote 4' super Octave 2' Waldflote 2' Mixture IV Krummhorn 8' Vidas: He has three divisions: Pedal, Swell, and Great, and each has around 10 stops, maybe more. He writes further: “I also have a Floating Division that can be applied to Pedal, Swell, and Great. This includes over 100 stops but cannot be mixed (i.e. only one per Pedal, one for Swell, one for Great). Please let me know if you have any suggestions for registration based on my Stops List. If you believe something is missing that is critical, I may have it in my Floating Division. Your expertise would be greatly appreciated. Much Thanks, Joe Mark” Vidas: Here's what I wrote to him: “Thanks Joe! Unfortunately all Widor marks on the score is FFF, FF, F etc. As I haven't made a video of this piece I can't really demonstrate it for you right now. Since you have only 2 manual instrument, try to experiment with adding or omitting the reeds on both divisions one by one. FFF would be Tutti. FF would be without Clairon, F - without Basson, MF - without Trompette, PP - without Krummhorn. Manuals coupled. Pedals need to be reduced accordingly too. Hope this helps for now (until I prepare a proper video course). Vidas”

Louis Vierne (1870-1937) en Gustave Samazeuilh (1877-1967) zijn ook voor muziekkenners geen huishoudnamen. De eerste heeft vooral bekendheid verworven met zijn prachtige symfonische orgelwerken. De tweede was behalve componist een bekend criticus, die onder andere een monografie over zijn leraar Ernest Chausson heeft geschreven. In zijn eindexamenjaar bij Widor aan het conservatorium voltooide Vierne zijn […]

Oto 3 spośród moich ulubionych utworów organowych i prezentacja kompozycji.Charles-Marie Widor - Allegro z VI Symfonii g-moll (Świdnica - Kościół Pokoju)Marcel Dupre - Le Monde dans l'attende du Saveur (Świdnica - Katedra)J.S. Bach - Vater Unser in Himmelreich (Bardo - Bazylika)

Die Toccata der 5. Sinfonie ist als Hit in die Musikgeschichte eingegangen. Widor komponierte seine Orgelwerke in der Klanglichkeit von Orchestersinfonien.

This question was sent by Maureen. And she writes: Vidas and Ausra, My three dreams are these. I would love to be able to play Widor’s Toccata, Bach’s Prelude and Fugue in D minor and to be a very good organ player for Mass including the Mass music and hymns. Thank you, Maureen

This question was sent sent by John, and he writes: Dear Vidas, I'm lucky that a former pupil will be playing organ voluntaries for me (i) at Midnight Mass (Widor - Toccata) and (ii) at the Carol Service (Joie et clarite - Messiaen). He's just 17 and has won a place at Chetham's school of music in Manchester. I shall re-learn Dupre's Prelude and Fugue in B major in the New Year. I studied it during my student days, but as you know, it needs constant performance to keep it up to scratch. An enlightened wedding couple have asked me for Mullet's Carillon-Sortie later in the year. A project for 2019 will be to write some short pieces for manuals only as a homage to Vierne's 24 Pieces. I adore Vierne's music and think him a much better composer than Widor. I am at present writing a S. John Passion for a village choir to sing - simple chorus parts, but a good [tricky] evangelist solo line. I shall also learn later in 2019 Bach's "Komm Gott" fantasia, a piece I have never played and hopefully it will be ready for Pentecost. I'll send you the church Spring term's music list when it is finally drafted. Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year, John
