Orgelschule zur historischen Aufführungspraxis: Grundzüge des Orgelspiels unter Berücksichtigung zeitgenössischer Quellen / Orgel und Orgelspiel in der Romantik von Mendelssohn bis Reger und Widor

The 2nd Part of the organ school on historical performance practice continues part one. He treats the interpretation of organ music in Germany and France in the period from 1800 to 1930. With the romantic composition style, a turn came from the differentiated non-legato of the Baroque and the classic to the basic legato. In addition, between 1830 and 1845, the first truly "romantic" organs were created, which opened up completely new sound perspectives thanks to the ingenious sound sense of their builders (mainly Walckers and Cavaillé-Colls) organists and composers. Laukvik's organ school is now a standard work. It addresses organists who wish to integrate latest findings of historical performance practice into their work interpretation. She wants to help the organist to implement the expertise regained by science to historical performance practice for organ playing valid today. The three volumes give a practical introduction to the hand in a detailed and easy-to-understand form by giving the player the most accurate picture of the interpretive habits and goals of past time. The editions are aimed not only at organists, but also at organ teachers who are looking for a guide for their lessons.
