Completing the Orgelb眉chlein
As The Orgelb眉chlein Project nears its completion, organist William Whitehead joins the 大象传媒 Singers in a concert at St Peter's Eaton Square in London.
The 大象传媒 Singers and conductor Robert Quinney are joined by organist William Whitehead for a concert as part of The Orgelb眉chlein Project - a major composition project to complete J S Bach's Orgelb眉chlein (Little Organ Book).
The manuscript of Orgelb眉chlein has 118 missing pieces, ghostly gaps with only the title penned by Bach. Each of these gaps is being filled by a new composition based on Bach鈥檚 intended melody. The new pieces, written by the most interesting composers at work today, survey a range of modern styles.
William Whitehead plays the organ of St Peter's Church, on Eaton Square in London, in settings from The Orgelb眉chlein Project by Simon Johnson, David Coonan, Franz Tunder, Ullrich Boehme, Daniel Deilschmidt and Ruth Byrchmore
The 大象传媒 Singers will sing the chorales below, interspersed between the organ chorale preludes:
