"in Ewigkeit dich loben” has now become a permanent fixture in the every-day repertoire of many church musicians. The editor’s four-volume concept has proven to be both handy and compelling. With its limitation to the main section of the new Evangelical Hymnal, however, many eager organists increasingly began to ask for preludes to beloved church hymns that are found in the various regional sections of the Hymnal, such as "Als ich bei meinen Schafen wacht”, "Freunde, dass der Mandelzweig” and "Herr, deine Liebe”. In this selection from the approximately 700 hymns of the regional section, the editor has included hymns which have a long history and are thus quite well known, but also certain hymns which are found in more than one regional section. The result is a stylistically varied palette of traditional pieces and newer, lesser known ones that should stimulate the imagination of every organist.weiterlesen
