The four-volume collection consists of new compositions, important rediscoveries of out-of-print-pieces, and some well-known chorale preludes which have been transposed into the Hymnbook’s new keys. By providing two or three preludes for each of the particularly well-loved and frequently used hymns, "in Ewigkeit dich loben” offers a rewarding, multifaceted treasury of pieces from the Renaissance to our day. In addition to its usefulness in the church service, the collection also gives the organ teacher a chance to explore a colourful diversity of styles with his students. Volume 1 has been awarded the German Music Edition Prize 1993.weiterlesen
