Liszt composed only a small number of works for the organ, but among them are two of the most impressive works in the instrument’s repertoire. These works are contained on this CD, performed on an organ that has a direct link to Liszt. In 1855 his pupil Alexander Winterberger played the Fantasia and Fugue ‘Ad nos, ad salutarum undam’ which Liszt had dedicated to Meyerbeer on the Friederich Ladegast organ at Merseburg Cathedral. The organ in Schwerin is almost identical to the instrument at Merseburg. The other major work Liszt composed for organ is the Prelude and Fugue on the name BACH. This was dedicated to Winterberger. The Fantasia and Fugue is a huge work lasting over half an hour, with a brilliant fantasia on a theme from Meyerbeer’s ‘La Prophete’. The meditative adagio is shattered by a violent fortissimo which leads into the fugue, and the heroic conclusion. The Prelude and Fugue on BACH also opens brilliantly with the four notes that make up the name Bach undergoing endless ingenious variations. The fugue begins with a strange section where tonality is suspended for a time, with the four note ‘name’ appearing as an ostinato under staccato chords. The variations on ‘Weinen, Klagen’ from Bach’s Cantata no 12 was written for piano in 1860, and is remarkable for its use of chromaticism - again, tonality is under great strain.

B A C H by Liszt was the inspiration for me to play the organ - I did numerous improvisations on that theme over the decades.

I'm glad that KZbin always recommends your videos to me. Liszt's organ works were already on my list to listen to sooner or later, but I forgot about them, so this comes at the right time!

Good morning from Mumbai, India. Brilliant classics many thanks for uploading these organ works of the composer Franz Liszt. I love listening to all the instrumental masterworks of Franz Liszt specially his Hungarian rhapsodies. I also have a special love for his sacred works, namely via crucis and his sacred oratorio namely CHRISTUS. Christus is a magnificent sacred masterwork composed by Franz Liszt. It is sung in Latin I believe and a few years back there was a German sacred chorale group that specialized in singing CHRISTUS year after year. Thanks again for sharing these organ works of Franz Liszt with us poor mortals. Eustace D'Sa

Wunderschöne und tiefempfundene Interpretation dieser drei perfekt komponierten Orgelwerke im gut analysierten Tempo mit durchsichtigen doch warmherzigen Tönen der historischen Orgel und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich intelligenter und genialer Organist!

I love organ music. Brilliant!

Thank you so much! For those of you from the United States: in German notation the notes go: C, D, E, F, G, A, H (rather than B). And B is what is B-flat in the US. So, BACH (B-A-C-H) is B-flat, A, C, B.

well he did spend his last years in the church as an abbe

Did Wagner, after his affair with and marriage to Cosima, know that his father-in-law dedicated 40:08 to Meyerbeer? 😰

[@michaelletellier218]

Liszt was a prime mover, central to the development of Romanticism and "programme music". He was a good friend of Meyerbeer, as was Wagner. Indeed Liszt transcribed several of Meyerbeer's opera and orchestral scores for the piano.
