Description: | The "Allegro con spirito in B-flat Major" is the third and final piece of "Three Pieces for Organ."
It is a rousing "Elgar-like" work that strides along in 3/4 time with januty chords over a rolling bass line. The middle section breaks down to being an agitated and almost sinister like movement with a lot of descending chromatics. The figuration against the "theme" is first given in triplets, and then in sixteenths. Certainly, this is the hardest section to play, as it's not quite "organ like" in the layout of the parts.
The first section returns, and this leads to a dominant pedal with the left hand playing a chromatic scale on the Solo Tuba, while the right hand brings it the final arresting passages.
In listening to the playback, I don't like the sound of the Choir "chorus." The closeness of the pipework makes the sound "dominate" a lot, and the pitch and character of the Mixture really aren't the right sound for music like this! Fortunately, I had the Swell open enough so that the Choir isn't completely overbearing!
The coda featrues a neat set of chords played on the almost full organ, which isn't completed until the Tuba joins in the last chord.
Warning - you're going to sing "How dry I am" when you hear the end of this one!!! ;-) |
