Thomas Åberg (b. 1952) — Three Short Fantasy Pieces (1978–79) for organ
1. Daylight
2. Wartet auf... (“Waiting for...”)
3. Pluie d’orage sur Saint-Louis (“Thunderstorm over Saint Louis”)
Three Short Fantasy Pieces (1978/79) were the composer’s earliest published organ works, beginning a career that would lead to the most significant body of organ music from a Swedish composer in the last decades of the 20th century. It was with the first piece of this set (“Daylight”) that Åberg made his debut in 1978 as a composer/organist in the Skeppsholmskyrkan, Stockholm. The titles (in three languages) reflect the inspiration of the pieces. In “Daylight,” a dramatic and dissonant opening section gradually gives way to quiet and melodic music. “Wartet auf…” (“Waiting for...”) has a title in the spirit of many avant-garde works of the 1970s. Quiet, enigmatic music is followed by a loud coda. “Pluie d’orage sur Saint-Louis” (“Thunderstorm in Saint-Louis”) was inspired by a thunderstorm the composer experienced while visiting the small French/Alsatian town of Saint-Louis.
