During organ concerts, one
might come across quite often by compositions inspired by gregorian
melodies. Along the centuries, composers answered to the challenge of
“re-thinking” gregorian hymns, sequences and also more complicated,
melismatic themes.
This recording offers some
examples of such “re-taught” opuses: the original gregorian themes and their
adaptations can be heard alternately. Beside the schola cantorum from Cluj,
Erich Türk interprets famous and lesser-known works, too, of composers from the
17th–18th centuries – such as Nicolas de Grigny – to
contemporary composers, playing on four different organs from Cluj.
This CD’s special feature is the
piece entitled In baptismate Domini, composed especially for this
recording on the demand of the Schola Gregoriana Monostorinensis, by the
organist’s father, Hans Peter Türk. Thus, this CD represents the first audition
of this organ work.
The gregorian
chants were recorded in the Calvary Church from Cluj, in September 2009.
