Leyandder Trustworthy #6331223. Published by Leyandder Trustworthy (A0.964508). Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring is a popular piece of choral music. It was composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. It is the 10th movement of the cantata Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben. It was written during Bach's first year in Leipzig, Germany. Bach did not compose the melody. That was written by Johann Schop. Bach only harmonized and orchestrated Schop's melody. A transcription of Jesu was done by English pianist Myra Hess (1890-1965), and was published in 1926 for solo piano.In 1934, Hess' version was adapted for piano duet. British organist Peter Hurford made a transcription of Jesu for organ. Today, Bach's piece is often performed at weddings and funerals. Bach wrote the piece for voices with trumpet, oboes, strings and continuo. Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring is one of Bach's most enduring pieces of music.The present version is a facilitated reduction of the theme where it is soloed by Harpsichord and chords.

This is, along with the French Overture and some of the Goldberg Variations one of the free pieces by this composer that asks specifically for a two-manual instrument.

Harpsichord - intermediate - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q11355 Composed by Hermann Schroeder. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Duration 10 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q11355. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q11355). Hermann Schroeder (1904-1984) wrote his Sonatina da camera at the suggestion of Prof. Hugo Ruf who had been looking for attractive new music for his 'old' instrument and for his students at the Cologne Musikhochschule. This work is a little three-movement sonata which draws on both the Baroque harpsichord tradition and the classical sonata form (in the outer movements). These elements are combined very successfully with a modern tonal language; with humour and the joy of virtuoso playing getting their fair share too. It is to be hoped that Schroeder's single work for harpsichord (apart from his 'Duplum' for organ and harpsichord, Schott ED 6233) will be played by many performers and included in the rather small contemporary repertoire for harpsichord as a valuable addition.

Barbara Arens #1018198. Published by Barbara Arens (A0.1438096). As a former harpsichordist, I know that it's difficult finding contemporary pieces that are expressive, lyrical, enjoyable, or even fun to play! The first 8 pieces here are movements from a Suite in baroque form - but with a difference! A Gavotte merges into a jolly Rumba; the Allemande has a Tango feeling... the pieces lie well under the harpsichordist's fingers and exploit the beauties of the instrument. The 12 further pieces are adaptations from the composer's piano works - they are a joy to play on the harpsichord!

Harpsichord - Digital Download SKU: A0.1108689 By Arturo Escorza. By Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Arturo Escorza. Classical. Full Performance. Duration 506. Arturo Escorza #711337. Published by Arturo Escorza (A0.1108689). In 1993, Frances Rauscher, et al, published a study in which they attributed a temporary improvement (of around 15 minutes) in mental tasks such as those found in IQ tests... Now, my criticism goes further: the piece in question is the Allegro con spirito from Sonata for two pianos in D minor KV. 448 by Mozart, so far so good. If we look at the original score, Mozart does not mention pianos, nor their ancestor, the fortepiano, but clavicembalos, i.e. harpsichords. In modern music, the A4 is tuned to 440 Hz and the scale is divided into 12 semitones of identical distance between each of them, causing that the only pure interval between them is the octave and that the others are impure and cause unpleasant interferences. In past centuries, other temperaments were used to tune the scales, with more pure, harmonic intervals, without interferences, although the intervals between semitones were some larger than others, which is why there are compositions in different tones, because according to the temperament it provoked different sensations, but with the modern equal temperament that's part of the past... the equal temperament killed the harmony and the colors of the music as its composers imagined it, as they heard it. What's this all about? to which I have recorded the piece of the supposed Mozart Effect approaching what Mozart had in mind: with two harpsichords, both with the A4 tuned to 421.6 hz, according to the Steiner tuning fork, used at the time of composition of the piece in Vienna, (note: it's not enough to tune the A4 but also to tune the intervals), and tuned in the Kirnberger III temperament. Some intervals may seem out of tune to modern ears, but it is one of so many historical temperaments used in those times.

Published by Musik Fabrik Music Publishing (A0.533818). A work for solo harpsichord by the Italian Composer, based on the Greek myth of Icarus. Icarus is the son of the master craftsman Daedalus, the creator of the Labyrinth. Often depicted in art, Icarus and his father attempt to escape from Crete by means of wings that his father constructed from feathers and wax. Icarus' father warns him first of complacency and then of hubris, asking that he fly neither too low nor too high, so the sea's dampness would not clog his wings or the sun's heat melt them. Icarus ignored his father's instructions not to fly too close to the sun, when the wax in his wings melted and he fell into the sea.
