Instrumental Solo,Pipe Organ - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1306531 Composed by Thomas Groh. Contemporary. Individual part. 10 pages. Thomas Groh #895881. Published by Thomas Groh (A0.1306531). The title “Litanies� obviously alludes to Jehan Alain's piece of the same name, written for organ in 1937. Inspired by this outstanding and unique composition, I had the idea, some 20 years ago, to create a piece of music based on a theme resembling a litany, too (without pretending, of course, that I would be able to equal in any way Alain's masterful quality as a composer). The main theme was notated quickly, but in the years since then, many variants and secondary themes that came to my mind did not satisfy me. Thus, it took a very long time and many ample interruptions before in this summer, with some new ideas everything fell into place as if by magic.There also exists a version of this piece for saxophone and organ (op. 3a).
