If you like pieces that are challenging and bit more showy than run-of-the-mill, this collection is for you. Although not necessarily difficult, they do take some working out. The results will be well worth it. The collection contains a rousing prelude on TRURO; a toccata on EASTER HYMN; two variants on O FILII ET FILIAE; trumpet tune on DIADEMATA; and a quieter trio on VRUECHTEN. Matthew Corl writes in an ebullient style that is both fun to play and fun to hear.

O filii et filiae (composed 2017, duration ca. 5’) is a set of short variations. The variations explore sounds, textures, styles, and techniques of different organ traditions, from the German Baroque to early twentieth-century French. Harmonically, too, the variations cover a wide range, from fully diatonic to heavily chromatic. After the last variation is an extended finale, which presents the hymn tune, in augmentation, in canon between bass and soprano while the other voices provide dense counterpoint in between. The piece concludes with a blistering pedal solo under a series of unexpected and pungent chords. This is a work that strives to inspire awe and wonder.

Technical note: the variety of textures and styles in this piece requires a well-rounded technique. Likewise the variety of sounds and styles will be better served by a larger instrument.

David Schelat always has a fresh approach (stylistically, rhythmically, or harmonically) to the tunes he uses, and this collection is no exception. If you think, Oh, not THAT tune again, you need to take another look because he will surprise you. EASTER HYMN is set to a lilting waltz, LANCASHIRE as an imitative trio, GAUDEAMUS PARITER as a lively dance, GELOBT SEI GOTT as a fugal setting with a cantus firmus in the pedal, and CHRIST IST ERSTANDEN as a baroque slow movement with a solo for cornet registration. Interesting and rewarding to play and hear.
