Karg-Elert for beginners. Although Sigfrid Karg-Elert has long made his way from insider's tip to widely acknowledged master, his organ pieces are still considered technically demanding today. A "Karg-Elert for Beginners" book was long overdue, and Martin Weyer's collection "facile ma non troppo" is just what we needed. The 32 pieces, which include short works with or without a chorale reference, are relatively easy to perform. Moreover, the chorale preludes have been transposed to the hymnal keys used today. In addition to being wonderfully suited for organ practice and teaching, this new collection will also help organists discover a previously little-known side to Karg-Elert.
