Vielen Dank, lieber Gerd! Das Zelenka-Thema ist natürlich der entscheidende Teil für ein solch kleines, aber beschwingtes Stück.

Thanks for your concern, but don't you worry! All one needs to do is dress up warm, pick pieces with elaborate pedal parts or a heart-warming theme, and then play without mistakes so the video taping is short while the noisy air heating is off! 😀🧤 Too bad that it usually does not really work that way, but it is still better than playing in an unheated church... ❄☃ I hope that you can still enjoy what you hear (and see).

Ja, zunächst vielleicht etwas unscheinbar, aber dann doch ein angenehmes Werk, in dem man die Fugenthemen gut vernehmen kann. Und das ganze wird ja fortgesetzt bis zum grossen Finale der 5. Fuge. Ich danke Ihnen!

Thank you kindly for your words, again! I am in awe over how many great musicians had the creativity and industriousness to write so much quality music, and I am thankful to be able to bring some of that to sound and share it with a few interested viewers; that is quite gratifying indeed. Best regards to you, dear Sir!

Yes, the other ones are coming, one after another. It is a neat and unique little project, thanks to Krieger's inventiveness. Thank you!

For a real pipe organ in your home, I recommend that you start with winning the lottery jackpot. For a digital instrument like this one, there are several companies with numerous and more affordable home instrument models. This one is a Johannus Live III, and you can obtain more information on its size and sample options on the Johannus website. The unit on top with a faux pipe facade is custom-made, just for looks, and does not contribute to the sound. However, we like the appearance and enjoy the music and its esthetic perception that can be generated with this setup. Thank you for your interest!

Ich finde, es ist ein schönes, gefälliges Stück, und danke Ihnen!

It is clear that polyphonic organ play advanced significantly during the early Baroque in Protestant areas such as Northern Germany and the Netherlands, but an important reason was also the relative wealth of the towns within the Hanseatic League, as it was rather pricey to build bigger organs with full pedals, 16' and then even 32' stops and all kinds of novel registers. But one should be happy over those developments, as it paved a path for greater instruments everywhere, and spawned continued elevation of organ music culture in many other regions, too.

The Kleemeyer volume with postludes is a great treasure! Here is a link to the IMSLP website, I hope it works for you. Thanks for your interest! imslp.org/wiki/Postludien-Buch_(Kleemeyer%2C_Hermann)

I share your taste, thank you. For me, the harmonic progressions and turns are especially moving. Thankfully, there is a plethora of compositions out there, and much to be still discovered.

Great to hear your thoughts, thank you, Sir! I fully agree, and it appears remarkable, how some great composers can communicate and share a special sentiment even in short pieces.

Lieber Gerd, ich danke! Vetter ist immer irgendwie eine kleine Entdeckung.....

This is quite an interesting piece, many thanks. I personally have become so comfortable playing with socks, that I would now only do it that way. Flexibility and haptic feedback feel superior to me. If you could choose your preferred way from the standpoint of playing, independent of being at home or in public, which would you pick?

I would pick to play in public because I don’t have really good experience with recordings. We had to record during Covid and I just hate it, because every time I played something wrong I started again and ended up recording few minutes of music sometimes for more than hour.

@@juki3703 Haha, I have to smile! It can be challenging to play for a recording, especially for a lay person like myself. But I meant if you would choose shoes or socks, just for your comfort of pedal playing.

@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit Ou. Sorry I misunderstood 😅. For me is better to practice with socks just at home but anywhere else with shoes. You newer know if there is a splinter or something and of course for hygiene reasons. And one more reason why I think organ shoes are important is that I once almost broke my toe when I played some pedal solo from Bach.

@@juki3703 Careful with those fast passages, so no one gets hurt! 🦶🧦➡🏥;🦶👢➡👍😀

They are metal pipes, but they are not speaking pipes, for decoration only. I personally like the appearance, and it does contribute to the overall perception when the instrument is played. Thanks for your interest!

Ja, ein tolles Stück, sozusagen ein kleiner Bodenschatz-Schatz. Ich danke!

@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit 💯 👋

@@culturehorse 👍

Trust me, I tried for a longer one but that was not accepted.... I hope that you can enjoy some of the music pieces here, long or short! Thank you! 🙂

Some of the samples available are really nice, while others do not impress me too much. Hartmann is a great find, and he has contributed to much of the organ book that he edited, so there will be more coming out of his works. I hope you can enjoy that, and thank you for your thoughts!

Ja, wieder einer der Kellner, die ein leichtes aber wohlschmeckendes "Mahl" zu servieren wissen. Ich danke Ihnen!

Thank you, but it is a digital instrument, all sound comes from sample files, processors, amplifiers and speakers.... The facade has faux pipes only. I am using a Zoom Q2N recorder with a single external audiotechnica AT 8022 stereo microphone.

@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit It looks very impressive :-)

@ We are quite grateful for it, but the sound of the music that is generated with it is really what counts. I hope that you can enjoy some of it in the future, too. Many thanks!

Ich danke Ihnen. Ein ganz starkes Stück von einem tollen Komponisten aus meiner Geburtsstadt!

Interesting that you get synesthetic sensations of taste here; for me, it would not extend beyond gingerbread and mulled wine.... I think that Latzelsberger has a unique harmonic signature, even in short pieces. The other Advent preludes will appear for sure, you just would have to wait another year.... Thank you.

​@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit Hahahahahaha, better "synesthetic sensations" than "anesthetic sensations. It's all aesthetic. You are welcome, I will wait... :)

Dies ist eine digitale Hausorgel, Modell Live III der Firma Johannus. Der Pfeifenaufsatz wurde separat angefertigt. Ich hoffe, dass der Klang Ihnen gefällt, danke der Nachfrage.

Schön, dass es Ihnen gefällt. Es ist ein ausgesprochen angenehmes, zartfühliges Stück. Herzlichen Dank.

Thank you for your wonderful comment, again. I am glad you and others convinced me, to present all 4 movements, so that the Pastorale is now complete. The last movement is special, it is a compositional and architectural masterpiece, and one feels complete after listening. On a practical note, it took the Army Corps of Engineering to get the pyramid to function....; I shall contact them again to straighten out the floor, and provide seat belts for the organ bench. For us all I wish for a solid-grounded 2025, with no steep hills or obstacles to master! Special thanks!

I hope it is not too raw, but more a la carte, or a la mode perhaps?

Es ist ein toller Satz, keine Frage. Die verzierte Melodie über der schreitenden Begleitung mit anspruchsvoller harmonischer Progression: das ist ähnlich wie in der Air aus der dritten Orchestersuite, trotz der Moll-Tonalität. Da finden sich auch noch weitere Beispiele bei Bach. Ich danke für Ihre Note!

@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit Denke ich auch. 👍

Haha, you fell for the appearance of this quite nicely built instrument. All pipes in the front are not speaking pipes, they are for decoration only. All sound is generated by computer samples, amplifiers and speakers. The sound is the most important part here, but the pipes visually enhance the overall impression of a real pipe organ.... I hope you can now still enjoy some pieces played on this instrument!

Vielen Dank für Ihre netten Worte, lieber Gerd! Einsichtsvolle Kommentare und Anregungen wie die Ihren sind eine Inspiration für die tägliche Bereitstellung von neuen Aufnahmen. Ich hoffe, dass einige davon Sie auch im kommenden Jahr erfreuen können!

Ja, das bezog sich auf die Aufnahmes dieses Noels im letzten Jahr. Das Instrument funktioniert immer noch nicht wieder voll, ich habe Zugang zu entweder dem Pedal oder dem Schwellwerk, aber nicht zu beiden. Man macht das beste daraus, d.h. es ist wie eine zweimanualige Orgel, aber die grösseren Stücke von Buxtehude, Bruhns oder Lübeck sind somit eben nicht so gut machbar; ich hoffe, dass sich das endlich bald korrigieren lässt. Danke der Nachfrage!

Vielen Dank für Ihre netten Gedanken und bedeutungsreichen Worte. Rückmeldungen wie diese sind eine Inspiration, auch weiterhin hausgemachte Musik zur Freude und Erbaulichkeit mit anderen zu teilen. Ich wünsche Ihnen ein erfreuliches und glückliches Neues Jahr!

Lieber Gerd: dies wunderbare Stück begleitet mich zu Weihnachten nunmehr seit vielen Jahren, und ist immer wieder ergreifend in seiner Schlichtheit, verbunden mit melodischer und harmonischer Schönheit. Ich danke sehr.

Thank you for your kind comment! I am glad that you liked this. It is a glorious piece, perfect for Christmas.

A Merry Christmas and best wishes to you from here also, dear Sir! Your thoughtful and delightful commentaries have definitely made my time enjoyable and more worthwhile, and for that I am very grateful! I hope you will enjoy more of these little musical appetizer samples to come. 🙏

Thank you for your kind comment. It is a special piece, and quite playable and still fun to play. Your comment encourages me to post the remaining movements during this Christmas season, so stay tuned. Merry Christmas and best regards!

You put a lot of thought into this, as your detailed comments show. The intriguing aspect to me is, that even relatively "simple" music can generate plenty of associations and sentiments, and they may differ between individuals; it may evoke beauty, esthetics, faith, spirituality and much more, there is no right or wrong. Almost always is it positive, corroborating, edifying. Therefore, don't be dismayed by a wrong note (although we all are and we all have more of them than we care for), what really counts instead is that the music is being generated and allows every listener to respond. Only a fool should remark on one incorrect note (I firmly hope!). Thanks to you for sharing your thoughts.

@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit Thank you for your words... Your words are true... Your words did show me the truth John 8:32 ...you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free from the bondage of sin.” Your words put me back/set me free in the reality of being happy and content with how I played The day before yesterday I was put down/humiliated by my weaknesses.

"It was only able with the help/grace of heaven... In the end, I did cry... By the way Psalm 31, 3c-4. 6+8ab. 16b-17 - Feast of Saint Stephen the Deacon, the First Martyr In church (26.12) . . . . .

@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit For now, my prelude to the church song would look like 3/4 octave for example: D F A D - all full note... D = full note + F = full note + A full note + D full note I would hold it and only then I would hit this chord. :):):) The prelude of the church song is mostly the first and last sentence of the strophe mixed in nice cover of chords... :):)

@andrejjan2240 👍

@andrejjan2240 There are many ways to create in introduction of a hort prelude to a song; building a chord and creating a small cadence is a good start. You could also take part of the melody alone, and then add the other voices up to a cadence, best to the tonic; this allows you to then play the complete chorale for singing. Good luck!

Vielen Dank! Immer wieder ein herrliches Stück zur Weihnachtszeit, ein ganz anderer Bach.

Dear Sir Jeffrey: Special thanks for your kind thoughts. I very much hope that any smile is genuine, and not a risus sardonicus. At times, the gentleman in the picture certainly has had some reason to shed a tear or two. The Pastorale is always great, clearly the young Bach accomplished what he had set out to do.

Die Kellners haben so einiges an Gefälligem geschrieben; das macht Spass zu spielen und zu hören. Ich danke Ihnen!

In theory yes, for instance for 4-voice settings of chorals. Sometimes the score leaves it open, so for some fugues or preludes written before 1730, so one has to decide; they are often completely playable on manuals only, but using the pedal for some lower passages will increase the sound effect and depth. If a lower passage asks for virtuoso play, one may have to reconsider.... For most newer organ pieces, the pedal use is usually specified in the score.

​@@Laienhausmusikerbaulichkeit "The pedal use is usually specified in the score." You are so true! - I learned it! Only with humility, I learned it. Or under the score, there is "man." written... man. = manual Pedals can be used for example for Rephrains (R.:) of psalms... :):)

Thank you for your kind observation and for sharing your thoughts. I very much agree that the ambiente, both indoors and especially outdoors, has a big impact on the sentiments with which we absorb and process musical (or other) perceptions. Our instruments do not have a forest horn stop, and I have not observed that wildlife has been drawn to the area through the playing. However, various animals that are around do not appear bothered by it, and keep moving along with their activities. We had deer, squirrels, owls and turkeys in videos so far, the latter just on 12/16/24, and I normally point them out in the text. Deer in the snow may make an appearance on December 22, in case you are interested. Thanks again and please enjoy!
