Bux Passacaglia in Em ? !

[Ghekorg7]

Hi to all.

I went to a Dutch site and found a performance on Leeuwarden Organ , medium quality live recording and an MP3 download (got it), of Buxtehude's Passacaglia in... Em (no BuxWV).

I didn't know that another passacaglia existed (though it's known that Bux wrote many).
Is it genuine ?
Is there a free score?

Best regards

A direct link to the piece would help to identify it. I guess it might be the Ciacona in E minor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YiCEBZWv0w

And you guessed RIGHT dear FinnViking !!

It is Ciacona in Em, indeed. It seems our fellow organist follows the theory of all ciaconas are the same like passacaglias with their ostinatto bass ect.

There are many hymns and their scores for free.

Thanks for your quick answer and for the history here's the link.

But also this site is... GREAT ! many many photos of organs, also from Belgium that we don't see everyday, and full disposition info on each one !

I liked the great and choir organs in Grimbergen Abdij... what a simple beauty !

Have a look also on the house organs collection... Oh I dream I got one Of these he he

Thanks again
