Hi friends !

I start this new thread "PDF Scores Help Service" where we can ask for a score we need or send to a friend a PDF wanted.




So, please, use this thread only

- to ask for a PDF score.

- to answer to somebody looking for a score.

[Flute'n'Pedal]

I'm looking for the score to Bach's "Komm sussen Tod." I believe it's a chorale from one of the cantatas, but I can't remember which one. Either the original chorale or an organ transcription would be welcome.

Here's "Komm, süsser Tod, komm, sel'ge Ruh'!" Actually not from a Cantata but one of many sacred songs Bach penned (you'll need a crash course in reading figured bass, I'm afraid!!).

My German's not brilliant but here's a translation:

Come, sweet death, come blessed rest!
Come guide me to peace
For I am world weary
Oh come, I wait for you
Come soon and guide me
Close my eyes
Come, blessed rest!

A good explanation to figured bass (basso continuo) is given here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basso_c...Basso_continuo

Virgil Fox (I think?!) famously "orchestrated it" then adapted it for the Wannamaker Organ, where progressively the stops are pulled out from extremely soft to noisy without using the crescendo pedal.

Hi Contratrombone 64,

Thanks for the score. I don't have a problem with the figured bass, though of course I'd be interested in a "realised" version, if one exists. But this will do for now.

This reminds me so much of the St Matthew Passion (which I remember singing as a child)

[Flute'n'Pedal]

NEB:

Yes, it does--which is probably why I assumed it was from one of the cantatas. I'm thinking of writing a new English text to it (not the sombre one given here) and having my children's choir sing it while I accompany them on the organ. I think this melody would sound lovely sung by children's voices.

I would like to request J. S. Bach's Pastorale in F for organ.
I found it somewhere some years ago (don't remember where), but it was only the first movement. I would love to have the complete score, including the bit in F minor, which uses a reed stop.

I would be overjoyed if someone could help me here, and i have quite a bit of digital sheet music available too.

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi
I think I still have this music, I must verify. But I also remember it was in a large paper format, may be difficult to scan with an A4 scanner.
I 'll search the score this afternoon.

Merci bien, Jean-Paul.

I don't know if this is the one you are looking for. I found it on a digital book I purchased on e-bay.

[mrfdes]

That was indeed the one I was looking for.
Baie Dankie, Johan.
If there is anything I can do in return, let me know.

Now, by the way, another one I am looking for (I used to have it years ago, but lost it in moving countries) is Josef Rheinberger's Cantilene in F.

And, like I said, if anyone is looking for something, always feel free to ask.

[Flute'n'Pedal]

Does anyone know where I can find the score (four-part arrangement) of the famous hymn, "Channels Only"?

[methodistgirl]

Flute I will be going to church in a little while and I will look the song
up in the Methodist Hymnbook for you and other hymnbooks as well
and see if I can't find it.

Hi
I don't know this song, but if you have it in midifile or any printed format other than 4-parts, may be I can write the 4 parts arrangement for you.
Friendly.

Good day all.

Do you know of a website where I can find out how to change multiple instrument music into organ notation? I have a lot of midi files, when I open them in Finale I get the printed score, but for every instrument used. I don't have a clue where to start transcribing all these different instruments into something that can be played on an organ.
