• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

    In order to post a new topic - or reply to existing ones - you may join and become a member by clicking on Register New User. It's completely free and only requires a working email address (in order to confirm your registration - it will never be given away!). We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

This music is the first piece of my LITTLE ORGAN BOOK. The others will follow.
This book contains four scores of baroque music for pipe organ. They are intended for the novice organists and contain an optional pedal part,
All the musics of this collection are written to be played with or without this part for pedals.


Cette musique est la 1ere pièce de mon livre LITTLE ORGAN BOOK. Les autres pièces vont suivre.
Ce livre contient quatre partitions de musique baroque pour orgue liturgique. elles sont destinées aux organistes débutants et comportent une partie pédale optionnelle.
Toutes les pièces de cette collection "LITTLE ORGAN BOOK" ont été écrites pour pouvoir être jouées avec ou sans cette partie pour pédales.

pieces 2 & 3

This second piece is a short prelude in A moll.

So as to be easy to perform by novice organist, on small organ, this piece has been written with 2 bass lines.
The 1st bass played by left hand is a real bass part. It becomes the tenor voice when the organist plays the pedal staff.



Third piece

This piece in F dur is like a little fantasia easy to perform on a small organ, with or without a pedalboard. Even if you do not use the pedal, the music comes with a correct bass voice played by your left hand.
This short music may also suit the office when a short time is granted to the organist.

piece n°4

Piece number 4 : short passacaille in D minor

This piece in D minor sounds like a great choir and like a passacaille. Written at first for hands only, an optional pedal part, very easy to play has been added to give power and depthness to the music.

Delightful pieces - I particularly like the fourth. However, I am a little confused by the time signature of the third piece - it is written as 6/8 but the software plays it as if it was 3/4.

Jean-Paul: My book arrived today from Lulu.com.. I am very impressed. The print is very easy to read with a nice cover. I will enjoy playing them as well as having some of your music in printed form other than the PDF files of your other works you have sent me. Thanks again and I will order more of your material as time goes on I am sure.

How old is your nephew you dedicated the pieces to?
