2 Newsletter for the Toronto Centre of the Royal Canadian College of Organists December/January Stefan Engels: German Masterworks at Metropolitan United Church On Friday evening, November 6, the Toronto Centre of the RCCO, together with Metropolitan United Church, presented Stefan Engels in recital. He is no stranger to Toronto, having performed here twice before. Professor of Organ at Southwestern Methodist University in Dallas, he has established himself as an accomplished recitalist and respected and sought-after teacher. His recital concentrated on music by German composers with the exception of the opening works, Première et Deuxième Fantasie by Alain. These were played very expressively and I found the interpretations quite moving. There followed the Passacaglia et thema fugatum by Bach. Engels detailed playing highlighted the structure of the work, and his sensitive registration assisted the listener in the enjoyment of this masterpiece. Variations on a sacred folk tune by Karl Hoyer closed the first half of the programme. The theme itself was extremely simple, and I have to confess that when the piece concluded I was quite ready to scrap it. However, Hoyer, a contemporary of Reger and eventually teacher and organist in Leipzig at the St. Nicholas Church was a well known composer of his time and is only recently being discovered. His style is much like Reger s with much chromaticism. The Variations exploit every possible way of treating the theme and this alone kept up my interest while Engels added to the enjoyment by using every possible variety of sound to display both the composition and also his formidable technique. His mastery of the romantic organ was exhibited in the second half with works of Sigfrid Karg-Elert. Engels has recorded the complete works of Karg-Elert and it was a pleasure to hear him demonstrate the contrasting moods of one of the Symphonic Chorales, and one of the 10 Characteristic Tone Poems. The selection of Aphorismus once again demonstrated Engels mastery of the huge resources of the Casavant organ from The conclusion of the concert was Karg-Elert s Introduction, Passacaglia and Fugue on B.A.C.H. This is a technically demanding work, but Engels, as in all his meticulous playing, kept the structure clear, and exploited the organ s resources to the fullest and certainly kept our attentions to the final chord. It was a delight to have him as a guest in our centre.

3 Stefan Engels at Metropolitan United Church (Continued from Page 1) This was a recital not to be missed since it displayed so much material rarely heard in Toronto. Unfortunately, members of the RCCO seem to be disinterested in the organ, for the number of members present could easily be counted on two hands. The executive is always puzzled by members who join the organisation but seem to ignore the wealth of organ music presented in this city. The Master Class was also poorly attended, but the students played well and Engels worked intensely with the students, pointing out what might be improved. Especially interesting was his working with one student, teaching him how to master the Crescendo Pedal in the expressive playing of Liszt. We are so grateful that we have such fine talented students who can respond to such teaching. Thank you to Stefani Bedin, Manuel Piazza and Rashaan Allwood for their participation in this event, sponsored by the Faculty of Music.

4 The President s Voice December 2015 What! December already? By the time this reaches you, most of you will be deep in countless rehearsals for the innumerable worship and carol services with Messiah, Christmas Oratorio, nativity plays, pageants and bell ringing all playing a part. Not to be missed is marvelous Christmas organ music. This year with the passing of Sir David Willcocks I will especially appreciate and give thanks for his classic descants on the Christmas hymns. Somewhere in all of this should we not make time for Him whose Festival we are celebrating? Heaven s light flashed against the darkness; A guided star left its socket, Curious kings their thrones and shepherds their pastures. Men s spirits soared as if lifted by eagle s wings, While all the host of heaven joined in a Hallelujah chorus to announce the appearance of history s brightest hour. It was the fullness of time and the highest hopes Of both God and man met in a manger in Bethlehem. David Weind Mark Your Calendars! Hymn Festival with John Schwandt Sunday, February 21st Grace Church on-the-hill 2:00 PM A Hymn Festival for Lent featuring Organist John Schwandt and the Choirs of Grace Church on-the-hill. "John has the most extraordinary sense of hymn playing. If you could see the faces of the congregation you would have seen a group of worshipers enlightened and lifted by his leading of the music. The scriptures and texts were matched with improvisations and accompaniments in an emotionally charged and yet seamless way that gave me greater understanding of the Word." - Kevin Fleming, Pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Evansville IN 4
