'I should like to call the pieces '3 Sonatas for the Organ' instead of 'Voluntaries'. Tell me if you like this title as well, if not, I think 'Voluntaries' will suit the pieces also, the more so as I do not know what it means precisely.'\r
\r
Felix Mendelssohn wrote these lines to Charles Coventry in a letter dated 29 August 1844. Coventry was the proprietorof the English music publisher Coventry & Hollier and a great admirer of his friend Mendelssohn.\r
\r
Mendelssohn had been commissioned to write organ music by Coventry & Hollier, organ music intended for the Englishmarket. The term voluntary is used for a piece of organ music bearing a certain resemblance to the classical French overture, with a slow followed by a fast movement.\r
\r
It cannot be said that Mendelssohn was the most innovative composer of his times, but he became an important organ composer. His three preludes and fugues (opus 37) from 1837 are the first newly written organ works by an eminent composer after Bach's death in 1750.\r
\r
The six organ sonatas of Mendelssohn were published concurrently in England, Germany, France and Italy, underscoring the high regard in which the sonatas were held at the time.\r
\r
Anders Eidsten Dahl (born 1976) studied with Terje Winge at the Norwegian Academy of Music, where he received a degree in church music in 1999. Following his studies with K\xe5re Nordstoga, he received his diploma in solo organ performance from the same institution in 2001.\r
\r
Anders Eidsten Dahl is much in demand as organ soloist, chamber musician, and harpsichordist, and he has held organ concerts in Germany, Russia, the Slovak Republic, Italy and Austria, as well as Scandinavia.
