  • Verslag Orgelfestival Holland 2007
    Verslag Orgelfestival Holland 2007 Stichting Internationaal Schnitger Orgelconcours www.alkmaarorgelstad.nl Inleiding Van 22 tot en met 30 juni 2007 stond de Alkmaarse Grote Sint Laurenskerk in het teken van het Orgelfestival Holland, dat sinds 1991 voor de negende keer werd georganiseerd door de Stichting Internationaal Schnitger Orgelconcours. Het festival bestond uit een concours, een academie met lezingen en masterclasses, een orgelwandeltocht en een serie concerten met daarin het bijzondere jeugdconcert Heavy Metal?!. De opzet van dit festival verschilde van de vorige doordat dit festival aan één componist een speciaal openingsweekend wijdde. Dit jaar was dat de componist Dieterich Buxtehude in verband met zijn 300ste sterfjaar. In dit zogenaamde “Dieterich Buxtehude Weekend” werd een groot aantal activiteiten op promotioneel en muzikaal gebied georganiseerd, waardoor we in het weekend alleen al 1500 bezoekers bij de verschillende evenementen mochten begroeten. 2 Het Dieterich Buxtehude Weekend Vrijdag 22 juni Het orgelfestival op de kaasmarkt Op vrijdag 22 juni startte het Buxtehude Weekend op de beroemde Alkmaarse kaasmarkt. Op uitnodiging en in aanwezigheid van loco-burgemeester Hans Meijer en wethouder Rian van Dam werd deze speciale kaasmarkt geopend door het luiden van de bel door de Italiaanse organist en jurylid Andrea Marcon. Even tevoren had Marcon het belang van de wereldberoemde orgels in de Grote St. Laurenskerk onder de aandacht gebracht van de honderden toeristen op de kaasmarkt. Tijdens de kaasmarkt werd een “Battle of the Carillon” gehouden, waarbij het carillon in de Waagtoren, bespeeld door stadsbeiaardier Bob van Wely, en het reizende carillon van klokkengieterij Eijsbouts, bespeeld door Rosemarie Seuntiëns, een vraag- en antwoordspel uitvoerden.

Wir bitten Sie, während der Konzert elektrische Geräte mit akustischen Signalen ausgeschaltet zu lassen. Program Notes The short-lived Nicolaus Bruhns was a favored student of Dieterich Buxtehude. His E minor Praeludium is a late example of a genre perfected by Buxtehude, who left us many more such pieces: a multi-sectioned work alternating brilliant and often surprising passages in the stylus phantasticus (fantasy style) with sections of fugal counterpoint. The rhetorical devices in such works have been compared to those of extended sermons of the period. Two special sections stand out in this piece: one is marked “harpeggio” and reflects Bruhns abilities as a violinist: he could have played the manual part on his violin and accompanied himself on the organ pedals! The second fugue section features a dramatic silence in the fugue subject itself, taking advantage of reverberation times in resonant churches.
