Mendelssohn’s earliest organ music was also conceived under the influence of J.S. Bach; in the Three Preludes and Fugues, op. 37, we hear Mendelssohn capably assimilating Bach’s forms into an early-Romantic language, but one still formed by Classical ideals. In the Six Sonatas, op. 65 written only seven years later (1844), Mendelssohn takes a decisive step into the Romantic age, for the first time appropriating the Viennese sonata-allegro form of Mozart and Beetho- ven to the organ. The first movement ofSonata III is a triumphant march, but in the middle, fugal section the chorale “Aus tiefer Noth” (Psalm 130, “Out of the depths”) is introduced as a dark, programmatic element, which is vanquished by the return of the march in the closing section. Charles Wood was a native of Armagh, Ireland, and studied with his famous countryman Charles Villiers Stanford. One of the inaugural class of fifty at the Royal College of Music, Wood later succeeded his teacher as Professor at the University of Cambridge.
