Wolfgang J. Brylla Wilhelm Sauer – Budowniczy Organów
Wolfgang J. Brylla Wilhelm Sauer – budowniczy organów Nadwarciański Rocznik Historyczno-Archiwalny nr 3, 208-210 1996 Wolfgang J. Brylla Zielona Góra WILHELM SAUER- BUDOWNICZY ORGANÓW Kiedy finalizowała się budo wa nowego kościoła ewangelickie go w Witnicy, pomyślano też o po stawieniu nowych, dużych orga nów. Zarząd parafii kościoła zwró cił się do znanej i popularnej w No wej Marchii firmy organowej “Wil helm Sauer”, mającej swoją siedzi bę we Frankfurcie nad Odrą przy ówczesnej ulicy Park 13. Na pod stawie zawartego kontraktu, firma postawiła w roku 1877, za sumę 17 395 marek, trzymanuałowy in strument z pedałem, z 35 głosami Z zachowanych, niestety niekompletnych, materiałów archiwalnych wynika, że witnicki instrument zalicza się do niewielkiej grupy największych instru mentów Sauera powstałych w tamtym czasie. W ciągu dwudziestu lat samo dzielnej organomistrzowskiej działalności Sauer zbudował ponad 250 orga nów (witnickie organy mają numer 257), w tym tylko około 8 proc. instru mentów dużych (powyżej 35 głosów). Witnicka realizacja zamówienia w dużej części oparta była na doświad czeniach zebranych w trakcie budowy podobnej wielkości organów w Toru niu (1873 - 34 głosy), Sankt Petersburgu (1875 - 35 głosów), a także w Ośnie Lubuskim (1876 - 31 głosów), organy w Ośnie Lubuskim są instrumentem dwumanuałowym. ftilhelm Sauer - budowniczy organów 209 Interesujące nas organy są charakterystyczne dla lansowanej przez Wil helma Sauera estetyki brzmieniowej, na którą niebagatelny wpływ miał jego pobyt w Paryżu i praktyka u najsłynniejszego francuskiego budowniczego organów Aristide Cavaille-Colla. Wilhelm Sauer, urodzony 23 marca 1831 r. w Schónbeck (Meklembur gia), organomistrzowstwem zainteresował się późno, mimo że jego ojciec od 1835 r. budował organy. Pierwotne zainteresowania Wilhelma miały się zre alizować w studiowaniu rysunku na Bauakademie w Berlinie. -

Doctoral Document Draft Final
From Gentle to Giant Signs of a Continuing Tradition of Organ Building in Central and Southern Germany 1750-1850 by Brandon Lee Burns A Research Paper presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved November 2019 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Kimberly Marshall, Co-Chair Russell Ryan, Co-Chair Catherine Saucier ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2019 ABSTRACT When one thinks of the great German Romantic organs of Ladegast, Walcker, Schulze, and Sauer, visions of the large colossus organs of the cathedrals of Merseburg, Schwerin, and Berlin come to mind. These instruments were rich in power but also in timbre and dynamic contrasts, able to crescendo from barely audible to thundering and back. On the other hand, their eighteenth-century predecessors in the Southern and Central German regions of Baden-Württemburg, Bavaria, Thuringia, and Saxony showed a softer side characterized by few reeds and mixtures, generally small size, and gentle voicing and winding. However, many of the traits found in these earlier instruments, including an abundance of 8’ registers, a focus on color rather than contrapuntal clarity, tierce mixtures, and a relatively low proportion of mixtures and reeds to foundation stops are carried over to the early Romantic organs. Especially interesting are the transitional instruments around the turn of the nineteenth century. The end of the eighteenth century and beginning of the nineteenth, the time between the death of J. S. Bach in 1750 and E. F. Walcker’s construction of the Paulskirche organ in Frankfurt in 1833, often appears as a sort of “Dark Ages” for the organ in which little happened to advance the organ into the new century. -

Karolina Jara Institute of Art History, University of Wrocław e soundscape of public space in Breslau during the period of National Socialism Abstract: is article examines the methods of space appropriation employed by the Nazi authorities, with particular emphasis on the musical and auditory layers and the projects for reshaping the public space in Breslau, focusing on the designed sound environment. e rst of the issues presented, the 12th German Choral Society Festival (Deutsches Sän- gerbundesfest), took place from 28 July to 1 August 1937. It was the biggest musical event organised in Breslau under the ird Reich and one of the most important events on the national level. e festival allows us to trace how the musical sphere was harnessed in the space of the city and how its propaganda potential was exploited. e second phenomenon under scrutiny concerns a space that was designed but never actually existed, so the ques- tion of its acoustic characteristics seems completely inaccessible. Useful in this respect are architectural plans and photographs of mock-ups with planned areas of the city that allow us to reect on designed architecture in relation to the planned soundscape of new urban spaces. I am most interested in how and to what extent sound can be considered an important factor in the process of redesigning an entire city centre in the late 1930s. e aim of this article is to broaden understanding of the sound experience of the Nazi city, as well as its role in urban planning. Keywords: public space, architecture, ird Reich, music festival, space appropriation, designing the sound environment e air is exceptionally warm tonight. -
