Based on a familiarity with Austrian organ music from the late ISth and early 19th centuries, which is always notated on two staves, I was able to establish that several other peculiarities of the notation of these fugues pointed to the organ. In south Germany and Austria, an organ style was flourishing which was completely different from that found in the masterful compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach. Further, the use of pedalpoints and relatively long note values suggest that Schubert could hardly have been thinking of the hammerklavier with its short-lived sound. An analysis of the range of the three fugues is particularly enlightenin~ . During Schubert's youth, organs were built with a compass of C to d . The C-Major Fugue uses a C~8 as its highest note. The Fugue in G Major is also playable on an organ with a short octave in the bass, the D l\'linor, on a broken short octave; these two works, therefore, suit a type of organ which was already antiquated in Schubert's time. It is easy to prove that these observations about the compass of the works allow conclusions about what instrument Schubert had in mind in com .. posing these works - not only by reference to analogous situations with other composers, but also with Schubert. Sketches in Schubert's hand for four fugues on a single theme have been preserved in the music col· lection of Vienna's Stadtbibliothek; he clearly specified that they were for uClav: (jer]."

Schubert I" l825. pol".ed by Wilhelm AUfjIlIf .'.cIar
In March, 1978, I published the first edition of three fugues for organ by Franz Schubert - in C Major, G Major, and D Minor - based on an autograph score (Vienna/Munich: Verlag Ludwig Doblinger, Bern hard Herzmansky, KG, Diletto musicale no. SIS ). In the new edition of Otto Erich Deutsch's Schubert, Thematic Catalogue a/ All His Works, which has just been published, the three works are numbered 24-A, 24-B and 24-C. The first performance of these three fugues took place on March SO, 1975, in the Hochschulkirche St. Ursula in Vienna; Hans Haselb1ick played the Fugues in G Major and D Minor, and Martin Haselb1ick played the C Major Fugue. To begin the program, they both played the only organ work by Schubert which had been known up to this time, the Fugue for Organ, Four Hands in E Minor, D. 952.' The invited guests at the premiere realized - as Prof. Helmut Scharz, rector of Vienna's Hoehschule fijr Musik und darstellende Kunst put it - that they were present that evening at a very special event. The preface to the first edition of these three works can be amplified with several additional observations. In 1969, Prof. Christa Landon (1921- 1977 ), member of the editorial board of the Neue Schubert Ausgabe, had called attention to about fifteen pages of Schubert autograph scores which she had uncovered in the archive of the Wiener ~Hinnergesan. \ r" '~ verein. How they got there remains a mystery - they were never entered 1 ; I ~ \ in an itwentory or acquisition book. There is strong evidence that on ,IQ ;3 f i Schubert's death this sheaf of papers was in the possession of his brother, "\;.3 rl[j¥ I Ferdinand, and that it passed from him to the Wiener Mannergesang l. l. i '" or,.. 1; verein. This sheaf included three fugues notated on two staves) without super~ script or indication of the intended instrument. Judging by the hand· writing, they must have been written by Schubert in ISI2, the C l\-Iajor and G l\'Iajor a bit earlier, the D r... linor somewhat later. Christa Landon could establish only that the three fugues could not be realized on a piano with complete faithfulness to the score, and she spoke of them as Fugen /iir "Klauier12 - a title which called attention to the uncertainty • of t.he categorization: notated like a work for piano) but not playable on a plano.

I) passage work lead him similarly into these ranges. He immediately used, in other words the full compass of the pinno. The theme for these four sketches is typi~ally pianistic. and is thereb), as unorganistic as is possi!:>le. The themes of the three fugues. on the contrary, are not only appropnate for the org an, but each of lhe three can be seell as belonging to categ,aries of theme lypes which were traditional in the Viennese organ musIc of Johann Georg Albrechtsberger, Johann Ib ptist Vanhal, Ambros Rieder, and Simon Sechler to mention but a few. In nddition, there are several peculiarities of the' notation of these three fugues which were typical of the notation of Austrian organ music of the 1Bth and early 19th centuries; I am more specific about these in the preface to the first edition (cited above) . The Deutsche Staatsbibliothek in East Berlin holds a one-oa!!e study wlth a c3ntu5 finnu5 in the handwritin~ of Antonio Salieri and counter· point to it in Schubert's hand ; Schubert noted on it, "Den 18. Juny 1812 den Contrapunkt angefangen. I. Gattung" ("Counterpoint begun on 18 June 1812. 1st species"). At first glance, it would seem likely that these , three fugues from 1612 ought to have a connection to the early studies :: • with Salieri in strict writing. A closer musical examination of the three " \51 works pro\'es the opposite. They are anything- hut "school f ugues/ ' by no means text·book e."ampicsJ and any teacher of strict counterpoint would be quite disturbed if students brought him exercises like these. They are more like freely fugal \ ... arks, sometimes with a homophonic coda, especially successful in the performance of the C-Major Fugue. Strict structure is as lacking as fannal logic. This seems a detriment on paper, but for performance - for the interpreter and for the listener it is an advantage, in that they arc overflowing with brilliance and musical flights of fancy. The organists' repertoire is enriched not with three dry textbook fugues, but with three exceedingly grateful works in free fugal style. One sees in these works that the most important factor for Schu· bert was not a strict adherence to dry rules, but musical effect. It seems to me that these three works by Schubert lIlay have been pre cipitated by his studies with ~Iichael Holzer, organist and choir director at the Lichtentaler Pfarrkirchc, and Schubert's first teacher - he had himself been a pupil of Johann Georg Albrechtsberger. They also reflect the impressions that Schubert would havc had of the organ playing he heard as a choirboy c\'ery Sunday at the Viennese court chapel. Fuglle In D MI_r, D 24.C Icourbsy G.s.Uschoft ".r Muslkfr.und., YI.nna'. S~hub.rt wroh The three fugues, essentially, allow for two different types of interpre this wark aver .he .1.1.,09* af the faurifl part .f • strlll9 qllort•• by Jo.. ,ha MOUtter. tation. One is the conventional, s()oocalled classic ("baroque") manner, using the pedals for the bass voice. The other is traditional for Austrian organ music of this period, and the pedal is generally used very sparingly: coupled as a technical aid; as a unison with the manual bass when oc taves arc notated in the bass j independently only towards thc ends of pieces - as one pedal point or another, marking the beginning of the coda. "Too much use of the pedals ... strikes the listener as monotonous," is the short and apt remark made by Anton Scherrer (who was personally acquainted with Schubert) in his 1830 publication, Abllamllllllg iiber Kirclrenmusik im AligemeilJeu. This latter manner of using the pedals , is perhaps also the more musically appropriate in that the hannony of R Sdmbert's three organ fugues is more interesting than the contrapuntal development, which is nonexistant in the strict sense. Schubert marked ",,:;; e dynamics clearly only in the coda of the C-Major Fugue. If an organ with more than one manual is available, there are felicitous places in all three fugues for manual changes. They would be less in the spirit of b roque terraced dynamics and the delight of alternating sounds than T in bringing out the dramatic musical structure, the hannonic events, in deed, general musical sensibilities ; one is not dealing with a strict fugue or some certificate of merit in baroque counterpoint. Beetho\'en said of k'· V the fugue that "nowadays a different, truly poetic element must be in '-' '--' fused into the formerly used fOJm." Schubert clearly felt the same way I .. i~:.... ,' 1.'fi: and acted upon it even as a fifteen-year-old, writing these three works r11/~ I , , - if we want to grasp Beetho\'en's concept - as free fugues with poetic ~I ~ elements. Significantly, he did not seek instruction in strict counterpoint , with Simon Sechter until 1828, shortly before his death. , [ 3 )! = In the larger context, these three fugues are interesting for other - S \.!

'''lith these three fugues the repertoire of Austrian i organ works is enlarged with works - albeit also youthful ones - of one of the major figures of Austrian music history. l In this connection it is worth calling attention to a fugue by Simon Sechter which has a close conncction to Schubcrt.

Typhoid fever and, ultimately, death cut off the lessons.
