Willem van Twillert

I am a Dutch professional organist, trained by Piet Kee at the Amsterdam Conservatory in the 1970s.
Most of the recordings for YouTube are made by skilled engineers like Marien Stouten for AUDIO and Herman Logtenberg and Sonja Koopal for FILM.
I like all styles in organ literature and then choose a top organ, often historical in the Netherlands.
We also pay attention to the acoustics of the church building.
We as a recording team are passionate about finding that perfect immersive organ sound. It is our aim to place you right in the middle of the action so you can close your eyes and imagine being in the presence of the organ that I am playing.
I work as an organist at Johanneskerk - Amersfoort as well as a freelance musician and composer.

REYNALDO HAHN
Eind 20e eeuw kwam er hernieuwde belangstelling voor Reynaldo Hahns composities.
Hahn werd geboren te Venezuela en vertrok als kind naar Frankrijk.
Hahn volgde onder meer les bij Massenet en Gounod en ontwikkelde zich tot 
een op-en-top Franse componist. 
Met name zijn liederen, waren vaak te horen.
Thans staat zijn gehele oeuvre opnieuw in de belangstelling
Hahn componeerde meer dan 100 liederen. 
De meeste onstonden tussen 1888 en 1918.  
In zijn vroege liederen hoor je de invloed van Massenet. 
Hahn beschouwde Gabriel Fauré als de meester van de melodie. 
Hahn waardeerde enkele van Fauré's uitverkoren dichters, waaronder Victor Hugo, Théophile Gautier en Paul Verlaine.
Zijn liederen vertolktke Hahn graag in Parijse salons en hij begeleidde zichzelf.
Rond de eeuwwisseling van de 19e naar de 20e eeuw oogstte hij waardering oogstte in de kring van Proust en Cocteau. 
In zijn in 1933 onder de titel Journal d’un musicien bericht hij uitvoerig hierover.

VERSCHUEREN-orgel  1936  St. Catharinekerk  EINDHOVEN NL
Zie 
https://www.brabantorgel.nl/eindhoven-stadskerk-sint-cathrien/

Het orgel met 5725 pijpen, 71 registers en twee speeltafels  werd gebouwd in1936 door Verschueren.
Stadsarchitect en kerkmeester Louis Kooken (1867-1940) ontwierp het orgelfront. 
De houten beelden van Jacques Verdonck uit 1850 kregen een plaats in het front. 
Bij de bouw van het Verschueren-orgel in 1936 baseerde Kerssemakers zich op de ideeën van de Orgelbewegung. 
Dat leverde een klanksamenstelling op van hoogliggende registers en romantische klanken.
Ondanks het feit dat er vele grote (16′ en 8′) prestantpijpen werden opgesteld, is het roosvenster àchter het orgel nog goed zichtbaar. 
De meeste pijpen staan in twee grote nissen links en rechts van het orgelfront.
A CHLORIS text, Théophile de Viau

ENGLISH

S'il est vrai, Chloris, que tu m'aimes,
Mais j'entends, que tu m'aimes bien,
Je ne crois point que les rois mêmes
Aient un bonheur pareil au mien.
Que la mort serait importune
De venir changer ma fortune
A la félicité des cieux!
Tout ce qu'on dit de l'ambroisie
Ne touche point ma fantaisie
Au prix des grâces de tes yeux.
To Chloris

If it be true, Chloris, that you love me,
(And I'm told you love me dearly),
I do not believe that even kings
Can match the happiness I know.
Even death would be powerless
To alter my fortune
With the promise of heavenly bliss!
All that they say of ambrosia
Does not stir my imagination
Like the favour of your eyes!

VERSCHUEREN-orgel  1936 St. Catharinekerk  EINDHOVEN NL
The organ with 5725 pipes, 71 registers and two consoles was built in 1936 by Verschueren.
City architect Louis Kooken (1867-1940) designed the organ front.
Jacques Verdonck's wooden statues from 1850 were placed on the facade.
When building the Verschueren organ in 1936, Kerssemakers based himself on the ideas of the Orgelbewegung.
This resulted in a good color of high registers and romantic sounds. '
Despite the fact that many large (16' and 8') principal pipes were installed, the rose window behind the organ is still clearly visible.
Most pipes are in two large niches to the left and right of the organ front.

#willemvantwillertmodernorganmusic   This FANFARE sounds wonderful in this arrangement for organ solo on the beautiful reeds of the beautifully restored and reconstructed IBACH organ in Bergen op Zoom.

AARON COPLAND
composed his FANFARE for the COMMON MAN with its start with a solo trumpet percussion, and majestic musical expanse in 1942 for the  Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra under conductor Eugene Goossens. 
Copland was inspired in part by a speech made earlier that year by then-American Vice President Henry A. Wallace, in which Wallace proclaimed the dawning of the "Century of the Common Man". 
The title was inspired by a speech given by Henry Wallace, vice president under Franklin D. Roosevelt. 
Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man remains a defiant ode to America, the fragile beacon, and to the dignity of the individual.
Copland considered several titles including Fanfare for a Solemn Ceremony and Fanfare for Four Freedoms. 
To Goossens' surprise, however, Copland titled the piece FANFARE for the COMMON MAN. Goossens wrote, "Its title is as original as its music, and I think it is so telling that it deserves a special occasion for its performance. 
If it is agreeable to you, we will premiere it 12 March 1943 at income tax time". Copland's reply was "I [am] all for honoring the common man at income tax time".
Copland later used his FANFARE as the main theme of the fourth movement of his Third Symphony (composed between 1944 and 1946).

Fanfare has found much use as a theme for television programs. 
In the USA:
YOU ARE THERE in its later years during the show's closing credits. 
Emerson, Lake and Palmer's arrangement of "Fanfare for the Common Man" was the opening theme song for the CBS Sports Spectacular and in Mexico
It was the main title theme of TV Azteca TV sports program DeporTV. 
In SCOTLAND, the BBC used it as the theme for their main news program Reporting Scotland in the late 1970s and early 1980s. 
An early 1980s Canadian television series, Titans, used "Fanfare" as its opening theme music.

In AUSTRALIA, the Seven Network used Emerson, Lake & Palmer's version in the 1980s and early 1990s as the theme music for Seven Sports broadcasts, and continued to use a teaser version up until 2011.

On January 18, 2009, the FANFARE  was played at the beginning of WE ARE ONE: The Obama Inaugural Celebration at the Lincoln Memorial. 
It was also played at the beginning of "An American Reunion", the concert (also at the Lincoln Memorial) on Saturday prior to the inauguration of Bill Clinton in 1992.

Several feature films employ the piece for dramatic effect. John Williams' main themes for the 1978 Superman film are partially based on this Fanfare.
On October 9, 2004, it was played as Queen Elizabeth II and her procession entered the debating chamber during the opening ceremony of the new Scottish Parliament building in Edinburgh.

The FANFARE for the COMMON MAN  was one of the musical themes for Expo 67, which was held in Montreal.

21- 09-2012 The FANFARE for the COMMON MAN was played at Los Angeles International Airport as the Space Shuttle Endeavour touched down after its final flight.

26-09-2015, it was played at Independence Hall in Philadelphia as Pope Francis came outside to make a speech.
04-10-2016, it was played at the memorial service for golfer Arnold Palmer, after placing the flags.

ABOUT AB WEEGENAAR
Ab Weegenaar's father was an organist, which brought him into contact with organ music at an early age. 
Nevertheless, he first started playing the bassoon and was admitted to the conservatory at the age of 15.
Ab was taught by Fred Gaasterland, later by Brian Pollard.

At the age of 21, Ab was the first in the Netherlands to obtain a soloist's diploma (master's degree) for this instrument.
His organ playing was still a hobby at the time; he took lessons from Stef Tuinstra.

After his completed bassoon studies, he went back to the Municipal Conservatory in Groningen, for organ studies with Wim van Beek, Theo Jellema and Kees van Eersel (church music).
Ab also obtained his master's degree in this instrument.
He studied choral conducting at the Hogeschool IDE in Groningen and successfully completed this study in 2003.

As a bassoonist, he has worked with the Northern Philharmonic Orchestra, the Residentie Orkest and the Gelders Orkest.
As cantor-organist, he was associated with churches in Zeerijp, Groningen, Eelde, Leidschendam, Arnhem and the Grote Kerk in Wageningen.
In 1995 Ab Weegenaar was appointed organist of the Bovenkerk in Kampen.
In that position, he has been the permanent player of the monumental Hinsz organ and the Reil organ [1999].
In 2017 he was appointed city organist of the Municipality of Kampen

NEDERLANDS
OVER AB WEEGENAAR
De vader van Ab Weegenaar was organist te Groningen waardoor hij vroeg met orgelmuziek in aanraking kwam. 
Toch ging hij eerst fagot spelen en werd op 15 jarige leeftijd toegelaten op het conservatorium. 
Ab kreeg les van Fred Gaasterland, later van Brian Pollard.

Op zijn 21ste was Ab de eerste in Nederland die voor dit instrument het solistendiploma (master) behaalde. 
Zijn orgelspel was toen nog hobby; hij volgde lessen bij Stef Tuinstra.

Klaar met fagot studie ging hij terug naar het Stedelijk Conservatorium in Groningen, voor orgelstudie bij Wim van Beek, Theo Jellema en bij Kees van Eersel (kerkmuziek). 
Ook voor dit instrument behaalde Ab zijn masterdiploma.
Bij de Hogeschool IDE te Groningen studeerde hij koordirectie diploma in 2003.

Als fagottist was hij werkzaam bij het Noordelijk Filharmonisch Orkest, het Residentie Orkest en het Gelders Orkest. 
Als cantor-organist was hij verbonden aan kerken te Zeerijp, Groningen, Eelde, Leidschendam, Arnhem en de Grote Kerk van Wageningen.
In 1995 werd Ab Weegenaar aangesteld als organist-titularis van de Bovenkerk in Kampen.
In die functie is hij al vele jaren de vaste bespeler van het monumentale Hinsz-orgel uit 1743 en het Reil-orgel uit 1999.

In 2017 volgde een aanstelling als stads organist van de Gemeente Kampen

Als fagot docent is hij verbonden aan de muziekschool “Quintus” van Kampen en heeft hij een privé orgelpraktijk in de Bovenkerk (ongeveer 30 leerlingen). 

Ab Weegenaar is behalve  organist en fagottist ook dirigent van vier koren.
In 2000 was hij betrokken bij de oprichting van “Het Bovenkerk Kamerkoor’. Sinds de start van dit koor is hij de vaste dirigent. 
Nu heet het koor “Cappella Campen”.

This is a RE-release of the video previously posted on YouTube.
Thanks to the inventiveness of the editor and secretary of the Foundation Promotion Orgel Projects, Matthijs Vink, the image is now sharper and the sheet music largely follows the performance.
Due to copyrights, 90 percent of the sheet music is shown in this video (and not 100 percent).

ENGLISH
It may well be that everything comes together in a combination of an instrument and a perfect composition by J. S. Bach.
I think that is the case here with this Vox Humana 8' from the Hinsz organ in Kampen [NL].
This Vox Humana 8' sound is almost unearthly beautiful because of its extraordinarily lilting and melancholic tone. 

BWV 208.
BWV 208, also known as the Hunting Cantata, is a secular cantata composed by Johann Sebastian Bach for the 31st birthday of Duke Christian of Saxe-Weissenfels on 23 February 1713. 
It is Bach's earliest surviving secular cantata, composed while he was employed as a court organist in Weimar. Was this cantata intended as a gift to Bach's employer, William Ernest, Duke of Saxe-Weimar, for his neighboring ruler, Duke Christian, who was an avid hunter?
Bach stayed in Weißenfels in 1713 for birthday celebrations. 
Bach was appointed royal Kapellmeister in 1729, but this position as court composer did not require residence at court.

ORGAN
The oldest pipes in the organ (especially the flutes 4′ and 2′ of the Bovenwerk) probably come from Jan Morlet (1629).
In 1676 Jan Slegel completed a new organ, using materials [from Jan Morlet (1629)] from the old organ.
1694-1712 Johan Duyschot maintenance.
1741-1743 Albertus Anthoni Hinsz performs these activities:
new organ case
renewal of all wind channels, drawers and mechanisms.
Registers were added
1788/1789 H.H. Freytag and F.C. Schnitger Jr. manufacture:
Free pedal (8 registers)
Borstwerk with 4 voices, playable from the Bovenwerk keyboard.
The Dulcian 8′ Rugwerk moves to Borstwerk
In Rugwerk on vacant place, Fagot 16
19th century Van Gruisen, Scheuer, and Naber work on the organ.
1866 Zwier van Dijk gave the Borstwerk its own keyboard and added registers.
1967-75 restoration by Bakker & Timmenga organ builders, Leeuwarden.
Eight registers from around 1820-1866 remained on a separate windchest.
2000 the instrument was “revitalized” by Organ maker Reil.
The pipework has been checked, the 7 expansion bellows have been connected to the wind machine, the mechanics have been adjusted and repairs have been made.

NEDERLANDS
Het kan wel eens zijn dat in een combinatie van een instrument en een volmaakte compositie van J. S. Bach alles samenkomt. 
Dat is misschien het geval bij Vox Humana van het Hinsz-orgel te Kampen [NL]. 
Deze Vox Humana klinkt is bijna onaards mooi vamwege de buitengewoon zangerige en melancholieke toon. 

BWV 208
Bachs vroegst bewaarde seculiere cantate, gecomponeerd toen hij als hoforganist in Weimar werkte.
Was deze cantate bedoeld als geschenk aan Bachs werkgever, Willem Ernest, hertog van Saksen-Weimar, voor zijn naburige heerser, hertog Christian, die een fervent jager was?
Bach verbleef in 1713 in Weißenfels
Bach werd 1729 benoemd tot koninklijke kapelmeester, maar voor deze positie als hofcomponist was geen verblijf aan het hof vereist.

ORGEL
Het oudste pijpwerk in het orgel (vooral de fluiten 4′ en 2′ van het Bovenwerk) is waarschijnlijk afkomstig van Jan Morlet (1629)
1676 voltooide Jan Slegel een nieuw orgel, waarbij hij materialen [van Jan Morlet (1629)] uit het oude orgel gebruikte
1694-1712 Johan Duyschot onderhoud
1741-1743   Albertus Anthoni Hinsz verricht deze werkzaamheden: 
nieuwe kas
vernieuwing alle windkanalen, laden en mechaniek
Er kwamen registers bij.
1788/1789  H.H. Freytag en F.C. Schnitger Jr. vervaardigen:
Vrij pedaal (8 registers)

POST PRODUCTION [2023] Matthijs Vink.
The UEFA Champions League anthem, officially titled ‘Champions League’, is an adaptation of the most famous of Handel’s Coronation Anthems, ‘Zadok the Priest’.
Composer Tony Britten was commissioned to write the Champions League theme in 1992 when the football competition was rebranded.
Britten, a graduate of the Royal College of Music, borrowed heavily from Handel’s much-loved choral anthem – and it stuck.
Coincidentally, Classic FM also launched in 1992, and ‘Zadok the Priest’ was the first piece ever broadcast on the station.

The version of the theme that you’ll hear before a match is performed by WILLEM van TWILLERT a Dutch organist on a famous Historical Organ built by the Brothers IBACH in 1864 in Bergen op Zoom in NL

The anthem's chorus, which contains the three official languages used by UEFA: English, German, and French, is played before each UEFA Champions League game. 
It also appears at the beginning and end of television broadcasts of the matches.

Special vocal versions have been performed live at the Champions League Final with lyrics in other languages, changing over to the host country's language for the chorus.

Handel himself allowed in the eighteenth century that Zadok the Priest, along with other of his works compiled in Coronation Anthems, were used and played in any type of event or ceremony.

ABOUT this ARRANGEMENT for PIPE ORGAN by William Thomas Best (1826-1897) and WILLEM  van TWILLERT (*1952)

SHORTSwillemvantwillert   #PromotionOrganProjectsSHORTS   George Frideric Handel composed 'Zadok the Priest' (HWV 258) for the coronation of King George II on October 11, 1727.
William Thomas Best (1826-1897) arranged this work for organ solo.
For this recording, the organist, Willem van Twillert added notes in the right hand to emphasize the three-voiced layered violin parts.
In the orchestral introduction (now arranged for organ solo) the music prepares a surprise through the use of static layering of soft string textures followed by a suddenly rousing forte tutti entrance, supplemented by three trumpets. 
It provides stirring heroism.

TONY BRITTEN  
Tony Britten (1900-1995) graduated from the Royal College of Music in London, used the music of G. F. Handel as the basis for the Anthem that he made for UEFA on behalf of the UEFA Champions League which started in 1992. 
"The idea of the Champions League was to make the game beautiful again and the music had to reflect this quality," Britten told UEFA.TV about his arrangement/composition. 
Tony Britten's choice has been an excellent one in preparing the football fans for the match.

IMPROVISETTA in Romantic style Put peace into each other's hand [LB1014] JOS VAN DER KOOY Naber-organ  Amersfoort  #PROMOTIONORGANPROJECTSIMPROVISETTA     As winner of the International Improvisation Competition for Organists in Haarlem (1980 &1981), Jos van der Kooy does not need any further introduction as an improvising organist.
In his improvisations, tonality remains a binding, but not a leading factor; sometimes.
Jos goes outside, which often produces personal outpourings in harmony and rhythm, and on top of that, there is also a healthy dose of humor.

In this improvisation on the melody of 'Put peace into each other's hand', Jos uses a romantic idiom in the style of the song. 
His improvisation is essentially simple but very effective. 
Jos van der Kooy also proves himself to be a masterful organist with his registrations.
Jos van der Kooy is also a masterly organist in his choice of stops (registration).

NEDERLANDS
Dit is de eerste van drie improvisaties die Jos van der Kooy speelde op het Naber-orgel in de Sint-Joriskerk te Amersfoort tijdens het improvisatie project (9-10 November 2022).
Jos van der Kooy heeft als winnaar van het Internationaal Improvisatie Concours voor Organisten te (1980 &1981) Haarlem geen introductie als improviserend organist nodig.
In zijn improvisaties blijft de tonaliteit  een bindende, maar geen leidende factor; soms treedt Jos er buiten wat vaak persoonlijke ontboezemingen in samenklanken en ritmiek oplevert.
Daarenboven is er ook sprake van een dosis humor. 

In deze improvisatie over,  'Geef vrede door van hand tot hand,'  hanteert Jos een romantisch idioom 
Tekst Fred Kaan.
Vertaling Andries Govaart. 
De improvisatie is in wezen uiterst eenvoudig maar o zo effectief. 
Ook in zijn keuze van registers (registratie) toont Jos van der Kooy zich een meesterlijk organist.
