An organ recital by Carl Smith, Minister of Music at Delmar Baptist Church, will be held on Sunday, Oct. 17, at 4 p.m.
The program will include masterpieces by German composers of the eighteenth, nineteenth, and early twentieth centuries.
The first half includes three works by J.S. Bach, the most significant of which is his variations on the German hymn “Be Thee Greeted, Lord Jesus Christ.” This is Bach’s largest organ work, and perhaps his greatest, comparable to the Goldberg Variations in maturity and scope, though shorter in length.
The second half includes chorale preludes by Max Reger, an unjustly neglected late-romantic master whose works lead to the atonal style of the first quarter of our century.
The program concludes with Felix Mendelssohn’s Sonata No. 1 in F minor, the largest of his six sonatas and one of the most important works from the period written for organ. Carl Smith has been Minister of Music at Delmar Church since 1973; he appears frequently in concerts in the area as organist, harpsichordist, and conductor.
This concert will be performed on Delmar Church’s splendid tracker-action organ, finished by Robert Sipe in 1975.
