Organ Music from South America


Dear fellow organists,

I am looking for organ music from South America, preferably from Brazil or Argentina. I would prefer music by living composers or in general, organ music from the 21st and 20th century.


I would play it along with North American music by Haan, Cooman, Lehenbauer, Callahan, Manz etc, so the South American pieces should not differ too much from the US pieces, not too difficult or virtuoso. I used to have some pieces by Amaral Vieira from Brazil, he sent me those 16 years ago, but unfortunately I cannot find those anymore.

The audience will probably not be familiar with organ literature in general, so it would not be a disadvantage if the pieces were melodic and easily accessible. :-))

I would be grateful for any hint, thanks a bunch, best wishes,
Michael

I have some volumes of Mexican organ music by VivacePress. The series contains works by composers like Alfonso de Elías, Manuel de Elías or Ramón Noble.
There are also at least two organ works available by the Argentinian Alberto Ginastera, which are both worth playing and might fit into your programm.
