Abstract

In hierdie tesis word een van Liszt se belangrikste orrelwerke, die Prelude en Fuga op B-A-C-H, ondersoek en ontleed as voorbeeld van sy orrelstyl en om sy bydrae as orrelkomponis te bepaal. Daar word eerstens na Liszt as orrelkomponis gekyk en 'n opsomrning van sy bydrae tot die orrelrepetorium word verskaf Hiema word sy orrelstyl ondersoek en word gekyk na die verskillende orrels wat moontlik 'n invloed hierop kon he. In hoofstuk 3 word die Prelude en Fuga op B-A-C-H ontleed as manifestasie van Liszt se musiekstyl in die algemeen, terwyl Hoofstuk 4 die verwerking van hierdie werk vir klavier ondersoek om te sien watter aanpassings die komponis moes maak. Hoewel hierdie werk van Liszt reeds deur talle uitgewers uitgegee is, is die verskillende uitgawes uiteenlopend en heel dikwels teenstrydig as dit kom by aanduidings in die partituur. Di~ uitgawes wat in hierdie tesis bespreek en vergelyk word, is die wat vrylik in die mark beskikbaar is en dus algemeen deur uitvoerders gebruik word, naarnlik die uitgawes Dover, Musica Budapest, Neue Musik ag Winterthur, Nuwe Liszt, Novello, Peters en Universal. 'n Vergelyking van die verskillende uitgawes geskied aan die hand van tempi-, toonsterkte-, karakter-, partituur-, artikulasie- en manuaalaanduidings. Aandag word ook gegee aan die tonale kleuring, dit wil se die registrasie van die komposisie, asook Liszt se verwerking daarvan vir die klavier en hoe hy die styl van die werk daarvoor moes aanpas. In Hoofstuk 5 word daar gekyk na die verskillende uitgawes van Liszt se orrelwerke en weer spesifiek na die Prelude en Fuga op B-A-C-H verwys. Aangesien sommige uitgawes uiteenlopend is, is gepoog om die belangrikste bronne van elke uitgawe vas te stel en ook 'n vergelyking te tref tussen hierdie uitgawes wat tempi-, toonsterkte-, karakter-, partituur-, artikulasie- en manuaalaanduidings betref Die notetekste van die verskillende uitgawes van die Prelude en Fuga op B-A-C-H word in die bylae verskaf. In this thesis one of Liszt's most important organ works, the Prelude and Fugue on B-A-C-H, has been examined and analysed in order to determine his organ style and evaluate his contribution as a composer for the organ. " Initially the thesis looks at Liszt as an organ composer and a summary is provided of his contribution to the organ repertoire. This is followed by an analysis of his style, taking into account the different organs which could possibly have had an influence on his work for this instrument. In Chapter 3 the Prelude and Fugue on B-A-C-H is analysed as a manifestation of his " musical style in general, while Chapter 4 attempts to explore the adaption for piano in order to determine what changes the composer had to make. Although this work of Liszt's has already been published by a myriad of publishers, the editions differ considerably and often contain contrary indications in the score. The editions that are discussed and compared in this thesis are those which are freely available on the market and are therefore often used by performers, viz the Dover, Musica Budapest, Neue Musik ag Winterthur, New Liszt, Novello, Peters and Universal editions. These editions are compared in terms of their tempi, tonal strength, character, score and articulation and manual indications. Attention is also paid to the tonal colour, ie the registration of the composition, as well as Liszt's adaption for the piano and how it had to be changed for the latter. In Chapter 5 the different editions of Liszt's organ works are compared, with specific reference to the Prelude and Fugue on B-A-C-H. Since some of the editions differ considerably an attempt has been made to determine the most important sources of each edition and to draw a comparison between these editions in terms of tempi, tonal strength, character, score and articulation and manual indications. The scores of the different editions of the Prelude and Fuge on B-A-C-H are included in the schedules.
