32 Préludes pour l' Orgue ou Pianoforte
The 32 Miniatures, which Vogler conceived primarily for performance as splendid
sounding organ voluntaries, and which can also be performed on the piano, are
ideally suited as brief separate voluntaries for use at church services. Their
cyclic layout also suggests a complete performance, at which the harmonic and
formal characteristics of the Preludes are revealed, along with Vogler's predilection
for dynamic gradations, try means of which he sought to imitate the varying
sonorities of an orchestra.
