Organum IV (sometimes written ORG IV, de: Vierte Riehe) is a series of publications of early organ music edited by Max Seiffert and published by Kistner & Siegel in Leipzig. All volumes of Organum IV are undated, but the founding of the Kistner & Siegel in 1923[1] provides an earliest possible year of publication.
Despite including additional symbols for practical use that are not present in the source, this series included some progressive/scholarly features such as listing the source for every piece in the preface. It remains a valuable resource for the inclusion of some pieces which have recieved minimal attention since then, such as the anonymous Prelude from D-Lr mus.ant.pract. K.N. 207/16 in volume 10 no. 5.
Introduction
The preface to vol. 1 states that the primary purpose of Organum IV was to publish music from the North-German Organ School from Sweelinck to Buxtehude and to enrich the "Literatur um Spielmaterial" of this period of music in order to contextualize the music of J. S. Bach.
Contents[2]
For unknown reasons, the Organum IV series only published free organ works (including early praeludiums, but also canzonas, ciaconas, and fugues), ignoring all chorale-based organ compositions. Many volumes focused on compositions by one composer. Some publications, called "Orgel-Meister", were a compilation of works by multiple composers.
