ed. Martin Weyer. Piutti (1846-1902) was an organist of St. Thomas, Leipzig, and a teacher at the Leipzig Conservatory. He writes, “The pieces in this collection are all written for worship in church. With few exceptions they can be used equally well as preludes or postludes. If the short ones are suitable only as plain introductions to congregational singing, the longer ones will find their places as postludes or festive preludes. Most of the pieces are easy to play; none are truly difficult.” contains 67 tunes
