Edited for the first time based on the autograph. The only wind instrument for which Felix Mendelssohn wrote any solo works is the Clarinet.

Thanks to the relative simplicity of the chorus our volume makes a useful addition to the material already published for this concerto (BA 8344). Original version of movement no. 4 from Organ Concerto HWV 292 . Effective and easy to perform. For four-voice mixed chorus.
