By Various Writers.

151 popular titles by Various Writers This collection is a comprehensive compilation of organ music including a total of 151 titles.

It is perhaps the most exhaustive volume of its type to have ever been published. The compiler has given careful attention to the needs of the church organist for interesting and practical organ literature of varying levels of difficulty for weddings, funerals, ordinary times in the church year, and for special seasons and days.

Reharmonized Hymn Collections with interludes and modulations

The 18 hymn accompaniments provide various styles of reharmonizations with the intention of encouraging and supporting congregational singing. The reharmonizations are from what I have been accompanying at my home church and I thought it would be a good idea to build a library of accompaniment series for church organists.

Each hymn in this collection is composed of 3 verses including original choral settings, reharmonization I, and reharmonization II along with interludes and modulations. This setting offers fresh harmonic ideas and organists can provide diverse accompaniments for each verse.
I hope you find this hymn accompaniment collection one that supports both the congregation and organists to lift up their voices and pipes to sing to the Lord!

This anthology provides a wealth of meditative, lyric organ solos. These pieces are useful as preludes, offertories, interludes, Communion music, and recital selections, and various groupings can create music of varied duration. Fenton Groden's three preludes are inspired by psalm verses. Kevin Norris's exquisite Six Lyrical Pieces (with their echoes of Faure's style) have been out of print for many years, and we are pleased to re-release them in updated editions in this volume. Meditations by Peter Mathews and George Frederick McKay round out this exceptional volume of expressive organ music by American composers.
