This is a marvellous collection of pieces by Henry Purcell newly arranged for the Organ by concert organist Martin Setchell. Purcell's music is perfectly suited to the Organ and a number of his pieces have long been popular with players. This volume brings together a range of well-known pieces - trumpet tunes the Rondeau from Abdelazer Dido's Lament and movements from The Fairy Queen - and combines these with a wonderful selection of lesser-known pieces from across Purcell's work. There are sprightly tunes and hornpipes from the stage works lovely reflective songs and airs and a wide range of dances and chaconnes. The result is a set of pieceswith wise and varied church and concert use perfectly accessible to intermediate players and making a valuable addition to any organist's repertoire. Martin Setchell is Associate Professor of Music University Organist and tutor in Organ at the University of Canterbury School Of Music New Zealand. He combines his university teaching and research career with a busy and international schedule of recitals and concerts as soloist accompanist and continuo player on Organ and Harpsichord.

Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) is known for his unique composition style. Incorporating complex rhythms harmony and melodies  L'Ascension for Organ is no exception to the composer's popular distinctive style. L'Ascension was originally composed for orchestra by Messiaen in 1932-1933. The composer described the work as Four Symphonic Meditations and the sections are; 1) Majesty of Christ praying that His Father should glorify Him 2) Serene Alleluias from a soul longing for Heaven 3) Alleluia on the Trumpet Alleluia on the Cymbal and 4) Prayer from Christ ascending towards HisFather. Messiaen arranged L'Ascensionfor solo Organ a year later. The first second and fourth movements are arrangements of the orchestral version however the composer created a new third movement; Outburst of joy from a soul before the Glory of Christ which is its own glory. L'Ascension is essential to all advanced organists seeking to expand and vary their repertoire.
