Carl Smith's experience as a musicologist and performer specializing in early keyboard literature combines with inspiration from Italy's art and culture to form a collection of short organ pieces that are suitable for small and large organs. Two works are based on hymns from the Advent and Christmas seasons (Conditor alme siderum and Silent Night). The others are original pieces of varied character suitable as service voluntaries or recital selections.

Composer's Note:
In writing these pieces I had in mind certain difficulties which worry most organists from time to time; and in order to combine, as it were, business with pleasure I thought it worthwhile to concentrate upon one aspect of organ technique in each piece, even at the risk of making them a little more difficult than others in this series.
In Procession the main difficulty lies in the pedals Arabesque, on the other hand could hardly have had a simpler pedal part: its object is to exercise the left hand in producing a smooth, running semi-quaver pattern Pageant with its cross-rhythms, is designed to produce well-disciplinedhands and feet that can, when required, work in conflicting rhythms.
I have kept the registration schemes as simple and straightforward as possible.
