The first performance of Six Bagatelles was given by Margaret Phillips in St Michael’s Church Lyme Regis on 18 November 2011.Six Bagatelles are transcriptions for organ of six of the Bagatelles diverses originallywritten for solo piano. These are published by Chester Music (order no. CH74371) and have been recorded by Caroline Clemmow on ‘Burlesque’ - Piano Music by Brian Chapple (divineart dda25056).'I am very grateful toMargaret Phillips for her helpful comments and practical suggestions in the preparation of these pieces for performance.' - Brian Chapple'This engaging set was originally written for solo pianoand transcribed for organ for Margaret Phillips who first performed them in 2011. The transcriptions are most successful: idiomatic and allowing plenty of scope for colourful registrations. Harmonically the music is dissonant yet accessible; themes are engaging and well developed. The fifth is the most extended an inventive dancing scherzo coupling sliding chromaticism with a fierce inner rhythmic drive. This would make an excellent set for theadventurous recitalist but could equally be played individually in a liturgical setting.' - Sunday by Sunday

POD-Le Poisson Magique is a work by John McCabe for Organ. A full performance of the piece lasts around 6 minutes. British composer and pianist John McCabe died in 2015. This work is an early one and published now for the first time. It dates from 1964 a rich year for his organ music also including the Johannes-Partita Nocturne and Prelude. Le Poisson Magique is a meditation on the painting of the same name by Paul Klee and takes the form of a free passacaglia in two alternating tempi. A solid technique is required to tackle some of the more complex polyphonic passages but as ever the rewards with McCabe’smusic are broad and deep. - Sunday by Sunday

Iain Farrington's Bluesday for solo Organ. Composed in 2010. Dedicated to Robert Houssart. 'Judging by this bunch of new public­ations the year 2010 was a busy one for British composers of organ music though quite why it has taken six or seven years for almost all of this music to appear remains unexplained. And if one were asked to guess the most recent work in terms of 'modem language' it would be this study from Iain Farrington. Dedicated to Robert Houssart this short piece combines - as one might infer from the title - certain phraseology from musical worlds not often encountered on a concert organ whether in a church or civicbuilding but it is not merely the thematic line (such as it is) that snakes in an un­certain manner but also the impacted sense of occasional harmony that speaks in a more modem musical language. None the less this intriguing composition would work best on a small instrument and is a fascinating piece to study at home.' - James Palmer

On St. Crispin's Day in 1415 Henry V of England defeated the French in the decisive battle of Agincourt. A famous victory hymn Deo Gratias which is attributed to John Dunstable was composed to celebrate the victory. It is this hymn which provides the subject for this work.

While Darke composed extensively for Choir and Organ he wrote many fewer works for solo Organ. The first of the set St Peter dedicated to Herbert Howells is the best known of the three atmospheric and improvisational and Orchestral in style. The second prelude a fantasia on Darwell’s 148th is a virtuosic piece that retains its musical integrity. The final on a theme by Tallis begins by tranquilly setting out its theme before moving into romantic Orchestral style. Harold E. Darke was an English composer and Organist of international renown. In 1916 he established the Monday lunchtime Organ recitals at St Michael’s Cornhillwhich continue to this day the longest-running such series in the world. His setting of Christina Rosetti’s poem In the Bleak Midwinter created a melody and lilting Organ accompaniment that have never fallen from favour. It is regarded as one of the greatest Christmas carols and is still sung at the service of Nine Lessons and Carols.
