The musical counterpoint possible in two and three-voice compositions make them a natural fit for the organ, and such works have been a part of the instrument’s repertoire since the very beginning. David Lasky has written seven free duos, eight free trios, and seven trios on familiar hymns to comprise this useful collection. The pieces are all short—most are less than two minutes—and thus can serve, individually or in groups, as fitting music anywhere in a service. Additionally, they will work well as teaching pieces at the early intermediate or intermediate level.

Ovid Young's distinguished career as a pianist, organist, and teacher was complemented by his activities as a composer and arranger. Available once again, the Ovid Young Organ Book is a terrific collection of original pieces from 1984 that represent some of Young's finest writing. The pieces arose from his experience as a church musician and, in particular, the desire for shorter pieces that still make a powerful impression. None of the pieces are longer than three minutes in length, though the composer also provides two suggested suites for occasions when a longer work is needed.
