recommended by Caryn G. and Judy S., Sacred Keyboard Music Specialists
Autumn Festivals ed. Rebecca Groom te Velde & David Blackwell, for Intermediate/Advanced Organ
This valuable collection for organists includes 37 original pieces on hymns for World Communion, Reformation/The Church, Harvest, All Saints, All Souls, Remembrance, Christ the King, and Thanksgiving. These fresh, imaginative new pieces are written by a range of experienced organ composers based in the US and the UK, and display a great variety of styles and approaches. Practical, concise settings are included for all parts of the church service – preludes, postludes, fanfares, and communion settings. This collection is suitable for busy church musicians at an intermediate level working in all major denominations, and some pieces are also suitable for recital use. Registration suggestions are included that can readily be adapted to suit most instruments with pedals. A companion website also features a cumulative index of hymn tunes and contributor biographies.
