Swift Settings: Short Organ Pieces for Worship arr. Robert F. Swift, for Intermediate Organ 3-staff
These short organ pieces based on familiar hymns are suitable as preludes, offertories, and postludes. The melodies are always clearly present, though Swift has cloaked them in inventive and distinctive treatments that will make a memorable impression. Titles include: “Balm in Gilead,” “Morning Light (Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus),” “Prelude on ELLERS,” “Shout for Joy to the Lord (Psalm 100:1),” “There Shall Be Showers of Blessing (Biblical Weather Forecast),” “Voluntary on GERMANY,” and “Meditation on PICARDY.”
