Seven Hymn Tunes Arranged for Organ and Piano Duet

More Than Hymns is a new two-volume collection of anthems for mixed voice choirs featuring extended arrangements of existing hymn tunes together with original anthem-style settings of the texts of several well known hymns. Of the seventeen works in this second volume seven are published here for the first time including new pieces by composers of today: John Barnard Indra Hughes Stephen Jackson Bryan Kelly Barry Rose and Gavin Williams. The texts cover many seasons of the church's year - Advent Lent Passiontide Easter Communion Evensong and more.

The Oxford Book of Lent and Easter Organ Music brings together a superb array of repertoire for use from Ash Wednesday through to Pentecost providing a comprehensive volume for this extended liturgical period. The pieces—largely based on well-known hymn tunes—vary in style and length suiting a range of purposes from processionals and interludes to voluntaries and recital works. A range of technical difficulty makes the book useful for players of differing abilities and clean and uncluttered scores leave interpretative decisions to the performer. An invaluable resource for a major part of the church year.34 pieces for manuals and pedals suitablefor use from Lent through to PentecostSeven brand-new commissions by important names such as David Briggs Naji Hakim and Francis JacksonA variety of musical forms including preludes toccatas fanfares and variationsCovers 17th to 21st centuries from major historic organ composers including Scheidt Mendelssohn and Reger through 20th-century luminaries Harris and Leighton to contemporary figures such as Malcolm Riley David Bednall and Christopher TamblingOriginal organ compositions plus new arrangements of favourites from Handel's Messiah and J.
