Three Communion Meditations On Familiar Hymn Tunes

This set includes beautiful settings of well-known hymn tunes "Picardy," "Wondrous Love," and "Amazing Grace" that organists will find useful over and over again. While perfect for use during Communion, each piece is substantial enough to stand on its own. Maxwell has called for specific colors with his registrations, but any organist will find these arrangements playable on almost any size instrument and with little work.

If you like show pieces then this collection is for you. Page Long has composed toccatas on three well-known hymn tunes ("Lancashire," "St. Anne," and "St. Catherine"). While not easy, these can be mastered by most organists, and all sound more difficult than they actually are. All three have been registered for a two-manual instrument and are sure to please all who hear them.

Here's a truly spectacular, one-of-a-kind collection. Childs has written beautiful arrangements of eight familiar hymns, each based on names of the saints, thus the book title. Included are upper-intermediate level solos. Titles: * St. Anne * St. Denio * St. George's Windsor * St. Kevin * St. Magnus * St. Michael * St. Theodulph * St. Thomas This collection will be useful throughout the church year.

David Lasky offers a collection of intermediate-level arrangements to seven familiar hymns. These may be played as organ solos with a trumpet stop, or with a trumpet player.
