Description

Organ music for Advent & Christmas: A collection compiled by Timothy Rogers

This collection contains 15 seasonal organ pieces by living composers. The music is suitable for use as voluntaries during Advent and Christmas services or for concerts. While some of the compositions are bold and energetic, other items are poignant and expressive. Overall, there is a broad mix of styles and composers, the majority of whom are women.

If you are an organist looking to refresh your Christmas repertoire, this book contains a number of stimulating new commissions on familiar carol and hymn tunes, including contributions from Neil Cox, Bryan Kelly, Sarah MacDonald and Janet Wheeler.
