[ ]Sonata 1Benjamin Cornelius-Bates

organ solo n 160-924 n $15

Benjamin Cornelius-Bates’s “Sonata I” commission explicitly requested a work of only intermediate technical difficulty so that it could be

accessible to a large number of organists. In addition to the whole piece being a striking concert work, the four varied movements of the

sonata can serve as individual service voluntaries.

“The Sonata as a whole will make a wonderful recital piece, and the individual movements are sure to find their way into

church organists’ voluntary libraries world-wide.” – John Deahl, KC AGO convention committee

Commissioned for the

2018 American Guild of Organists

National Convention in Kansas City

Prelude on a Gaelic HymnAlfred V. Fedak

The composer notes that this prelude on the beautiful Gaelic hymn ColumCille (appearing in several hymnals with varied texts) can be played “loudly and boldly or quietly and gently.” This flexibility makes the piece useful as nearly any

kind of service voluntary; it would also make an excellent wedding or funeral selection.

Moderately easy.

organ solo n 160-631 n $10

Commissioned by the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Guild of Organists, this spirited piece makes a terrific postlude or a recital opener. Fanfare flourishes combine with toccata-like

figurations throughout. The raised fourth scale degree of the Lydian mode imbues the harmonies with a true sense of exultation.

“Phillips’ articulative and harmonic detail adds layers of challenge and excitement to the music. Medium level in difficulty, this fiery

composition is suitable for recital and festive occasions.”–Cross Accent, Spring 2018

Two individual organ works by Craig Philips (“Sarabande” and “Ode and Salutation”) comprise this volume. Both pieces are dedicated in memory of organist Jonathan Biggers, who was a close friend and champion of the composer. “Sarabande” is a lyric meditation inspired by the “O Lord, support us” evening collect from the Book of Common Prayer. “Ode and Salutation” begins quietly, with solemnity; the music gradually builds to a

glorious ending of resplendent affirmation.

This two movement treatment of the English folk hymn kingSfold was commissioned for the 2015 Pittsburgh Mid-Atlantic Regional Convention of the American Guild of Organists. The expressive

prelude begins with a lush, broad treatment with the melody presented in the pedal on a 4’ stop. A brief, celeste interlude leads to a flowing, plainchant-like setting before the mysterious celeste music returns to close. The ebullient toccata takes the

hymn through a variety of keys with a perpetually moving texture.

This distinctive new collection of organ music for the liturgical year was commissioned for the 2016 National Convention

of the American Guild of Organists in Houston. The title refers to J. S. Bach’s volume of chorale-based organ works and Houston’s Gulf Coast waterways. Realizing that newer hymn tunes often

lacked chorale preludes, the convention’s new music committee decided that each piece in this collection would be based on a hymn tune composed since 1960. The 31 works chosen are a combination of pieces commissioned by the convention and

pieces selected from an open “call for scores.”

Triptych on FREDERICKTOWNAlfred V. Fedakorgan n 160-613 n $10

Alfred V. Fedak has written a useful Triptych (Prelude, Trio, and Finale) on Charles Anders’ hymn tune, Fredericktown. This hymn appear

in a number of contemporary hymnals to Fred Pratt Green’s “When in our music God is glorified,” or Sylvia Dunstan’s “In all our grief.”

The three movements work well as a prelude, offertory, and postlude when using the hymn during a worship service.
