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, suitable for use from Lent through to Pentecost Seven brand-new commissions by important names such as David Briggs, Naji Hakim, and Francis Jackson A variety of musical forms, including preludes, toccatas, fanfares, and variations Covers 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 Tambling Original organ compositions plus new arrangements of favourites from Handel's Messiah and J. S. Bach's St Matthew Passion An index of hymn tunes, and pieces arranged in liturgical order

The flamboyant Carillon Festivo was written in 1999 as a recessional voluntary for the wedding of my publisher Andrew Skirrow and his wife, Lucy. Carillon da Festa was written two years later in celebration of a special birthday for my good friend Deborah Venner and is based on the tune "Happy Birthday". A recording of Two Festive Carillons is available on the Herald label (released Autumn 2012) under the title Moody Moves (HAVPCD380) played on the organ of Brentwood Cathedral by Stuart Nicholson, Organist and Master of the Choristers at St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin.

Handel's Fireworks Music, freely arranged in a suite for the Organ by E. Power Biggs.

Sonntagsorgel is a collection of stylistically varied pieces for the amateur organist comprising three volumes. The editions are ideal for teaching purposes or for use in church services. The third volume contains liturgical organ music (chorale preludes and hymnaccompaniments) and includes works by composers from Johann Christian Bach to Augustinus Franz Kropfreiter. The first volume includes festive preludes, toccatas and fugues, trios and pastorals by German and French composers from the 17th through to the 20th century. In the second volume, meditative pieces by composers ranging from Christian Heinrich to Théodore Salomé are presented. The pieces are easy to sight-read and sound impressive. The volumes will be appreciated by amateur and professional church-musicians alike. Collection of organ music which does not require much practising Mainly for amateur organists Suitable for teaching purposes Already published: Volume I: Festive Music – Fugues – Trios BA 9287 Volume II: Meditative Music – Pastorals BA 9288 “… a collection that brings pleasure to the musical amateur and also offers some attractive discoveries for the professional.” (Musica sacra) “Who amongst us amateur organists doesn’t ask himself ‘What will I play this Sunday’ – with little time to practice and, if possible, a piece which isn’t too well-known? In these volumes one will find the answer!“ Württembergische Blätter für Kirchenmusik)

An invaluable new monument of Organ literature, the Complete Organ Music of Charles Ives is crowned by two critical editions of the celebrated Variations on "America", shedding light on the familiar 1949 edition, and the original draft from 1892. Over a dozen more unfamiliar works are presented, along with historical and critical notes.

Written in the French organ/ toccata style (in the style of Mulet's Thou Art the Rock), this is a joyful setting of a popular Christmas classic. While not easy, this piece is not outside the reach of the average organist who may have experience with this style or with standard French literature. This challenging and rewarding selection is a showstopper for a Christmas organ concert, or a wonderful postlude for Christmas Eve services. New product for the week of October 1st, 2012.
