Whiteley, John Scott, arr.
A selection of 20 pieces providing organ voluntaries, postludes and preludes,
and shorter descriptive works
This superb volume comprises a selection of 20 pieces by Charles Villiers
Stanford, the hugely influential composer, conductor, and teacher from the
late-Victorian and Edwardian age. It provides the repertoire-hungry organist
with preludes, postludes, and shorter descriptive works, suitable for either
liturgical or recital use.
Alongside new editions of original organ repertoire, there are newly
commissioned arrangements of selected choral and piano works, exploring a
wide variety of textures and atmospheres. The music reflects Stanford's
lyricism and dramatic flair, as well as his considerable compositional range.
