Description

Arranger: Carson Cooman
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Organ, 3-staff
This exciting set of seven hymn preludes by seven composers from the Philadelphia area emerged as a project to celebrate the 20th anniversary of January JumpStart, an annual day-long convention put on by the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. The hymn tunes were chosen because they appear in almost all hymnals but have fewer published organ settings than many other tunes. The settings vary in character and will provide fresh material for preludes, offertories, and postludes.
