		Jazz Inspirations for Organ 3 Reference: BA9260x For a long time, popular styles have been part of the traditional church organ repertoire and have found their expression in the most varied forms. Following the continuing success of the first two editions in our series Jazz Inspirations for Organ, this is now the third volume which once more expands the selection of suitable pieces. Volume 3 includes a Toccata on the Hanukkah song Ma’oz Tzur (Rock of Ages), arrangements of two standards (On a Clear Day, Twilight World) and a few original voluntaries. Price: £21.50

		Ogden At Your Service Reference: H456x Fifteen new pieces for use within the communion service or other acts of worship. They are suitable both for traditional and electronic keyboard instruments, and may be performed on single or multi-manuals, with the bass played optionally on pedals as desired. There are fanfares and festal voluntaries to accompany the dramatic high-points of the liturgy, as well as tranquil melodies for reposeful moments of meditation and private devotion Price: £5.25


		Ogden Saints on a Spree Reference: H461x Saints on a Spree is a stylish and not altogether reverent fantasy on several popular tunes associated with saintliness. Lively episodes in Latin-American and schmaltzy-waltz mood pull the carpet from under a solemn, hymn-like opening. Things get even more wild when Widor's Toccata from the Fifth Symphony and Brahms's Lullaby put in an appearance. With his usual masterly craftsmanship, Nigel Ogden, leading light-organist and host of long-running Radio 2 series The Organist Entertains, draws all these ideas into a grand and saintly peroration, which will sound as good whether played on an electronic instrument as on a church organ. Price: £3.95

Price: £21.50


Saint Saens Organ Album Reference: 9780193355927x This is a wonderful collection of popular and some less well-known pieces by Saint-Saens arranged for organ by concert organist Martin Setchell.

		Schumann Organ Works Reference: ED9906x Still leading a shadowy existence, Schumann's works for pedal piano are most likely performed on the organ today. This requires, however, that the music is set for the organ in accordance with the instrument's characteristic features and carefully 'arranged'. To mark the 150th anniversary of Schumann's death, the well-known French organist Jean Guillou has adapted all pedal piano works for the organ, adding registration indications: Six Pieces in Canonic Form, Op. 56, Four Sketches for Pedal Piano, Op. 58, Six Fugues on the name BACH, Op. 60. Price: £13.99

		Tchaikovsky Scherzo from Symphony 6 Reference: ED9808x The third movement (Allegro molto vivace) from Tchaikovsky's 'Symphonie pathétique' is - though not specially designated as such - a typical scherzo and, what is more, actually one of the most brilliant orchestral pieces. The French organist Jean Guillou who is an excellent virtuoso in his own right has made it into a magnificent concert piece for organ. An effective encore piece for virtuoso organists! Price: £8.50


		Passiontide & Easter for Organ Reference: BA9210x Bärenreiter’s Organ Wedding Album and Christmas for Organ have proved highly successful editions among fully or semi-professional organists and church musicians.
