Recenzii

All are arranged very effectively - no unnecessary notes - for players at an 'intermediate' standard . . . most of these transcriptions could be very handy for weddings or funerals, as 'fillers', and as short but effective concert items . . . Setchell is a skilful arranger and the pieces would sound well on most church organs. His two-page introduction with notes on the pieces is authoritative and helpful. Highly recommended.
There is a good balance of both reflective and rousing works, with pieces suitable for weddings, funerals, church services and concerts . . . Registration suggestions have been given, which provide enough direction while still allowing the organist to explore what is possible on their instrument. Across the board they are effectively transcribed, sitting nicely under the hands and feet, with enough compositional integrity for the beauty of the music to shine through. I have no hestiation in recommending this book to all organistst as a valuable addition to our repertoire.
