Fred J. Cooper Organ Book: Five Compositions for Organ Solo

Commissioned by the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Guild of Organists (AGO), the Fred J. Cooper Organ Book celebrates the tenth anniversary of the Fred J. Cooper Memorial Organ in Verizon Hall at the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia. Five composers from the Philadelphia area were selected to each contribute an accessible brief solo organ work. Each composer received a general guideline for the style of piece they were to write. The results are nicely varied, with opportunities for colorful registrations. Useful for worship and recital use.
