An organ recital in progress: part 88

Dear SMM Community,
 

The next part of my online organ recital is here, and I hope that you enjoy it. I offer up these musical meditations as part of our parish efforts to find ways to keep you connected at this time. Recorded on my house organ, the instrument is a musical facsimile of the great 'Father' Willis organ at Salisbury Cathedral.

Today, I present Craig Sellar Lang's Fanfare.


Born in New Zealand, Craig Sellar Lang (1891-1971) was educated in England and studied at the Royal College of Music with Sir Charles Villiers Stanford. Though best-remembered for his Tuba tune, Lang wrote a number of choral works as well in addition to his Fanfare (published in 1961).



With best wishes,
Andrew Adair
Director of Music
