Petite Piece - Joseph Jongen

Petit Prelude (Aria) - Joseph Jongen

Joseph Jongen is a Belgian composer, organist and educator.  He is probably most well known for his Symphonie Concertante.  The famous organist, Virgil Fox championed it.

I really like his music.  He has a distinctive harmonic language and this piece is one of my favourites.  It comes from an album of his organ works, published by OUP.

The sample set is the new Willis Studio-24 (demo) produces by Silver Octopus Studios.

O God, my strength and fortitude - George Dyson

This is another piece from Variations on Old Psalm-Tunes, book 2. The melody come from the Ravenscroft's Psalter.

Another piece from "Variations on Old Psalm-Tunes". I might perform some more piece from this collection.

He composed a symphony and chamber works but he is most well-known for his choral music.
