Organ Settings from "The Sacred Harp"

From the 1860 edition of "The Sacred Harp," this remarkable composer/arranger has fashioned a delightful volume of familiar and not-so-familiar early American melodies for the organ. Useful in any number of ways as preludes, offertories, postludes, or perhaps as a concert suite, the uplifting shaped-note hymns shine through as a moving testament to the music of our early American forbearers.
