For the present anthology, organ works by largely unknown composers have been selected from the wealth of chorale-based and freely composed organ music of the 19th and early 20th century. The focus is on arrangements of popular, internationally known chorales as well as sacred songs dealing with themes from the End of the Church Year, Fear and Trust, Comfort in God's Love, Death and Eternal Life, and Interment. The pieces are easy to moderate in terms of difficulty and intended to provide the part-time as well as full-time church musician, organist, and school musician with practical and diversified material.
