Amazing Grace

Three movements for organ.
Commissioned in 1987 by the Tacoma, Washington chapter of the American Guild of Organists.
Duration: 10min.

NOTES
The three movements of Amazing Grace are based on motives and phrases of the famous American hymn. The first movement is a homage to Bach's chorale prelude style in which the tune is presented phrase by phrase amidst sections based on sub-motives. The second movement is a fugue with an central episode, and the third is a series of variations on the theme.
